Optimize Your Health After 45: A Deep Dive into the Best Supplements for Women

One aspect of health and fitness that I haven’t covered in a while is supplements, and I’ve been really interested in learning more about them lately. For this episode of the Fit is Freedom Podcast, I thought we’d do a little “show and tell,” so to speak. 
 
So…I thought I might show you all what I’ve been using lately to help keep me as fit and healthy as possible!

Top Supplements for Aging
While I am in no way, shape, or form a doctor, I do consider myself to be an excellent student when it comes to all things health and fitness. One thing I’ve been particularly interested in lately is supplements and how they can support our bodies as we age.
 
There are so many different supplements on the market these days, but I wanted to share with you some of my personal favorites that I am currently utilizing in my everyday life in case you’d like to learn more.
Proteins
As we age, protein becomes more and more important. Not only does our body need more, but it actually craves it less, so I’m always on the lookout for sneaky ways to get more in. Of course, protein powders are a quick and easy way to do so! Here are my two current favorites…
Naked Goat
As the name suggests, Naked Goat is a protein powder developed from the whey of goat milk. From what I’ve learned, it is the easiest for us to digest, and I really enjoy the taste! 
Vega Pea Protein
Another more popular option for protein powder is Vega. The brand is very popular and has a variety of flavors, all derived from organic pea protein and other ingredients. 
 
Amino Co
Recently, we had Dr. Robert Wolfe on an episode of the Fit is Freedom Podcast where he outlined some of the incredibly brilliant science behind Amino Co and how it can be a game changer for people of all ages. I highly recommend checking out his podcast to learn how Amino Co can really help build muscle and prevent muscle loss.

Athletic Greens
Chances are, you’ve heard of Athletic Greens. It’s one of the most popular green drinks on the market. It’s filled with so many different vitamins and minerals, and I am, personally, a big fan of the ingredient list. Its high quality ingredients really seem to cover a lot of the nutritional bases that we need, and I love starting my day getting what I need. 
Algae Cal
The truth is…I’ve got bone loss. Like many Americans, it doesn’t matter how much I lift or that I’ve been healthy my entire life, it’s just something that has progressed for me over time. What I found incredibly interesting about Algae Cal is their guarantee that if you take their supplement for 6 months, you will have a favorable bone scan or you’ll get your money back.

Novos
The last on my list of current supplements is Novos. The company’s whole focus is on how to stay younger for longer, and it does this in a couple of different ways. For starters, you can take their quiz and receive a score, noting your health. After that, you can explore their tips on how to improve your score, explore their longevity diet, and try out their supplements. 
 
As opposed to the others on this list, Novos is a data-driven experience to help you stay healthy longer. 
 
While this list doesn’t encompass everything, and I know that everyone is different, I just thought I would share what I’ve been into lately! If you see something that sounds interesting to you, I highly recommend exploring it for yourself and even talking with your doctor before giving it a try!

Wellness Boosts: Top Fitness & Health Devices Revealed

In the health and fitness world, it seems like people are always talking about diet and exercise. There are things we need to take out of our diet or add in. There are always new and life changing exercises that we MUST try to reach our goals. But, there’s something else that is equally important, but not talked about as much….And that’s rest and recovery!
 
Rest and recovery is essential to meet your health and fitness goals, which is why I’m taking some time out today on this episode of the Fit is Freedom Podcast to discuss this. I’ll be sharing my top 7 items that I’ve found to be complete game changers for my rest and recovery which include…
 
ChiliPad
Oura Ring
Red Light Therapy
Alen Air Filters
Thumper Massage Unit
Brain Tap
Neuro MD
 
Check out our videos on YouTube!
 
Top Items for Rest and Recovery
Whether it’s getting enough high quality sleep or helping your muscles recover through massages and other techniques, there are so many different items on the market designed to help us out. Here are some of my favorites…
1. Chili pad 
 
Getting the recommended amount of sleep is instrumental in reaching your health and fitness goals. This ChiliSleep cooling mattress topper has been a complete gamechanger! It goes right on top of my mattress and allows me to adjust how cool I want it to feel. 
 
2. Oura Ring 
 
A lot of times, we will think we’re getting adequate sleep when we’re really not. You may be going to bed at the right times, but your body may not be getting the good, deep sleep that you need. I love the Oura ring because it helps me monitor my sleeping habits and even gives you a “sleep score.” It allows me to learn about myself and learn how I can adjust my sleep for the better.

3. Red Light Therapy
 
It’s a little bit of a funny story of how I got into red light therapy. It was actually for my cat at first. I learned about it from her vet and how it could help her heal. From there, I ended up reading a book about red light therapy and its benefits for me. 
 
