Why You Should Try To Build Muscle

Building muscle isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s about survival. 💪
In this episode of The Dr. Layne Norton Podcast, I break down why muscle is the most underrated organ of health. You’ll hear how it lowers your risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, infections, Alzheimer’s, and depression — while also protecting against falls, fractures, and the effects of aging.
We’ll dive into:
- How muscle acts like an endocrine organ, releasing myokines that fight disease and slow tumor growth.
- Why more muscle means longer life, better quality of life, and faster recovery if you get sick.
- The myth that you “can’t build muscle after a certain age” — and why it’s total BS.
- How just 50 minutes of resistance training a week can change your health trajectory.
If you want to live longer, feel stronger, and age on your own terms, this is the episode you don’t want to skip.
