I have a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics and this interview really got me thinking about fight or flight response in the body. It dawned on me that cardio represents training for the flight response, while strength building is training for the fight response. It really makes sense to me how our adrenals would then respond to each type of exercise.
Well , your bachelor's didn't seem to cover that flight or fight is the two sides of the exact same thing! As opposed to rest and digest. There's a lot of pseudo-science and myth in this talk starting with the often-mentioned "adrenal fatigue" which is still not an accepted medical term!
Hello lovecat80 what do you offer in lieu of adrenal fatigue? Was given such a diagnosis and treated by alternative integrative specialists after 18 months of medical leave and traditional physicians and specialists finding no cause for my symptoms that left me unable to work.. Interested in your/ another perspective. Thanks
Perhaps there is something to training fight versus flight but I definitely agree with the comment here that constantly training sympathetic nervous system (fight/flight) while neglecting parasympathetic (rest/digest) nervous system can be a health landslide waiting to happen.
I am 190 I always been 145 my whole life at one point lower than that I've gained over 50 lbs in the last 4 years and now that I am engaged I am wanting more to be healthy again. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx5VQ5nUzHu6i0O5_u7ipyLnCz0lbsSvr0 I am not fat but I am thick and have muscle. I am very close to how you were but a lil smaller but I am so sick people making comments to me like I'm huge or like you said having shorts that used to be so cute on me and now I can't even find a pair to fit me. I used to love shopping now I don't even want to go to the store and if I do I pick the biggest size don't even try it on and deal with it. I went from size 5 to size idk because I don't even want to know the real number. I hate looking at pics of myself now or me before. thank you for your video it's time to make a change.
I’m just now starting to loose weight but that’s how I feel. I use to be called Wonder Woman because I’m so naturally and freakishly strong. Now I just want to be in shape again. It’s less about weight and more about what my body can do. With less weight you are faster and can do more. With more muscles even more. That’s how I feel. Not as much about looks but function. Everyone around seems to only care about how I look.
It’s so great to know that there’s still hope when you’re over 30 to completely change your body, your energy level and your outlook on everything. I feel so good no that I’m working on my health.
one of the most “depressing” things I see in my gym is 40 plus women all in the cardio area or only doing group classes. I can count on my hand how many 40 plus women actually lift regularly at my gym. i wish it was heavily pushed in the 40 plus community and we the generation brainwashed that cardio is the end all be all, Only to realize muscle building is the one thing that can truly fight aging years later.
I have been a dancer for more than 18 years (40 currently), a runner for past 5 years and yoga practitioner for 6 years, and exactly 1 year ago I started lifting weights and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. Nothing has changed my body like weight lifting. From skinny, worn out cardio junkie, I've become stronger, I have colour in my cheeks, I am happy not exhausted. Weight lifting is great for your body. Couldn't agree more.
That’s amazing! I’m a long life dancer too. I’m 41 and still dancing ballet, jazz and also pole dancing. I was never a cardio person, weights were always my jam. I see women who only run or do cardio after 40 looking less youthful actually. I’m glad I figured this out very early on. I can say I’m in the best shape ever- pole dancing, intermittent fasting and keto is what’s worked for me. Pole dancing combines strength, endurance and flexibility. It’s so hard to plateau cause there are literally thousands of pole tricks to learn. It’s been a godsend during covid- I have a dance studio at home.
I remember I took a weight training course in college and remember my professor told me that when women are working out they should start their workout with weights 1st and cardio 2nd. I asked why and he said unlike me, it activate certain hormones and also give them more energy to last longer in cardio mode.
I’m jusssst learning this now after years of working out cardio first then weights. This will be good for me bc I’m not very strong and I’m skinny fat loool 😭
I was diagnosed with PCOS had no periods so many issues hormone wise it was horrible I got my personal trainer we do a lot of strength training and incorporate cardio in here and there LET ME TELL YOU I get my period by myself my body is normal again I’m happy my hormones are in check amazing what change my life has become
@@NoorVatsalaBharti I'm not familiar with that, but my common sense is saying no. Strengthening muscles makes them tougher and harder which I would guess does the opposite.
I definitely feel the same way too when strength training. I do both cardio and strength, but I feel better after strength. I guess I get more of an endorphin rush or something.
i love to weight train 3 times a week, walk daily, play sports, and eat a lot :-) for the first time in my life, i love my figure. yes to weight training!!!!!!!!
I’m an anesthesiologist. Too often doctors sound complicated and boring when presenting topics to the general public. She knows her stuff and and talks about it in an easily understandable manner. Great stuff😊. I was a lifetime runner until about 10 years ago when I seriously started lifting weights. I feel much much better . I am now 55 years young
Bravest, most candid interview about why strength training can’t be skipped even if I prefer how I feel running until I get sore and can’t - skip to 19 min at video and listen to the importance of glutes to support the back and how a little tummy fat supports estrogen (22% fat at least). She also talks about fatty liver and inflammation. Wow.
Watching this in 2022, great interview. I love Dr. Tyna and her sound advice! She predicted the zombie apocalypse in this....started following her during the pandemic. Her knowledge and way of delivering her message is fearless and much needed. Thank you for featuring her Mike!
I’m so impressed with this lady! She’s beautiful, like seriously looks 20 years younger than her age. She’s super educated. I literally am gonna take note to every point she’s making.
@Nörmchen van Vörmchen sorry but am disagree again 😉 😄 this lady is smart, competent and just nice looking exactly her actual age, NOT one day younger - let's be objective 😉🧐
"I want to lose weight, no you want to gain strength " wow, mind blown! Great shift from negative to positive thinking!!!! Thank you. This will be my new self talk belief.
I used to rely on caffeine and running for "energy" in the mornings. About 2 months ago I lowered my caffeine intake to little to none and started crossfit 3 weeks ago, thanks to a friend. And I feel so good. Like I feel energetic, happier, lively, handle stress better, confident and my body feels stronger. It has definitely been helping to rebuild my confidence.
Crossfit has been a game changer for me too. The intensity of a wod gets me in the zone and flow of work that i get into when i run, but it is really less taxing on my articulations.
This motivated me i drink coffee and then I say I’m going to workout but coffee makes me jittery and distracts me so I don’t end up working out . now I workout more without the caffeine. Also I know caffeine is bad for hormones
I gave up cardio and hit weights several times a week. I’m over 40, and I LOVE lifting heavy. I feel so sexy afterwards and I look youthful. Go for it ladies..
I have bad arthritis and I started lifting weights and I can say that all my pain went away. I fell off for about 3 yrs and gained 80 lbs and my arthritis got worse, I was not able to sleep and my hormones were shot. I’m going back to this process. Thank you so much for doing this video, I have to agree with what you’re doing since I’ve experienced. I was in the best shape of my life.
I am 57 old female, started running over ten years ago at the begining of my menopause, not overly huge distances but approx 8-10 km 3 times per week and around 3 years ago started weight training. I do total body strenght training and because i dont really run too much in the summer heat i do prefer the strenght training with the weights 2-3 times per week and loving it.
