    • Menopause, Muscle & Fat Loss: What Active Women Over 40 Actually Need To Do | Bill Campbell PHD

      Menopause, Muscle & Fat Loss: What Active Women Over 40 Actually Need To Do | Bill Campbell PHD
      Feb 23 2026
      If you’re in midlife and suddenly feel like fat loss has become harder overnight, despite training, eating well, and doing what used to work, this episode is for you. Today I’m joined by Bill Campbell, PhD to unpack what the research actually shows about menopause, body composition, and “weight loss resistance”. We explore why some women gain body fat during this transition while others don’t, why hormone therapy isn’t a guaranteed fix, and the small but powerful lifestyle factors (movement, sleep, protein) that can quietly shift results. This is a practical, evidence-based conversation for women who lift, care about their health, and want clarity; not clichés. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN • Why menopause-related fat gain doesn’t happen to everyone • The 2–3 year window where body fat gain seems most likely • Why hormone therapy helps some women but not others • How daily movement (NEAT) drops in midlife without you noticing • The difference between training for muscle vs strength • Why lifting shouldn’t be treated as “calorie-burning cardio” • How much protein is actually supported by research (and why many women under-eat it) • Why poor sleep can create real weight-loss resistance • Whether fasted training makes any difference for body composition TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Menopause Weight Gain: Why It Happens to Some Women (But Not All) 03:41 Can Hormone Therapy Reverse Menopause Weight Gain? 10:23 DEXA vs InBody in Midlife: What My Results Revealed (And Why It Matters) 15:29 What Is the Final Menstrual Period (FMP) & When Is Fat Gain Most Likely? 20:46 Midlife Fat Gain & NEAT: The Activity Decline No One Notices 25:29 “I Just Have a Slow Metabolism” — Is Body Type to Blame? 28:02 Should You Lift Heavy or Light? The Truth About Reps, Fat Loss & Muscle 34:26 How Much Protein Do Midlife Women Actually Need? 40:11 Sleep Deprivation and Fat Gain: Can Poor Sleep Cause Weight-Loss Resistance? 46:02 Protein Timing vs Total Daily Intake: What Matters Most? 48:26 Fasted Workouts: Helpful or Harmful in Midlife?

    • Women 40+: How to Structure Your Week for Strength, Energy & Longevity

      Women 40+: How to Structure Your Week for Strength, Energy & Longevity
      Feb 20 2026
      VO2 max is one of the strongest, most measurable predictors we have of longevity; and for midlife women, getting your cardio strategy right matters. In this episode, I break down the real truth behind the “HIIT vs Zone 2” debate, and show you how to use both in a way that supports energy, brain health, and long-term performance, including what Zone 2 training really improves, and what HIIT actually changes in your body. You’ll also learn how to programme cardio in midlife so you increase VO2 max without disrupting sleep, strength training, or your ability to recover. By the end, you’ll have a clear weekly framework to build cardiovascular fitness safely in midlife, even if you’re time-crunched, plus two science-backed interval workouts that reliably improve VO2 max. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN • Why VO2 max is a powerful longevity marker (and why it matters in midlife) • The difference between Zone 2 and HIIT (and what each one is for) • What Zone 2 builds (aerobic base, mitochondria, recovery capacity) • Why Zone 2 often “feels pointless” for high-achieving women (and what to do instead) • How HIIT improves VO2 max, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic health • The brain benefits of Zone 2 vs Zone 5 (BDNF, lactate, blood flow) • Why “more intensity” often backfires in midlife (sleep, stress, injury risk) • The progression hierarchy that protects your joints and results• How many HIIT sessions women actually need (and when it’s too much) • Two evidence-backed HIIT workouts: micro-intervals + the Norwegian 4x4 • A simple weekly template that works even with 30 minutes a day • How to combine resistance training + cardio in the same day for best results VALUABLE RESOURCES 10 Habits That Help Me Reverse My Biological Age (Free Guide) 👉 https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/10-habits-guide A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Find out your biological age and how your daily habits are influencing it with DNA, bloodwork and microbiome testing with a Stride One membership - visit https://www.getstride.com/angela/ for 10% off.

    • Red Light Therapy: What Actually Works for Energy, Recovery & Anti-Aging | Ari Written

      Red Light Therapy: What Actually Works for Energy, Recovery & Anti-Aging | Ari Written
      Feb 16 2026
      Angela talks to Ari Whitten, the founder of The Energy Blueprint and an expert in mitochondrial health about his comprehensive approach to overcoming fatigue and optimising energy levels by addressing the cellular engines of the body—the mitochondria. Ari explains how modern lifestyle factors, such as poor light exposure, chronic stress, and nutritional deficiencies, signal the mitochondria to enter a defence mode rather than an energy-producing mode WHAT YOU’LL LEARN: The Cell Danger Response (CDR): Mitochondria have a dual role; they are not just energy producers but also environmental sensors that shift into a defensive state when they perceive threats Circadian Rhythm and Light: Proper exposure to natural light in the morning and minimising artificial blue light at night is critical for regulating the mitochondrial clock and ensuring deep, restorative sleep. Hormetic Stress: Introducing controlled stressors—such as high-intensity exercise, cold exposure, or heat—can actually strengthen mitochondria and increase their capacity to produce energy The Importance of Nutrient Density: Specific nutrients, including CoQ10, magnesium, and polyphenols, are essential "fuel" for the electron transport chain TIMESTAMPS [00:04:15] The "Energy Gap" [00:18:30] Mitochondria as Sensors [00:32:45] The Power of Red Light Therapy [00:52:10] Building Metabolic Flexibility VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy Find out your biological age and how your daily habits are influencing it with DNA, bloodwork and microbiome testing with a Stride One membership - visit https://www.getstride.com/angela/ for 10% off.
