We're excited to have a fellow female biohacker on the show this week! Kristin Weitzel, our good friend and biohacking expert, helps transform women into the healthy powerhouses they were meant to be. In this episode, she discusses many of the struggles women face when trying to lose weight, how we can optimize our health based on our menstrual cycle, the magic of ice baths and why everyone should own a red light device in their home. You can certainly hear her passion to help women around the world and will shock you when she shares what she sees in others during an ice bath session. Kristin is a health and high performance maven, certified fitness trainer, breathwork instructor, and performance nutrition coach with a focus on guiding women to optimal health. She has a bias toward action, always speaking with intention and purpose. Her achievements as a brand strategist, entrepreneur, and global marketer for Fortune 500 brands have given her the ability to travel far and wide and continually discover how best to advocate for life balance, and how what we do affects how we show up in the world. WELLPOWER, Kristin’s podcast, blends subject matter expertise, inspiring guests, and Kristin’s trademark wit and wisdom to lead clients and listeners alike. Her podcast allows Kristin to share with a broader audience just how far we can go in the pursuit of optimal performance. As a progessive voice, dynamic leader, and active biohacking proponent, she questions how far the human body can go and helps people take it there. SHOW NOTES: 0:51 Welcome to the show!3:52 Kristin Weitzel’s Bio4:54 Welcome Kristin6:08 What she sees working with women8:40 The importance of lab testing9:44 Why you need to lift heavy13:06 How to start a weight training program19:06 Story about Kristin’s biohacking retreat21:04 Concerns with protein deficiency25:26 Her advice on avoiding burnout29:38 How to listen to your body31:50 Intuition vs Fear35:17 The importance of community38:05 *Troscriptions Tro Calm39:14 Ice baths during your cycle42:18 Consistency is key43:29 Her advice to for overcoming the fear of cold47:35 The power of the mind51:40 What does the ice teach us after we get in? 51:50 Joe Rogan & Minimum Effective Dose54:15 Advice for a cold plunge56:24 What she witnesses about others in the ice1:00:18 Highlights on red light therapy1:04:03 Kristin’s final piece of advice1:05:34 Where you can find her1:06:40 Thanks for tuning in! RESOURCES: Warrior Woman ModeWELLPOWER PodcastIG: Warrior WomanLinkedIn: Kristin WeitzelSherpa SessionsMYX FitnessARX FitPodcast w/ Mike PullanoKion Aminos *Code: BIOBABESTroscriptions *Code: BIOHACKERBABESFlexBeam *Code: WELLPOWERLightPath LED *Code: BIOHACKERBABESSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donations
