E347 | The 30/30 Protein Rule: Building Muscle & Burning Fat for Men's Health | The Prime Podcast

It's Week 2 of Men's Health Month! In this vital episode, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie Wyss of The Prime Podcast are talking about the single most important nutritional component for men: PROTEIN.

Many men in their 30s and 40s struggle with weight gain and low energy, wondering why they can't eat like they did in their 20s. This episode provides the answer. Dr. Skip explains how a man's metabolism shifts after age 22 and why building muscle is the only true way to burn fat and support healthy testosterone levels.

Discover the "30/30 Rule" – consuming 30 grams of protein within 30 minutes of waking – as the essential first step to "win the morning" and prime your body for fat burning. Learn why amino acids are the true building blocks of muscle, why working out fully fasted can damage your gains, and how "thinness does not equal fitness." This episode is a must-listen for any man looking to lose stubborn visceral fat, naturally rebalance Low T, and build sustainable strength and health.

Key Takeaways:

• To lose fat, you MUST build muscle. Muscle is your body's primary fat-burner.

• The 30/30 Rule: 30g of protein within 30 minutes of waking is critical.

• Amino acids are the essential building blocks for muscle.

• Wait 60-90 minutes after waking to drink coffee to avoid a massive cortisol (stress hormone) spike.

• Working out in a fully fasted state can cause your body to burn its own muscle for energy.

• Focus on strength and health, not just being "thin." "Thinness does not equal fitness."

• Losing visceral fat is the key to naturally rebalancing Low T.
