#239 ‒ The science of strength, muscle, and training for longevity | Andy Galpin, Ph.D. (PART I)
“The atrophy of fast-twitch fibers is almost exclusively the problem with aging and muscle.” —Andy Galpin
#228 ‒ Improving body composition, female-specific training principles, and overcoming an eating disorder | Holly Baxter, APD
“You will always lose muscle mass when you attempt a fat-loss phase, but the leaner you get, the greater the risk of that muscle loss because you no longer have that caloric cushioning to support that.” —Holly Baxter
The metabolic benefits of exercise & muscle mass
This video clip is from episode #205 – Energy balance, nutrition, & building muscle with Layne Norton, Ph.D. (Pt.2), originally released…
#206 – Exercising for longevity: strength, stability, zone 2, zone 5, and more
“We can do zone 2 our entire lives; we can do it safely, and it just yields enormous dividends.” —Peter Attia
Dispelling myths that excess protein intake increases cancer risk

#205 – Energy balance, nutrition, & building muscle | Layne Norton, Ph.D. (Pt.2)
“Lean body mass is inversely proportional to your risk of mortality after age 50.” —Layne Norton
#202 – Peter on nutrition, disease prevention, sleep, and more — looking back on the last 100 episodes
“I really think that in 10 years we’re going to basically be using designer-based immunotherapies to eradicate most solid organ metastatic cancers.” —Peter Attia
#196 – AMA #32: Exercise, squats, deadlifts, BFR, and TRT
“You have to differentiate between signal and noise. . .it’s easy to say testosterone causes heart disease just like it’s easy to say estrogen causes breast cancer. But if you’re actually going to go through all of the data. . .I think it becomes very difficult to make that case.” —Peter Attia
#179 – Jeremy Loenneke, Ph.D.: The science of blood flow restriction—benefits, uses, and what it teaches us about the relationship between muscle size and strength
“The real utility of using blood flow restriction is the fact that you can use it with very low loads…we’ve tried to combine it with high loads and in different aspects, and other people have run training studies with it, but it’s not additive; it doesn’t add anything more to high-low training” – Jeremy Loekenne