I used to run and never was in good shape. Then I strengthened trained. Wow. I leaned up and toned up like never before. Running was also bad for my joints.
I’m so glad you discovered the benefits of weight lifting vs cardio. I’ve yet to see a runner with a body I’d aspire to. I’m a trained dancer, pole dancer and weight lifter. Running was never in my repertoire- it just hurts imo and is very boring. Dance allows me to hit goals every day- and at 41 I don’t think I’d be in the shape I’m in if I only did cardio.
Giovanna Aguilar unreal how a seemingly healthy activity can cause issues such as posture and hip pain. You would think as a dancer that also rings true. If anything, my posture and back pain in better than ever! Cheers to your new fitness regimen!
The same scenario. Running and doing yoga. When I discovered before 3 years gym and weights workouts, my body completely changed. As a women I really had bias toward it. 🦋
I am so happy you mentioned undereating. My sister and I and a few friends did a bootcamp years ago where we got nutrition and personal training and my sister didn't lose any weight or fat and the trainers accused her of sneaking extra food or whatever and she felt so insulted, she said fuck your program, its not working. And she was right, I lived with her back then and we ate together. So she did the training but quite the food plan and she suddenly started losing weight, losing fat and gaining muscle. And I swear she ate more of everything, carbs, meat, veggies and that's what worked for her. She was undereating for her body and nobody believed her. All the trainers and nutrion experts there acted like all women are the same and with this height and weight you should have certain results with their plan but we are not robots. Now we all just eat whatever we think is healthy. When you cut out the obvious unhealthy foods like fastfoods and candy, and the packaged foods like frozen dinners, you are already doing good. We just eat whole foods and you eat what feels enough for you. if you can weight you just reduce portion size of your carbs. I find this the easiest way to live healthy. We also realized weight training combined with cardio works so much better then just cardio.
I'm 30 and have been powerlifting and a plant-based vegan for the better part of 5 years, and I require around 2,300+ calories per day to stave off atrophy and keep the consistent growth. I trended toward the anorexic and skinny-love mindset in high school because we were poor and had very little food. As I became an adult, I struggled to budget food appropriately and it always came last on the list. Now, I am super educated on body science, plant-based nutrition and hormone regulation and it's all so much easier to manage. I'm excited to maintain this 22% bf forevaaaaa. YOU CAN DO IT!
Layara Siqueira I eat plant based and I still have a hard time limiting calories probably because I eat nuts, seeds, and avocados. Oats are somewhat high in calories as is brown rice, quinoa and teff grain/seed. I can easily consume or exceed 2500 calories a day so I really have to watch it.
A M - great info! I am almost 50 and have lifted on ann off for years and want to get in shape. I also want to do the mostly plant based diet, are there any books you would recommend for plant based and lifting for women? Thank you❤️
As a Fitness Professional, I LOVED LOVED LOVED this interview. I LOVE the science, terminology and medical details shared here. This was so exciting to watch.
I love all your interviews Mike! I used to be very inactive and my blood test results showed underactive thyroid. I joined the gym at the same time and six weeks later my thyroid hormones levels went back to normal and have been normal ever since. Strength training has helped me as a woman in so many ways!
Wonderful interview!!!! This is EXACTLY what I needed to hear at this point in my fitness routine after age 50. Funny how my 23 yr old son just tonight was telling me the SAME thing about weight lifting and losing body fat! Guess it's a good sign for me to increase my weights and do less cardio ~ YEAH!
Love this! I made a medieval ( decorated) gym in my garage 2 years ago. I lift, walk, and rebound. I kayak a few times a month. Every 6 months i get my blood work done for the past 4 years. My hormone profile is amazing!
Thank you for the info! I was prediabetic, I started weight training and did my best to cut out sugar, but for the most part I didn’t limit myself on my diet. I often times still ate what I wanted (just in smaller proportions) and about 4 months later did a blood test and found that my A1c levels were back to normal. I also found that my monthly cycle started to become more regular. I completely attribute that to weight training and lifting! Thank you for getting this information out there.
Idrissa Morehouse Actually humans are designed to run for a long time and to outrun their much faster prey until the animal collapses due to less sufficient temperature regulation than we humans have :)
yeah not quite... we're actually endurance hunters, we stalked prey for so long they would drop dead from exhaustion. We can't outrun many creatures in nature, but we're exceptional long-distance travellers
precisely.the first marathon runner was a battle survivor who had to cover the distance to bring the news.he died on completion of the mission..most greeks still feel amazed with the hype fitness commercialised sports version of the day...so far away from the spirit of marathon
This just reinforced my desire to focus more on strength training. I just want to enjoy working out and feeling good and if it balances my hormones then thats evem better.
31:00 “basically cooking from the inside” was a very helpful phrase for me to hear. I think I’ve been living in a progressively more inflammatory state, ever since living in a very very high-stress and sedentary/junk food-fueled state. Now it has become harder to avoid inflammation and exhaustion. If I look at this as “cooking from the inside,” I may feel more driven to immediately find a path to healing,
I love this so much. I started weight training a month ago and really love it. I combine it with my Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. As someone who has never been into running and has struggled with running, I really appreciate Dr. Moore saying that not everyone is built to run. I always thought I was broken. This made me feel a lot better.
I had so much tenderness on my hip bones - I didn’t know what the cause was. I started lifting weights a few months ago and just realized after watching this that my pain is completely gone! So interesting! Also i didn’t know that you could reverse insulin resistance with weight training. Great video!
There is good evidence for a balance of strength training, adequate sleep, stress mgmt, purpose, but eating more fat than needed can cause insulin resistance . Balance = www.lifestylemedicine.org Also youtube jykines is Jeff Young a great kinesthesiologist
Finding something that's fun for me is what keeps me going with fitness. Pole fitness seriously helped increase my strength, I also do some home workouts with dumbbells and kettlebells (approx 4 times a week) and I walk a lot everyday :) Fitness is amazing for mental clarity and I dont think I'd be a very happy person without it!
Thank you for sharing this fantastic professional woman' wealth of knowledge with us. Older women are the most prolific , useful and covertly powerful and financially resilient in the World. Therefore, to aim your interviews for us is wise. Thank you.
Out of the dozens of episodes I have watched, I could relate to this interview the most. After cycling over 32,000 miles last year, I became so unhealthy: high body fat, symptoms that point to CFS and adrenal fatigue, inflammation, wacked out hormones, etc... I've been searching everywhere to find answers, I even bought and read your book (it was a bit complicated for a non-medical person). The past six months I've completely cleaned up my diet cycling between keto and paleo with short and long fasting. Weight lifting six days a week and HIIT a few times a week. Progress has been slow yet all signs of CFS have disappeared and my lean body mass has increased. So I can testify that all that Dr Tyna is saying is absolutely true! Especially since I am 56 years old with a host of old injuries and no pain. I still have stomach bloating and inflammation even while taking probiotics and a ton of supplements. I'm not sure if the supplements are part of the problem, could they be? I have yet to find a functional medicine doctor in my area. If you have time to answer this question I would appreciate it, Mike. Thank you
I'm by no means doctor, but just a kind reminder that you might want to watch your salt intake if you workout that much, I was kind of in the same shoes as yours (fatigue for absolutely no reason) and increasing salt intake completely cures it
Alicia Searvogel same this is happening to me am 56 and I see the change this year.I exercise everyday walk at least 8 miles each day and my body fat is so high! I’m considered a skinny fat person.
