Exercise as Medicine, Midlife Must-Dos, and How to Know If You’re Actually Building Muscle
Description
Today we unpack a groundbreaking new study showing exercise stops cancer from coming back after treatment. We also talk about what really matters for building strength and longevity, how to know if you’re actually gaining muscle, and which labs are worth asking for at your next physical. Spoiler: “toning” isn’t a thing, but progressive overload definitely is.
