๐Don't wait for the new year to start getting healthy! Start building muscle and pairing that with more lean proteins and healthy fats to see results. Research proves muscle isnโt just about aesthetics โ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ง๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐ญ๐จ๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐ ๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ก๐๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐ก with a pฬณrฬณoฬณfฬณoฬณuฬณnฬณdฬณ impact muscle has on aging and disease prevention.
๐ข Hereโs what the research reveals:โ
โ
โ
Higher muscle mass is associated with lower mortality risk and better longevity outcomes.โ
โ
โ
Skeletal muscle significantly influences glucose metabolism, improving insulin sensitivity and overall metabolic health.โ
โ
โ
Muscle strength plays an even greater role in predicting longevity.โ

๐ How to build muscle for longevity:
๐ช๐ผ๐๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก ๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐ข๐ง๐ : Focus on compound movements (squats, push-ups, and deadlifts 2โ4 times a week) and progressive overload to stimulate growth and maintain functional strength.โ
๐ฅฉ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง ๐๐จ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ: Eat 20โ30g of high-quality protein per meal, prioritizing leucine-rich sources like eggs, beef, or salmon to support muscle repair and growth.โ

๐ด๐ผ๐๐ญ๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐: Incorporate daily movement (i.e., walking, pilates, or stretching) to enhance circulation, prevent stiffness, and improve overall muscle function and endurance.โ
