@drgabriellelyon Exactly right Dr Lyon! It is a choice and I am choosing to lift weights from here on out. I am 72 and will not expire in an assisted living home.

Weakness is not neutral. It is a risk factor for lost independence and declining quality of life. Choosing to remain weak increases vulnerability over time, while building strength supports long term function and resilience. If the goal is to live well and live long, strength is the requirement.

@eFoskaay @drgabriellelyon Congrats to you!!! That is absolutely amazing!

The human body does not reward intention. It adapts to repeated stimulus.
Success in strength, metabolism, and performance is not luck. It is the result of consistent effort applied over time. When the input is inconsistent, the output will be unstable. When the input is repeated, the system adapts and improves.
Show up, apply the stimulus, and repeat.

@artex18 @drgabriellelyon Imagine if someone commented on a man's clothes when he was talking about science. So weird.
English

@drgabriellelyon Imagine if a man came on stage to give a serious talk with one tattooed arm and shoulder completely bare. There’d be uproar and he’d be laughed off the stage. So why is it ok for women to dress in this weird sexual way when expecting serious engagement? It’s not even attractive.

When we talk about protein quality, it's not about being anti plant or pro animal for the sake of it. It comes down to one thing: how much of a given food do you actually need to eat to stimulate muscle protein synthesis?
Your body requires a specific dose of the amino acid leucine per meal to flip the switch on that process, and different protein sources deliver that leucine in very different caloric packages.
A small serving of whey or beef gets you there efficiently, while something like quinoa might require several cups and significantly more calories to reach the same threshold.
These aren't opinions, they're biological numbers. And they matter, because 100% of people do this one thing every single day: they eat.
How you think about the protein on your plate is directly tied to how you're going to age, how you're going to feel, and how well your muscle is going to serve you over time.
So wherever you are in your protein journey, the most important step is simply getting enough. Pick your sources, prioritize quality when you can, and make sure you're hitting at least 30 grams of protein at your key meals.

I’ve been cautious about GLP-1 medications. One of my primary concerns has been the loss of fat free mass (ie, muscle). But I was wrong.
The paper published last week (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41850248/) showed that most of the “fat free mass” that’s lost not only isn’t from muscle, but it’s mostly from shrinking the liver. Ironically, likely partly due to a reduction in liver fat (which gets counted as fat free mass on DXA scans). In fact, muscle strength was completely normal and the muscle:fat ratio was significantly improved.
There is still ample reason to be cautious, but the concerns about muscle loss appear to be overblown.

What if avoiding fish during pregnancy is a mistake?
Omega 3 fatty acids, especially DHA, are essential for brain development, and early nutrition plays a direct role in shaping long term cognitive health.
In this episode, we discuss maternal nutrition, fat quality, and why this developmental window matters.

@precishealth @drgabriellelyon Nothing beats getting your heart rate up. Anecdotal evidence... I knew three of my four great grandmas well into my teen years. What did they do different than their peers, walked to the grocery store and back. Just moving and carrying bags of food made a huge difference.
English

@drgabriellelyon true. even with glp-1s, we still lack a pharmacological way to replicate the metabolic benefits of resistance training. drugs can manage hunger, but they don't replace the functional strength and insulin sensitivity built through exercise.
English

What if weight loss medications are not solving the real problem?
GLP one drugs are highly effective, yet behavior change remains the limiting factor. People still struggle with hunger, nutrition, and exercise even with pharmacological support.
This episode with Dr. Christle Guevarra explores the disconnect between medical treatment and sustainable habits.

@lady_valor_07 Definitely not. A 40% tip is not part of any calculation.

After a great visit from @CoachMikeWeick and @CoachBobSurace I am excited to receive an offer from @PrincetonFTBL

Thanks @AmericanAir. Due to pending storms, my team and I needed to leave drill early. You were flexible with our flights allowing not just time changes, but date changes. Also, a few of us got upgrades where available. Appreciate the excellent treatment.
