| 4/17/26 |  Ep. 82: The effect of exercise training programs on bone mass: A meta-analysis of published controlled trials in pre- and postmenopausal women | A meta-analysis involves a comprehensive and exhaustive literature review of a specific topic with a specific question and involves very strict inclusion and exclusion criteria for the investigations used for review and analysis. This is a great way for researchers to create a generalizable recommendation for a specific population. The purpose of this investigation was to review, using a meta-analysis, the published randomized controlled trials and controlled trials on the effects of ex... | 39m 18s | ||||||
| 3/27/26 | Ep. 81: Position Statement: Exercise Guidelines for Osteoporosis Management and Fall Prevention in Osteoporosis Patients | Ep. 81: Position Statement: Exercise guidelines for Osteoporosis Management and Fall Prevention in Osteoporosis Patients A position statement provides the author(s) stance on a topic based on the sum of all the evidence of a debatable topic. Osteoporosis treatment and management is not one-size-fits-all. Personal history, background, capacities and abilities of each person will differ, resulting in different approaches for combating or preventing bone loss. However, having a defined str... | 41m 59s | ||||||
| 3/17/26 | Ep. 80: The Osteogenic Quantification and Reliability of the Heel Drop and Press up Drop | I call the heel drop exercise the "gateway into impact training." But does it actual meet or exceed the threshold for being osteogenic? Most research will define an impact training exercise that meets or exceeds 3-4 times your bodyweight as osteogenic, meaning it has the capacity to signal the bone for growth. Additionally, impact training and jump training can be less than approachable or do-able for many people. So, can the heel drop fill the void between no impact training and full on jump... | 36m 50s | ||||||
| 3/6/26 | Ep 79: Effect of 6-month high-impact step aerobics and resistance training on BMD and tibial bending strength in sedentary premenopausal women | This was an interesting study done in premenopausal women, ages 20 - 35 years old, during a 26 week long investigation. Three groups were used, a resistance training group, step-aerobics high impact group, and a control group. The resistance training group completed a strength training routine at 65-80% of their 1RM, 3 times per week using the following exercises: leg press, back squat, leg extension, leg flexion, seated calf, standing calf, back extension and abdominal curl. The ... | 36m 36s | ||||||
| 3/5/26 | The Bone Health Blueprint: Updated Trailor | The Bone Health Blueprint is your evidence-based guide to building stronger bones and maintaining independence for life. In every episode, I break down current research on exercise for osteoporosis prevention and bone growth, explain what the findings really mean, and give you practical, approachable strategies you can use immediately in your own fitness routine. As a doctor of exercise physiology with nearly two decades of experience in exercise and bone health, I help you cut through the co... | 1m 53s | ||||||
| 8/4/25 | Ep 78: How Resistance Training and Self-Talk Boost Strength in Older Adults | In this episode, I dive into the research behind an intriguing combo: high-intensity progressive resistance training paired with self-talk. The featured study explores how these two strategies affect muscle strength and functional performance in older adults—and the results are worth paying attention to. I break down what the study found, how self-talk influenced outcomes, and what it all means for designing effective, evidence-based training programs for aging populations. Whether you’re a c... | 34m 17s | ||||||
| 7/24/25 | Ep. 77: Resistance training programs targeting improvements in health outcomes in postmenopausal women | In this episode, I dive into a research review that analyzed the effects of full-body resistance training in postmenopausal women. The article pulls together findings from multiple studies to assess how structured strength training impacts metabolic health, bone density, muscular strength, and overall quality of life. Whether you’re a practitioner, a postmenopausal woman, or simply interested in the science behind strength training, this episode breaks down the evidence in a clear and practic... | 34m 14s | ||||||
| 2/12/25 | Episode 76: Full body approach leads to consistency | Here’s why your split routine isn’t working… Let’s say you decided to do something adventurous and go on an ice fishing trip. You hit up the outdoor store and buy a ton of new equipment, warm clothes, supplies, etc. You jump on the plane and head to somewhere cold with a frozen lake. The day is finally here and you’re out on the ice starting to drill and pick away at making your fishing hole. Brutal work by the way. You finally get to fish and have a decent first day and catch a few fish. You... | 25m 19s | ||||||