Now, I have a panel for myself and utilize it when I am recovering. It’s been a game-changer, and I highly recommend that you read up on it for yourself! 
4. Alen Air Filters
 
Rest and recovery isn’t all about sleeping and taking care of our joints. It can also be making sure that we are breathing in high quality air. Recently, I invested in some of these amazing filters, and I can really tell the difference! 
 
Coming Soon! The fitness consistency book that will change your life!  Get updates here. 
 
5. Thumper Massage Unit
 
Maybe this one goes without saying? Either way, I’m sharing because this is definitely a favorite recovery tool for when I have some intense aches and pains! As a matter of fact, my Thumper massage unit was quite the popular commodity on a recent hiking trip with some clients and friends! 
 
6. Brain Tap
 
This one is definitely unique. The Brain Tap is a contraption that looks a bit like headphones, and it helps people focus with meditation by synchronizing with brain waves. I have personally found that it’s helped my focus while meditating, so you may want to give it a try as well.
 
Either way, meditation is another great way to recover from your typical exercise regimen, slow down the brain, and allow your whole body to rest.
7. Neuro MD
 
My final recommendation that will help with rest and recovery is the Neuro MD. It’s a butterfly-shaped compact device that uses electrical stimulation to bring pain relief and recovery. I personally love to use it on my lower back region, which is perfect for lifters, hikers who carry around big packs everywhere and anyone in between.

Interview with author Julia Goodfellow Smith - Walking the Camino de Santiago - What it Takes!

This episode of the Fit is Freedom Podcast is jam-packed with all kinds of inspiring stories and content that is going to make you want to get outside and knock out your bucket list! 
 
This week, we are joined by the incredible Julia Goodfellow Smith. She is a returning guest who is dedicating her life to helping and inspiring ordinary people to do something extraordinary! In this episode, we are discussing…
 
Why adventure is important
Julia’s bucket list and how she’s tackling it
How to prepare for long journeys
Her new book, Live Your Bucket List
And so much more…
Check out our videos on YouTube!
 
Why are adventures so important?
Especially for women, type two fun is crucial. Type two fun is the type of fun that requires grit and confidence. It’s the type of fun where you’re met with adversity, but when you overcome it, you look back on the experience with such fondness and pride. 
 
It’s important to have type two fun for women in order for us to push ourselves, get out of our comfort zones, and experience life more fully. One great way to experience these adventures and this type of fun is through a bucket list, which is just what Julia Goodfellow Smith is doing!

Julia’s Adventures
So many of my clients have been incredibly inspired by Julia, her last visit on the podcast, and her last book. To name a few…Julia has walked the Camino de Santiago more than once, which stretches nearly 500 miles. She has also cycled King Alfred’s Way among so many other things!

How to Prepare for Long Journeys
Hiking
Julia shares that she finds it best to train with a backpack on. More specifically, a heavier one than she may be used to. She recommends working up to 2-3 consecutive days of about 10 miles, since you don’t typically do much more than that per day. 
 
In addition to building up distance and time, you can also work on handling heavier weights, slowing building up your backpack weight.  Then when you actually complete your long hike, your actual backpack’s weight feels like a piece of cake! 
 
Biking
Preparing for long biking journeys can be very different from hiking journeys. You can easily be walking fit, but that may not cut it for a long distance bike ride. Here are some things that Julia incorporated into her workouts in order to train for her big ride in just 6 weeks…
- Spinning classes
- Practicing hills
- Longer distance flat rides 
- Paying attention to posture and positioning
 
Live Your Bucket List
The great thing about Julia’s new book is that it is a book with simple steps to live your dreams. Whether you want to hike a long distance like Julia as part of your bucket list, or if you want to visit a particular area or anything in between.  This book not only pulls examples from her personal experiences but also provides readers with actionable steps.

What’s Working for These Women’s Fitness - Today!

In this episode of the Fit is Freedom Podcast, I’m going to be highlighting some of my clients and their most recent triumphs in hopes that some of you may connect with these stories and find some inspiration.
 
What some people may know is that I love working individually with clients from all over! I enjoy helping women feel inspired and find a health and fitness journey that sparks joy. 
 
Client 1
The first client I’m highlighting today wanted to reach her goals, but hated a set plan! She didn’t want to feel like her day in and day out was micromanaged, and I understand that. So, we created a menu! Not the kind with actual food, but filled with choices of various exercises that she could pick and choose from throughout the week.
 
As time went on, this client started realizing that picking from her menu the day before was helpful because she could prepare the items she’d need ahead of time. 
 
