Hot Take: Your Slow Light Weight Workouts Are Actually Chipping Away At Your Longevity
Update: 2025-10-28
Description
Ep 88: In this episode, Chelsey breaks down the science of Type I vs. Type II muscle fibers — and why most people never actually train the ones that matter most for longevity, strength, and athleticism.
You’ll learn:
- What Type I (slow-twitch) and Type II (fast-twitch) fibers actually do
- Why we start losing Type II fibers as we age — and how that impacts strength, power, and independence
- The difference between moving slowly and producing force quickly
- How to train your fast-twitch fibers with proper resistance training, not just cardio
- The link between fast-twitch muscle preservation and fall prevention, metabolism, and longevity
This episode will help you understand why building strong, powerful muscles isn’t just for athletes — it’s essential for everyone who wants to age well and move with confidence.