Love this content. I'm a lifter and grew my glutes significantly in the last 3 years. Hip thrusts and hip abductors are the best for the booty especially if you don't want to engage or grow your quads (if they're already very muscular). I hip thrust 200-220 lbs (worked my way up to this weight) and hip abductors for rounding the hips and widening them (265 and then a set of 220- and do that 3 times). The key is to overwork the muscles so go heavy especially since these are big muscle groups and can take a lot! Progressive overload is key to growing a muscle group.
The entire world need to see this interview. I am blessed to have seen this and as a sign that I have been going in the right direction. Thank you both
"...to eliminate artificial sweeteners.. neurotoxins...." Amen. I quit refined sugars >5 years ago. Fruits and honey are more than enough sweetness. All that Dr. Moore says here absolutely resonates. I found this video as i am about to begin weight training for the first time in years and found this to be quite supportive, thank you! Rebecca in Oregon.
I appreciate the fact that she brought up: chronic under eating, how cardio impacts the body vs weight lifting .. deff will look up strength training exercises now.. I’m 5’0” 97 pounds and been this same size since high school.. always had a feeling that running was no good when I felt like crap after and used yoga and stretching to feel better after lol
this guest is a delight. I am sixty and this information was incredibly valuable. I start to actually understand what exercise is making me healthier. I also really enjoyed her energy. thank you
I wish they would show us a before and after picture to see how much she changed with her lifestyle change. I saw this video a while ago and again today and it reminded me of a few things. I agree with everything she says. The medical point of view is great, it really teaches us how many more benefits beside muscle growth are being achieved by lifting. I love lifting and have been lifting for more than twenty years, I’m glad I started young.
Imagine listening to this Again during the pandemic in which doctors and research scientists are talking about interlukin 6 and the cytokine storm (inflammatory) as our body response to covid19. Working out can lead us to an anti-inflammatory response to build not just muscle strength but better immune system.
Ladies I'd like to share my experience and hope this helps but let me tell you how I feel weight training has helped me in the last month! So usually a week before my period starts I feel so tired, moody and crave carbs and eat, eat and eat. But this week has dramatically been different!! I have energy, I've had one or two cravings but it's very minimal, I have continued to workout through PMS which in the past seemed impossible. I don't feel as bloated but the 'depressive' state (part of pms) is near to none. Today I kept thinking to myself like wow, pms is not so bad this time around! I even checked my pms tracker a couple of times to see if I was really nearing my period. A couple of months ago Ive looked into vitamins and pills to minimize pms symptoms but honestly tonight I feel like I've found my answer. This video popped up just now to confirm what I've been thinking these past few days!! Also, body feels toned and lean. I wish I can share this with many other women out there!
I always doing cardio and never got fit... But since strength training omg my body has transformed!!!!!!!!! Now I'm a addicted. It's not a real workout without weights 💪
I started lifting when I was 14. I got really serious when I was 46. After 2 years I lost all the weight and didn't have any cellulite. I have big muscles. I used a gradual increase in weights over time. That way I never get sore. Gain without pain and NO injuries. As far was diet goes I eat fruit, veggies and meat. I avoid processed foods particularly sugar. I use ballet exercises and swimming to lengthen the muscles for a leaner look. At my best I was 5'3",150lbs., wearing a size 6. It is not about how much you weigh because muscle weighs more than fat. I use the arc trainer after weight lifting for cardio. I go real easy and every 5 minutes I do a hit for 15 seconds. I am up to 35 mins. Weight lifting is great. I am women of 63 and I am so glad I started lifting at 14.
If you are post menopausal and lift heavy, know that your tissue pelvic region will be thinner due to the decrease in estrogen, and keep up with those kegals, engage your pelvic girdle whenever you engage your ab muscles. Like you are zipping up from the bottom up. If you don't, you can end up with organ prolapse which is no joke, and difficult to rehab.
I know that everyone recommends a trainer. But, as a mom of 3 little boys, moderately active, I recently discovered the power of strength training - at home with water bottles, I don't have dumble weights. The main reason I do it with what I have is the after-effects, I have more energy and good mood for my boys. I can lift them easily and my effort resilience has increased. I hope i can do this at home on my own, cause everywhere I see just people going to gym with a trainer and that for me is not an option. Thank you for such motivational discussion. Also, since I gave birth to kids, my lower back pain (from office work) has disappeared because I am lifting them all day long, that's the only explanation I found.
I started weight training for the first time in my 50's I always did cardio in the past and now that I am lifting I feel so good I have been feeling that zen like feeling and have been trying to explain to people how I feel I did not know it was a thing until now I will always lift weights I am now addicted.
Great interview! I've been lifting heavy for over 6 years and I do have large muscles. Some of us do gained quite a bit. I definitely have grown, muscularly, out of half of my wardrobe. I probably should tone down on the heavy cardio since I'm not losing belly fat from it anyway. I too live with chronic illness and autoimmune disorders and it's hard to know what is right sometimes.
I have watched this video three times over a 5 year period. The first time: thought I understood it fine. The second time: realized I missed some key info. The third time after much experimentation in tuning diet and exercise: mind blown! Thanks for sharing info even if we sometimes have to learn it the hard way for it to make sense.
Carnivore diet to get rid of immune diseases. Absolutely worked for our whole family. Now we are strength training as well: dad, mom, two teenaged boys. No more chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, psoriasis, bad acne (respectively).
I would love to see an episode on Ashtanga yoga, which requires a lot of strength training and another episode on best ways to manage hypermobility please and thank You again for your awesome work 🙏🙏🙏
+Lala K Winner of a video, I been tryin to find out about "strength training for girls" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Seyliana Strength Salgado - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my neighbour got excellent success with it.
I absolutely loved this interview. I'm just into my first week of really focusing on weight training (I've been going to the gym for years but haven't really pushed myself). This has definitely inspired me.
I made the connection, without researching, that my migraines were connected to hormonal shifts. As a runner, they persisted. It wasn’t until I incorporated strength training into my fitness routine, that I began to experience fewer and fewer migraines. I’m down to maybe 1 or 2 a year! It has further encouraged me to lift!
This helps me so much! I’ve been obsessed with loosing my stomach for years and let it hold me back so much with even dating :( it’s not even that big we just had such a gross diet culture take over! Glad that tide is changing. Knowing that my body needs the extra little pooch makes me so happy. Switching my mindset from loosing to gaining is so helpful!! Thank you!! 💕
I started watching this video months ago - not sure why I didn't finish it. In the last few months (of sitting around and not working out), I have developed much pain in my hip, one calf and exaserbated an old low back injury. When to an ortho, who did an MRI and wanted to start cortisone shots which I declined. Went to my primary dr, who gave me a Rx for Cymbalta coz he thinks I may have fibromyalgia (coz I'm in pain and very fatigued). I told all this to my trainer and she said I need to strengthen my glutes and core. I figured I'd try that before I start any Rx, get shots, etc. Today, I watched the remainder of this interview and it makes so much sense. It reinforced my trainer's opinion. I am so pleased I did not start that Rx! Thank you both!
