1
Where do you start?
2
So like you just mentioned deadlifting,
3
you mentioned running on a treadmill,
4
neither are things that I do.
5
So does Pilates or yoga count?
6
Does a HIIT class count?
7
Like if you're somebody like me where I work out at home,
8
if I walk into the hotel gym,
9
I don't know what to do.
10
Like I'll start that little circuit of machines.
11
I'm not quite sure how to position the machine.
12
Yeah.
13
Like, where do you recommend you start?
14
If you're thinking, you know, she's right.
15
I do need to move more.
16
Walking, I got it.
17
But I keep hearing about strength training and the importance of muscle mass.
18
How do you make this simple in a world where it's easy to get overwhelmed?
19
So I have an acronym that I use to help form the ideas of exercise for midlife people.
20
It works for everybody, critical decade.
21
But I call it facing your future.
22
Here are the four components we need to work into our life.
23
Facing your future.
24
F-A-C-E.
25
Face your future.
26
Number one, flexibility and mobility.
27
Meaning, if we do not move our joints through their full range of motion,
28
like an old car sitting in a junkyard, we will become stiff.
29
Because the natural history, meaning what happens in time with our tendons and ligaments,
30
is they become tighter and tighter and tighter.
31
That is a natural, that is the way nature happens if we don't invest in making it not so.
32
Pilates and yoga are amazing for maintaining flexibility, mobility of the joints.
33
It's also great for core, a solid core.
34
So that's number one.
35
Number two, aerobic.
36
We must invest in a healthy cardiovascular engine.
37
So how do we do that?
38
Well, we grew up in a time where we were high intensity all the time.
39
Yes.
40
We know now, and my philosophy on this has changed over the years because I'm a curious,
41
evolving person, that I want to work at the two extremes,
42
meaning most high-intensity interval training,
43
and I can name several brands of gyms that do this,
44
work you out in a mid-range where it's not light enough that you're not going to get hurt,
45
and it's not intense enough that it's going to stimulate real change in your body.
46
So these HIIT classes where you're working in the middle zones
47
of your heart range are a good way to get injured and see me in my office on Mondays.
48
So when I prescribe aerobic exercise to people,
49
I say walk or slow biking or low heart rate, any apparatus works.
50
I say walk, but hear me,
51
any apparatus works or the ground.
52
Do that.
53
and then we're going to sprint our guts out a couple times a week.
54
Sprinting does not mean you're Usain Bolt on a track.
55
Sprinting is a heart rate phenomenon.
56
So we're going to work as hard as we can go
57
so that we're almost so working hard we're going to throw up a couple times a week.
58
Literally, that sounds absolutely horrible.
59
No, but Mel, this is what happens.
60
You're going as fast as you can.
61
Your fast is probably faster than my fast.
62
I'm a short person.
63
Unless somebody's chasing me, I'm not running these days.
64
There is that.
65
But the concept is low heart rate most of the week.
66
So I'm asking you to walk every day.
67
Yep.
68
And then twice a week after you've done your walk,
69
I'm asking you just to go as fast as you can,
70
whether it's on a rower, an alpine, a treadmill.
71
But here's the kicker.
72
It's only 30 seconds.
73
You can do anything for 30 seconds.
74
So I'm going as fast.
75
I choose to do it on a treadmill.
76
So I'm just going to give your audience an example.
77
For my walking, I'm at an incline of four to five and a speed of about four.
78
So I'm just going along.
79
I'm listening to your podcast.
80
I'm learning.
81
I use it as a multitask learning time.
82
When I'm done with that for 45 minutes,
83
I take off all the apparatus because I need my brain to concentrate.
84
And I hit 11 on the tread,
85
the whatever, I don't even know how many miles,
86
it's fast as my legs can go.
87
And I go for 30 seconds and then I totally turn it off and I fully recover.
88
30 seconds with full recovery, four times.
89
This is what happens.
90
It sounds daunting.
91
It is not.
92
It's only 30 seconds.
93
That is going to stimulate more connections between our brain and our muscles to contract better together.
94
That is going to build a big cardiac muscle, right?
95
So let's stop wasting our time in the middle.
96
We can take classes because they're fun,
97
but unless you get these two things in on the ends,
98
in midlife, we're not stimulating ourselves enough.