Then, she started realizing it’s so much easier to lay out her menu for the week, and before we knew it, she was planning her weeks, seeing results, and enjoying the autonomy she had over her workouts and her fitness! 
 
Check out our videos on YouTube!
Client 2
My next client was completely bored with her workouts and routine. One day, I asked, “Well, what do you want to look forward to?” Immediately, her eyes lit up. When she realized what she wanted to accomplish, she found a journal and wrote out her plan to reach it. More and more, she realized the goal was the spark she needed to find inspiration in training and planning out her fitness routine.
 
Client 3
When Client 3 came to me, she was not active at all. So, she saw a lot of success at first. Then, she plateaued. After several weeks of not seeing the needle move (part of her fitness goals involved weight loss), we realized that she had never tracked her food and water intake.
 
After some simple paper tracking of these things, we were easily able to spot an extra 300-500 unnecessary calories, and get her off that plateau.

Client 4
My next client was in her late 60s and had never lifted weights in her life! So, when she first tried them out, she wanted to be this perfect achiever and do everything right. While it’s important to focus on form, it’s also important to get curious and open your mind to having fun. 
 
Over time, she learned this lesson and focused on progress and fun by learning new exercises she never would’ve tried.  She even took some new Pilates classes.
 
Client 5
Last but not least, I want to share about client 5 who, for a solid year now, has changed her habits and mindset completely. However, when she and her husband decided to ditch their conventional life and travel the world for 6 months, she panicked. She worried that all of her hard work would go down the drain.
 
We first focused on easily packable items. For example, running shoes, weighted vests, and resistance bands are easy to pack and great for little workouts. Then, she started getting creative! With each new city, she found at least one new (and fun) exercise to try! Whether it was stand up paddleboarding or renting bikes, she planned little fitness excursions in each city, continued with her fitness success, and had a blast while doing it! 
 
Coming Soon! The fitness consistency book that will change your life!  Get updates here. 
 
What Do They Have In Common?
I’d be willing to bet that you can see yourself in at least one of the clients I shared about today. They’re all unique in their wants, needs, and preferences, but I did observe they have some very similar qualities. 
 
Accountability
First of all, these clients all work with me. They have a support system that is focused on their health and fitness journey. It’s important to have someone to keep you accountable and help you through those rough patches.
 
Fun!
If it doesn’t spark joy, it’s not going to stick. All of these awesome ladies found ways to spark their joy with their plans and their fitness journeys!
 
Tracking
Lastly, they all did some form of planning and tracking. It’s crucial to have a why and then make actionable steps to get there!

Since then, she has written her most recent novel, You Are Limitless, as a way to bridge the gap between the importance of movement and being in the great outdoors and mental health.
You Are Limitless
You Are Limitless highlights seven amazing people and their stories of overcoming grief, trauma, addiction, and other trials.

Importance of Hope
Like many of the stories in her book, Kate has firsthand experience overcoming struggles. She shares her challenging experience with two autoimmune diseases that essentially left her unable to move. Feeling scared, alone, and desperately trying to find answers, she was still able to find hope in the darkness. She believes we all can do this once we recognize our abilities to be resilient and find hope even at our worst.

Importance of Role Models
Recently, I shared the importance of role models in a special episode celebrating my mother’s birthday! Similarly in this episode, Kate and I reiterate this importance and how seeing and reading about the amazing things people do can inspire us to do the same!

Use this Course Correction Tactic and Stay On Track

Looking for a quick way to course correct and refocus on your goals and aspirations? Join me this week on the Fit is Freedom Podcast as I share an easy exercise that I complete once every 90 days that helps me evaluate where I am at, adjust where I’m heading, and envision my future successes.
 
Check out our videos on YouTube!
 
7-Question Guided Journal Session
If you’re a pilot, getting off course even 1% could be the difference between you landing in your desired location and somewhere hundreds of miles away. Similarly, it’s usually in the small decisions adding up that we get caught up and off course with our health and fitness goals.
 
One exercise I love practicing is journaling, and there’s a specific journal I do every 90 days or so that lets me pause, evaluate my journey, and make small adjustments. Here are the questions I answer…
 
Join our private Facebook Group!
 
1. Where am I at?
Whether your answer focuses on your mental or physical state, this is a great starting point. Think about how you’re doing and where you are currently as a way to understand how you feel things are going.
 
2. Where have I come from?
What has happened in the past 90 days (or it could be longer if it’s your first time to do this prompt)? Think about your journeys and your challenges, and just let them flow freely on the paper.
 
3. What do I want to accomplish in the short term?
In other words, where do you want to be 90 days from now? What do you want to be writing about yourself when you do this journal entry again? 
 
