You can still call me and 12 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:36,559 Speaker 1: then maybe by the end of the year a bit 13 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 1: earlier you can call me doctor dumbas. We'll see how 14 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: we go. There's a lot of variables. And for anyone 15 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: out there thinking about doing a PhD, don't you know 16 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: just a little bit from No, I'm kidding, it's definitely 17 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: definitely worth it, but probably don't, probably don't have the 18 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: workload that I do, and then do that as well. 19 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: That that would just be my one little asterisk, my 20 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: little disclaim, my little proviso. Now you live up on 21 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: the Sunshine Coast, I'm getting that right. 22 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 2: I don't know it's true shine lovely long boulevard. 23 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, have you been blown away? Are you still? Did 24 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 1: your house get thrown into the ocean? You all right? Well, 25 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: it's been a fucking mayhem up there. 26 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 3: It certainly has. 27 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 2: Look I had to tie myself down to the roof 28 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 2: at one stage and you know, wave out to the 29 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: helicopters to see how that would go, and saw me 30 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 2: and just went right past. So like, but there's that 31 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: bald Greek guy in the lalla let him go. But yeah, 32 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 2: we got hit with a lot of rain and a 33 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 2: lot of flood waters and stuff like that. Luckily enough 34 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: it went a little bit south from us, so we 35 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 2: didn't get the massive deluge that Gold Coast were the 36 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: overre wiped out, lost bitches, lost, little dogs, lost, everything 37 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 2: was pretty bad. So yeah, I'm still here. I'm still 38 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: waving and lots of green grass. I just had a 39 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 2: tree that blew down in front of my place and 40 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: that's about it, so very very lucky. 41 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you're all right, mate, because I was 42 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: thinking about you, and I've got a bunch of friends 43 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: who live up in Queensland and fortunately everyone is all right. 44 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: But it's all our Queensland listeners and you're going through 45 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: it again because today we're not the same. But it's 46 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: like it's a big You were meant to go to 47 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 1: somewhere today and have an event but it got rained out. 48 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: Am I right? 49 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 3: That's correct? 50 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 2: Also going to be hitting down to Brisbane, but the 51 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: roads except a little bit washed out and the event 52 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: got moved on an indoor event. But the problem would 53 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: have been from getting from the car park to the 54 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: event without getting my hairwet, so that would have been 55 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: the big issue. And then if you look out on 56 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: the map up Noosa, they're flooded out where the NUSA 57 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 2: and North Shore Ferry is where you get across on 58 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 2: the Double Island point that's completely flooded. And were there 59 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: complete deluge at the moment they've got you're not, Honestly, 60 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 2: They've got helicopters getting people out and putting them on 61 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 2: top of the old Quilpy Pub, which is going to 62 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: be some legendary pubub that way. So yeah, it's a 63 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 2: bit scary, Craig. I'm auldering a bit up here getting 64 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: the suntan and roll around the beach and kicking stand 65 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: on my own face and it's not really happening at 66 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 2: the moment. 67 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: Well, and of course he's being facetious everyone because he's 68 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: bald as fuck. He does he probably has four hairs 69 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: on his whole body. I think they're on his left shoulder. 70 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: But anyway, so here's what happened, and this is how 71 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: we ended up doing this. So we have a thing 72 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: called do You Project Podcast Group on Facebook, which you 73 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: listener are more than welcome to join. There's no hooks, catches, agendas. 74 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: It's just a group where we get together and chat 75 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: and hang out and we get a lot of people 76 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: who are like minded, who talk about the shows, talk 77 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: about particular topics and subjects, and every now and then, 78 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: in fact more often now these days, are asking a question. 79 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: So a lady Carroll Caroline who here we go. Sorry, 80 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: I should have been more organized. So Caroline Webbin, who 81 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: is a friend, big friend of the show. When I 82 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: went to New Zealand and did some work for her, 83 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: she ran a public workshop. I went over there and 84 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: it was awesome. Actually we had a lot of fun. 85 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: But anyway, Carolyn is a trainer. She was a I 86 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: was going to say late started, kind of late starter, 87 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: I guess compared some started in her maybe late forties, 88 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: and now she's in her early fifties. I think, Carolyn, 89 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: if I'm fucking this up, sorry, but is n I 90 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: think she's like fifty one, two or three and very strong, 91 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: very fit in factors. Now she's gone from not doing 92 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: anything like the kind of training she does now, never 93 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: having really done it in her life, not in the 94 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: way she does it now, and she's now a multi 95 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: time national record holder in powerlifting Pezzant. Yeah, so she's 96 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: doing she's a fucking weapon anyway. But she's also training people, 97 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: and so she's usd a couple of hypotheticals now. So 98 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: Perry and I are going to we're going to unpack 99 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: this stuff. Now. What we're not doing. Just be clear. 100 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: My lawyer has been on the phone. No, I don't 101 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: even have one. What we're yes, I do. We're not 102 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: giving personal advice, we're not giving medical recommendations. We're not 103 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: telling you to do anything or not do anything. That's 104 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: really up to you. But what we're doing is sharing 105 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: thoughts and ideas and information and a bit of science 106 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: around the questions and topics, and then you either by 107 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: yourself or with a bit of your own research, or 108 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: perhaps with a medical or fitness professional. You will if 109 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: it's relevant, you'll go and make a decision and operationalize 110 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: something and see what the result is. And I know 111 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 1: that sounds kind of fucking double dutch and evasive, but one, 112 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 1: it would be completely unprofessional and irresponsible for either of 113 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: us to tell you what to do, never having met you, 114 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: never having assessed you. So we won't be doing that. 115 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: But what we're going to do is talk about these 116 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: things and I think that will give some clarity. Is 117 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: that all right with you, Pezza? 118 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 3: It sounds great. 