STOP SITTING ALL DAY! đŞ Dr. Ryanâs Challenge: Letâs Get Moving! đŞDr. Ryan Goodkin shares a simple but powerful tip: Movement is LIFE! Sitting too long can lead to health issues,...
05/11/2024
My friend,if youâre feeling stuck in your training and frustrated by your lack of progress, read on â you might be making some of the same mistakes too.
1. Changing Exercises Too Often
Hereâs the thing: sticking to the same exercises, especially major lifts like deadlifts, squats, and rows, allows you to improve your technique and gradually lift heavier weights.
2. Not Pushing Close Enough to Failure
So many women avoid pushing themselves close to muscular failure, often because theyâre unsure of their limits or worry about doing something wrong. But to stimulate real muscle growth, you need to hit that edge where youâre within 1-3 reps of failure, especially on big compound lifts.
3. Poor Execution/Technique
Lifting with poor technique is one of the quickest ways to stall progress or even get injured.
Technique is the foundation of effective lifting; without it, the muscles youâre targeting may not even be activated properly
4. Ignoring the Importance of Progressive Overload
Progressive overload means gradually increasing the stress placed on your body during training, whether by adding weight, reps, or sets over time.
Many women either forget or donât know how to implement this principle, leading to plateaued progress.
5. Neglecting Recovery and Nutrition
If youâre burning the candle at both ends â skimping on sleep, under-eating, or skipping post-workout recovery â your results will suffer.
Sleep and nutrition are as important as the training itself. Without adequate recovery, your body wonât have the resources it needs to repair and grow stronger.
6. All-or-Nothing Mindset
Some women believe that if they canât hit personal records or nail every single workout, itâs not worth going to the gym at all. But gym progress isnât about perfection â itâs about consistency. Not every session has to be your best.
đŁYour Progress Isnât Linear â and Thatâs Okay!
Remember, progress isnât about constant improvement every single week.
Youâre stronger than you think!
I am all for having treats!!
I am also all for having fun!!
You wanna know what is NOT fun?
Eating your favorite treats and feeling like you can't stop!
Waking up bloated and tired because you binged again
If you didn't know it chemicals are designed to hook us đ
Scientists spend years in a lab figuring out the right combo
of chemicals to make us keep coming back
for more
The problem is that these treats hurt our bodies
Makes us gain weight
Majorly affects our sleep
Cause eczema, allergies, hyperactivity in kids + high BP
A Betty Crocker cake + frosting is more addictive
than a higher quality brand of cake that has less chemicals!!
đKey takeaway: Not all cakes and cookies and sweet treats are made the same
Learn what treats are "safe" for you to eat without bingeing
Enjoy your treats without all the tricks!
And before you put it in your mouth
You reconsider if youâre the problem
Or if the chemicals in the âtreatâ are the real problem.