| 2/5/25 | Episode 75: Building trust in your body | Let’s talk about trust. Webster will tell you trust is “assured (or guaranteed) reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something OR one in which confidence is placed.” But what if that “one” where confidence is placed is YOU in regards to YOURSELF? Trusting others is one thing while trusting yourself is an entirely different situation. WHY? Because there is no one to blame, no one to fall back on, no one to look to when a change needs made… other than YOURSELF. T... | 23m 15s | ||||||
| 1/29/25 | Episode 74: Progressive overload doesn't have to be linear | Progressive overload, simply stated is doing more work than you’ve done before, strategically over time. It doesn’t have to be linear, and really shouldn’t be. However, when you zoom out there is a trend in the upward direction. Here are a few ways to apply an overload to your current routine… 🔹Gradually adding more weight over time (again, non-linear but the trend line moves upward when you zoom out) 🔹Adding more reps 🔹Adding more sets 👉🏻The 3 above are ways of increasing o... | 21m 46s | ||||||

| 7/10/24 | 73. Expectations and how they may lead you down the wrong path | Expectations can be what gives you an edge, or they can be the limiting factor to achieving your goals. Here is something to consider, are you creating your expectations based on your own reality and experiences? Or are you constructing your expectations around other's experiences and rhetoric? I've found, especially in the world of exercise and fitness, that our expectations of results, time, ability, etc. are not based in reality or the real world for the individual. Why is that? As... | 21m 03s | ||||||
| 6/27/24 | Motivation is a scam | We've all ridden that wave of motivation to complete a project, pass a test, get that promotion. We've especially learned to rely on it when it comes to exercise. On the horse, off the horse, waiting for that drive to be strong enough to put a few solid weeks together. But what if motivation was just a front? A Trojan horse even. Motivation is tied to emotion, and we all know how quickly our emotions change from day to day, minute to minute. And the emotion that drives motivation is FEAR. F... | 18m 37s | ||||||
| 5/9/24 | Progressively overloading through your working sets | Over the last few months I've had many conversations with clients and potential clients where their previous training was typically 3 sets of 15 reps where weight was held constant for the entire workout. This may be more common than I had thought, or maybe it's just because I've never trained that way. I've always started with a lower resistance for maybe 12 reps, then started to drop reps and add weight with each progressing set. Something like a 12x10x8x6 rep scheme over 4 working sets, w... | 20m 43s | ||||||
| 12/4/23 | Finding yourself skipping workouts? Here's why and how you can make that all change. | Your brain is hard wired to keep you safe, to keep you alive. It doesn't necessarily care if you are alive and thriving. You know what I'm talking about... ahem survival mode. Your nervous system is so hard wired for survival that your brain will do everything it can to keep you comfortable and using as little energy as possible. Think about it, how many times have you skipped a workout because the house was warm and cozy, it was dark and dreary outside, your slippers were already on for good... | 15m 17s | ||||||
| 10/4/23 | Keeping fitness simple with Coach Keri | It's easy to fall under the logic of complicated = better/more valuable. When in reality keeping things simple and focusing on consistency and patience tend to be the best recipe for long term success. At some level we all know this, and we play against our human nature as the long game is the most challenging one to play. Keri and I both own our own online fitness businesses and share the perspective of keeping things simple and mastering the basic controllables... Hone in on your current s... | 38m 03s | ||||||
| 8/1/23 | The low-down on rest intervals for single-joint & multi-joint exercises. Hint, there is a difference. | First, let's set the expectation. If you reduce the rest interval between sets of a given workout, your capacity noticably decreases over the course of your working sets. What does get taxed, however, is your aerobic energy system. When rest intervals are lengthened, your ability to produce the desired reps over the course of many working sets is spared which results in a higher training volume. Moral of the story, shorter rest intervals improve your aerobic energy system, longer rest interva... | 32m 42s | ||||||
| 6/30/23 | Season 3, Ep. 9 with Zak Kanary - A garage gym dad doing work! | A dad with 4 kids under 8 years old shares some tangible and actionable advice about life and fitness. Things definitely change after having kids, and shifting expectations, the way things look, and having gratitude for all of it may change the way you approach exercise and movement in your daily life. "This is who we are now" is a simple but powerful statement that Zak shared and how that has been a game changer for not only him, but his entire household. You can let time and kids be your b... | 47m 03s | ||||||
