Muscle isn’t just for bodybuilders—and it’s not just about looking good. In this episode of Wellness for Real at Any Age, we explore why muscle is your best medicine after 40. Discover how strength training and protein intake directly impact your lifespan and healthspan, what the “longevity gap” really means, and practical ways to build lean muscle starting now. With inspiring real-life stories, myth-busting insights, and a healthy dose of motivation, this episode will shift the way you think about aging—and your body’s potential.
