In this episode, we take a look at the use of HMB (beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate) in masters athletes. While it’s not a magic bullet, HMB may offer benefits for maintaining strength and muscle mass as we age and during periods of lower activity, injury, or perhaps intense strength training phases.

We cover:

• What HMB is, how it relates to leucine, and why it matters for muscle preservation
• When HMB might be helpful for aging athletes
• Dosing strategies, timing, and how to approach it with realistic expectations

Tune in for a quick, practical breakdown of whether HMB deserves a spot in your training and recovery plan.
