One Size Doesn’t Fit All

What if the fitness and nutrition advice you’ve been following isn’t actually built for you? Welcome to One Size Doesn’t Fit All—the podcast that calls out bad advice, oversimplified fitness trends, and one-size-fits-all nonsense while bringing you science-backed, practical strategies for real results. In this first episode, I’m diving into: ✅ Where I am in fitness, running, and strength training in my 40s and beyond ✅ Why the WHO classifies aging as a disease—and why that matters for you and your fitness--right here, right now ✅ A sneak peek into next week’s episode: How alcohol is secretly sabotaging your workouts and recovery. In this episode, I touch on how the World Health Organization (WHO) previously classified aging as a disease but has since revised that stance, now referring to it as a condition. This shift highlights an ongoing debate in the medical and scientific communities. While aging comes with biological changes, it’s not inherently pathological—it’s a universal process that varies widely from person to person. Lifestyle choices can significantly impact how we age, making chronological age alone an unreliable predictor of health. There’s also concern that framing aging as a disease fuels ageism and overlooks the fact that no proven clinical intervention currently exists to slow aging itself. Despite promising research and investment in longevity science, the reality is that aging remains complex and multifaceted, far beyond a simple disease model.
