In this episode, I dive deep into the crucial role muscle plays in aging gracefully and staying healthy. As we get older, building and maintaining muscle becomes even more important—not just for looks, but for longevity, mobility, and overall well-being. I'll break down the benefits of strength training for aging bodies, from preserving bone density to boosting metabolism and reducing the risk of injury. Plus, I'll share some personal stories about the most common issues I see in the hospital. Included is a warning of sorts to keep an open mind, showing it's never too late to start lifting. Whether you're new to the gym or a seasoned pro, this episode will give you practical tips and motivation to keep moving and stay strong, no matter your age.