I was totally a skinny fat runner! I have started lifting because it really makes me so much better. I did suffer adrenal burnout because of running for so many years. This was an awesome interview!
I do cardio because I enjoy it and it is a form of exercise I will maintain throughout my life. I have tried so hard to lift consistently and I just hate it. My motto is that the movement you will actually stick with is ultimately the best. 🤷🏼♀️
It's nice to hear somebody who is autoimmune. Exercise definitely improved my condition as well as being really careful about what I eat. The brain fog is at a minimum, my pain level has decreased significantly, and my stomach has heavily outnumbered bad days with good days.
Oh yeah. This is it! I'm 5'6" and 109 lbs and I feel like trash. I don't like to eat and I need to exercise to get an appetite. I felt great the weeks I lifted, but had no idea what to do? I got sad and stopped and now I feel more sad. This motivates me to try again and also prioritize eating and sleeping. I forget that I need time and sustenance to heal in between.
I hate hate cardio I would rather go outside and trail run or hike, weights is amazing!! I had postpartum depression and anxiety, started weight lifting and my emotions totally changed it was insane I mentally need it!
I’m 33 and I’ve had a hard time sticking to exercise because the mainstream media sells you the idea that you have to be skinny to feel good, don’t quite enjoy feeling like I’m dying nor starving. Never questioned why but this video made something click in me. I love fighting, I enjoy releasing energy through punching and kicking, I might have realized that I hate cardio because I don’t like running. I actually enjoy standing up for myself, and for my children too. I’m an over eater, I stress eat. I need to push myself to the gym more often thanks to this.
I have a B.S. in Exercise and Sport Science with a concentration in Strength and Conditioning and I TOTALLY agree with everything you have said in this video. All of it is on POINT! Excellent work!
Thank you for this amazing talk and insight into strength training! I absolutely loved every second of listening to Dr. Moore ♥️ I have been resistance training for the past 2 years and all that you said reinforces my commitment and pursuit of health. My continued goal is to keep learning and keeping putting in the work. Your knowledge on this subject is amazing and I hope more people hear you both because these talks and conversations are vital to good health. Interesting factoid, majority of people do not strength train. It’s the missing piece for longevity, health, strength and mind. More doctors and health practitioners like yourselves need to keep sharing the importance of it. 😊👍
I'm 53, ive started to lift weight regularly 3x/wk since i was 29 and I've learned that i have to change the way i work out, the way i see & understand the relations of my workouts, body n food every 5 yrs, so started from 30, 35 etc. Nowadays, I'm doing cardio hitt tabata style, -/+ weights.
a great podcast especially the reference to women 40 plus. Finding strength training influencing women who have solid professional advice about strength training is not easy! Thank you! I'm 59 and have done some light weight work at home - bodyweight and some light dumbbells but really keen to progress this now whilst still enjoying my yoga and some running. Grateful :)
I absolutely loved this interview! It flowed so well. She is extremely knowledgeable and practical. I learned so much and truly enjoyed every bit of information. Thank you!
You can do weight exercise with just your body weight also. My husband has been lifting his toolbox. Get creative :-) You can probably go back to the gym already, anyways.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics and this interview really got me thinking about fight or flight response in the body. It dawned on me that cardio represents training for the flight response, while strength building is training for the fight response.

@@lovecat80 we did learn how the nervous system works in fight or flight. And yes, it is the same part of the nervous system for either response.
Hello lovecat80 what do you offer in lieu of adrenal fatigue? Was given such a diagnosis and treated by alternative integrative specialists after 18 months of medical leave and traditional physicians and specialists finding no cause for my symptoms that left me unable to work.. Interested in your/ another perspective. Thanks
Perhaps there is something to training fight versus flight but I definitely agree with the comment here that constantly training sympathetic nervous system (fight/flight) while neglecting parasympathetic (rest/digest) nervous system can be a health landslide waiting to happen.
I am 190 I always been 145 my whole life at one point lower than that I've gained over 50 lbs in the last 4 years and now that I am engaged I am wanting more to be healthy again. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx5VQ5nUzHu6i0O5_u7ipyLnCz0lbsSvr0 I am not fat but I am thick and have muscle. I am very close to how you were but a lil smaller but I am so sick people making comments to me like I'm huge or like you said having shorts that used to be so cute on me and now I can't even find a pair to fit me. I used to love shopping now I don't even want to go to the store and if I do I pick the biggest size don't even try it on and deal with it. I went from size 5 to size idk because I don't even want to know the real number. I hate looking at pics of myself now or me before. thank you for your video it's time to make a change.
She is in total agreement with Gabrielle Lyon when she says, "You want to gain muscle not lose weight." This is a paradigm shift for me too.
I’m just now starting to loose weight but that’s how I feel. I use to be called Wonder Woman because I’m so naturally and freakishly strong. Now I just want to be in shape again. It’s less about weight and more about what my body can do. With less weight you are faster and can do more. With more muscles even more. That’s how I feel. Not as much about looks but function. Everyone around seems to only care about how I look.
I started lifting at 37. My body has changed so much and I’m mentally stronger
Jess yeah me to I see a lot of changes happened to my body and mind😍
It’s so great to know that there’s still hope when you’re over 30 to completely change your body, your energy level and your outlook on everything. I feel so good no that I’m working on my health.
i was 41
@@FionnghulaThell hire a professional trainer. Very important to learn proper form etc.
You better still be liftin lady.
Please continue to cover topics around 40&up women, hormones, and strength training! Thanks!!!
You go it! Just posted another interview on this topic with Sami Sweeney, check it out: ruclips.net/video/UIlaI-1GNA4/видео.html
Cheers!
Mike
Yes, we need more like these videos bc there is a only a few. 45 or 50 weights training.
Orthorexia. Now I have to worry about worrying about eating healthy. I’ll use that as my excuse next time I see my endo
Yes! We need these information to maintain health. Lots of video are for young people who are in their prime already.
one of the most “depressing” things I see in my gym is 40 plus women all in the cardio area or only doing group classes. I can count on my hand how many 40 plus women actually lift regularly at my gym. i wish it was heavily pushed in the 40 plus community and we the generation brainwashed that cardio is the end all be all, Only to realize muscle building is the one thing that can truly fight aging years later.
I have been a dancer for more than 18 years (40 currently), a runner for past 5 years and yoga practitioner for 6 years, and exactly 1 year ago I started lifting weights and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. Nothing has changed my body like weight lifting. From skinny, worn out cardio junkie, I've become stronger, I have colour in my cheeks, I am happy not exhausted. Weight lifting is great for your body. Couldn't agree more.