119 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: I mean, PEMA need to realize that we've got decades 120 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 2: of experience in this area, and that's why we know 121 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: that we can't just go here we go, this is 122 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 2: what we recommend everyone should do this. 123 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: It's just not going to happen that way. 124 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: It needs to be a personal, one on one assessment 125 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 2: and decide what protocols are then best suited for that person. 126 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 2: And then we all can do is suggest these protocols 127 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: and from there they can decide what they'd like to do. 128 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: Perfect right person one Judy and now I don't know 129 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: if Judy's not real. Caroline suggests she's not. Judy trains 130 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: six days a week, but probably quite representative of some people. 131 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: Judy trains six days a week. She runs, she jumps, 132 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 1: She does CrossFit hydrox type of training, which is that 133 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 1: very much intervally body weighty and a lot of other 134 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: lifting shit and running and jumping. She does's loads of burpies. 135 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: She's fast. She also lifts heavy in the gym. But 136 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: Judy isn't making any progress or getting any stronger. Waits 137 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: remain the same. She lifts about three times a week, 138 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: normally after a run or CrossFit session. She intimately fast 139 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: aka missus breakfast and trains in the morning. So I'm 140 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: assuming if she says she intermittent fast, does she mean 141 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: she does that intimittently or every day she's doing I 142 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: assume she's saying every day she misses breakfast and trains 143 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: in the morning. Can we explain scientifically why Judy isn't 144 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: getting any stronger or building muscle? Right, I'm going to 145 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: kick off, and then I'm going to talk a bit 146 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: about training and broad stuff, and then pez you talk 147 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: about nutrition and whatever you want. But what I'm going 148 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: to say is, with people like Judy or anyone like this, 149 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: you've got to realize that there's a couple of important factors. 150 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: One is that everybody's body responds differently, even to the 151 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: same stimuli. So if we had Judy and jan and 152 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: Joan and they're all about the same and they all 153 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: did the same training and ate the same food and 154 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: lifted the same weights, and had the same amount of sleep, 155 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: and lived the same lifestyle and had a similar mindset 156 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: and all of those things, we'd still get different outcomes 157 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: because genetically they're not the same, and physiologically everybody responds 158 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: either a little bit differently or a lot differently, depending 159 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: on a myriad of variables. So it's impossible to say 160 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: the reason that she's not progressing is this. But when 161 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: we factor in so sleep, we factor in stress, Perry, 162 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: you can talk about food in a moment, of course broadly. 163 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: Then we talk about exercise, the type of exercise, sets, reps, volume, intensity, workload. 164 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: Then we talk about not only recovery between sets and efforts, 165 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: but also recovery period, how much recovery, how many days off, 166 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: and not only how much sleep, but the quality of 167 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: the sleep. So the age of the person chronologically but 168 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: also the age of the person biologically. So, Perry, are 169 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: you sixty two now or one? 170 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 3: What are you sixty one? Kragie will be sixty two 171 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 3: in June, So you. 172 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: And I are both sixty one, And without trying to 173 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: sound like two dickheads, neither of us are biologically sixty one, 174 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: not because we're special or better, but because we do 175 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: certain things that create a lower biological age than chronological 176 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: age I would suggest for both of us. Right, So 177 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: all of these things, and I don't say this to 178 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: confuse everyone, I just want you to get that it's 179 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: not just that's so simple as oh, it's because she's 180 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: not eating enough protein, or it's because she should train 181 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: in the RVO, or it's because she's not eating breakfast, 182 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: or it's because it's probably not one thing. It's probably 183 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: a combination of things. And I'll shut up after this. 184 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: So I think, irrespective of all of the questions that 185 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: we're going to answer today, I think what is really 186 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: important is that people start a process where they're trying 187 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: to identify the different things that impact their body and 188 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 1: the way that those different things or stimuli impact their 189 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: body personally. Like I can tell you what is the 190 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: best sleep protocol for me, the best eating protocol, the 191 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: best training, the best recovery, and not because I'm an 192 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: excise scientist, but because I've paid attention for a long 193 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: time to what my body does when I do certain 194 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: things to it. And not only have I done that 195 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: you know recently, but my whole lifespan and over your lifespan, 196 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: which would be the same for Perry and me and 197 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: every listener. The thing that worked for you when you're 198 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: thirty won't work for you when you're fifty or not 199 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: in exactly the same way, because you're not living in 200 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: the same body. In inverted commas, it'll be similar but 201 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: somewhat different. So pairs, before I throw to you, I'm 202 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: just going to say that question just again, as much 203 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: for our listeners as you. She trains six days a week. 204 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: She runs, jumps, does CrossFit, hydrocks loads of burpies. She's fast. 205 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: She lifts heavy, but she isn't making any progress. Weights 206 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: are not going up. She lifts three times a week, 207 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 1: normally after a run acrossfit. She doesn't eat breakfast. She 208 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: trains in the morning. 209 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts, Well, it's a very interesting concept 210 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 2: here because of the fact we're assuming a lot of 211 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 2: things that you know. While she's missing breakfast, is she's 212 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 2: getting enough food? And you've made a valid point that 213 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 2: it's not a simple answer as all, let's get some 214 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 2: breakfast in and see what happens before she trains. If 215 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 2: the process is going to be a multi factful thing, 216 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 2: and we need to look at another of thing's number 217 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 2: one the overall food content. If we're just looking at 218 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: it from a nutritional point of view, how much food 219 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: is she eating for the whole day, So how many carbs, 220 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,359 Speaker 2: fats and protein. You know, a lot of people demonize 221 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: carver hydrates, and especially when people get a little bit older, 222 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 2: they think I'm going to cut carbs out so I 223 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: can stay lean, et cetera. But we know the carver 224 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: hydrates are a main fuel source. So how many cubs 225 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 2: you're having? When is she having carbohydrates? Is she having 226 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 2: carbohydros while she's training egen a glucose strength with let's 227 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 2: say electrolytes in there. Is she using any form of 228 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 2: stimulants like caffeine before the workout. There's a number of 229 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 2: things that can actually cause this because we might get 230 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 2: a people get a crash. I know with people that 231 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: in a minute fast and that train in the morning 232 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: very early, when we've just included a banana before they train, 233 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 2: just a simple banana, which is twenty grams of carbohydrates. 