You're doing all the "healthy" things—walking daily, hitting yoga and Pilates—but still not seeing the physique changes you want... You might be missing the key stimulus your body actually needs to build and preserve muscle (and bone).

In this episode, Sue and Alex break down the pros and cons of walking, yoga, and Pilates—plus how to bridge the gap between movement and true body composition change. They unpack why muscle is the foundation for not just how you look, but how you age, recover, and perform in everyday life.