4. What were my wins in the last 90 days?
Now that you have thought about where you’ve come from and what you want, it’s time to focus on the positive by pointing out what has gone well.
 
Coming Soon! The fitness consistency book that will change your life!  Get updates here. 
 
5. What are my desired wins in the next 90 days?
Seeing what has gone well so far is great, but now it’s time to shift to the future. Think about those wins you want to be jotting down next journal entry time, and write them here.
 
6. What are my desired wins in the next 12 months? 
Expand your goals even further. Picture yourself in a year’s time. What wins do you want to be celebrating? 
 
7. What are my desired wins in the next 5 years? 
Lastly, think long-term. What wins do you desire to see in 5 years? Are there some bigger aspirations you want to check off your list? Jot them down here!

Choosing Role Models for Fitness and Life

I’m one of the lucky ones. Growing up, I had an amazing, loving, and motivated mother as someone to look up to. She was my role model, and there’s not a day that goes by when I’m not thankful for everything she did for me.
 
Today on the Fit is Freedom Podcast, join me as I celebrate my mother’s birthday by sharing fond memories and discussing the importance of finding a role model in your life.
 
Check out our videos on YouTube!
 
Why Do We Need Role Models?
You see, my mother was years ahead of her time. She exercised regularly, became a 5th-degree black belt in Taekwondo, and was still teaching yoga well into her 80s. She was the perfect example of how you can care for your mind and body, live a full and happy life, and find fun no matter your age.
 
As we move through life, finding someone with the life you aspire to lead is important. Seeing yourself in someone a little more accomplished or leading a life you want to lead will motivate you to continue toward your goals.

How Can I Find a Role Model?
For some, it may be a close relative, but for others, it may be a coach, mentor, or inspirational leader. It doesn’t matter who it is, just as long as they represent where you want to be headed.
 
If you don’t have an immediate family member who is living the life you want to lead in the future, look outwardly for inspiration. You could find people locally who teach or coach fitness classes you enjoy, but thanks to the World Wide Web, you can also search online.
 
Find authors or podcasters who align with your dreams and aspirations or peruse social media for women or men who inspire you. 
 
Coming Soon! The fitness consistency book that will change your life!  Get updates here. 
 
Who Are Some Great Role Models?
Thanks to this podcast, I get to speak with so many inspirational men and women. There are a few people who’ve joined us on the podcast that come to mind. Be sure to check our Fit is Freedom Podcast archives for so many more inspiring guests and role models! 
 
Kate Champion
Kate is the author of Never Too Late, a book set out to inspire people of all ages to stay fit and healthy well into your 50’s, 60’s, and beyond.

Interview Dr Robert Wolfe / Amino Co.

As we age, fueling our bodies properly becomes more and more important. There are certain deficiencies that we need to make up for to prevent loss of muscle mass and stay fit.
One of those deficiencies we experience is protein and, more specifically, essential amino acids. This week on the Fit is Freedom Podcast I’m joined by the incredibly knowledgeable Dr. Robert Wolfe, who helps us better understand these deficiencies, what they can do to our body in the long term, and how to prevent it!
With over 40 years of clinical research, three books, and over 500 peer-reviewed publications under his belt, Dr. Wolfe’s vast understanding of muscle metabolism and how it can be affected by aging and stress is fascinating. Join me as we learn more about him, his journey, and how we can take actionable steps to age gracefully.
 
Check out our videos on YouTube!
 
About Dr. Wolfe
Dr. Robert Wolfe was a college athlete at UC Berkeley, playing basketball, track, and golf. He returned not long after graduating to obtain his Ph.D., and since then, he has accrued many accolades and published a great deal of works focusing mainly on muscle metabolism.
He served as a faculty professor at Harvard Medical School for nine years.  Dr. Wolfe is currently the Director of Translation Research for Aging and Longevity at the Reynolds Institute of Aging in Little Rock and is also co-founding a company.
Throughout his over 40 years of clinical research, he has written three books, over 500 peer-reviewed published articles and holds many active patents. 
 
How to Optimize your Diet
The human body has over 3,000 major proteins and about 21 different amino acids that comprise these proteins. The amino acids and the proteins are essential in preventing muscle atrophy and loss.
In addition to proper diet and exercise, supplements can help prevent the muscle loss that happens as people age. As a matter of fact, a recent study found that utilizing supplements with essential amino acids showed a 15% improvement in muscle strength and mass in men and a staggering 50% improvement in women!

