Learn how to reboot your metabolism, build strength, and extend your life with this accessible new guidebook that demonstrates the importance of muscle for health and longevity from the founder of the Institute for Muscle-Centric Medicine®.

After years of watching patients cycle through her practice, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon noticed a pattern. While her patients struggled with a wide range of conditions, they all suffered from the same core problem: they had too little muscle rather than too much fat.

When we think about muscle, we tend to think about strength or aesthetics, but in reality, muscle accounts for so much more than that. As the body’s largest endocrine organ, muscle actually determines everything about the trajectory of health and aging. Many of the conditions Dr. Lyon’s patients were experiencing were actually symptoms of underdeveloped or unhealthy muscle.

Now, Dr. Lyon offers an easy-to-follow food, fitness, and self-care program anchored in evidence and pioneering research that teaches you how to optimize muscle—no matter your age or health background. Discover how to overcome everything from obesity to autoimmune disorders and avoid diseases like Alzheimer’s, hypertension, and diabetes by following Dr. Lyon’s powerful new approach to becoming forever strong.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Must-Read for Fitness Trainers & Athletes

Loved the breakdown of information. Easy to understand and very helpful accompanying PDF. Read this in 2 days and will keep going back to reference for myself and training clients! *Heard about this author/book listening to the MINDPUMP podcast!

Usable

This book is wonderful and full of advice with clear steps on how to apply to your daily life. Dr Lyon hits the nail on a head with addressing habits and mental framework as the most important ingredient of success. I’ve been following Dr Lyon on insta for a while but this book accented how much passion she puts in her work to help people achieve better life and health. I love it!

Motivational

Good up-to-date info. Motivating. The cadence of the narrator is a bit tough to listen to. Increase the speed to 1.2 and it’s tolerable.

Good idea & great knowledge but a big sales pitch

I love the education but I feel like I’m getting up sold throughout the whole book.

So informative!

This book just makes sense. It’s very easy to listen to. Most importantly, it works!!

Material is gold…the reading is not.

Please BUY this book, do not download. I have the reading speed at 1.35x and it’s still painful to listen to. But again, this book is a must READ.

Helpful, practical advice!

I really enjoyed how Doctor Lyon offered many practical tips and explain them well enough so I feel like I can carry them out.

Great Read for OTs/PTs!

This is a wealth of condensed, applicable information. As an outpatient OT I love having sound information to improve the lives of my patients. So many injuries, falls and function-limiting diagnoses can be prevented by growing skeletal muscle and being strong as we age! Loved this book!

Strong message🏆

Dr Lyon is a passionate expert and this book is an excellent resource to appreciate the strength of muscle centric medicine. Get strong and stay strong!

Great message

The book is great, and I love the overall message and content. The authors voice is a little distracting as her cadence goes up and down and drops at the end of most sentences. I had to crank the volume all the way up, which was slightly annoying, but I got used to it.
