🔹 About This Episode:
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, a leader in muscle-centric medicine who is completely reframing how we think about longevity. We dive into why muscle is not just about strength or aesthetics—but a powerful metabolic and endocrine organ that directly impacts brain health, inflammation, insulin sensitivity, and how you age. Dr. Lyon explains why the idea of being “healthy but sedentary” is a myth, and how intramuscular fat—not body weight—is one of the most overlooked drivers of metabolic dysfunction.
We explore the science of myokines, protein intake, sarcopenia, GLP-1s, and sarcopenic obesity, along with why building muscle early—and protecting it for life—is non-negotiable for resilience and cognitive health. Dr. Lyon also shares her journey through protein science mentorship, the future of muscle testing and imaging, and why she believes strength is a responsibility, not a luxury. Whether you’re new to training or optimizing for longevity, this conversation will change how you think about muscle forever.
🔹 What you will learn:
→ Why muscle is a powerful metabolic and endocrine organ—and how it controls aging, brain health, and inflammation
→ Why “healthy sedentary” is a myth, and how intramuscular fat drives metabolic dysfunction more than body weight
→ How to protect and build muscle for life, including protein strategies, training timing, and a muscle-first longevity approach