Why do women lose more muscles as they age? 
As women age, menopause seems to play a significant role in protein metabolism. Changing hormones makes it harder to keep up muscle mass. Another factor that could lead to this is a dietary change in women as they age. Dr. Wolfe shared that women tend to have a sweeter taste preference as they age, which also limits their protein and amino acid intake. 
 
Why try an amino acid supplement?
Supplements can even out your dietary needs to meet the basic requirements. When taking a supplement, you don’t have to worry as much about the protein quantity in your diet, which can get more difficult as we age. 
 
Why are there different formulations?
In Dr. Wolfe’s research, he found that changing the components and ratios of the amino acids can alter your desired outcome. Everyone is different and has different lifestyles, and by varying and customizing your supplement for your lifestyle, you will reap the most benefits. 
 
Coming Soon! The fitness consistency book that will change your life!  Get updates here. 
 
Who do I know which product is best for me? 
All products have the same basic components, just with different ratios. Here are the four products…
Life
This supplement is a general stimulant of muscle growth. It targets aging clients who aren’t exercising and still desire to improve their amino acid intake. 
Perform
Perform is designed to promote the maintenance of muscle during exercise. So this is ideally for people who are active and want something to take before their workouts.
Heal
Exercise damages our muscle tissues, and it’s in the regrowth where your muscles build and strengthen. Heal is a supplement designed to help the body rebuild muscles after working out. 
Purity
The final product Dr. Wolfe discusses is Purity, a liver product that focuses on preventing the liver from storing unnecessary fat.
 
Can you take amino supplements and protein supplements together?
It’s important to incorporate supplements and added protein (as well as exercising) to reap the full benefits of muscle growth and loss prevention. 
 
Why do supplements such as these matter?
At the end of the day, the ultimate goal is to live a longer and healthier life. We want to age gracefully and stay active well into our 60s, 70s, and beyond. Supplements like these aren’t going to be the magic ticket, but they can be incorporated into a healthy lifestyle to help promote longevity.

Say No to these Eight Fitness Inhibitors

This week on the Fit is Freedom Podcast, I’m going to be flipping the script! Instead of focusing on what we need to be adding to our lives, I’m going to be sharing the 8 things we can REMOVE that will help us reach our fitness goals.
When people are talking about their fitness journeys, I hear it all the time… “I need to do this…I need to be doing that…I really need to add in more of this…” 
We always think about things we need to be doing and adding to our lives.  This can be overwhelming.  The mentality of needing to do more and more and more to achieve our health and fitness goals can lead to burnout. 
Check out our videos on YouTube!
8 Things to Remove to Improve Your Fitness
The “More” Mentality
First of all, we need to remove this negative talk that I discussed above. More isn’t always better. It can actually lead to burnout, fatigue, injuries, and more.
If your goal is to start running, you don’t have to add a mile to your distance every time you run. It’s not sustainable and can be hurtful to your body in the long run. That’s why the first thing we need to remove from our plates is this mentality. Once we get rid of this notion, we can move on more freely. 
Boring Exercises
Fitness should be FUN! I like to say that at least 80% of what I do needs to be something that I enjoy and value. If you dread going to the gym, try going for a hike with some friends or a new fitness video online. Find a way to make it fun, and you won’t regret it. 
Join our private Facebook Group!
Comparison
Another thing that is sucking the fun and joy from your fitness goals is comparison, and it has got to go! Of course, comparing yourself to others is something to avoid, but it’s also important to avoid comparing yourself with who you used to be. You are different, you’ve changed, and that is OKAY! 
Take time to appreciate your body and get rid of the fun thief that we call comparison! 
Jumping Around
Yes, it’s great for your body to change up your routines every now and then. However, if you’re trying to achieve a particular fitness goal, you don’t want to jump around too often. When you find things you’re enjoying, stick with them for a bit to really see if you notice a change.
Putting Others First
I find this one especially hard for women.  If you want to achieve your goals, you’ve got to stop putting everyone else’s needs in front of your own. Just like the flight attendants always share to put on your own oxygen mask before helping others.  You’ve got to do the same when it comes to your health and well-being! 
Coming Soon! The fitness consistency book that will change your life!  Get updates here. 
Changing for Someone Else
If YOU want to make a change, great! If you want to make a change because you want someone else’s approval, attention, or favor, you’ve got to let that go. We are most successful when our intentions are pure, and we are motivated from within! 
Quitting
Remove quitting from your life! Start small, make little changes, and stick to them. Don’t add so much to your plate that you can’t keep up. That way, when you do start something, you can commit to it with more ease.
Falling for Clickbait
Flashy advertisements promising overnight results sound so enticing! But, you know what? It won’t work that way. True change happens over time.  Make sure you don’t get caught up in this clickbait culture filled with empty promises.
