So I took a step back and I was like okay, how can I do this smarter?” (11:11) “Training someone with Hashimoto’s, you have to cue them and dial their program in differently than just the typical traditional person.” (19:27) “Starting to change the mindset of ‘I am going to in and kill it’, versus ‘I’m going to turn on all the right muscles, do functional compound, full body movements’… that's working out smarter not just necessarily as hard as we can.” (24:00)   Resources Mentioned Download your free Strong Guide Here Join the Thyroid Strong Online Program Here Urban Wellness Clinic Website Dr. Emily Kiberd Website Follow Dr. Emily Kiberd on Facebook | Instagram Muscle Medicine Podcast EY 055: Why Women of All Ages Should be Weight Training EY 062: Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Follow Dr. Mariza’s Virtual Book Club on Facebook | Instagram   Other Resources: The Essential Oils Hormone Solution by Dr. Mariza Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube
