"Women are not small men. This means understanding that everything from our exercise to our nutrition needs to be different for optimal health." -Dr. Stacy Sims
In this enlightening episode of the Well Beyond 40 podcast, I am thrilled to welcome Dr. Stacy Sims, a renowned exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist. Dr. Sims shares her groundbreaking insights on how women over 40 should approach their health, specifically focusing on the critical differences in exercise and nutrition compared to men.
Dr. Sims' journey has been nothing short of inspiring. She has dedicated her career to uncovering the critical distinctions in how women should train and eat, especially as they transition through perimenopause and menopause. This episode dives deep into these gender-specific differences, emphasizing the importance of recognizing that women's bodies respond uniquely to various stimuli.
We discuss the significance of incorporating strength and power-based training into fitness routines to maintain muscle mass and boost metabolic health. Dr. Sims also explains which types of training she recommends for women to reduce the risk of chronic diseases like Alzheimer's by promoting brain health through lactate metabolism.
On the nutrition front, Dr. Sims debunks common myths around fasted workouts and ketogenic diets, stressing the importance of a well-balanced diet rich in fiber and protein. She highlights the essential role of carbohydrates in women's overall health and offers practical advice on managing caloric intake to support weight loss and metabolic efficiency.
Dr. Sims also shares her expert opinion on the benefits of creatine supplementation, particularly for women over 40, to enhance muscle function and overall well-being. Her insights are backed by extensive research and her own experiences, making this episode a treasure trove of valuable information.
Join us for this empowering conversation that will give you actionable strategies to optimize your health and fitness as you navigate life beyond 40. Listen to the full episode now for more transformative insights from Dr. Sims.
