Why We Lose Muscle and Strength - and How to Stop It. With Justin Keogh

🏋️‍♀️ Extended version of this interview: https://www.patreon.com/posts/losing-muscle-122663984 🏋️‍♀️

We often focus on building strength and muscle, but rarely consider what happens when we start losing it—and the impact that loss can have on our health and daily life. As we age, sarcopenia (low muscle mass) and osteoporosis (low bone density) become increasingly serious concerns, affecting mobility and overall well-being.

In this episode, we take a closer look at sarcopenia with Dr. Justin Keogh, an exercise scientist and behavioral researcher. His work focuses on the benefits of resistance training for mitigating the effects of cancer treatment, combating sarcopenia in older adults, and even boosting athletic performance.

Enjoy!
