Living Stronger Longer (Your Best Life After 40)

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

The Tortoise and the Hare (less than 4 minutes 3:42

Doug McGuff co-author of Body by Science "Best Way to Straighten Deck Chairs on the Titanic?" 58:48

31 weeks之前58:48

58:48

In preparation for article/speech that I want to write, I wanted to do a consultation with Dr. Doug McGuff both to check my understanding and to make sure I didn't make too many errors in describing the science behind my latest distinctions: 1. The difference between so called optimal and good results is very small and is likely irrelevant in the long run. In fact, what may be optimal for one goal may well be detrimental to a different goal. (health vs performance being just one example) 2. Obsessing over "optimal" may in fact be an obstacle to "good" results. 3. Expanding on Doug and John's suggested definition of health as being largely dependent on balance between anabolic and catabolic states. As an over riding principle, in the absence of which, most if not all other discussions on what's "good" or "bad" for you or for your health or for your results, are not necessarily wrong but wholly incomplete and besides the point without this context. (straightening deck chairs on titanic) 4. We discuss also why many studies for reasons above, and others may bear little relevance to real world results. (among many shortcomings, I don't care what you can accomplish in 6, 8 or 12 weeks.... because I and my clients are hopefully planning our health and fitness for a lifetime)…

What are realistic results for a new strength trainee at Sustainable Success Strength Training? 31:07

44 weeks之前31:07

31:07

This is my response to a question from a new client as to what this individual could expect. I know it's going to sound somewhat evasive in terms of stopping short of specifics, however the reality is, in my opinion, that the answer truly is "it depends". I've tried to list all the factors that can come into play that will increase or decrease what one can expect, with the "quality of the stimulus" (the workout itself, which is the only part I'm involved in) being only one of many factors.. Enjoy. Sharing and Subscribing is greatly appreciated!…

Dr. Doug McGuff interview one more time (author of Body by Science) (Studies/TRT/etc) 56:05

1 year之前56:05

56:05

In this one, we delve into the relative reliability of different types of studies when it comes to exercise and/or nutrition. In particular, epidemiological studies vs RCT's when double blinded, selection biases accounted for and large enough samplings and/or times to make conclusions more or less objective. When looking at many studies, we often only go to the "headline" and don't really check how well or poorly studies were done and whether the "headline" should be taken with however many grains of salt. Studies can be used to sell things and either the way they are done, or how the results are communicated can lend itself to a message that is less than objective. We also discuss the growing popularity of TRT, (testosterone replacement therapy) and some of the pros and cons. Speaking only for myself and not Dr. McGuff, this is a trend I personally find somewhat worrisome. The pharmaceutical industry stands to make a lot of money from this and, in my opinion is very prone to emphasizing the benefits and glossing over the side effects. Dr. McGuff points out that with any drug, how significant the therapeutic (desirable) effect, is often proportionate to how significant the side (undesirable) effects are as well. For me, I'll just go on fighting Father Time without the aid of pharmaceutical companies because my level of trust with those entities has never been lower.

In this second instalment, Daniel and I cover a wide range of topics, some of which deal with what truly matters in exercise and what might not be worth agonizing over. This shows that after long journeys, that start with the simple, then delve into much complexity, the destination often winds up right back at the simple. Daniel was (still is?) a Master Superslow instructor who worked closely with Ken Hutchins and did extensive testing with MedX medical lumbar machine.

I recently became aware of Jerome through the facebook page, "Mark's Health & Nutritional Group" where his youtube channel was recommended. After listening to a few of his videos, I was very impressed. First off, I was impressed by the thoroughness with which Jerome had done his homework, not just quoting study results he'd read or heard about, but rather evaluating various studies after having perused them closely and scrutinizing methodology. Secondly, I found his attitude very refreshing, as he continuously remained open to new information: instead of positioning himself as a final authority, he asked for and welcomed challenges to his assertions, showing a willingness to continue to learn and possibly change his views if presented with relevant facts. Finally, I enjoyed listening and seeing the way his mind works, drawing his points from his own rational and conscious reasoning, rather than parroting other "experts" avoiding any appeals to authority. This was a fun interview, and I am planning on doing at least one or two more with Jerome in the future. For those near his facility in Grafton, Wisconsin, I highly recommend taking advantage of his exercise instruction.