đIf you're training hard but not seeing the results you want, it's time to take a closer look at what might be going wrong.
1. Not Training close to Failure
One of the biggest mistakes I see women making is not pushing their muscles close enough to failure. Building muscle requires effort! If you're stopping too soon because it gets uncomfortable, youâre missing out on serious gains. Pushing sets close to muscular failure is key for growth and strength. You donât need to go to absolute failure every time, but your sets should feel challenging and hard to complete by the end. A good rule of thumb is to do as many reps as possible with good form. I usually pull up 1 rep short of failure.
2. Swapping Exercises Too Frequently
I know variety can keep things exciting, but constantly changing up exercises every few weeks can actually slow your progress. To really master a movement, you need to stay consistent with it. When you repeat exercises, you improve your skill at that movement, allowing you to lift heavier and push your muscles harder. Stick with your program for at least 12 weeks and watch how your strength (and body) changes.
3. Not Following a Structured Program with Progressive Overload
If youâre not following a structured program thatâs designed to gradually increase the weight or resistance you use over time, youâre missing out on one of the most important principles of building muscleâprogressive overload. Progressive overload means consistently increasing the demands on your muscles by lifting heavier weights or doing more reps. Itâs essential for muscle growth, and without it, youâll plateau. Following a well-designed program that tracks your progress is key to making gains.
4. Overcomplicating Nutrition
You donât need to obsess over every detail of your diet. Eating for muscle growth comes down to consistently hitting your calories and protein goals. Focus on simple, whole foods like fruits, root veggies, OJ, honey, maple syrup, properly prepared grains, lean meats, seafood, liver, oysters, quality dairy, saturated fats and yummy sourdough bread. And yes, you can still enjoy delicious foods without sabotaging your results!
5. Ignoring Recovery
Training hard is important, but so is recovery! If you're constantly sore, tired, or run-down, it's a sign your body isnât getting enough time to recover. Sleep, rest days, and proper nutrition are essential for muscle repair and growth.
6. Not staying active
Lifting weights is fantastic, but donât forget about daily movement. Walking, getting outside, playing sport and staying active throughout the day helps with digestion, joint health, and mood. Plus, itâs an easy way to increase your energy expenditure which means you can eat more, who doesnât want that! Try to get your steps in and move around regularly, even if you have a sedentary job.
LADIES....I know this might sound crazy, but if youâve been trying to eat less and work out more to lose weight and feel better, you might actually be making things harder for yourself.
For so long, weâve been told that in order to shed those kgs, we need to cut calories, eliminate entire food groups, and exercise until weâre exhausted. But what if the key to achieving the body you want and restoring your energy was the exact opposite?đ¤¨
>>>>> Why Eating More is the Key to a Faster Metabolism
When you drastically restrict your calories, your body goes into survival mode. It doesnât know when its next meal is coming, so it slows down your metabolism to conserve energy.
The result?
You feel tired, anxious, and it affects thyroid function, digestion and s*x hormone production. Your body becomes efficient at using fewer calories, you lose muscle making it harder to lose body fat over time.
đHowever, when you start eating enough calories, especially from nutrient-dense foods like dairy, fruit, and mineral-rich options and you add in strength training youâre giving your body the fuel and nutrients it needs to thrive and build muscle. This is when the magic happensâyour metabolism speeds up, you start burning fat more efficiently, and you feel calmer and more energized.
Itâs like your body is saying, âThank you for finally feeding me!âđ
Your body doesnât need to be starved, punished, or restricted to help you lose weight. It needs to be nourished, fed, and supported. When you take care of your body and give it what it needs, the results will follow.
âĄď¸Remember, this is about building a body you love and feeling great while doing it.
Youâve got this, and Iâm here to support you every step of the way!
How often do you think about the connection between what you eat and how you feel?
đWomen over 40 who are in perimenopause and menopause are in a period of constant stressâboth in their lives and within their own bodies.
Changing hormone levels put a strain on your body, and you need all the rest you can get to make sure your body can still function at its best.
If you donât get the amount of sleep your body needs, it could be a contributor toâŚ
Anxiety
Depression
Forgetfulness
Clumsiness or falling
Body aches
Irritability and mood swings
Low thyroid levels
Increased risk of heart disease, obesity, and diabetes
Excess belly fat
Cravings, binge eating, and unhealthy food choices
Reduced insulin sensitivity
More severe PMS and heavier periods
While every womanâs individual sleep needs vary for the exact number of hours you should get, the important thing to know is that you need to listen to your body.
đIf you feel off in any of these areas, addressing your sleep habits will be an important step in creating a vibrant, energized life in menopause and beyond.

