Why Muscle Matters More than BMI when it Comes to Health | EP71


Listen Later

New research suggests that how much muscle you have is actually a far more reliable measure of mortality risk than BMI.

Having muscle is the cheat code to a longer, healthier life, leading to a lower risk of:

 💉Diabetes 
🫀 Heart Attack
🧠 Stroke
😢 Depression
🦴 Osteoporosis
📉 Slower metabolism

Considering most women don’t have a huge amount of muscle and we naturally start to lose what we do have from the age of 30… we thought this was a pretty important topic to cover! 

Listen now​ to find out: 

💪 How ‘muscly’ do you actually need to be (spoiler - not that muscly)!
💉 How more muscle helps fight diabetes risk
🤔 Why muscle is correlated with higher quality of life
🙌 How to get started with weightlifting

PLUS! What to do if you feel you’ve left it too late 😬