99
So that's F, flexibility.
100
A, aerobic.
101
C, carry a load.
102
Notice I didn't call it weightlifting,
103
although it is weightlifting, but you can do it in your house.
104
You can pick up the five-gallon bucket and farmers carry across the front yard.
105
We need to lift weights.
106
We need to lift heavy in midlife because for women in particular,
107
around 45, we enter perimenopause where our regular cyclic hormones go up,
108
go down, go up, go down,
109
become total chaos as our ovaries retire such that by the time we're 50 and our ovaries have completely retired,
110
we do not have the stimulus of estrogen on our muscles anymore.
111
To stimulate our muscles to grow so that we do not become the one in three women who ends up frail
112
in a nursing home or with a broken hip,
113
which I'm happy to give you the dire statistics on that,
114
we must build muscle mass.
115
I am all for Pilates, for balance and flexibility.
116
I am not for anything except learning to lift heavy to build muscle.
117
So what if you've never done it?
118
There are great online programs.
119
We are not without resources these days.
120
This might be the time to invest in yourself by investing in an expert.
121
You take your car to an expert.
122
take yourself to an expert and have someone teach you the proper techniques
123
so that you don't get hurt walk you around the gym
124
so that you have a friendly face taking you around you don't need years
125
and years of personal training or strength conditioning coaching to learn you need a few lessons
126
and then you can build on that and
127
so once you're starting to lift weights we want to progressively load to lifting heavy.
128
No mamby-pamby pink weights for midlife women.
129
We can put down the little weights in the attractive pastel colors that...
130
I know, I'm being so patronizing,
131
that we lift 30 times.
132
I freaking love it because there's actually a really important reason around muscle mass.
133
Can you break down why building muscle mass is actually important for your health?
134
Well, if we think about this from a purely structural standpoint,
135
muscle is what will help us get up and down from a chair, right?
136
Want to live alone or have the opportunity to live alone?
137
You have to get up and down from a chair.
138
You have to be able to transport yourself to the bathroom.
139
You have to be able to lift addition to the microwave.
140
But if you want to enjoy your life,
141
you need to be able to be strong enough to get out of your house, right?
142
So from a very practical standpoint.
143
But muscle, like bone, are not just structures.
144
They are metabolic organs that talk to each other in a community.
145
So when a muscle contracts,
146
skeletal muscle, like your biceps contract,
147
it sends out all these communication factors.
148
One is called irisone.
149
It talks to the bone and helps you lay down more bone.
150
It is critical for glucose metabolism,
151
which is our ability to process our food, right?
152
It is critical for the brain.
153
It goes to the brain.
154
But that's not all.
155
Muscle releases a protein when you contract it called clotho.
156
Clotho was the goddess of the threat of life, right?
157
And it was first described in a journal called Nature about 30 years ago.
158
The simple act of contracting scuttle muscle causes our muscle to make this protein clotho,
159
which is the longevity protein,
160
and goes to all of our organs and keeps them functioning in a healthy, more youthful way.
161
And we know from animal studies that mice that can't make clotho die old, very young.
162
So do your muscles behave this way no matter how old you are or what shape you're in when you start?
163
They have the potential to behave this way.
164
Let me tell you about another study we did with this protein clotho.
165
So if I say to you,
166
contract your skeletal muscle, it's going to keep you younger.
167
And you're like, right.
168
Well, we did this study where we measured circulating levels of this protein clotho in three groups of people.
169
Clotho, the longevity protein.
170
I measured it in active people over 70,
171
and I measured it in sedentary people about 35.
172
Well, not surprising, people in midlife who were active had the highest level of longevity protein.
173
But you would think 35 trumps all.
174
It does not.
175
The active people over 70 produced more Clotho longevity protein than 35-year-old sedentary people.
176
Wow.
177
So there is not an age or a skill level when the positive stress
178
that we do with our bodies can't change our health.
179
And this is one simple example through a protein called Clotho.
180
So Dr. Wright, you've talked about flexibility,
181
aerobics, you've talked about carrying, which was...
182
Oh, weightlifting.
183
Carrying a load is weightlifting.
184
Carrying a load.
185
What's E?
186
Oh, E.
187
E is equilibrium and foot speed.
