Summary

Ep 92. My girl Dr. Gabrielle Lyon is back for another episode of “What’s the Juice?”! Dr. Lyon has been my personal doctor for 7 years now and has truly changed my life. She is a well-respected functional medicine practitioner and the founder of the Institute for Muscle-Centric Medicine®, specializing in thyroid health, lean body mass support, and longevity. In this episode, we build off of our conversation from last year about the importance of skeletal muscle and its immediate positive impact on your health. We get into the principles and key takeaways of her new book, “Forever Strong: A New, Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well” which is SO motivating and easy to understand. You’ll leave this conversation feeling ready to take action and not afraid to work hard for your health goals. 

Links from the ep: 

Here’s the juice:

  • Why you’re only going to get as healthy as your self-worth allows you to be

  • How to navigate a present bias and why you need to focus on future goals over immediate results

  • Why she sees anxiety as a distraction

  • The concept of having “guard rails” – how getting the consequence right really keeps you from repeating that action again

  • How the most successful people in the world are deeply aware of their weaknesses 

  • Asking yourself “what are the standards for my life?” vs abiding by a strict diet. What actions and personality traits are required in order to meet my goals?

  • The importance of raising the wellness bar for those around you 

  • Food addiction and how protein can help stop the food noise and curb emotional eating 

  • As we evolve our coping mechanisms need to evolve as well

  • Highlighting your patterns as characters by naming them and giving them a voice

  • Why low skeletal muscle and excess body fat can lead to fertility issues in both men and women 

  • Why we actually THRIVE during challenges, contrary to what we may believe

She helped me to get in the best mental and physical shape of my life at age 30.

0:18.5

And she taught me about the importance of building muscle

0:21.4

and eating enough protein and gave me the permission to actually eat what my body was craving

0:27.2

and needing for so long. In our first episode, we really dove into the science. We talked about

0:32.3

muscle hypertrophy and amino acids, and can you eat too much protein protein and why is animal protein a bit more ideal

0:39.3

than plant protein when it comes to the lucene content and we got really really nerdy and so many

0:44.8

of you loved that episode and you understood the science in there and it got you motivated okay

0:50.4

I know I need to do this I know I need to eat more protein. But how do I start? Especially when

you need to hear them most. We're going to be talking a lot about her new book Forever Strong,

1:21.3

which is out in two days. I will put a link to that in the show notes as well. I got to read an early

1:25.9

copy and it is incredible. If you enjoyed

1:28.5

the first episode that we did that was very science focused, but you kind of need it all spelled

1:33.4

out and reiterated in a way that's even easier to understand, definitely order her book because
