In this episode of the Fit Physician Podcast, Jake breaks down how busy women physicians can build real, lasting strength—the Fit Physician way. Drawing from a live workshop, he explains why strength training is one of the most powerful investments you can make not just for fat loss or confidence today, but for bone density, longevity, resilience, and quality of life for decades to come. You’ll learn the biggest mistakes that hold women back, why “exercise” isn’t the same as training, how progressive overload actually works, and how even 20–30 minute workouts a few times per week can create extraordinary results when done with intention. Packed with real member case studies and practical takeaways, this episode will change how you think about strength—and show you what’s possible when you follow a plan designed for the realities of physician life.

In this powerful masterclass episode, world-renowned spine biomechanist Dr. Stuart McGill joins Jake and Dr. Suzanne to break down how the spine truly works, why most back pain isn’t “mysterious,” and how understanding tissue tolerance, load management, movement patterns, and assessment can completely change outcomes for patients and clinicians alike. He explains common injury mechanisms, why activities like heavy deadlifting can both build strength or create damage depending on context, how to identify specific pain generators instead of labeling symptoms as “non-specific back pain,” and the importance of personalized strategies over generic rehab advice.

Get ready for one of the most insightful conversations we’ve ever had on The Fit Physician Podcast. We’re joined by Dr. Spencer Nadolsky—one of the most trusted, respected, and sought-after voices in obesity and metabolic medicine—where he deep dives into all things GLP-1 medications: what they do, who they help, and what’s hype. Spencer talks about the evidence and why these drugs have become so popular, the brain-level impact on “food noise,” why they are changing the way we understand obesity as a disease, and what physicians and patients actually need to know about safety, side effects, micro-dosing debates, metabolic health, cardiovascular risk, perimenopause/menopause considerations, and long-term use.