That’s amazing! I’m a long life dancer too. I’m 41 and still dancing ballet, jazz and also pole dancing. I was never a cardio person, weights were always my jam. I see women who only run or do cardio after 40 looking less youthful actually. I’m glad I figured this out very early on. I can say I’m in the best shape ever- pole dancing, intermittent fasting and keto is what’s worked for me. Pole dancing combines strength, endurance and flexibility. It’s so hard to plateau cause there are literally thousands of pole tricks to learn. It’s been a godsend during covid- I have a dance studio at home.
I remember I took a weight training course in college and remember my professor told me that when women are working out they should start their workout with weights 1st and cardio 2nd. I asked why and he said unlike me, it activate certain hormones and also give them more energy to last longer in cardio mode.
Yes that’s true and it will help you to burn more calories as well. You’ll also burn through the glycogen and go to fat burn for energy
Awesome! This is helpful ty
I’m jusssst learning this now after years of working out cardio first then weights. This will be good for me bc I’m not very strong and I’m skinny fat loool 😭
I was diagnosed with PCOS had no periods so many issues hormone wise it was horrible I got my personal trainer we do a lot of strength training and incorporate cardio in here and there LET ME TELL YOU I get my period by myself my body is normal again I’m happy my hormones are in check amazing what change my life has become
How long to get your hormones in check, please and thanks.
Elfreem Ross my periods normalized two months after I started training with him and have been normal for over a year I work out 4-5 days a week
but for me, strength training is delaying my period and giving me crazy acne!!!
I always feel so much more grounded and positive when I lift. I totally get what she's saying.
Are there chances of getting lowered organs or issues with stomach muscle slip?
@@NoorVatsalaBharti I'm not familiar with that, but my common sense is saying no. Strengthening muscles makes them tougher and harder which I would guess does the opposite.
I definitely feel the same way too when strength training. I do both cardio and strength, but I feel better after strength. I guess I get more of an endorphin rush or something.
i love to weight train 3 times a week, walk daily, play sports, and eat a lot :-) for the first time in my life, i love my figure. yes to weight training!!!!!!!!
Hey can you tell me what plan you followed?
You can eat a lot as long as the food is nutritious
I’m an anesthesiologist. Too often doctors sound complicated and boring when presenting topics to the general public. She knows her stuff and and talks about it in an easily understandable manner. Great stuff😊. I was a lifetime runner until about 10 years ago when I seriously started lifting weights. I feel much much better . I am now 55 years young
Lol. Yes some doctors boreee me
Bravest, most candid interview about why strength training can’t be skipped even if I prefer how I feel running until I get sore and can’t - skip to 19 min at video and listen to the importance of glutes to support the back and how a little tummy fat supports estrogen (22% fat at least). She also talks about fatty liver and inflammation. Wow.
Watching this in 2022, great interview. I love Dr. Tyna and her sound advice! She predicted the zombie apocalypse in this....started following her during the pandemic. Her knowledge and way of delivering her message is fearless and much needed. Thank you for featuring her Mike!
YES YES YES FINALLY !!!!!!!!!!! Female hormones & fitness, this is sooooooo needed Thank You & keep it coming 🙏
I just started lifting two weeks ago. I’m so calm and in good spirits. I feel great, I love it!
I’m so impressed with this lady! She’s beautiful, like seriously looks 20 years younger than her age. She’s super educated. I literally am gonna take note to every point she’s making.
April D how old is she?
@@rc9015 she is 46 now, so 43 when the interview was taken.
@@euniquemorris1361....and she looks like 43, sorry) 😉
@Nörmchen van Vörmchen sorry but am disagree again 😉 😄 this lady is smart, competent and just nice looking exactly her actual age, NOT one day younger - let's be objective 😉🧐
@@stasiax9498 Ya...she definitely doesn't look like a 23 yr old woman. She definitely looks good for her actual age.
"I want to lose weight, no you want to gain strength " wow, mind blown! Great shift from negative to positive thinking!!!! Thank you. This will be my new self talk belief.
I used to rely on caffeine and running for "energy" in the mornings. About 2 months ago I lowered my caffeine intake to little to none and started crossfit 3 weeks ago, thanks to a friend. And I feel so good. Like I feel energetic, happier, lively, handle stress better, confident and my body feels stronger. It has definitely been helping to rebuild my confidence.
Crossfit has been a game changer for me too. The intensity of a wod gets me in the zone and flow of work that i get into when i run, but it is really less taxing on my articulations.
This motivated me i drink coffee and then I say I’m going to workout but coffee makes me jittery and distracts me so I don’t end up working out . now I workout more without the caffeine. Also I know caffeine is bad for hormones
I gave up cardio and hit weights several times a week. I’m over 40, and I LOVE lifting heavy. I feel so sexy afterwards and I look youthful. Go for it ladies..
Cool comment. I just started at 48. Wish me luck!
I have bad arthritis and I started lifting weights and I can say that all my pain went away. I fell off for about 3 yrs and gained 80 lbs and my arthritis got worse, I was not able to sleep and my hormones were shot. I’m going back to this process. Thank you so much for doing this video, I have to agree with what you’re doing since I’ve experienced. I was in the best shape of my life.
Hello Terri, how are you doing today?
I am 57 old female, started running over ten years ago at the begining of my menopause, not overly huge distances but approx 8-10 km 3 times per week and around 3 years ago started weight training. I do total body strenght training and because i dont really run too much in the summer heat i do prefer the strenght training with the weights 2-3 times per week and loving it.
I used to run and never was in good shape. Then I strengthened trained. Wow. I leaned up and toned up like never before. Running was also bad for my joints.
I’m so glad you discovered the benefits of weight lifting vs cardio. I’ve yet to see a runner with a body I’d aspire to. I’m a trained dancer, pole dancer and weight lifter. Running was never in my repertoire- it just hurts imo and is very boring. Dance allows me to hit goals every day- and at 41 I don’t think I’d be in the shape I’m in if I only did cardio.
MissC I loved to run for the high. And yet I ran miles a day, messing up my posture and hips and knees, to no avail. Weights are great. Love it.
Giovanna Aguilar unreal how a seemingly healthy activity can cause issues such as posture and hip pain. You would think as a dancer that also rings true. If anything, my posture and back pain in better than ever! Cheers to your new fitness regimen!
@@MsAmalia07 yesss! All of this! I love lifting, running messed up my knees.
The same scenario. Running and doing yoga. When I discovered before 3 years gym and weights workouts, my body completely changed. As a women I really had bias toward it. 🦋
Cant believe i get to learn this for free. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
I am so happy you mentioned undereating. My sister and I and a few friends did a bootcamp years ago where we got nutrition and personal training and my sister didn't lose any weight or fat and the trainers accused her of sneaking extra food or whatever and she felt so insulted, she said fuck your program, its not working. And she was right, I lived with her back then and we ate together. So she did the training but quite the food plan and she suddenly started losing weight, losing fat and gaining muscle. And I swear she ate more of everything, carbs, meat, veggies and that's what worked for her. She was undereating for her body and nobody believed her. All the trainers and nutrion experts there acted like all women are the same and with this height and weight you should have certain results with their plan but we are not robots. Now we all just eat whatever we think is healthy. When you cut out the obvious unhealthy foods like fastfoods and candy, and the packaged foods like frozen dinners, you are already doing good. We just eat whole foods and you eat what feels enough for you. if you can weight you just reduce portion size of your carbs. I find this the easiest way to live healthy.
