 #15: Heart Rate Training with Gerry Halphen & MA | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:46:34

Have heart! Meredith A. sits down with Gerry Halphen, IRONMAN athlete, coach, catalyst, life-changer and friend to talk about the burning (or should we say “beating”) question: “Why do we REALLY care about heart rate training?”  Gerry was the man behind the infamous “Spark” that changed Meredith A’s life back in 2009.  A heart-warming episode with a good soul, it’s always a joy to tell old tales, think about new goals and keep things real with the Coach Formerly known as “Coach Monster.” Show Highlights In this episode, Gerry and Meredith A. discuss: - what heart rate training really is and what's the point of it - how does this impact new athletes - how does going SLOWER actually make you FASTER - what Kind of TIME FRAME does heart rate adaptation take  - why we MUST incorporate the other end of the training zone (anaerobic) - the best way(s) to determine your HR zones: Inexpensive and non-testing way. Generic 220-age (Max HR), then percentage of that sets zones Example, a 33 year old female... would be 187, then:  Zone 1: 112-130 (60-70%) Zone 2:  131-149 (70-80%) Zone 3:  150-168 (80-90%) Zone 4:  169-177 (90-95%) Field Testing / Resource: Joe Friel: https://www.trainingpeaks.com/blog/joe-friel-s-quick-guide-to-setting-zones/) Blood Lactate Testing   Stay in the Loop with the Merediths: Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/mereandmere   Instagram - http://www.instagram.com/mereandmere  Web: www.MeredithandMeredith.com Contact: mereandmere@gmail.com

 #13: Sugar: Junk Food, Part I | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:51:28

Taking a closer look at what’s lurking everywhere—SUGAR. In this Part I of several episodes about Junk Food, the Merediths are talking about sugar—and they don’t mean hugs and kisses. Sugar is everywhere. In the middle aisles amongst the 40,000 items that are stocked on the shelves. It’s not just the grocery store, either. Bookstores with coffee shops selling giant pieces of cheesecake and cookies as big as your head, drive-thrus, kiddo sporting events, movie theaters, gas stations, restaurants. Junk Food shows up in MORE PLACES than healthy food sometimes, and sugar is the main culprit. [Junk Food is actually an oxymoron.] We, as a culture, are OVERFED and UNDERNOURISHED. This episode covers awareness around sugar; how to navigate the food carnival without getting overwhelmed; shifting the focus from instant gratification to WELLNESS and how we FEEL as a major key; obvious sugar and hidden sugars; health dangers; cravings and more. Resources: Changes to the Nutrition Disclosure guidelines: https://www.fda.gov/food/guidanceregulation/guidancedocumentsregulatoryinformation/labelingnutrition/ucm385663.htm “Added sugars,” in grams and as percent Daily Value, will be included on the label. By law, serving sizes must be based on amounts of foods and beverages that people are actually eating, not what they should be eating. How much people eat and drink has changed since the previous serving size requirements were published in 1993 Package size affects what people eat. So for packages that are between one and two servings, such as a 20 ounce soda or a 15-ounce can of soup, the calories and other nutrients will be required to be labeled as one serving because people typically consume it in one sitting. For certain products that are larger than a single serving but that could be consumed in one sitting or multiple sittings, manufacturers will have to provide “dual column” labels to indicate the amount of calories and nutrients on both a “per serving” and “per package”/“per unit” basis. Examples would be a 24-ounce bottle of soda or a pint of ice cream. With dual-column labels available, people will be able to easily understand how many calories and nutrients they are getting if they eat or drink the entire package/unit at one time.     Takeaways: Start by reducing or eliminating your sugar-sweetened beverages (and artificially sweetened beverages while you’re at it!)   If you think I CAN’T - then start by having less sugar in your coffee, half # of pumps of syrup, cut your fruit juice with water. Every little bit counts! Subtle BUT CONSISTENT changes -make all the difference.   Stay in the Loop: 3HU: Healthy Happy Hardworking U - the New Program www.3HU.Life  *Register with code "podcast" for special updates *Registration for April closes on March 31st* 3HU on Social: Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/3hulife  Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/3hulife  Instagram - http://www.instagram.com/3hulife Sign up for Email Updates from the Merediths:  https://form.jotform.us/70326661605150 Merediths on Social:  Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/mereandmere   Instagram - http://www.instagram.com/mereandmere  Web: www

 #12: Between the Ears: Part I: What Do You Want? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:42:09

