Interesting new study: Long-term resistance training with all-cause and cause-specific mortality: assessing dose-response and joint associations with aerobic physical activity GQ talked about it here: https://www.gq.com/story/how-long-you-should-strength-train-every-week-to-live-longer (could make for good social or email content). TLDR: - A large prospective study followed 147,374 adults for up to 30 years and examined the relationship between resistance training, aerobic exercise, and mortality. - Performing 90–119 minutes of resistance training per week was associated with: - 13% lower all-cause mortality - 19% lower cardiovascular mortality - 27% lower mortality from neurological diseases - The mortality benefits of resistance training appeared to plateau beyond approximately 120 minutes per week. - Individuals who performed both resistance training and aerobic exercise had lower mortality risk than those who performed either type of exercise alone. - The lowest mortality risk was observed in participants who combined: - 60–119 minutes of resistance training per week - 30–45 MET-hours of aerobic activity per week - For context, 30–45 MET-hours/week is roughly equivalent to: - 7–11 hours of brisk walking per week, or - 3–6 hours of jogging/running per week, depending on intensity. - The study was observational, meaning it found associations but cannot prove that the exercise itself directly caused the reductions in mortality. - The findings support current public health recommendations that encourage a combination of: - Regular resistance training - Regular aerobic activity - Long-term consistency

One of the things I've learned after my time in the strength and wellness world is that the obstacle people present with is often not the obstacle they're actually facing. Whether it's inconsistency, burnout, emotional eating, chronic stress, lack of progress, or self sabotage, many people spend years trying to solve the visible symptom while the real issue remains untouched. My lovely wife, Amanda has a unique ability to identify the deeper pattern that's driving the problem. This article explores a perspective that I think many coaches, trainers, and health professionals will appreciate: What if the symptom isn't the problem? What if it's information? A thought provoking read from Dr. Amanda Gale Bando. Enjoy. Feel free to post up and comment with your thoughts https://sacredstrengthsanctuary.com/blog/f/your-symptoms-are-not-the-problem

Does anybody know of a reputable Super Slow HIT Studio in N. Carolina.? Specific areas are near Cary, Apex and Holly Springs. IF so please advise. I have a client who spends a great deal of time travelling there and he would like to continue the work he is doing with me while he is in N. Carolina.
