642: The Health Benefits of Muscle with Dan van den Hoek

  • サマリー

  • When you think about healthspan and longevity, your first thought probably isn’t “muscle” - but it should be. Here are just some of the benefits of muscle strength and mass, particularly as you age: increased metabolic rate, improved insulin sensitivity, improved bone density, better joint health, improved balance and stability, cardiovascular health, preserving mobility, improved mental health, reduced risk of sarcopenia, and even enhanced fat loss. On this week's podcast, you’ll meet an exercise physiologist who will help you understand not just the “why” but also the “how” behind strength training.

    Listen and learn:

    • The importance of strength training, particularly in later life
    • The difference between Type I and Type II muscles
    • The dangers of lifting - myth vs reality
    • How to get strong without adding bulk
