Summary
Getting older doesn't mean getting slower, as long as you make critical changes to your training and how you fuel.
Dr Stacy Sims, the revolutionary exercise and nutrition scientist who wrote Roar unlocks what female athletes need to do before, during and after menopause to thrive. Her newest book, Next Level, smashes the stereotypes of female aging and menopause and outlines exactly what female athletes need to get faster and stronger (and look amazing!).
You'll learn:
- what is happening in our bodies starting in our mid-forties that prevents us from responding to training like younger athletes
- wow to shift your training to create the metabolic and training responses we want, and
- what to do besides running to boost power, strength, and performance

This week's show brought to you by:
Magnesium Breakthrough from Bioptimizers.
Supplementing with magnesium before you go to bed has been shown in scientific studies to…
- Increase in muscle oxygenation during high intensity exercise
- Reduce inflammation
- Significantly improve sleep quality
- Improve aerobic exercise capacity when training.
When you're looking for a magnesium supplement, make sure you take one that is organic and has all 7 unique forms of magnesium.
My recommendation is Magnesium Breakthrough from Bioptimizers because it's made with the highest quality, organic magnesium and contains all 7 critical forms. Most other magnesium supplements are synthetic and only contain one or two forms of magnesium, which is simply not enough.
For an exclusive offer go to magbreakthrough.com/runtothetop and use code run10 to save 10% when you try Magnesium Breakthrough. Plus, they offer a full refund up to one year after your purchase, no questions asked.

| 1:04.4 | your true athletic potential when you're in your 20s and 30s you have lots of |
| 1:09.3 | room to grow to get faster and stronger but the tricky part is that we can't train like |
| 1:15.2 | we're in our 20s and 30s anymore. Our bodies work a little differently now and |

| 1:33.2 | And for women, we have some very unique challenges |

| 1:39.8 | Our hormones can feel like they are going haywire and we get quite a few unwanted |
