    Ep 86: There's more to gut health than what we eat

    In this episode, Ashleigh speaks with Alison Mars, a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Cookbook author of The Paleo Gut Healing Cookbook, about managing Hashimoto's Thyroiditis and PCOS; how fertility, pregnancy, and parenthood can impact gut health; and all the things that play into our gut health that aren't food (hint, there's a lot). We dive into mental health practices, optimizing circadian rhythm, better and worse fitness routines, and definitively answer the question, "does walking count as exercise?" This conversation is less about "here's exactly what you eat to heal your gut," and more a chat about how to LIVE in a way that promotes optimal digestion. It's a fun one, and I hope you enjoy it.  Learn more about Alison and get some healthy recipes at FoodbyMars.com.  Subscribe to her weekly newsletter and get a FREE 20-minute Paleo/AIP Meal Prep Plan right here.

    Ep 84: Let's talk about coregasms

    In this episode, Ashleigh and Rachel answer questions from listeners: What are coregasms? How and why do they happen in the gym, and if they're happening, how can you stop them so you don't hurt yourself during a heavy back squat? (yikes!) What is a deload week? How do you program them properly? When do you know you need one, and what does it consist of? If you had money allocated specifically for health or fitness improvement, what would you spend it on?

    Ep 83: PCOS and Pumpkin Spice

    In this episode, we discuss training and nutrition for women with PCOS, and also how to think about food cravings during your period; we discuss one of the biggest food-related challenges for women in losing fat that isn't talked about, and we give our unsolicited opinion this season's favorite flavor, pumpkin spice. Wanna tell us what you think about pumpkin spice, or anything else? Send your questions, topic ideas, and feedback to musclescience4women@gmail.com Shoutout to our show sponsor Active Stacks! They make high-quality collagen peptide powder and beef protein powder in two delicious flavors, chocolate and vanilla. They're made with cocoa and vanilla paste, not that unexplained "natural flavoring" you see listed everywhere, so it tastes better and mixes well into your protein shakes or baking. The chocolate flavor literally tastes like chocolate milk - it's a great way to get a collagen boost in your daily diet.

    Ep 82: Does Your Uterus Get In the Way?

    Who is the best and most well-rounded female athlete? What does it mean to be a well-rounded athlete anyway? Why are some "fitness" standards different for men and women (it must be the uterus...) Is cardio really "out" now, or are there types of cardio that can still be beneficial for building muscle and losing fat? Does exercise count as "therapy"? Ashleigh and Rachel discuss all these topics and more - plus, we have some more music playlist ideas for you. We hope you have as much fun listening to this episode as we did making it!

    Ep 80: We design the optimal human meal | Whey causing skin issues?

    In this episode Rachel and Ashleigh are asked by a special listener to design the "perfect human meal;" they talk about what to do if whey protein and whey products are causing skin issues; and they chat about folic acid supplementation for women who may look to become pregnant - can you get enough from your food? Should pregnant women really be eating liver? What's the difference between folic acid and folate?  If you have any comments, feedback or questions for the podcast, send them to musclescience4women@gmail.com For more information on the folic acid supplementation question, we recommend you give Lily Nichols, RDN a follow on social media and her website can be found here: https://lilynicholsrdn.com/?s=folic+acid Here's an article from her website on folate/folic acid: https://lilynicholsrdn.com/?s=folic+acid Shoutout to our show sponsor Active Stacks!

    Ep 79: Lessons learned from a bodybuilder who races ultra-marathons

    Today Ashleigh chats with personal trainer, nutritionist, best-selling author, and host of The Brian Keane Podcast about endurance racing as a bodybuilder; strength training for women; the biggest misconceptions about sustainable health; and much more. While we mostly talk to women, about women's issues, sometimes it's enlightening to learn about the similarities (and different perspectives) of coaches with different backgrounds than us, so we hope you find this one interesting! In addition to helping men and women achieve their fitness goals, Brian is a bodybuilder, a dad, and he trains for and has completed some of the world's most grueling endurance challenges, such as six back-to-back marathons through the Sahara desert, 230 km through the Arctic, and multiple ultra-marathons, including a 100-mile ultra-marathon in the desert in Nevada.