| 6/23/23 | High intensity Low volume versus Moderate intensity High volume, is one better than the other? | Athletes & everyday functioning people have a time, whether it's in season or on vacation/travel, where training time is decreased compared to the typical routine. And with that less training time we start to worry at what point will I start to see decrements in my abilities, things like strength and muscle size? This investigation dives into comparing two groups of training, one using high intensity with low volume training, compared to moderate intensity and higher volume training. The ... | 28m 11s | ||||||
| 5/2/23 | Will squatting past parallel increase muscle size more than squatting to 90 degrees? Relationship between hypertrophy (increase in muscle size) and range of motion. | You've been in the gym where the person next to you is completing half reps of a bicep curl or squat and you wonder, is that helping or hurting? First and fore-most I typically recommend working through a full and available range of motion for every movement. Personally I want to be strong through the entire range, regardless of how little or large of that range I'm using. However, when it comes to hypertrophy, or increase in muscle size, is there an optimal range of motion for each muscle gr... | 47m 12s | ||||||
| 3/11/23 | Craig Gilkes, kettlebell master from the school of max unbroken swings | Craig has a wealth of knowledge in the health & fitness industry. Over the years of applying his craft & his gift, he has pared down the need for flashy objects & complex training programs. With mastery comes simplicity and the utmost respect for the basics. It's not just about what is accomplished on a single day of training, but what is accomplished every day of training, day-in and day-out. Craig shares his training style and passion for movement throughout this episode with th... | 41m 58s | ||||||
| 3/9/23 | Chad Trudo: The Director of Strength & Conditioning at Aurora University | Another round with my fitness consigliere, Chad Trudo. We had all the intentions of breaking down a newly published research article on the topic of countermovement jump performance. However, many tangental conversations occurred, that in my mind were much more usable and fundamental in the world of exercise and strength & conditioning. Chad and I dove into banter on the topic of neuromuscular fatigue with tools to assess and understand the data and how to apply the information to your ad... | 35m 53s | ||||||
| 3/9/23 | Dr. Hannah Brandt | A big thank you to Dr. Hannah Brandt for being a guest on the show. Hannah and I share a similar career story, as we were both previously institutionalized professionals turned entrepreneurs. Hannah's background is in physical therapy where practicing in the current "one size fits all" model never settled well with her values and style of practice. Which lead to her own flourishing practice of online health coaching and personal training. Dr. Hannah has an impactful backstory with her own per... | 38m 48s | ||||||
| 2/22/23 | Using RPE vs a percentage of your 1-rep max in your training | There have been countless research studies done on understanding training outcomes based on working at differing percentages of your 1-rep max. It's tried and true. But it may be leaving out a very important detail. It does not take into account your level of preparedness the day of training. We all have had days where (for example) 100 pounds feels light and effortless on the bench press. Then next week comes along and the same 100 pounds feels like 200 pounds. If you were to use a percentag... | 24m 06s | ||||||
| 1/27/23 | Hannah Johnson of @runthismomlife | Thank you to Hannah for cutting into your bedtime and being a guest on the podcast! For those of you who don't know, most of my episodes for this show are recorded "late" in the evening (~8pm) after the kids are down, so if rambling on a tangent occurs you now know why. On this episode we dive into conversations centering around fitness and family. Both of which can take a considerable amount of time from the day, but when done harmoniously, everyone can benefit. Hannah also gives some insig... | 42m 56s | ||||||
| 1/20/23 | Tyler Friedrich: Stanford University's Director of Olympic Sports Performance and Applied Sport Science. | There is so much to unpack from this episode with Tyler. I'm very grateful for all the insight he shared regarding his approach to training extremely high caliber collegiate athletes. And at the same time realized how simple the foundational structure the training principles are based upon. The real beauty is the art and nuance Tyler applies every day when working with his athletes. We dive into conversations regarding the nervous system and how to best approach stimulate the body to c... | 42m 14s | ||||||