We also realized weight training combined with cardio works so much better then just cardio.
I'm 30 and have been powerlifting and a plant-based vegan for the better part of 5 years, and I require around 2,300+ calories per day to stave off atrophy and keep the consistent growth. I trended toward the anorexic and skinny-love mindset in high school because we were poor and had very little food. As I became an adult, I struggled to budget food appropriately and it always came last on the list. Now, I am super educated on body science, plant-based nutrition and hormone regulation and it's all so much easier to manage. I'm excited to maintain this 22% bf forevaaaaa. YOU CAN DO IT!
Yes!
How do you manage to eat so many calories a day? Any tips?
Layara Siqueira I eat plant based and I still have a hard time limiting calories probably because I eat nuts, seeds, and avocados. Oats are somewhat high in calories as is brown rice, quinoa and teff grain/seed. I can easily consume or exceed 2500 calories a day so I really have to watch it.
How do you eat so much? I need to eat more and I can't!
A M - great info! I am almost 50 and have lifted on ann off for years and want to get in shape. I also want to do the mostly plant based diet, are there any books you would recommend for plant based and lifting for women? Thank you❤️
As a Fitness Professional, I LOVED LOVED LOVED this interview. I LOVE the science, terminology and medical details shared here. This was so exciting to watch.
I see women in the gym at 80-90 years old. They are in the habit of lifting weights and they are staying healthy - it’s amazing
I love all your interviews Mike! I used to be very inactive and my blood test results showed underactive thyroid. I joined the gym at the same time and six weeks later my thyroid hormones levels went back to normal and have been normal ever since. Strength training has helped me as a woman in so many ways!
Wonderful interview!!!! This is EXACTLY what I needed to hear at this point in my fitness routine after age 50. Funny how my 23 yr old son just tonight was telling me the SAME thing about weight lifting and losing body fat! Guess it's a good sign for me to increase my weights and do less cardio ~ YEAH!
Does weight lifting help you lode body fat?
@@electricescape1190 absolutely 💯
Love this! I made a medieval ( decorated) gym in my garage 2 years ago. I lift, walk, and rebound. I kayak a few times a month. Every 6 months i get my blood work done for the past 4 years. My hormone profile is amazing!
Thank you for the info! I was prediabetic, I started weight training and did my best to cut out sugar, but for the most part I didn’t limit myself on my diet. I often times still ate what I wanted (just in smaller proportions) and about 4 months later did a blood test and found that my A1c levels were back to normal. I also found that my monthly cycle started to become more regular. I completely attribute that to weight training and lifting! Thank you for getting this information out there.
MP How long until you see changes in your body?
@@MauraBourgetEntreamigas After about three months or consistent exercise.
M P thanks 😊
M P - So great to hear! ❤️👏🏻👏🏿👏🏽
Awesome!! My brother is prediabetic
This is one of THE BEST interviews I have seen from you. And you have some really great ones!!
The problem is that genetically humans are mostly designed for sudden burst of running -not forced long shifts of running - What a GREAT Guest !!!
I thought humans were uniquely evolved for endurance on foot...
Idrissa Morehouse
Actually humans are designed to run for a long time and to outrun their much faster prey until the animal collapses due to less sufficient temperature regulation than we humans have :)
No??? Pretty sure we're built for long distance running. We are not ambush predators. We're endurance predators. Like wolves.
yeah not quite... we're actually endurance hunters, we stalked prey for so long they would drop dead from exhaustion. We can't outrun many creatures in nature, but we're exceptional long-distance travellers
precisely.the first marathon runner was a battle survivor who had to cover the distance to bring the news.he died on completion of the mission..most greeks still feel amazed with the hype fitness commercialised sports version of the day...so far away from the spirit of marathon
This just reinforced my desire to focus more on strength training. I just want to enjoy working out and feeling good and if it balances my hormones then thats evem better.
Hi! I’m a certified Personal Trainer and I post dumbbell home workouts on my channel if you’re looking for a workout plan!
31:00 “basically cooking from the inside” was a very helpful phrase for me to hear. I think I’ve been living in a progressively more inflammatory state, ever since living in a very very high-stress and sedentary/junk food-fueled state. Now it has become harder to avoid inflammation and exhaustion. If I look at this as “cooking from the inside,” I may feel more driven to immediately find a path to healing,
Ohhh I so needed to hear this! My hormones are all over the damn place after 3 kids. Thank you!
Me too!
Me 3
Same here
I love this so much. I started weight training a month ago and really love it. I combine it with my Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. As someone who has never been into running and has struggled with running, I really appreciate Dr. Moore saying that not everyone is built to run. I always thought I was broken. This made me feel a lot better.
I had so much tenderness on my hip bones - I didn’t know what the cause was. I started lifting weights a few months ago and just realized after watching this that my pain is completely gone! So interesting! Also i didn’t know that you could reverse insulin resistance with weight training. Great video!
Me too, I think this might be very helpful.
There is good evidence for a balance of strength training, adequate sleep, stress mgmt, purpose, but eating more fat than needed can cause insulin resistance . Balance = www.lifestylemedicine.org
Also youtube jykines is Jeff Young a great kinesthesiologist
As a doctor, I tell you, this is one high quality interview!
Finding something that's fun for me is what keeps me going with fitness. Pole fitness seriously helped increase my strength, I also do some home workouts with dumbbells and kettlebells (approx 4 times a week) and I walk a lot everyday :) Fitness is amazing for mental clarity and I dont think I'd be a very happy person without it!
Thank you for sharing this fantastic professional woman' wealth of knowledge with us. Older women are the most prolific , useful and covertly powerful and financially resilient in the World. Therefore, to aim your interviews for us is wise.
Thank you.
Wow I love this comment 😮Something I'm beginning to notice with age. And it starts to be obvious once you pull away from the boob tube...
Out of the dozens of episodes I have watched, I could relate to this interview the most. After cycling over 32,000 miles last year, I became so unhealthy: high body fat, symptoms that point to CFS and adrenal fatigue, inflammation, wacked out hormones, etc... I've been searching everywhere to find answers, I even bought and read your book (it was a bit complicated for a non-medical person). The past six months I've completely cleaned up my diet cycling between keto and paleo with short and long fasting. Weight lifting six days a week and HIIT a few times a week. Progress has been slow yet all signs of CFS have disappeared and my lean body mass has increased. So I can testify that all that Dr Tyna is saying is absolutely true! Especially since I am 56 years old with a host of old injuries and no pain. I still have stomach bloating and inflammation even while taking probiotics and a ton of supplements. I'm not sure if the supplements are part of the problem, could they be? I have yet to find a functional medicine doctor in my area. If you have time to answer this question I would appreciate it, Mike. Thank you
I'm by no means doctor, but just a kind reminder that you might want to watch your salt intake if you workout that much, I was kind of in the same shoes as yours (fatigue for absolutely no reason) and increasing salt intake completely cures it
Alicia Searvogel same this is happening to me am 56 and I see the change this year.I exercise everyday walk at least 8 miles each day and my body fat is so high! I’m considered a skinny fat person.
