| 0:19.8 | Welcome to AMR Answers. This is Sarah Bowen-Shea. And this is Dimity McDowell. |
| 0:24.8 | Otherwise known as Dimity McDowell, the fitness instructor. Well, I'm Dimity Davis in that world. |
| 0:30.3 | So just so you know, I like to keep things incognito because Dimity is such a, you know, such a vanilla name that I could be Jill Smith or I could be |
| 0:37.9 | Jill Davis. It doesn't matter. Right. And I mean, you can literally slip under the radar. I mean, |
| 0:42.8 | you're just so petite, you know. Yeah, not, not memorable at all. Not loud. Not kind of, yeah, |
| 0:48.8 | in your face. Yeah. So, yeah. So I'm Dimity.idey, I'm Dimmity Davis, just in case you want to come to the Glendale YMCA after hearing about my strength class. |
| 0:58.8 | Because I want to hear about your strength class. You mentioned it because you told me that you got a new pair of Topo shoes because they now do gym class shoes. I'm sure there's a better term for it than that. Yes. And I don't know that style name. |
| 1:11.9 | I mean, they're minimalist runners, right? You can definitely run in them too. But they're just very, |

| 1:32.8 | which when you're like doing squats and balance stuff, like that is really, to be, that's important, |
| 1:38.3 | especially if I'm demonstrating because God knows I don't like to have a lot of eyes on me sometime. And I'm like, okay, and I'm going to demonstrate a single leg deadlift and I need you, |
| 1:47.5 | you know, so like I don't want to be like teetering on like a big platform, right? |
| 1:51.7 | And also I have to say that our guest that is going to be on the Friday podcast on the March, |
| 1:57.4 | or March May 30th episode is talks a lot. It's all about strength training and kind of how to |
| 2:04.3 | minimize the effects of perimenopause and menopause. And she then does talk a bit about doing |
| 2:10.1 | jumping drills. And she said how it's good not to have a real, a ton of cushioning under your foot. |
| 2:15.8 | So it sounds like it could be a great jumping shoe as well. |