234 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 2: That always find their performance increases every time. There's no 235 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 2: spots of amies. And there's a number of reasons. One 236 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: in a banana and one banana there's a lot of potassium, 237 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 2: which is great for the satin potassium pump with the muscle, 238 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 2: so it makes the muscle work more effectively. And secondly, 239 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 2: we're getting twenty to twenty two grams for every one 240 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: hundred pms of banana. So therefore, if they're going to 241 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 2: have that extra carbohydrate source, it's going to pick them up. 242 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 3: They're going to work better. 243 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 2: And because she's saying she's not improving and she's doing 244 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 2: the same thing over and over, she needs to try 245 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 2: something different to get a different risk. And the first 246 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,839 Speaker 2: focus is improving the strength. The only thing that can 247 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 2: relate to that will improve a strength is increasing carbo 248 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 2: hydrates and especially whilst he's training. I always recommend all 249 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 2: my clients that are, you know, let's say in the 250 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: athletic field, to always have a carbo hydro drink while 251 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 2: they're training, and it can be anything up to sixty 252 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 2: or eighty grams of carbo hydrates depending on the intensity 253 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 2: and the duration of their exercise program. 254 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: So yeah, I love it. I love it. And also 255 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,839 Speaker 1: when you like you were intimating and cut me off 256 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: whenever you need to. But you know, like the total, 257 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: if somebody's expending more calories than they're taking in, it's 258 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: going to be hard to have energy in the morning 259 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: or vice versa. You know, if there are a thousand 260 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: calories too much every day, well they're going to gain weight. 261 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: I know there are a lot of other variables and 262 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: a myriad of factors, and something that I didn't mention 263 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: at the start was also apart from genetic variability, which 264 00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: I did mention, but also endocrime system. It's like, well 265 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: where is this? You know, how old have we got 266 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: age here? No? So I mean is Judy thirty? Is 267 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: Judy perrymenopausal? Is she menopausal? Is she young? Fit? Healthy? 268 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: Is she like? Is she was she a bigger kid 269 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: when she was Does she have weight issues when she 270 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: was young? I mean, you know the thing is sometimes 271 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, and I know it's like even from a 272 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: dude's point of view, So let's talk about blokes for 273 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: a minute. If I did everything right, but my testosterone 274 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: was through the floor. I'm not building muscle. 275 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 3: You've got to struggle. 276 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 2: You're actually going to struggle, and you're going to be 277 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: psychologically planning as small as you know yourself. On disosteroid levels, 278 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 2: we have like a lot of depressive sort of feelings, 279 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 2: which we call it manipause. Right, you'll feel flat, so 280 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 2: you can train like an animal. You're going to get nowhere. 281 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: It's like, and that's the thing. It's like, you know, 282 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: like she might have Judy might have a thyroid that's 283 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: not worth king grat she might be lacking vitamin B, 284 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: she might be you know, there's a bunch of things 285 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: I think. I think. I think one of the things 286 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: that we can do is Okay, so whatever Dudy's currently doing, 287 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: because she's obviously doing, whether or not Judy is real 288 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: or hypothetical, it doesn't matter, right, because the principles are 289 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: the same. Here's my advice, Judy and all the duties 290 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: out there. Do not change fifteen fucking things at once. 291 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: The problem with that is one completely unscientific. Two, you've 292 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: got no idea what any of those fifteen factors or 293 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: variables are doing. You go, wow, I feel amazing. But 294 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: you don't know which of those things, if any, are 295 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: making you feel amazing. And so, like Perry suggested, maybe 296 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: a starting point. And again this is a maybe, this 297 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: is a hypothetical, as go, we'll do exactly what you're doing, 298 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: but throwing a banana before you train, bibbody, Bobby boo. 299 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: Don't do it once and say it didn't work. Do 300 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: it maybe ten or twelve days, or fifteen days or 301 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: seven days, and see how you train, how you recover, 302 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: how your energy is and you might find there's a 303 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: bit of an improvement, a lot of improvement, or no improvement. 304 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: But either way, what you're doing is you're running your 305 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: own N equals one experiment. You know N equals one. 306 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: You are the research, you are the researcher, and you're 307 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: the participant in your own study. And so this is 308 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: we don't need to be a scientist. Perry's got a 309 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: master's in nutrition. You don't need a masters are great, 310 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: by the way, and he's a smarty pants, but you 311 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: don't need that to go. Fuck, how is my body 312 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: responding when I change this variable? Because your body is 313 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: the ultimate teacher. It is always telling you something and 314 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: it is your job to listen up, Pezz you finish up, 315 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: and then we're going to move on to the next question. 316 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 2: Okay, one of the biggest things that we need to do, 317 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 2: I think in this situation is going one step back 318 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 2: and as actually go you know what, Judy, go get 319 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 2: some blood test done. Let's have a look under the 320 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 2: bonnet and see what's going on. Let's assess you completely. 321 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 2: Let's look at your foundation and we'll see what A 322 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 2: plus B of what you're doing. So as your training, 323 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 2: bees your lifestyle, let's see what the outcome is. And 324 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 2: let's little bit that blueprint, which is your blood works 325 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 2: to give us a better analytical report on what's happening. 