Summary

Lots of experts have training and nutrition advice for midlife and menopausal women that is grounded in scientific evidence. Yet, the advice doesn’t always agree…and doesn’t necessarily work the same for everyone. That’s because, while there are general guidelines that are helpful for many women, in the end, we are all scientific studies of one, and no one approach will work exactly the same way for every single woman. So, you need to be willing to experiment and trust yourself, which no one knows better than this week’s guest, Hailey Babcock. Hailey offers her own training services and she partners with some of the biggest names in the business, helping turn their training and nutrition philosophies into practical advice on a personal level–something we talk all about this week.

Hailey Babcock is the owner of Hailey Happens Fitness. She is a past gymnast, runner, and triathlete, and has been a certified classical Pilates instructor for over 20 years. She has multiple certifications including TRX, kettlebell, barbell, and foundational training, along with being an ACE Certified Personal Trainer. Today she has made it her mission to convert women, especially those in their 40s and beyond, to the miracle of strength training. She uses her experience, training, and knowledge to help anybody looking to find more health and happiness through fitness.

0:00.0	You are listening to Hit Play, Not Pause, a feisty menopause podcast for active performance-minded women.
0:14.6	I am your host, Celine Yeager. Each week, I bring you advice from athletes, scientists, researchers, and other experts to help you feel and perform you best no matter what your hormones are doing.
0:25.0	This show is a production of Live Feisty Media.
0:30.6	Hello, strong feisty women.
0:33.2	Welcome to Hit Play Not Pause, the podcast where we believe there are many ways up the mountain,
0:38.5	and it is okay if yours is a different one.
0:41.8	So as many of you know, I have been in this business talking about health and exercise and nutrition

0:56.4	five years. And I've also helped some amazing pioneering researchers bring their ideas into the

1:07.7	Dr. Vonda Wright, who I'm also helping out in the publishing space.
1:12.2	And when you write books, and when you write articles and blogs and even do podcasts, honestly,
1:18.0	by necessity, you have to paint with a pretty broad brush because you're talking to literally
1:23.9	hundreds of thousands of people. So you're offering the best guidelines you can,
1:29.4	for the most people you can, based on what you know and science shows and what you believe.
1:34.3	But in the end, I think what's important to remember is that these are all just that. They are
1:39.2	guidelines. And each of us has to experiment and find what works best for us in our lives.
1:46.3	And that's where this week's guest, Haley Babcock, enters the chat.
1:51.3	Haley, who operates Haley Happens Fitness, partners with some of the biggest names in the business,
1:57.6	including aforementioned Dr. Stacey Sims and Dr. Vonda Wright, and she helps
2:02.3	turn their big training and nutrition ideas into practical advice on an individual level.