The probiotics can lead to belly bloat, especially if you have SIBO.
Honestly I was paleo but the only thing that helped me I had to go carnivore if you really want to kill inflammation it's the way to go...
Love this content.
I'm a lifter and grew my glutes significantly in the last 3 years.
Hip thrusts and hip abductors are the best for the booty especially if you don't want to engage or grow your quads (if they're already very muscular).
I hip thrust 200-220 lbs (worked my way up to this weight) and hip abductors for rounding the hips and widening them (265 and then a set of 220- and do that 3 times).
The key is to overwork the muscles so go heavy especially since these are big muscle groups and can take a lot! Progressive overload is key to growing a muscle group.
The entire world need to see this interview. I am blessed to have seen this and as a sign that I have been going in the right direction. Thank you both
"...to eliminate artificial sweeteners.. neurotoxins...." Amen. I quit refined sugars >5 years ago. Fruits and honey are more than enough sweetness. All that Dr. Moore says here absolutely resonates. I found this video as i am about to begin weight training for the first time in years and found this to be quite supportive, thank you! Rebecca in Oregon.
could listen to her all day need to get back in the gym and start lifting thanks for the inspiration!
I appreciate the fact that she brought up: chronic under eating, how cardio impacts the body vs weight lifting .. deff will look up strength training exercises now.. I’m 5’0” 97 pounds and been this same size since high school.. always had a feeling that running was no good when I felt like crap after and used yoga and stretching to feel better after lol
Hi! I’m a certified Personal Trainer and I post dumbbell home workouts on my channel if you’re looking for a workout plan!
I love this interview; it helped me make sense of why I am not losing weight at 49 years of age and weighing in at 222 pounds.
this guest is a delight. I am sixty and this information was incredibly valuable. I start to actually understand what exercise is making me healthier. I also really enjoyed her energy. thank you
I wish they would show us a before and after picture to see how much she changed with her lifestyle change. I saw this video a while ago and again today and it reminded me of a few things. I agree with everything she says. The medical point of view is great, it really teaches us how many more benefits beside muscle growth are being achieved by lifting. I love lifting and have been lifting for more than twenty years, I’m glad I started young.
Imagine listening to this Again during the pandemic in which doctors and research scientists are talking about interlukin 6 and the cytokine storm (inflammatory) as our body response to covid19. Working out can lead us to an anti-inflammatory response to build not just muscle strength but better immune system.
The single most convincing video that had me started lifting weights. Thank you and Dr Tina for bringing these life changing knowledge to people.
This video is my life... summed up. I came across it after I started the lifting journey, and it was just confirmation. I am on the right path..
I agree please more on late 30s and up. This phase is so different and this cleared a lot of confusion.
Ladies I'd like to share my experience and hope this helps but let me tell you how I feel weight training has helped me in the last month! So usually a week before my period starts I feel so tired, moody and crave carbs and eat, eat and eat. But this week has dramatically been different!! I have energy, I've had one or two cravings but it's very minimal, I have continued to workout through PMS which in the past seemed impossible. I don't feel as bloated but the 'depressive' state (part of pms) is near to none. Today I kept thinking to myself like wow, pms is not so bad this time around! I even checked my pms tracker a couple of times to see if I was really nearing my period. A couple of months ago Ive looked into vitamins and pills to minimize pms symptoms but honestly tonight I feel like I've found my answer. This video popped up just now to confirm what I've been thinking these past few days!! Also, body feels toned and lean. I wish I can share this with many other women out there!
I always doing cardio and never got fit... But since strength training omg my body has transformed!!!!!!!!! Now I'm a addicted. It's not a real workout without weights 💪
Everything she said makes complete sense.
I started lifting when I was 14. I got really serious when I was 46. After 2 years I lost all the weight and didn't have any cellulite. I have big muscles. I used a gradual increase in weights over time. That way I never get sore. Gain without pain and NO injuries. As far was diet goes I eat fruit, veggies and meat. I avoid processed foods particularly sugar. I use ballet exercises and swimming to lengthen the muscles for a leaner look. At my best I was 5'3",150lbs., wearing a size 6. It is not about how much you weigh because muscle weighs more than fat. I use the arc trainer after weight lifting for cardio. I go real easy and every 5 minutes I do a hit for 15 seconds. I am up to 35 mins. Weight lifting is great. I am women of 63 and I am so glad I started lifting at 14.
This was super inspiring and interesting! Makes me want to get my ass back at the gym ASAP 💪
If you are post menopausal and lift heavy, know that your tissue pelvic region will be thinner due to the decrease in estrogen, and keep up with those kegals, engage your pelvic girdle whenever you engage your ab muscles. Like you are zipping up from the bottom up. If you don't, you can end up with organ prolapse which is no joke, and difficult to rehab.
Your natural estrogen levels don't decrease, your testosterone increases - not the same thing.
Of course you don't start with the heaviest weights, you build up to it over time.
BHRT is important to avoid POPs (pelvic organ prolapses).
I know that everyone recommends a trainer. But, as a mom of 3 little boys, moderately active, I recently discovered the power of strength training - at home with water bottles, I don't have dumble weights. The main reason I do it with what I have is the after-effects, I have more energy and good mood for my boys. I can lift them easily and my effort resilience has increased. I hope i can do this at home on my own, cause everywhere I see just people going to gym with a trainer and that for me is not an option. Thank you for such motivational discussion. Also, since I gave birth to kids, my lower back pain (from office work) has disappeared because I am lifting them all day long, that's the only explanation I found.
EXCELLENT interview and not over my head!!! Really enjoyed this. Thanks a million. Please deliver more content like this Mike
I am 74. Is strength training healthy for me at 74?
I started weight training for the first time in my 50's I always did cardio in the past and now that I am lifting I feel so good I have been feeling that zen like feeling and have been trying to explain to people how I feel I did not know it was a thing until now I will always lift weights I am now addicted.
Very scientific way to say, having a weak ass will wreck your health. Jokes aside, really good info.
Totally
Great interview! I've been lifting heavy for over 6 years and I do have large muscles. Some of us do gained quite a bit. I definitely have grown, muscularly, out of half of my wardrobe. I probably should tone down on the heavy cardio since I'm not losing belly fat from it anyway. I too live with chronic illness and autoimmune disorders and it's hard to know what is right sometimes.
Who is watching this during the pandemic (while the gyms are closed) and trying to find a way to keep from going crazy!
Good luck 🍀 friend👍🏻
indeed.coz a healthy mind requires a healthy body..the mind brain even psyche if u wish are parts of the body if not the very essence of the body
I have watched this video three times over a 5 year period. The first time: thought I understood it fine. The second time: realized I missed some key info. The third time after much experimentation in tuning diet and exercise: mind blown!
Thanks for sharing info even if we sometimes have to learn it the hard way for it to make sense.
