On this episode Coach Nick and Coach Amanda are joined by Dr. Stacy Sims, a female athlete performance physiologist, to discuss the physiological differences in training and nutrition for women, particularly during perimenopause. In this episode the three talk about how training, fueling and recovery needs are all different in women vs men especially when it comes to perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Sims and Coach Amanda emphasize the importance of lifting heavy weights for women, as estrogen is responsible for muscle growth and strength. The three also highlights the benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and sprint interval training (SIT) for women's insulin sensitivity, mitochondrial function, and fat metabolism. They discuss deload weeks, proper nutrition, sleep and some of the gender differences. Lastly they discuss Low Energy Availability and issues surrounding it and Dr. Stacy Sims answers a couple interview style questions to close out the episode.

STACY T. SIMS, MSC, PHD, is a forward-thinking international exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist who aims to revolutionize exercise nutrition and performance for women.
She has directed research programs at Stanford, AUT University, and the University of Waikato, focusing on female athlete health and performance and pushing the dogma to improve research on all women.
With the unique opportunities Silicon Valley has to offer, during her tenure at Stanford, she had the opportunity to translate earlier research into consumer products and a science-based layperson's book (ROAR) written to explain sex differences in training and nutrition across the lifespan. Both the consumer products and the book challenged the existing dogma for women in exercise, nutrition, and health. This paradigm shift is the focus of her famous "Women Are Not Small Men” TEDx talk.
Her contributions to the international research environment and the sports nutrition industry have established a new niche in sports nutrition and established her reputation as the expert in sex differences in training, nutrition, and health.
Stacy currently holds a Senior Research Associate position with SPRINZ- AUT University, supervises PhD students, writes academic papers, and is on the advisory board of some cutting-edge companies, including Tonal Strength Institute, WILD.AI, and EXOS. She also has her own business (www.drstacysims.com), creating and delivering online learning material focused on women training with their physiology across the lifespan.
She currently resides at the beach in Mt. Maunganui, New Zealand, with her husband and young daughter.
