Thank you for this informative interview . I have been listening to Dr. Sims interviews on different platform and with every interview I learn something new 😀 I was super impressed to hear that Dr. Sims has been a vegan while performing at such elite level and for a normal ( not athlete) person like myself at the beginning stages of menopause I really appreciate her input and guidelines 🙌🙌
I appreciate the detailed information about peri-menopause through post-menopause exercise and nutrition. Really good to hear more about how to resistance train at this time.
Thank you! Dr. Sims is truly a superstar in this field - I appreciate her in-depth knowledge and ability to convey important information in a simple, practical way.
I am a guy so normally I will not watch podcasts based only on women but Dr Fitzgerald is so good I watched this one. It's kind of ironic that Dr Stacy Sims says "women are not small men". I am 5'7" and weigh 135 lbs. If I remember correctly Dr Fitzgerald is taller than me (maybe that's why she looks like a high fashion model). I will watch everything she posts. She is amazing. I keep her book "YOUNGER YOU " out on my sofa every day.
I’ve watched quite a few interviews with Dr. Sims and I’m always left with one question regarding the heavy (max 6 reps) compound lifting. It can be really hard on the back and joints since we’re likely lifting “too heavy” for our back and joints if we’re talking about a max 6 rep set. How can we build strength in our back, knees, etc. to get to that point of max 6 reps and avoid injury, while still getting the benefits that are mentioned from the max 6 rep set?
But fat loss is helped by Z2, isn’t it? sSome of us need to lose fat. I really love Stacy’s work but I sometimes wonder if she addresses non-elite athletes. Would love to hear from peri and meno women who’ve tried her protocol and saw fat loss results.
