Stacy is back!!!! Yes that deserves four exclamation points. If you missed our first sold-out show you might not know that Stacy Sims is an expert exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist specifically for women. Stacy shares the secrets to maintaining muscle and warding off sarcopenia beyond 40.

As hormonal fluctuations occur during perimenopause, the importance of a robust stimulus (heavy weight training) for preserving muscle cannot be overstated. Through ground breaking and exhaustive research, Stacy Sims has illuminated the significance of strength training in countering age-related muscle decline and enhancing cognitive function through improved neural pathways.

In this exclusive session, we discover how heavy lifting is the ultimate tool to stoke your fat-burning metabolism, bolster bone health, build muscle tissue and maintain cardiovascular well-being—essential components for women navigating the transformative stage of menopause.

We talk about training, nutrition, how to build in soul days, mindset, creatine and the importance of sleep.  This episode has all the tools for managing your aging female body with power and choice.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