Our biggest asset and biggest enemy: what’s going on in our heads.  The “hedges” of our lives are our ears, and our brains are where the action is.  Thoughts shape almost everything in our lives. In this episode, we aren’t going to do a deep dive into the brain or major neuro reprogramming, but rather going to look at three small steps that we can take right now that will help us. Three Steps to Strengthening What’s Between Our Hedges Question 1: Identifying What We Want Spend some time experimenting with what you think you want.  If your goal is be a lawyer, spend some time with a few. Seriously. Best advice ever. Question 2: How Do We Get What We Want Identify the goal Create attainable goals Set a plan Set a deadline / and lots of little deadlines Stop wasting time and whining Be relentless Question 3: What is holding us back Do not give up on a dream because of the time it takes to accomplish it, for the time will pass anyway – Earl Nightengale How bad do you really want it? Are you getting in your own way? Challenge: MV: One way to fail is an "Aversion to Gratitude"... WOW. Out of this, came this question: What would happen if we all had a DAY with NO complaining?  Take the challenge!

 #11: 3HU - Healthy Happy Hardworking U | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:18:04

Are you TIRED of DIETS? We are too. Are you TIRED of feeling like crap?  We are too. Do you want to make your HEALTH a priority once and for all?  In this episode, Meredith A. explains what the heck 3HU is, and why YOU (and your significant other, friends and family!) need it, too. The Merediths are on a mission to help men and women who are struggling with their health, weight, lives and motivation.  Welcome to 3HU! Registration is NOW OPEN! www.3HU.life  (Next Program Starts April 1 and runs through May 13th) Register with a significant other or a friend and save $47!  Introducing 3HU. 3HU is a revolutionary nutrition, health and life coaching program that is changing lives for the better--one small, attainable step at a time. 3HU takes the best science and research—along with compassion, wisdom, and motivation—and breaks it down into powerful lessons with simple and smart action items to get you moving forward. 3HU means: Healthy Happy Hardworking U Healthy: “The first wealth is health.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson Think about it, without our health, what do we have? Nothing. Our body is our most precious treasure. 3HU teaches how to make health the number one priority. Happy: “You deserve to be happy. You deserve to live a life that lights you up. Don’t ever forget that.” ~Coco Calla 3HU sees you as a whole person, not just a number. And we treat you with the greatest care and respect as a member of our community. Hardworking: "Everything is hard before it is easy." - Goethe Anything and everything in life worth having takes work. This is a tribute to you—already hardworking you! And you know you can work harder on yourself and your health. We’re here to help you do it. U:  (University and YOU!) 3HU is a new way to learn and take action on your health. In 3HU, you’ll learn everything you need to know in order to be the very best version of YOU. You’ll be armed with YOUR personalized approach to nutrition - not a one-size-fits-all method. Approach 3HU with a beginner’s mind and you won’t believe what you’ll discover about YOUR health, YOUR nutrition, and YOURself. Why 3HU? Simply put: 3HU is everything you wish you had known about how to be healthy and finally feel GOOD in your own body. 3HU consists of a formula like no other program out there. What separates 3HU from every other nutrition/weight loss program is that we cover the information and science, sure, but it goes deeper than that. 3HU tackles the issues that lie beneath our weight, our obsessions, sabotage and negativity that can often tear down even our greatest efforts. Countless weightloss programs will tell you what and how much to eat. However, without understanding the why behind the food and how to break the unhealthy patterns, you are just "in" another diet to try and fail. In 3HU, we help you get out of your own way, once and for all. Unlike the giants in the diet industry, 3HU has been designed for YOU to succeed - and stay successful and accountable and healthy! We are not passively “watching our weight” or “counting our points”—instead, we are consciously and consistently taking steps to work on our health. 3HU Leads with Health. Living the 3HU Life will drastically improve the quality of your life. 3HU consists of a transformation in how we think about our body, food and our lives. It’s about the food, to a degree—but it’s so much bigger than food. We, as a culture, have become obsessed with the scale, numbers, counting and logging the data, as if our health and happiness is just a cut and dry math problem. But these are OUR LIVES--not a series of math problems! 3HU teaches us to see beyond the scale. When we make simple, lateral shifts to be the healthiest people we can be - the extra we

 #5: Zombie Nation: Sleep | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:58:47

