Weight loss isn’t the whole story—especially after 40.

Muscle plays a huge role in your metabolism, strength, energy, and how you age. In this episode on the Healthy Beyond 40 Podcast, we break down why building and preserving muscle should be a top priority—and how to start doing it in a simple, realistic way.

You’ll learn:

• Why muscle is “use it or lose it”
• How strength training helps burn more calories (even after your workout)
• What to eat to support muscle growth
• Easy ways to start if you’ve never lifted weights before