326 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 2: And you hit it greatly, Craig when you said, well, 327 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 2: what's a hormone system doing, you know, high low, whatever 328 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 2: on proges to stosterone issue, and what's going on with 329 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 2: the body, what's happening with the vitamin B twelve, what's 330 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 2: happening with vitamin D, which we know is now a 331 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 2: hormone regulated within the female body. So let's rape under 332 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: the bonnet and see what goes on. 333 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, all right, good work, you, good work me. 334 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: I think let's go to let's go to question two, 335 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: and this is still from Caroline. Question two is about Dave. 336 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: I feel like Dave is not real too, but that's okay. 337 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 1: There's heaps of Daves and Craigs and peries and duties 338 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: in the world. Dave's overweight, probably about thirty kilos. He 339 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: exercises each weeak with a mixture of cardio and waits 340 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: two to three times and weights and weights two to 341 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: three times. All right, so I feel like he does 342 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: waights two to three times and cardio on top of that. 343 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: It's about thirty kilos overweight. Firstly, and this is I'm 344 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: not trying to be pedantic, but weight at the very 345 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: best weight. It is an indicator, or it can be 346 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: an indicator. But you also need to remember that when 347 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: we go purely by weight, there's a lot of things 348 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: we're not factoring in, you know, bone density, muscle mass, 349 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: genetic variability. And so somebody like me who's I'm leaned, 350 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 1: like I'm probably ten percent body fat or less. I'm 351 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: lean and I'm eighty maybe eighty five kilos. And if 352 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: you if you do the old BMI, you do the 353 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: height weight THINGO on me one seventy eight centimeters eighty 354 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 1: five kilos. I think you find out that my body, 355 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: my BMI is about twenty seven even as Perry well 356 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: knows and some of our listeners well know, that puts 357 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: me pretty much in the middle of the overweight group 358 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: right now, Clearly I'm not overweight, and clearly I'm not obese, 359 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: and clearly I'm not carrying excess fat. The reason I'm 360 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 1: saying this is because using certain I guess protocols to go, oh, 361 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: this person's good or this person's bad, or this person's 362 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: in the zone or out of the zone. They're target, 363 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 1: they're on target, they're off target. Weight does matter, but 364 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter as much as people think. What probably 365 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: matters in my opinion. Pery will agree or disagree, but 366 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: is more body composition. So what your body fucking made 367 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: up of? Like you could be by the way, I 368 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: could be one hundred kilos and leaner that I am 369 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: now at the same height, and I'm still not you know, fat, 370 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: per se. But then if I was one hundred kilos 371 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: and still lean lots of muscle, I'd be classified as obese. Right, 372 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: So we need to just keep all of these things 373 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: in mind. Now, the next part of this question is 374 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: he's starting on ozepic. Okay, we've spoken about a zepic. 375 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: In fact, we did a whole episode with it on 376 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 1: IT with David Gillespie and again, by no means did 377 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: we cover all of it. He's starting on ozepic to 378 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: assist his weight loss. What's your thoughts on Dave's situation, 379 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: long term weight loss goals and going down this path? Mate? 380 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: Do you want to start with that? 381 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll jump in on that one. 382 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 2: As someone I have pickle maud, but I'm also on 383 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 2: the credited diabetes educator and we did a lot of 384 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 2: stuff on WAT start as GLP one antagonist, so it 385 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 2: gets everything the ball rolling. So I've had clients that 386 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 2: have come and spoke to me about taking a zempic 387 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 2: and a few have taken it. My biggest concern is 388 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 2: always been the side effects from azempic, so I will 389 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 2: sit down and explain the negws before let's look at 390 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 2: the positive and with something like a zenpic. 391 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 3: What we were taught at. 392 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 2: University was simple that it's a transitional thing that will 393 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 2: put someone on a zempic to help regulate the weight 394 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 2: and as the weight comes down, we try and educate 395 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 2: them on lifestyle, lifestyle changes, et cetera. The fact that 396 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 2: he's actually training and doing stuff and went, right, I've 397 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 2: had enough. I want to lose some weight because theoretically 398 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 2: we're assuming that he's thirty kilos overweight, that it's an 399 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 2: unhealthy weight to be at this progression. To do something 400 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: to strike, let's say, speed up the process is I believe, 401 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: a fantastic thing to do it, as long as it's 402 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 2: aware of the side effects. The issue with this can 403 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 2: be and there's been this big speculation I was going 404 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 2: to lose a lot of muscle, et cetera. Some studies 405 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 2: have now been coming out, more so because of the 406 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,479 Speaker 2: fact so many people are on a zenpic that we're 407 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 2: finding that the amount of muscle that people would lose 408 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 2: in comparison to someone that goes into a very strict 409 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 2: diet is very similar. And that's been a very big 410 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 2: eye opener for me. We've just gone, well, that's interesting 411 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 2: because we've been going, hey, wait on zempic's going to 412 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 2: strip away the muscle. When we go off a xempic, 413 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 2: we're going to put on weight. And it's the same 414 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 2: with a diet. If someone's been on a diet and 415 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 2: they've done it specifically to lose weight, and that's all 416 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 2: they're worried about and nothing else. When they stop that 417 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 2: diet and they go back to eating the same way, 418 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 2: it becomes an issue. 419 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 3: They're going to put the weight back on. 420 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 2: So for this guy here, I would say, yep, ZAMPI great, 421 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 2: this is your last point of call. You want to 422 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 2: give it a shot to get the ball rolling, but 423 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 2: continue having education in the matter. Have someone support you 424 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 2: with nutritional advice. Have someone will with your overall lifestyle 425 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 2: to assist you and guide you so that you can 426 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 2: actually maintain the weight loss and do it healthily, and 427 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 2: then slowly come off a zempic to keep going. One 428 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 2: of the ladies I'm actually helping at the moment that's 429 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 2: through Facebook, that's contacting me. She's no complaining of massive 430 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 2: amount of hair loss. We're talking clumps of hair. And 431 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 2: I'm like, well, yeah, you're doctor, so it's not even 432 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 2: an endocronologist. A doctor who put on there has put 433 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 2: on two big a dose And I'm like, this is 434 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: not good man. 435 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 3: This is another thing. 436 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 2: And then how's your digestion going? Can you've got to 437 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 2: the toilet comfortably? I haven't for five days. 438 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: Fuck yeah, really yeah, And this is where. 439 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 2: A destradition coming on. You know, there's a severe side 440 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 2: effects with the zempic and people don't realize, so, especially 441 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 2: when it's been prescribed for someone that's not a diabetes 442 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 2: educator or someone that's well known in the field to 443 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 2: deal with diabetes that can prescribe a zempic as a 444 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 2: weight loss helper. That's what we're trying to look at. 445 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 2: So you know, this situation as long as it's all 446 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 2: been monitored to govern, and we know it's short term, 447 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 2: not long term, but short term to help him drop 448 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 2: some weight. So you know, psychologically, imagine if he dropped 449 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 2: ten kills him feel amazing. That would be to keep 450 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 2: going and then he can throw the exempic the way 451 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 2: and he can keep going and keep going, getting the training, 452 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 2: eating well, having nutritionness or a dietitian, have an exercise 453 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 2: physiologist or a personal trainer to keep him on track. 454 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 2: And if he's got someone to be accountable to, let's 455 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 2: say every week he's got to report into someone to 456 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 2: check his weight to check he'll get amazing results. And 457 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 2: if give him that boost, I'm all for it. But 458 00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 2: where are the side effects? 459 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah. Look, I think it's just going in with 460 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: your eyes open. I'll be honest. Until recently I was 461 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: absolutely fucking not no way ever, right, and then I 462 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: jetted with David Gillespie. He enlightened me a little bit. 463 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: You're enlightening me a little bit. But I think you 464 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 1: and I are in the same space. I think, like 465 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: my answer is, it depends again, it depends. Here's my thing. 466 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: I think we need to not only you know, the nausea, 467 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 1: the constipation, the vomiting, the diarrhea, the bloating, the stomach pain, 468 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: the fucking hair loss, the heartburn, the burping, yes I'm 469 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: reading a list, the fatigue, the low energy, the appetite suppression. 470 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 3: All of those. 471 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, all of those myriad of potential side effects. Right, 472 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: Not only that the physiological stuff, but also I think 473 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: we need to we need to be mindful that people 474 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: can create psychological and emotional dependencies on drugs that aren't 475 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:04,439 Speaker 1: naturally physical logically addictive, you know, like heroin addictive, you know, 476 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: crack addictive, but they're more physical. There's a physiological addiction, 477 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 1: you know, OxyContin all of those things people get physically 478 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: addicted to, But there are other things that are not 479 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: physically addictive per se. But what happens is the person 480 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: now starts to believe I can only lose weight when 481 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: I'm on this drug. I can only stay lean when 482 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 1: I'm on this drug. If I and this is the story, 483 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 1: if I go off this drug, I'm going to get 484 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: fat again. So I can't go off this drug again. 485 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 1: Now I think that variable. Yeah, we're talking about You 486 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: were talking about potential physiological problems, which are very real, 487 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: and I think they're the biggest issue, but I think 488 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: a close second to all of these things. You know, 489 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: It's like you and I have witnessed people over the years, Perry. 490 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: We're not going to mention any names that have taken 491 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: certain other drugs to make their bodies look certain ways, 492 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,719 Speaker 1: and they go, I'm just going to do a bit 493 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: of something, and then ten years down the track, they're 494 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: still doing the something and they have to take you know, 495 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: it's like because there's that same thing, It's like, oh, well, 496 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: if I stop, then I won't look amazing anymore. I 497 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: won't be big anymore, or you know, in the case 498 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: of ozenbic, I won't be lean, or I won't be 499 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: light anymore, because I can't do it. Clearly, I can't 500 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: do it because I would have done it, but now 501 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 1: I've done it with Ozenbic. So I just think that 502 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: we need to be mindful of one all the physical stuff, 503 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: but also go into the process knowing, knowing absolutely this 504 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 1: is a short term thing. 505 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I've found Craig too. These people 506 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 2: that sort of wire on this so much have created narratives. 507 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 2: They'll learn a little narrative about saying, I've tried every diet, 508 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 2: I've tried every this, I've tried every exercise program, I've 509 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 2: had fifteen trainers. And when we look at it, we go, 510 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 2: wait on, if that's the case, if you've tried it, 511 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 2: why you're not sticking to why you're not working on 512 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 2: a prov that we know one hundred and ten percent 513 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 2: will work, will help you, will assist you in some 514 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: form or fashion. So this narrative they've gone off created 515 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 2: nothing works. Nothing works, nothing work, Wait on a zepic works. 516 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 2: I've injected myself. Look, I'm on five hundred calories a day, 517 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 2: I'm losing weight. And that's where they create this association. 518 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 2: And like you're saying, they feel that when they come 519 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 2: off it, they're going to put on light, and you 520 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: know what, if they do put on a little bit 521 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: of what, it's not a problem because you needed a 522 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 2: little bit more than five hundred calories and the body 523 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 2: physiologically is going to start responding and working effectively and 524 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 2: do what it was designed to do. 525 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, alrighty, So the next question is from Janet Allen. 526 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 1: So Janette or yeah it's Janet. Janet shout out to you. Janet. 