Tonight I had a really great conversation with @Elena Maren , who runs a wonderful Skool community called Inflameless Living, and I wanted to share the recording here in case some of you find it helpful. I originally thought about putting this inside the Classroom, but the recording unfortunately freezes at times and the audio cuts out occasionally as well, so I don’t think it’s polished enough for that format but still, I feel the information and conversation itself were valuable enough to share here. We talked about some of the signs that can indicate someone’s physical capacity may be starting to decline, the progression needed to be able to get up from the floor safely, and a few lower body mobility and strength exercises that can help support that ability over time. A big thank you to Elena for taking the time to chat with me. I genuinely had a great time during the conversation, and I really appreciate her generosity, her willingness to help and the valuable insights and perspective she gives, which really make a difference. Thank you as well to all of you in this community for the support, encouragement, and engagement. I appreciate it more than you probably realize.❤️

Most people don’t realize they’re losing strength, balance, and mobility until everyday things start feeling harder: getting up from the floor, walking upstairs without using the railing, standing on one leg while putting on their shoes or turning the body or the head quickly without feeling unstable. These aren’t 'ageing problems', but signs that the body is asking for more movement, more strength, and better balance training. A simple self-check with 3 tests: 1. Stand on one leg for 20 seconds without holding onto anything 2. Sit down and get up from the floor without using your hands 3. Bend forward and try to touch your toes without bending your knees Give them a try (and share how did it go!)! If any of these felt difficult, it’s useful information... Let's work on it!

🦠💪 Your gut might be affecting your muscles and bones more than you think. As we get older or people around us do, it’s common to hear about things like loss of muscle strength and quality (sarcopenia) or having 'weaker' bones (osteoporosis). The gut is becoming a big part of the conversation. Different studies and recent scientific reviews have looked into the link between gut health and muscle and bone loss, specially when it comes to older adults. The gut is home to trillions of bacteria that help with digestion, inflammation control, immunity, and how our bodies use nutrients. When this balance is off (called gut dysbiosis), it may contribute to: 💪🏽Loss of muscle mass and strength 🦴Lower bone density 👨🏼‍🦽Higher risk of falls, fractures, and loss of independence Researchers are now talking about a 'gut–muscle–bone connection', suggesting that changes in gut bacteria with aging could play a role in physical decline. The good news is that gut health is modifiable and there are many things we can do (nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management...) to positively influence the gut microbiome, and our muscles and bones too. 👉 What is something you do to keep or improve your gut health?

I'm listening to a super interesting podcast where the guest is a doctor whose (controversial) work and controversial way of thinking I respect very much, specially because everything he says is supported by different serious studies. He desmitifies the dangers of cholesterol and explains that the real enemy is insuline resistance... The fact that he talked about insuline resitance, metabolic syndrome and obesity made me think about meal timings and beliefs and now I'm curious about yours. How many meals do you usually have per day? How often do you eat (how many hours between meals)? At what time do you have your last meal of the day? And your first one? Happy to read you all if you feel like sharing!
