Health & Training Coach, International Fitness Model, and Actress Kerstin Schulze on How to Work With Your Body as You Age
12 Jun 2025
On today's episode, I have on the fabulous Kerstin Schulze. Kerstin is a global fitness, wellness, and personal transformation trainer who began her fitness journey at the age of 12, winning a silver medal at the Junior Olympics in Germany!From there, her life only got more interesting. She became a model, competed in fitness competitions, and ventured into acting. Trust me, this woman knows a thing or two about working with the body. She's the creator of partyanddiet.com, which perfectly captures her philosophy that you can have the best of both worlds - a little party, a little discipline, and a whole lot of balance.Now based in California, she's become the go-to fitness coach for celebrities including Chris Hemsworth (helping with his Thor transformation), Nicole Ari Parker, and Robert Patrick. But what I love most about Kerstin is how she's channeling all this experience into helping everyday women, especially those over 40, navigate the challenges of aging.Her philosophy is beautifully simple: it's never too late to start, and small, consistent actions create extraordinary transformations. At 51, she's living proof that you can maintain peak fitness while still enjoying life's pleasures. She also shares her game-changing tips on getting through perimenopause without losing your sanity!This episode is packed with practical advice on how to age fiercely, so grab your earbuds and let's go for a walk with Kerstin!Top 3 Key Takeaways1. 🔄 Navigate Perimenopause/Menopause Like a ProYour body is going through "second puberty" - stop comparing yourself to your younger self. Learn why your old strategies don't work anymore and get a new game plan for your changing hormones.2. 💪 The "Party and Diet" MethodBe strict Monday-Friday (high protein, low sugar), enjoy weekends. Use the 30-30-30 rule: 30 minutes after waking, 30-minute workout, 30 grams of protein.3. 🏋️‍♀️ Weights Beat Cardio After 40Strength training gives you stronger bones, better skin, and brain stimulation. Start with kitchen workouts: squats while microwaving, counter push-ups while coffee brews.Bonus: Specific supplement recommendations and a metabolism-resetting fasting protocol that delivers real results!WHERE TO FIND KERSTINwww.partyanddiet.comINSTAGRAM: Kerstin_SchulzeAnd of course, on HBO This is a public episode.