527 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: It's not so much a question, but she wants us 528 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: to talk. He's literally what she wrote, can't wait for 529 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: this one anything to do with postmenopause. So let's let's 530 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 1: talk about some of And again this is two blokes 531 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: who are probably not the most qualified people in the world, 532 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: but both well, I have, and I'm sure you have, 533 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: a significant percentage of the women that I train. Most 534 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: of my clients for over thirty years were women, like 535 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: about seventy percent, and quite a percentage of them were 536 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: either postmenopause or mid menopause perimenopause. You know. It's like, so, 537 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: I've had a lot of these conversations. I'm not the 538 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: world authority on it, but I understand psychological, emotional, and 539 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: practical realities, not from first hand experience, but from working 540 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: with people who are going through it. So what happens. 541 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: Let's just talk about what happens firstly, typically, so at menopause, 542 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: So bone density now we're talking about if there's no intervention, 543 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: So if nature just takes its course, so to speak, generally, 544 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: bone density goes down. Quite often we see postural problems 545 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: just because own density and a whole bunch of other things. 546 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: So people can start to postmenopause get a little bit kiphotic. 547 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: That's that kind of round the back, forward, hunchy shoulders, 548 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: not always time sometimes not always. Sometimes muscle mass drops off, 549 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: it starts to accelerate around give or take fifty. That's 550 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: very general. Metabolism can often slow cardiovascually, we tend to 551 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: go downhill a little bit and cardiovascular risk goes up. 552 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: Fat distribution can change, so belly fat can start to 553 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: accumulate a lot more than it did before menopause. Cognitive 554 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: function can slide a little bit. By the way, all 555 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: of this or a version of this, happens with men 556 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: as well. Mood, emotions, sleep gets impacted, and I think again, 557 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: I think the thing is too like when this phase 558 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: of life happens. As Perry was talking before, he calls 559 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: it manopause, which is the kind of fun name, which 560 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: is true, It's called Andrew pause. It's the same. It's 561 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: the boy version of what happens with girls and same 562 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: with guys. Cognition, bone density, muscle mass, you know, sex 563 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: drive goes through the floor for men. You know, there's 564 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of things, right, But I think it's 565 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: trying to figure out how do I work with this 566 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: new reality, how do I work with this new physiological shift. 567 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: So I don't know how you are in this space. 568 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: And by the way, Perry and I have not prepped 569 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: at all. We haven't spoken about any of this. So 570 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 1: I'm going to start with exercise. And then also, by 571 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: the way, Perry has been is one of Australia's most 572 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: experienced trainers. So he's a trainer and a you know, 573 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: a master in nutrition. But so I believe that people 574 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: who are post menopausals should be lifting weights. Absolutely. I 575 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: think you should be training two to four times a week. 576 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: Whatever you do, whether it's body weight, whether it's pinloaded, 577 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: whether it's hydraulic, whether it's free weights, dumbbells, kettlebells, bar bells. 578 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: It's all way better than doing fucking nothing, right, Pilarates 579 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: reformer pilarates, it's all good anything where you are putting 580 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: your muscles under load, where you are stressing your muscles, ligaments, tendons, attachments, bones, skeleton, 581 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: and you are doing what I'm about to say is paramount, 582 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: and you are doing it in a progressive way. Right, 583 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: you're doing it progressively. You're using big muscle groups. If 584 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: you can, you prioritize compound movements. You know Scott's dead lifts, 585 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: push ups, things, we're using two or more joints and muscles. 586 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: Don't be afraid of intensity, but also be be wise. 587 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: Like intensity is relative to the individual. So I would 588 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: say Perry is stronger than me, So Peri's Peri's are 589 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: five out of ten, might be my seven, right, because 590 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: there's no generic we're not comparing ourselves to a generic 591 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: kind of intensity scale. So what I'm doing something, I'm 592 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: doing X exercise at X pounds for X reps, and 593 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: me I'm working at seven out of ten. Perry comes along, 594 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: does the same thing, and he's working out at five 595 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: out of ten because he's stronger, he's got more muscle. Right, 596 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: So but what we're trying to do is we're trying 597 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: to understand what is intensity for me. So once we've 598 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: got good technique, once we've got a little bit of 599 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: a training base, we're doing the right thing the right way. 600 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: Hopefully we've got some guidance, but we are trying to 601 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: work at a level where our body has got to adapt. 602 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: And I've spoken probably thirty times on this show over 603 00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: the last seven years about a thing called sarcopenia, which 604 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: are just muscle wasting. And it can be muscle wasting 605 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: when people get injured, it can be muscle wasting in 606 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: the elderly. It can be muscle wasting if we've got 607 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: some kind of a disease. But mostly the term sarcoprenia 608 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: is used in relation to people who are kind of 609 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: post fifty, post sixty. It was my major project when 610 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: I did my first degree at university. And yeah, it's 611 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: it's reversible. It's reversible, Like that's the fucking great thing. 612 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: It's not. It's really just a byproduct. Now this is 613 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: not science, this is me. But my guess is that sycoprenia, 614 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: especially when it's significant, is ten fifteen percent genetics and 615 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: eighty five ninety percent us, so, which is why you 616 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: can get someone I'm not going to talk about me 617 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: because that's self indulgent and egotistical. But someone like Perry 618 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: who's sixty one and got heaps of fucking muscle and 619 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: strong because he's never stopped training, because he eats great 620 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: and he does everything. So here's a sixty one year 621 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: old walking around in a forty year old body, so 622 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: to speak. So exercise is paramount for people who are postmenopausal, 623 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: and on top of the right intensity, we need absolute consistency. 624 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: Now that doesn't mean seven days a week. It might 625 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,399 Speaker 1: be three days a week, but three days a week 626 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: every week. Steps down off soapbox. There's a lot more 627 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 1: to it than that. But that's I'm opening the door, Pezza. 628 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: If you want to talk about food and or lifestyle 629 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: and or other stuff, we'll just see where we go. 630 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, beautiful, little Craigi. Soccopenia is a big area for 631 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 2: me as well. It's one of the major papers that 632 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 2: are writ about four or five papers on cycopenia. So 633 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 2: definitely understand and agree with you one hundred and ten 634 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 2: percent where you're coming from. What we need to realize 635 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 2: is that from the age of forty five and onwards. 