Muscle has quickly become one of the most talked-about topics in health and longevity, with many claiming that building more muscle is the single greatest predictor of a long life.

On today's episode, I break down the science behind muscle, strength, and lifespan, and explain why more muscle does not automatically equal better health or longer life.

I also explain what truly predicts longevity, such as mitochondrial health, nervous system balance, inflammation control, and recovery capacity, and how to find the personal sweet spot that supports long-term vitality.