Q&A with Youtube watcher /commenter: Thomas Frayne 1:10:01

2 years之前1:10:01

1:10:01

Recently I received an email from Thomas Frayne who had watched my interview with Mark Asanovich. His questions primarily came from the field of athletics/sports, which is certainly not my emphasis. I tend to focus more on helping regular folks, particularly an older population, stay as strong as possible, as safely and efficiently as possible, in order to maintain and/or improve their functional ability in order to maximize life quality and "health span". I have some opinions on how athletes should strength train (same as everyone else) but again, not my emphasis. Below, I've pasted Thomas' email, and rather than reply, I suggested we have a chat on zoom and record it, so hopefully of interest to listeners/viewers: ******************* Hi Coach, I saw your pod with Coach Asanovich, I thought it was excellent. I have a few questions maybe you could cover in another pod, or even have Coach A back as it was a great interview- er/ee combination. Full disclaimer, I am into athletics, doing my sports science degree, hence the angle of some of my questions! You can take it I agree with the generality of what was being said so these really are just points I am curious on and would like to push you both on!! I hope this doesnt seem to pushy, but you got me thinking so hopefully this is just returning the favour! Do you have a place for dynamic actions in weight training, especially in the context of psychomotric theories. eg a basic deadlift extending knees and hips, produces similar moevement to extension in running / sprinting. What is your view on light weight / high reps to encourage capillarisation and endurance? (as opposed to outright strenght) I noted on another pod that in-season weights at for NFL players increased 20lbs progressively. In athletics we build similarly, but back off to allow a peak. Would Footballers not benefit from a similar taper? I disagree on your good-humoured but negative comparison of marathon runners and ballers. So I have a few points on which your views would be interesting Daniel Lieberman has shown humans evolved as endurance animals, outlasting faster prey. most top marathon runners incorporate strenght training and are hard bodied, even if slim - this does not mean they are less healthy!? Do you think the comments you made are more of a visual bias (i.e. you are used to seeing gym guys, me personally I look at bulked up guys and think inversely to you!) than science based? Take the same boston start line, these 'endurance' guys will do 100m in 11s, in training they might do 4 x 10 x 100m in 11", many 'strong' NFL players wouldn't last 100m at that pace. you mentioned many runners carry injuries, is this not the same maybe as people who train wrong (explosive olympic lifts etc) in NFL and also get injured? What leisure runner makes the time to stretch to ease off runner's knee even though the cause and cure are well known? How many gym hogs maybe cut the odd corner too? Coach A recently tweeted about gym deaths (!) I dont know many runners who die from running - maybe SADS, but this is present in all sports. How do you assess or weigh the western bias in the data and research? I'm Irish, and like the US and maybe Canada, maybe 60% of people are overweight, so of course strenght traing will benefit them. But are you/we ignoring the 90% of humans that the PhD students dont deign to test or research? Do you see excess muscle bulk as a stressor on the heart? An elite marathoner 70kg / 154lbs with 33bpm RHR average v. A person at 91kg, 30% heavier, either the heart is going to have to increase capacity or musculation or both, and / or increase frequency to pump blood around the extra mass.

In which I challenge to some degree the standard recommendations of 10,000 steps per day and/or 150 minutes of activity per week.

#7 Minimize Force and Delegate High Risk Tasks (7 of 12 steps for health) 12:29

2 years之前12:29

12:29

Clients sometimes come in with pain in knees and/or joints and/or shoulders and question whether intensely strength training might not be good that day, however they then go out and walk, snowshoe, hike, cross country ski or play various sports. My opinion is that they are confusing activities that are not intense on muscles but high force on joints, with an activity that is intense for muscles but relatively very kind to their joints. Strength training will not replace lost cartilage to a joint but keeping the joint's surrounding musculature as strong as possible will help to keep it functional. Sleep Strength train safely, briefly, intensely, 1-3x weekly. ( see #7) Move often at leisurely pace. More often, not more overall is better. Outside when convenient. Eliminate seed oils. Emphasize protein. Avoid or minimize foods that contain both fat and carbs in the absence of protein. Minimize force. Delegate high risk tasks. Minimize or eliminate alcohol, drugs.