636 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 2: The ability for the body to absorb protein at the 637 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 2: same levels as what we did when we're in our 638 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 2: twenties starting diminish. And that's why sycopinia is one of 639 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 2: the reasons why cycopenia comes across. Now with some menopause 640 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 2: of women peri post et cetera. What we're finding is 641 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 2: is that they do need to maintain a good source 642 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 2: of protein, and usually an animal protein source, because we're 643 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 2: looking into the mino acid blue seam which stimulates without 644 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 2: getting too technical here the m top pathway, which maintains 645 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 2: and creates muscle hypergaphy for people. So when women have 646 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 2: gone through menopause, one of the things I like to 647 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 2: look at is one what protein are having, the timing 648 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 2: of their protein, and then more importantly some other food groups. 649 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 2: And because we know that their hormones are changing and 650 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 2: theoretically we've looked at their blood works beforehand, we start 651 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,320 Speaker 2: looking at foods that are, let's say, fight are estrogen based, 652 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 2: so we look at legumes for example, so we know 653 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 2: like chickpeas and lentils and stuff like that, which will 654 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 2: help mimic the effect and modulate the receptors of all 655 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 2: the estrogen receptors in the body to help women. Let's 656 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 2: leave out some of the symptoms that they've got there 657 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,879 Speaker 2: the other things. I mean, red wine, there's a good 658 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 2: flood estrogen for women as well. If they want to 659 00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 2: have a glass and wine, it might help them out 660 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 2: at as well too, might take the edge off. But 661 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 2: the training very important. There's an amazing nutritionness in America 662 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 2: that I follow a fair whack and his name's Alan Allergron, 663 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: and he does a lot on women's menopause, will behavior 664 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 2: patterns and also doing a lot of research to see 665 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 2: what's going on. And the key factor is that he's 666 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 2: found is that women must wait train Like you were saying, 667 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 2: they must wait train in some way, so there's some 668 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 2: sort of resistance training. Two, their program intake must be 669 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 2: up high. And three they've got to keep good fats 670 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 2: in their body like olive oils, etc. To keep their 671 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 2: body functioning effectively. And what he's found is that when 672 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 2: women follow these protocols, the effects and side effects of 673 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: any form of perry post or any form of menopause 674 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 2: is actually diminished. And the interesting thing is the amount 675 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 2: of body fat that goes onto these women is very Really, 676 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 2: it's negligible. It doesn't increase that much. But when he 677 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 2: finds out with women when they're gone through menopause and 678 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 2: it's a psychological factor where they start to feel depressed 679 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 2: and they're getting the whole flushes, then they don't move 680 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 2: as much, then they won't eat as much, they start 681 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 2: to lose their appetite. We start to gun this down 682 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 2: with spiral and they have to try and fight that, 683 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 2: try and resist that feeling and go, you know what, 684 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,879 Speaker 2: I need to eat right now. I can't not eat 685 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 2: for twenty four hours, and I'll skip today and I'll 686 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 2: just stay in bed, and I'll become less active. Because 687 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 2: the old story, you don't use it, you lose it. 688 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 2: And if women are losing muscle and they're losing butt density, 689 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 2: it really becomes a big issue. And we know that 690 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 2: with women you hit it on the ball. There menutes 691 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 2: from forty five and onwards, women from fifty to fifty 692 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 2: five and onwards, calcium really starts to diminish. So vitamin D, 693 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 2: vitamin K two, and calcium are three areas that are 694 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 2: really important. And we do understand that vitamin D is 695 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 2: a hormone. It's not just a vitamin and it has 696 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 2: so many other impacts within the human body itself. So 697 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 2: there's some of my recommendations. The other one would be 698 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 2: creatine as well as a supplement. And we're trying to 699 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 2: try and drift off too much here, but that's really 700 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 2: important and women need to understand that the muscle is 701 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 2: not just a muscle, it's actually a hormone producer, produces 702 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 2: my kindes and they're the good feel hormones and makes 703 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 2: the body work effectively. So you know the important factors 704 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: of maintaining muscle mass, bone density and being active and 705 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 2: eating well and trying to get through these areas will 706 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 2: now help minimize the side effects of going through metopause. 707 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: I love it all right, don't want to ask you 708 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: a couple of things. Well, firstly, I want to say 709 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: one thing, creatine I didn't even think of, but I'm 710 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 1: on board with Pezza. There's I mean, it's the most 711 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:36,720 Speaker 1: researched supplement in the world, but there's really solid evidence 712 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 1: now to say that creatine is Obviously we know it 713 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: can be good for training and strength and recovery and 714 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 1: depending on individual response, athletic performance to an extent. But 715 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 1: we know that maybe it's even better at improving cognitive function. 716 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: There's a real brain benefit. But also I read something 717 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: yesterday which was a guy talking about a paper. So 718 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: this is third hand so for what it is, but 719 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: it's worth investigating that. Also, there's been benefits for people 720 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: who struggle a little bit with anxiety and depression that 721 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: and again I don't know this to be fact, but 722 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to do a little bit of searching myself. 723 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 1: But I feel like, you know, like when I'm on creatine, 724 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: which is all the time now and full disclosure, I 725 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 1: take I probably take about ten grams a day, which 726 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 1: is not huge, but it's probably more than the prescription, 727 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: which is generally five grams something like that. But I 728 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: take about ten grams to teaspoons ish a day. And personally, 729 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,320 Speaker 1: again this is my personal response, I feel fucking great. 