đPerimenopause can be such a hard transitional time in your life.
I hear you, and I am right there with you.
Itâs easy to feel overwhelmed with the changes in your body.
Itâs easy to let the stress of life weigh you down.
Itâs easy to continue putting othersâ needs ahead of your own.
Itâs not easy to prioritize yourself. But that is exactly what you need to do.
Quality self-care rituals could be the difference between thriving and merely surviving during this stage of your life.
Here are 5 practical ways to take care of yourself as you work through perimenopause.⤾ď¸
#1 â SWITCH TO GENTLE EXERCISE
Yoga and stretching
Walking, hiking, or gentle jogging
Swimming or water aerobics
Strength training
Dancing
Yard work
Aim for 30 minutes of activity at least five days out of the week
#2 â GET ENOUGH SLEEP
Perimenopause is a time when many women struggle in the sleep department. Whether due to stress related to work or family situations, night sweats, or just pure insomnia, not getting enough sleep can really take a toll on your health and mood.
#3 â WATCH WHAT YOUâRE PUTTING IN (AND ON) YOUR BODY
Toxins can wreak havoc on our hormones at any stage of life, and particularly in perimenopause, they can create even more chaos than what you are already experiencing.
It is so important to watch what you put on and in your body and to detox regularly so you can keep your body in balance.
#4 â ASK FOR HELP
Itâs easy to feel like you should be able to handle everything in your life. We all carry the weight of the world on our shoulders and feel like we need to keep a million plates spinning perfectly or the world is going to crumble.
Itâs ok if you need to get help.
#5 â LEARN THE VALUE OF NO (AND YES)
Itâs ok to say no.
Know your limits.
Prioritize.
IâM HERE FOR YOU!đ¤
My goal is to empower you to thrive during this stage of your life. Perimenopause doesnât have to be a dirty word â we can reclaim it as a time of power and joy.

đŁMy friend...
Itâs Menopause Awareness Month.
As if you needed a reminder to be aware!đ

But what if the way youâre going about getting your ânowâ is a miss for your later?đ
What if the things you love ⌠donât really help muscle mass or bone density?
How can we reach our goals for later?

đHow is cholesterol influenced by the consumption of grapes?đ
Grapes are among the most popular fruits globally, due to their versatility in various culinary recipes. In addition to their multiple uses in traditional cuisine, they can help reduce blood cholesterol levels.
Grapes are rich in essential nutrients, including fiber, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese, calcium, iron, resveratrol, polyphenols, vitamin C, vitamin K, protein, water, and natural sugars.
They can be easily integrated into a balanced diet, along with other healthy foods.
đImpact of Eating Grapes on Cholesterol
Although grapes are highly nutritious, it's important to keep in mind their high content of natural sugars if you want to include them in your diet, according to Health Digest.
These sugars can significantly influence a diet that aims to reduce sugar consumption.
Regular consumption of grapes may be a more effective method of lowering blood cholesterol levels than many processed foods, which are said to provide the same benefits.
đEffects of grape polyphenols on cholesterol
Grapes can be a valuable option for those who want to lower blood cholesterol levels without resorting to medication. The polyphenols in grapes are one of the reasons why they are considered superfoods with the potential to improve cholesterol levels.
Polyphenols are antioxidant-rich compounds known for their anti-inflammatory properties. They can improve the health of the cardiovascular system by preventing the accumulation of cholesterol in the blood vessels, a factor that can lead to arterial blockages.
The polyphenols in grapes help balance LDL cholesterol levels (the "bad" cholesterol), according to the National Library of Medicine.
đThe effects of fiber in grapes on cholesterol
Grapes contain soluble fiber, which can help lower total blood cholesterol levels. In addition, thanks to their fiber-rich pulp, they can significantly contribute to reducing high blood pressure.
The beneficial effects of eating grapes on cholesterol are due to several essential substances.
Among the fibers and phytonutrients present in grapes are catechins, proanthocyanidins, anthocyanins, leukoanthocyanidins, quercetin, kaempferol, stilbene, ellagic acid and hydroxycinnamates. These compounds not only give the grapes color, but they can also reduce blood cholesterol levels and strengthen the immune system.
It is important to note that grapes can cause bloating due to their fructose
content.
đOther benefits of eating grapes
Due to their rich nutrient profile, grapes can bring multiple health benefits. Their anti-inflammatory properties can reduce inflammation in the kidneys and liver, and the antioxidants they contain can decrease the risk of oxidative stress and prevent cancer.
In addition to the effects on cholesterol, eating grapes can support weight loss by breaking down fat cells and preventing unwanted pounds from accumulating, providing feelings of fullness.
Grapes may support brain health and reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. The minerals in grapes are also beneficial for bone health, according to UCLA Health.