"Different Tools, Different Rules". A Conversation with Arjan Meijer 1:00:19

2 years之前1:00:19

1:00:19

Arjan's youtube channel is one I've watched with interest over the years, and highly recommend. Not afraid to try new things, and adapting them to work for him, he exemplifies the concept, I've heard called "Principles vs Practices". I've come to suspect that many in the strength training community suffer from "confirmation bias", immediately rejecting anything that doesn't fit with their current paradigm of "how things should be done". To me, evidence of this, is when I see someone criticized when their methods agree with 70-95% of a like minded individual, but that individual fails to acknowledge the areas of alignment, but instead, jumps all over what they feel is "wrong". Others will definitely disagree, but I've come to suspect this may be at the root of why "HIT" or "rational exercise" or "evidence based training" (I hate labels, choose yours) has failed to make it into the mainstream. Arjan on the other hand, doesn't get caught up in hair splitting arguments, and just quietly does his thing getting great results in the process. Look for "Arjan Meijer H.I.T."…

A Conversation with Anibal Lopez Pro Mr. America and author of "Anibal Lopez - My World of Bodybuilding." 55:53

2 years之前55:53

55:53

ANIBAL LOPEZ This was a great conversation with 80 year old Anibal who learned of Nautilus Principles after decades of conventional training, and was able to open his mind to the logic of the approach. He met Arthur Jones, Ellington Darden and was trained by Jim Flanagan for about 2 years. (not to mention training with or meeting many legends such as Steve Reeves and Chris Dickerson) Today he has a very cool collection of vintage Nautilus machines and trains others as well. Check out the testimonial videos on his website "AnibalLopez 'dot" com" About Anibal Lopez : Anibal Lopez (born August 24, 1942) is an American bodybuilder. He was born in Puerto Rico to Francisco and Francisca Lopez. His family relocated to Bronx, New York in 1954 where he attended Public School 66, Intermediate School 98 – Herman Ridder School, and Columbus High School. As a boy, Anibal was fascinated with men of great muscular power who could perform amazing feats of strength. He read about Tarzan’s adventures in the comic books and watched former Olympic swimmer Johnny Weissmuller play the hero in the popular movie series. The first sport young Lopez participated in was gymnastics. He continued, however to be drawn to the “Strongmen”. His first glimpse of a bodybuilding icon was of Steve Reeves playing Hercules on the silver screen. Lopez would later recall, “That was when the bodybuilding ‘bug’ really bit me.” Amazingly, decades later, Reeves himself would tell Lopez that he considered him to be one of his favorite bodybuilders. Another early motivation for Anibal was seeing a guest posing exhibition by IFBB Hall of Fame bodybuilder Leroy Colbert, yet another childhood hero that decades later would become a personal friend. The next sport that Lopez excelled at was boxing. It wasn’t long, however, before his passion for both weightlifting and bodybuilding began to overtake his other sporting activities. He began to train at home with a barbell, a pair of dumbbells that he ordered from a Joe Weider magazine for $19.95 and a homemade wood bench. It was while living in the Throgsneck Projects in the Bronx that Lopez accelerated his weight training. He moved past using the meager equipment at home and started training at the sports center in the projects. It was at this time that he began to see impressive changes in his physique, both in size and strength. During this period of training at the Throgsneck center he won his first trophy in powerlifting. Lopez joined the AAU and entered his first novice bodybuilding contest, the “Mr. Wagner”, named so because it was held at the Wagner Youth Center in Manhattan. To his great surprise, he won the over-all title at the show. His singular goal after that first show was to win the Mr. New York City title. It was the beginning of a long and successful run as a professional in the sport. Lopez also served to in The United States Armed Forces. He was in the Army with the 101st Airborne Division; He found that he loved the challenge of jumping out of an aircraft in flight. He later served with the 19th Special Forces Group (Airborne) in the reserve and was credited with over 100 jumps, including 10 night jumps all from different aircraft. https://www.aniballopez.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anibal_Lopez…

Thought Experiment on Sarcopenia / would once a month training make a difference? 11:25

2 years之前11:25

My thoughts on the following: 1. The value of proper exercise on slowing down, stopping or reversing sarcopenia which has profound effects on quality of life (possibly longevity) and health care costs. 2. What the rate at which sarcopenia is thought to occur might tell us about how long it takes to "detrain" if we miss workouts 3. Based on #2, how even very infrequent exercise (signficantly more infrequent than what is needed for proper recovery) can still make a phenomenal difference compared to being sedentary.
