Summary
I hope everyone listens to this episode! My friend: once you go beyond the wonderful age of 30, you will lose muscle mass unless you intentionally and consistently work to maintain or increase it.
This rate of muscle loss can range from 3-8% per decade! Think about that! You could have 16% less muscle mass by the age of 50!
Why does this matter?
Contrary to popular belief, this isn't just a cosmetic issue related to body composition. It's not just about strength, balance and mobility.
We need to take action to prevent muscle loss and faciliate muscle building in order to stay healthy, prevent diabetes, have a healthy metabolism and much, more more.
Sarcopenia, or age-related muscle wasting, is both reversible and preventable. Today we will explore the systemic impact of sarcopenia on your health and discuss what you can do about it! Don't miss this episode!

| 0:32.7 | two topics. |
| 0:33.7 | I am super passionate about but not quite yet. |
| 0:39.3 | I wanted to start with a reminder, a very timely reminder that the end of the year is |
| 0:46.1 | sneaking up on us very quickly, which means January will be here before you know it. |

| 1:01.5 | The second Sunday of January is when we're going to start but there's going to be a bonus |
| 1:05.3 | week this time because I was going back and forth between should we start the first |
| 1:11.0 | Sunday of the new year or the second Sunday. |

| 1:17.4 | into awareness and self-care and making great choices right away. |
| 1:23.4 | But I also want to give people a little bit of time to get back into the swing of work. |
| 1:28.5 | Maybe they won't have been keeping up on emails or with podcasts through the holiday season. |