đŁCravings, Mood Swings, Sleepless Nights? This Could Be the FixâŚâ¤ľď¸
As days grow shorter and nights longer, you may have noticed a shift in your mood, cravings, and energy levels...
This seasonal shift, often tied to what we call Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), happens in the fall and winter â because our bodies are out of sync with our environment â especially when it comes to our hormones.
The impact? Sleep disruptions, mood swings, and cravings for all the wrong foods â just in time for the most indulgent season of the year.
Hello stress and sugar overload!đ
But donât worry, weâve got your back with a few simple ways to keep those fall and winter blues at bay:
-Chase the Sun: Get as much natural light as possible, especially in the morning.
-Move Your Body: Consistent movement can boost your mood, no matter how chilly it gets outside.
-Stick to a Routine: A regular schedule helps your body stay balanced, syncing your internal clock.
-Nourish Your Body: Keep cravings in check with nutrient-rich meals that fuel your body instead of spiking your energy (then crashing it).

đŁYou know those social media posts that show healthy alternatives to common treats - otherwise known as âswaps?â
Well, we want to share our Top 5 Healthy Swaps that you can make right now to see faster and more sustainable progress with your health and fitness.
Here you goâŚ
1. Swap cardio for more lifting and walking
(Bet you didn't see that one coming.)
Now, weâre not saying swap ALL cardio. Weâre just saying to prioritize strength training and use walking as your primary driver for a lean and healthy body composition.
2. Swap the last 30 minutes of Netflix for more sleep
Again, weâre not saying you should stop watching TV. Believe us, we know the importance of winding down at the end of a crazy day. But let's just try to cut it about 30 minutes short so you can get more sleep. Bonus points if you cut it short by an hour!
3. Swap your 3rd meal out (or delivery meal) for home cooking
If you want to improve your health - whether through fat loss, increased strength or (ideally) both - it's really tough to make that happen when you spend most of your meals at restaurants or at home with DoorDash bags scattered around the kitchen. See if you can limit these to 2 - 3x/week.
4. Swap the excessive alcohol for feeling better
Full disclosure: we enjoy alcohol in limited doses but let's not sugarcoat what alcohol actually isâŚa toxic substance. And your body reacts to it accordingly, which can lead to poor sleep, compromised performance and mood swings - among many other health risks. So cut back if you need to.
5. Swap old patterns for getting the help you need
We know, we know⌠you "should" be able to figure out your health and fitness on your own. Itâs just easier because itâs more familiar, right? Nope! The truth is, every single human does better with accountability and guidance. Period.
Make sure you have someone - or a group of someones - keeping the bar high for you while giving you the practical support you need.
Well, there you have it. Let us know which swaps work best for you. We canât wait to compare notes!
Have a great week.

đMacros or Calories For Weight Loss?đ¤
Well....let's see...
Calories = these days food manufacturers abuse this word and make protein bars, cereals and low carb bagels etc "under 100 calories" but the food contains tons of chemicals so the low carb, low calorie concept only inflames women which keeps weight stuck!
Macros = this consists of a carbs, protein and fat. This is what we focus on when women come learn with us to lose that stuck weight. It's important to focus on the quality of the macros especially in midlife!
Calories can be manipulated by food manufacturers to inflame you which keeps you addicted to their products.
(read that twice)
When we focus on macros we don't worry about calories anymore
OH YEAH
Important: just because something says "no sugar" doesn't mean it's healthy for youđĽş
And in most cases, I find food manufacturers use sugar alcohols that cause bloat in a lot of women or worse, sucralose, aspartame and saccharin which are downright poison.
Hope this brings you massive clarity today!