Sleep. Oh, sleep. Do we, as a culture, have a sleeping problem?  Are we sleeping enough? Are we sleeping well? What do we do when we can't sleep? What are some contributing factors standing in our way? What can we do about it?  In this episdoe, the Merediths discuss: Did you know that a lack of sleep equivalent to being drunk? We all know we need to sleep more but we don't do it. Why? And how can we get better Know the facts/the WHY behind why we need to make sleep a priority beyond the obvious: lack of focus, low energy, cranky/irritable Expert, Dr. Andrea Matsumura, MD, Sleep Specialist, Portland, OR and a member of the Best Tri Club Ever (www.BestTriClubEver.com)- gave us some great guidelines to help set the record straight. Tips: Turn off electronics ONE hour before bed-aim for this, have your kids do the same! We live in a chronically sleep deprived society because we have too much light. Think about camping, when do you go to bed when camping? When there is no more light for most people. Set a routine for getting to bed- shoot for the same time to get to bed and the same time to wake up regardless of the day of the week. Constant catch up is a vicious cycle. Hence the wide excursion of I can get by with 5-6 then I crash for 10-11 we have trained our bodies to get by so to speak. Cut back on the Coffee. Caffeine, it has two properties, alerting and stimulating. It makes us feel alert. It's stimulating properties in the brain last longer. It's half-life is 6 hours. So at the very least DO NOT drink caffeine 6 hours before bed. If you cannot sleep don't stay in bed longer than 20 minutes and guess-timate this (clock watchers cause anxiety), then get out of your bed and do something relaxing, listen to relaxing music, mindfulness listening, read a boring book a REAL book with indirect light. No cleaning, computer, eating or drinking.

 #4: Meredith Who? | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:04:32

Meredith interviews Meredith (yes, really). In this episode, Meredith Atwood and Meredith Vieceli (the Merediths) give you a little bit of “who in the heck are they” information.  We learn why Meredith Vieceli (MV) went to one semester of law school, and Meredith Atwood (MA) stayed in the legal profession despite wanting to leave during the first semester of law school.  MV grew up on a real farm (as opposed to a fake farm), and really REALLY loves her kids.  MA REALLY loves her kids, too, but frames a carpe diem in a way that will make you rethink your biggest regret. In this raw episode, the Merediths discuss why Swim Bike Fuel nutrition is revolutionizing the way “dieting” should be done—(NOT A DIET!), and why women are breaking down the doors to the Merediths to be a part of the new program. The Merediths forgot to discuss their band instruments.  Guess they'll need to cover that in another show. “Women named Meredith are enigmatic. They are extremely intelligent but have a tendency to act amazingly stupid. They have loads of factual knowledge but little knowledge of the "ways of the world." There two varieties of Merediths. One variety encompasses the Merediths who use their intelligence to act pure and innocent but soon the truth of their scandalous side comes out. The other variety of Merediths are truly innocent. Decipher which type is which at your own peril.  ‘Don't let Meredith fool you; she seems stupid but she knows exactly what she's doing.  ‘Meredith is literally too good to be true.”   - Courtesy of Urban Dictionary.

 #3: Excuses and Lies | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:49:14

Episode 3 – Excuses & Lies “Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.” George Washington Carver In this episode, the Merediths explore the reasons we make excuses and lie to ourselves. They explore the areas of our life that we tend to make the most excuses. They discuss what motivation really is, and how it can be something than we can “count” on, not wait to happen. We’ll try to figure out why we do it and how our lies and excuses are holding us back? Urban Dictionary Definition of Excuses:  Tools of incompetence, used to build monuments of nothingness and those who specialize in them seldom accomplish anything. What are you making excuses about? WHY do we lie to ourselves and make excuses? Change is hard. Lack of self-control or will power Fear of failure AND/OR Fear of Success How are your excuses working out for you so far? At what point, do you decide to stop making excuses and start living in alignment with your goals and values. Finally, can excuses be a GOOD thing?

 #2: Chicken or Egg | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:48:02

Episode 2 – TheChicken or the Egg “Can't unscramble the egg no matter your wisdom and determination” - Kaleb Kilton In this episode, Meredith Atwood and Meredith Vieceli (the Merediths) explore which comes first:  exercise or eating right?  The long-time riddle “chicken or the egg” is explored in terms of fitness and food. Should you work on improving your nutrition before you begin an exercise plan? OR should you get moving first and then pay attention to what you’re putting in your mouth? MV argues why it’s FOOD! 1) Food is fuel. 2)  “Eat less and exercise more” mantra of all conventional diet and weight loss programs is setting you up for failure. 3) The right food will CHANGE you from the inside out without ever stepping foot on a treadmill. Whole foods to balance blood sugar, improve mood, cool inflammation, increased, steady energy, no more headaches, gastric issues. The natural consequence of eating well is that you will WANT to move more! MA argues why it’s EXERCISE! Or either – just do something! 1) Do whatever you can do 2) Personality Matters 3) Addictive personality considerations   **IMPORTANT DISTINCTIONS AND POINTS** 1) We’re assuming that we’re trying to GET HEALTHIER, not just lose weight. 2) Type of movement/exercise matters. 3) If we tried “Food” first and failed it’s because we've been taught the wrong info