730 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: And if I don't take it, I know, and it 731 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: actually helps my brain work better mental acuity, sharpness, memory, 732 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: all of those things we talk about cognitive function, you know, 733 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 1: being able to pay attention and focus for a long 734 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 1: period of time. For me, there's a difference with it 735 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 1: versus without it. So I use that the next thing 736 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 1: and lasting before we move on to another question, mate, 737 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 1: So what two part question? First part is what happens 738 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: as we get older to our ability to synthesize protein. 739 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 1: Does it diminish? Like I feel like we need a 740 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 1: bit more protein per kilo of body weight as we 741 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,919 Speaker 1: get older. Why is that? 742 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 3: Okay? 743 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 2: What we're finding is is that the intestinal wall is 744 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 2: causing the problem. It's the we can't absorb the same 745 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 2: amount of protein. So even though we're breaking down the 746 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 2: protein effectively, it's not been absorbed across the intestinal wall. 747 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 2: So we're starting to lose a little bit that nitrogen 748 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:40,280 Speaker 2: balance basically in either urine or in our put So 749 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,919 Speaker 2: we've gone, all right, we need to increase it. And 750 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 2: what's been interesting is now there's a lot of research 751 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 2: that come up a while ago regarding vegan protein, powders, 752 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 2: et cetera, being a vegan and having protein. 753 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 3: And what has just come up recently. 754 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 2: And it's really been an eye opening, is that two 755 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 2: fold one you can build muscle on a vegan diet 756 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 2: one hundred percent. We've now proved it, no problems at all. 757 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 2: It's difficult, but it can be done. But from the 758 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 2: age of forty five approx. Now, this is again generic 759 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 2: figures forty five and onwards, men definitely need animal protein 760 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:13,839 Speaker 2: to have the same effect, because as it goes after 761 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 2: forty five, we're finding there's a drop in the ability 762 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,439 Speaker 2: to absorb just pure vegan based protein, so it needs 763 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,760 Speaker 2: to be an animal based protein. So there's a difference 764 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 2: now between men and women, and we're finding that men 765 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 2: actually need animal proteins still have the same effect. 766 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 3: So there's that threshold. So we're saying that up to. 767 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 2: Forty five, if you want to be a vegan and 768 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,720 Speaker 2: you do all your stuff and have your vegan protein patters, 769 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 2: it's fine. But after forty five, men need to be 770 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 2: a little bit aware and go, you know what, and 771 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 2: one need to start increasing some animal protein in there 772 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 2: as well. We're having an animal base. Let's say weigh 773 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 2: protein powder to assist in muscle protein synthesis. 774 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 1: Shout out to all the vegans who now hate Perry. Now, 775 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: so my next question is this, that's funny. My next 776 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: question is, and you and I are not fans of 777 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: rdiis BECAUSEI eyes are you know, pretty inept A lot 778 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 1: of them anyway, So recommend the daily intakes everyone. I 779 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 1: think the I don't know the government or whoever the 780 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: fuck that whoever recommends these things, says something like point 781 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 1: eight grams of protein per kilo of body weight. So 782 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 1: let's figure that out. If we add a sixty kilogram 783 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 1: lady times point eight grams per kilo, that's forty eight 784 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 1: grams of protein, which is fuck all right. So and 785 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: again these are just numbers everyone, This is not a 786 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: personal prescription. So what do you think, ballpark perry, If 787 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: we're not working off point eight grams per kilo of 788 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: body weight the average menopausal lady, what's the ballpark range? R? 789 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 2: Okay, ballpark range? And it's funny enough, I did a 790 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 2: paper on this, so it contests let's say scientists regarding 791 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 2: the Aller point eight equivalent. My recommendation is the minimum 792 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 2: of one point six, and you can go right up 793 00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 2: to two point five grahams pe killer Grammer bodyweight problems 794 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 2: at all, And if you're struggling to physically eat that food, 795 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 2: throwing a protein shake through the day, because what's really 796 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 2: important here. We're now discovering that it's not so much 797 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 2: let's say, spacing out your protein. You know, I was 798 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 2: still believing doing that, But if you're struggling to eat 799 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 2: your food. If you let's say, have you lunch is 800 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 2: just a steak or whatever, a chicken, and then dinnercing 801 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,719 Speaker 2: and you want to have protein in between and have 802 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 2: a big protein shake and then one before we go 803 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 2: to bed. As long as you're hitting that protein mark 804 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 2: through the day, that's all that matters. So getting in 805 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: Let's say I'm going to pick a round number. We 806 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,839 Speaker 2: said sixty kilos at two grams for killigram a body weight. 807 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 2: As long as you're getting that one hundred and twenty 808 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 2: grams of protein in per day, that's the most important thing. 809 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 2: And people still struggle. I'm going to try and break 810 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:46,919 Speaker 2: it up into five different meals, so now you don't 811 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,240 Speaker 2: have to get it all in. That's all that's interesting 812 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 2: to me. And you know you're not an elite bodybuilder 813 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 2: or a super athlete. You did yourn average Joe biler 814 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 2: once have a great quality of life. So if you're 815 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 2: following the principles of having a good quality of life 816 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 2: and juvity, being strong, keeping yourself upright and standing and 817 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 2: having the ability to move comfortably, keep your protein and 818 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 2: take up pay for those figures and get it in 819 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 2: whenever you want through the day. 820 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 1: Joe or in this case, Joe Anne Blow, I'll get 821 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 1: a team. It comes as no surprise, I'm sure for 822 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: me to tell you that Perry and I spoke for 823 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 1: a very long time. We spoke almost for two hours, 824 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: maybe an hour and three quarters, and because of that 825 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: we decided to make this two parter. No surprise there. 826 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 1: Hope you're enjoying it. I think part two is actually 827 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: better than part one. I hope you enjoyed part one. 828 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 1: I think it gets better. Give us some feedback anyway. Also, 829 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 1: if you're not a member of the you Project Facebook 830 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:50,800 Speaker 1: group and you want to get involved, go there. No hooks, catches, agendas. 831 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 1: We'd love you to be part of that, and you 832 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 1: can ask questions that we can talk about on further shows. Anyway, 833 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 1: we'll call that the end of part one. Hidde up, Buttercup, 834 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 1: See you tomorrow.