Carnivore diet to get rid of immune diseases. Absolutely worked for our whole family. Now we are strength training as well: dad, mom, two teenaged boys. No more chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, psoriasis, bad acne (respectively).
I would love to see an episode on Ashtanga yoga, which requires a lot of strength training and another episode on best ways to manage hypermobility please and thank You again for your awesome work 🙏🙏🙏
This is a fantastic video - so many awesome nuggets of information about the benefits of weight lifting. Great interview and brilliant information!
+Lala K Winner of a video, I been tryin to find out about "strength training for girls" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Seyliana Strength Salgado - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my neighbour got excellent success with it.
I absolutely loved this interview. I'm just into my first week of really focusing on weight training (I've been going to the gym for years but haven't really pushed myself). This has definitely inspired me.
I made the connection, without researching, that my migraines were connected to hormonal shifts. As a runner, they persisted. It wasn’t until I incorporated strength training into my fitness routine, that I began to experience fewer and fewer migraines. I’m down to maybe 1 or 2 a year! It has further encouraged me to lift!
Excellent episode 💪🏾 It validated everything I’ve been doing, most of it without knowing all these facts. I did it by instinct, hearing my body.
I never feel more awesome and energize than this pass 5 y..ìve weight lifting since 6 y a go.
This helps me so much! I’ve been obsessed with loosing my stomach for years and let it hold me back so much with even dating :( it’s not even that big we just had such a gross diet culture take over! Glad that tide is changing. Knowing that my body needs the extra little pooch makes me so happy. Switching my mindset from loosing to gaining is so helpful!! Thank you!! 💕
In a different video I saw that the reason we can't loose our belly is because of our weak glutes. So, one more reason to work on those glutes!
I started watching this video months ago - not sure why I didn't finish it. In the last few months (of sitting around and not working out), I have developed much pain in my hip, one calf and exaserbated an old low back injury. When to an ortho, who did an MRI and wanted to start cortisone shots which I declined. Went to my primary dr, who gave me a Rx for Cymbalta coz he thinks I may have fibromyalgia (coz I'm in pain and very fatigued). I told all this to my trainer and she said I need to strengthen my glutes and core. I figured I'd try that before I start any Rx, get shots, etc. Today, I watched the remainder of this interview and it makes so much sense. It reinforced my trainer's opinion. I am so pleased I did not start that Rx! Thank you both!
This is so helpful, I am a skinny /fat 58 year old, and just had a full hip replacement yesterday. This information will help with my recovery.
OMG her point on hot yoga injuries are SPOT ON! LOVE THIS LADY!
Totally get you Doc! Theres nothing like lifting weights. Makes your mind stronger bec. your body is happy.
I was totally a skinny fat runner! I have started lifting because it really makes me so much better. I did suffer adrenal burnout because of running for so many years. This was an awesome interview!
I do cardio because I enjoy it and it is a form of exercise I will maintain throughout my life. I have tried so hard to lift consistently and I just hate it. My motto is that the movement you will actually stick with is ultimately the best. 🤷🏼♀️
It's nice to hear somebody who is autoimmune. Exercise definitely improved my condition as well as being really careful about what I eat. The brain fog is at a minimum, my pain level has decreased significantly, and my stomach has heavily outnumbered bad days with good days.
Oh yeah. This is it!
I'm 5'6" and 109 lbs and I feel like trash.
I don't like to eat and I need to exercise to get an appetite. I felt great the weeks I lifted, but had no idea what to do? I got sad and stopped and now I feel more sad. This motivates me to try again and also prioritize eating and sleeping. I forget that I need time and sustenance to heal in between.
first comment of her… immediately agree it’s a VERY expensive way of working out especially if you are busy and are needed
Such a great interview! Started lifting last years and am feeling the best at age 35!
Wow! awesome video. You are always interviewing top-notch, intelligent, good nature health professionals. Thanks a lot!
I hate hate cardio I would rather go outside and trail run or hike, weights is amazing!! I had postpartum depression and anxiety, started weight lifting and my emotions totally changed it was insane I mentally need it!
I’m 33 and I’ve had a hard time sticking to exercise because the mainstream media sells you the idea that you have to be skinny to feel good, don’t quite enjoy feeling like I’m dying nor starving. Never questioned why but this video made something click in me. I love fighting, I enjoy releasing energy through punching and kicking, I might have realized that I hate cardio because I don’t like running. I actually enjoy standing up for myself, and for my children too. I’m an over eater, I stress eat. I need to push myself to the gym more often thanks to this.
I have a B.S. in Exercise and Sport Science with a concentration in Strength and Conditioning and I TOTALLY agree with everything you have said in this video. All of it is on POINT! Excellent work!
Ya sir please share with us about herbs
Do you know if it increases testosterone? I love lifting weights and my hormonal problem is due to excess of testosterone so im afraid
Oh wow! She must be so grateful to have your approval.
Thank you for this amazing talk and insight into strength training! I absolutely loved every second of listening to Dr. Moore ♥️
I have been resistance training for the past 2 years and all that you said reinforces my commitment and pursuit of health. My continued goal is to keep learning and keeping putting in the work. Your knowledge on this subject is amazing and I hope more people hear you both because these talks and conversations are vital to good health.
Interesting factoid, majority of people do not strength train. It’s the missing piece for longevity, health, strength and mind. More doctors and health practitioners like yourselves need to keep sharing the importance of it. 😊👍
I really enjoyed watching this! This was a very informative interview!
Love hearing that!
Thanks for tuning in,
Mike
I'm 53, ive started to lift weight regularly 3x/wk since i was 29 and I've learned that i have to change the way i work out, the way i see & understand the relations of my workouts, body n food every 5 yrs, so started from 30, 35 etc. Nowadays, I'm doing cardio hitt tabata style, -/+ weights.
How did RUclips know I needed to see that at this exact moment? Fantastic interview, knowledge is truly power. Thank you for posting!!
a great podcast especially the reference to women 40 plus. Finding strength training influencing women who have solid professional advice about strength training is not easy! Thank you! I'm 59 and have done some light weight work at home - bodyweight and some light dumbbells but really keen to progress this now whilst still enjoying my yoga and some running. Grateful :)
I absolutely loved this interview! It flowed so well. She is extremely knowledgeable and practical. I learned so much and truly enjoyed every bit of information. Thank you!
too bad all the weights are sold out everywhere because of coronavirus.... hope to get a heavier set when supplies are available
Sheri Keys Amazon sells weights
Really? 😑 The gyms are open.
@@SR77736 not everyone feels safe to go the gym. That's one of the worst places to go actually.
i.e.presents Amazon is either sold out or selling 5 lbs dumbbells for $100.00....it's been this way for months
You can do weight exercise with just your body weight also. My husband has been lifting his toolbox. Get creative :-) You can probably go back to the gym already, anyways.
i have watched this three times... she is great!
Awesome tips. Thanks muchly. I just hired a trainer and started my journey thanks to this.
This was Gold! I love lifting! I thought it was just me, it feels much better than cardio. And the sculpting result is awesome.
Alright! I’m onboard with weight training!