188
I'm so glad you brought us back to that.
189
Equilibrium means can we balance?
190
Every year from about 20,
191
the neuromuscular pathways that connect our brain to our muscles can degrade.
192
And that's why you reach over for something and fall over, right?
193
Or trip and can't catch yourself.
194
So in every exercise program I prescribe,
195
we not only have flexibility and mobility,
196
aerobic, carrying a load, but I teach people foot speed.
197
Meaning we're in my office,
198
my office is in a giant performance center,
199
and we're teaching people to rapidly move their feet because this is what I do.
200
I come into my office,
201
I throw my work bag next to my desk,
202
and if I'm not thinking when I get up from my desk,
203
I get up too soon and I will catch my foot on my bag.
204
Well, if I didn't have the foot speed to hop over my bag,
205
I would land flat on my face, fallen.
206
We break when we fall.
207
So, in my book, we can build all the muscle we want,
208
but if we have no balance and can't stay upright,
209
we can still break.
210
And so I teach people that.
211
And you know, something simple to regain balance that I ask people to do is brush their teeth on one foot,
212
like in tree pose, because that's one foot.
213
It's usually on a carpet or a bath track.
214
You're moving your body.
215
So if you alternate legs every day,
216
you will regain the core strength,
217
the muscle strength, to stay upright with a little bit of imbalance.
218
So Dr. Wright, you just mentioned that you have this exercise routine that you prescribe.
219
Yeah.
220
What is it?
221
On a weekly basis.
222
Okay.
223
We need to be spending at least three hours a week walking.
224
Okay.
225
Broken up into 45-minute sessions.
226
So put on your favorite podcast,
227
go learn all week, right?
228
So that's four, go for a walk four times.
229
At least four times a week, right?
230
At a brisk pace, not so fast that you're out of breath,
231
but not so slow that you can solve world peace in your conversation.
232
A minimum of twice a week,
233
minimum of twice a week,
234
we must learn to lift heavy.
235
And listen.
236
How heavy?
237
Yeah, I know.
238
I don't expect you to power lift right out the door,
239
but what I do expect you to do is learn to lift your own body weight.
240
Every woman should be able to do 11 push-ups, regular push-ups.
241
On the knees, okay?
242
No. Oh, my God.
243
But listen, you can build up to that.
244
I used to teach classes at Pittsburgh called Start,
245
and I did it for nine years.
246
My starters started out with 51% body fat.
247
They could not hold a plank and literally couldn't walk around the track.
248
Over a three-month period, we met with them twice a week.
249
We did a variety of weight-bearing exercises is they not only completed a 3.2 mile walk run
250
which was our goal they could hold a plank for two minutes wow i know
251
so 11 push-ups 11 push-ups start on our knees
252
but we got to be able to get to we have
253
to be able to get up upper body strength is critical for women got it
254
so we've got walking four times a week at a brisk
255
pace we have 11 push-ups you got to be able to
256
lift your body weight we have to start by learning to lift our body weight
257
and progress until we can lift heavy And what lift heavy is defined as,
258
that is the weight in an upper body push-pull.
259
So something like a bench press,
260
something like a pull-up, lower body push-pull,
261
something like a squat, something like a deadlift.
262
heavy means what you can lift four to six times to keep it simple for my people like four times
263
which we want to lift to to fatigue listen you don't get there overnight
264
if we're starting at at at just body weight it may
265
take you six months maybe nine to learn the technique
266
and to work up but it is so worth it
267
and listen i have plenty of examples of women starting in their 60s There's no age limit on this.
268
So heavy is an individual thing and it just is something we work towards.
269
So walking, lifting at least twice a week,
270
twice a week when you're comfortable with walking,
271
I want you to get your heart rate up really high.
272
And you had a very simple way of doing that.
273
30 seconds.
274
Complete recovery.
275
It takes me...
276
My example is I can get my heart rate up to about 186.
277
And then I...
278
Two or three minutes, I completely recover.
279
It's down to 130, 140.
280
And four times you do that.
281
Four times.
282
And then that's it.
283
And then I work on balance every day when I brush my teeth.
284
And foot speed.
285
You can jump around.
286
You can skip rope.
287
But that's something else.
288
Bones require impact.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
