In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Orlena challenges everything you thought you knew about women's fitness and nutrition. Drawing from Dr. Stacey Sims' groundbreaking research, she reveals why women need to stop following fitness advice based on male-focused studies. Discover why your morning fasting routine might be sabotaging your progress, learn the science-backed truth about protein timing for women, and understand how to properly build strength during menopause.
You'll learn why traditional exercise research has failed women, the surprising truth about early morning cortisol levels, and the game-changing approach to weight training that could transform your results. Whether you're navigating perimenopause, looking to maintain muscle mass, or simply trying to optimize your fitness routine, this episode provides the female-specific guidance you've been missing.
Perfect for women who are tired of one-size-fits-all fitness advice and ready to embrace evidence-based strategies that work with their biology, not against it. Press play to discover why everything from your protein shake timing to your workout intensity might need a female-focused upgrade.
