Everyone suddenly wants protein. According to recent reports from Forbes, ABC News, Reuters and other industry publications, beef prices have reached record highs while whey protein prices have surged as demand continues to outpace supply. But this isn't really a story about protein. It's a story about muscle. For decades women were taught that health meant getting smaller. Smaller waist. Smaller dress size. Smaller body. Now we're entering a new era. An era where strength, muscle, longevity and resilience are becoming the new status symbols. In today's episode, Louise breaks down: ✓ Why beef prices are hitting record highs ✓ Why whey protein prices have surged by as much as 83% ✓ The surprising role GLP-1 medications may be playing ✓ Why muscle is becoming more valuable than ever ✓ How rising protein costs could impact women's health ✓ What every woman should focus on right now
Because this isn't just about food. It's about access. It's about longevity. And it's about the future of women's health.🎧 LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/35UovsfJZfat5xU6r6i55b?si=a54a6454c06445c4&nd=1 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/slay/id1393889958Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX5I8e0HAZxB-SEvp4oLCC

This is it. Twelve weeks of training. Long runs. Strength sessions. Early mornings. Fuel. Recovery. Self-doubt. Progress. And now there is only one thing left to do: Race.
You're TWO WEEKS away from your half marathon. And suddenly you're questioning everything. Did I train enough? Was my longest run long enough? Why do my legs feel terrible? Should I run this week? Should I carb load? How many gels do I need? Can I walk? What if I can't sleep? What if everyone starts faster than me? And the biggest question of all... What if I can't finish?
You've spent weeks training for your half marathon. And now that race day is getting closer... Your training plan is telling you to do less.
You’ve been training for weeks. You’re running further. You’re lifting weights. You’re fueling properly. You’re recovering better. So why aren’t you getting faster every week? And if your pace hasn’t changed… is your training actually working? In Episode 10 of the SLAY Stronger Runner Series, Olympian, coach and SLAY founder Louise Hazel explains why pace is only one measure of running progress, and why you could be becoming a significantly better runner without seeing a dramatic change on your watch.
You’re training for 13.1 miles. But does that mean you actually need to run 13.1 miles before race day? And if you haven't… how can you possibly know you'll finish?
