Eat More, Lift Heavier: Why Chronic Dieting Is Sabotaging Women

If you’ve been working out consistently, eating “pretty healthy,” and still not seeing results — this episode is going to connect some major dots. In Part 1 of this conversation, I’m joined by women’s health coach and doctoral candidate in sports nutrition and exercise science, Sarah of *Strong By Sarah*, and we’re breaking down why so many women are stuck in a cycle of: Chronic dieting Over-exercising Low calorie intake Hormone disruption High cortisol And stalled fat loss We talk about reverse dieting for women, why eating more can actually improve metabolism, and how lifting heavier (instead of living in bootcamp cardio) changes your body composition and long-term health. We also dive into: What leptin is and how chronic dieting disrupts hunger and satiety Why under-fueling leads to binge-restrict cycles The real reason your workouts might not be building muscle Cortisol and belly fat in women over 35 Hormone testing, bloodwork, and advocating for yourself Why muscle is critical for longevity and perimenopause If you’re a midlife woman in your 30s, 40s, or 50s who feels like your body isn’t responding the way it used to — this episode will help you understand why. This conversation is especially important for women navigating: PCOS Perimenopause Hormone imbalance Metabolism changes Weight loss resistance And in Part 2, we go even deeper into nervous system regulation, alcohol, confidence, and why so many women use drinking as a coping tool.
