Do you suffer from the quintessential “dad bod,” have difficulty losing weight, have low muscle tone and/or experience feelings of depression? It’s possible that you could have low testosterone. Low-T is becoming increasingly common, currently affecting 4 in every 10 men over the age of 45 according to the Urology Care Foundation. If this sounds like you or someone you know, then check out my podcast with Ali Gilbert.
Ali is a trainer and fitness expert who specializes in men’s health. She is highly sought after for her unique approach to training that includes a combination of nutrition and hormone optimization to improve body composition.
Ali is a Golf Digest top 50 golf fitness professional and is the founder of the personal online coaching brand Metabolic Golf, where she trains busy professionals who are aiming to improve their golf game through strength, nutrition and lifestyle changes. She is also a partner at Greenwich DX Sports Lab and the director of performance at CLAY Health Club + Spa in Port Chester, NY.
During our show today Ali and I dive deep into the importance of measuring testosterone levels in men, especially those over 40, why so many men are suffering from low T, how our environment, lifestyle, sleep, nutrition and training affect testosterone and what we can do to overcome some of these obstacles through lifestyle changes. If you’re over 40 or simply just interested in understanding more about testosterone and how to improve your hormones through lifestyle, then this podcast will provide you with immense value.
