  • #229 | The Key to Building Muscle and Losing Fat After 40 (And Why Eating Less Isn’t Enough)
    May 11 2026

    If you feel like you’re doing everything right—eating less, trying to move more—but the scale isn’t budging… there’s a reason.

    In this follow-up episode, I break down one of the biggest takeaways from my conversation with Dr. Luke: why building and preserving muscle is key to your metabolism, energy, and long-term health.

    We’ll talk about why eating less isn’t always the answer, how muscle impacts fat loss, and what’s really happening in your body as you age. I’ll also walk you through simple mindset shifts and practical ways to start focusing on strength instead of just the scale.

    If you’ve felt stuck or frustrated with your weight after 40, this episode will help you see things differently—and give you a better way forward.
