  • Study Reveals Gender-Specific Breakfasts for Optimal Weight Loss
    Rachel notes the study suggests "men benefit from carb-rich breakfasts, while women should focus on fats," due to metabolic differences. Maintaining a calorie deficit is crucial. She highlights the role of sex hormones in metabolism and advises caution with low-carb diets for women, as they may affect energy levels and hormones.
  • Expert Tips on Postpartum Fitness from Rachel MacPherson
    Rachel advises light activity a few days post-vaginal birth and 6-8 weeks post-C-section. "Avoid high-impact activities initially." Key exercises include diaphragmatic breathing, walking, and gentle core work. Exercise boosts mental health, improves sleep, and increases energy. Prioritize protein and hydration, especially while breastfeeding. Focus on sustainable habits and self-compassion.
