How much protein do women really need as they age?
I would never recommend someone going below 100 grams of protein a day just as a blanket statement. The average woman is eating below that. The average man is also eating below that. Really? Also, there's a lot of myths surrounding training right now.
Oh, well, give them to me.
that women have to lift heavy, you don't.
Dr. Gabrielle Lyon is a powerhouse physician and creator of muscle-centric medicine, challenging outdated beliefs about aging and revealing a path to long life strength.
Everyone's looking for the fountain of youth. I got it. Why is it the fountain of youth? Because it anchors your metabolism, your metabolic health, your physical health, and your mental health. and your brain health. A lot of women do not relate to going to the weight room. They feel embarrassed. They feel like, I've never done it. I'm going to look foolish. I don't want to go. I don't know how to start. You do not have to start in the weight room, but you have to understand that starting anything new feels uncomfortable.
Let's talk about supplements so we can drill it down. If somebody says, look, I don't want to do 15 supplements a day. I don't want to spend the money.
I don't even know what I want. I typically don't talk about supplements, but here are the supplements that I recommend.
Hey, welcome back to the Tamsen Show. So if you clicked on this episode, it's probably because you're so tired of all the advice being thrown at you. Eat more protein, how much is enough, get stronger, but how do you actually do it, right?
What are the best sources of protein for muscle growth?
One day it's a new workout, the next day it's a new trend, and it's impossible to tell what's real and what's just noise. That's why I am so excited you're with me today because I'm talking to the top expert on muscle, protein, and longevity, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon. She is giving us the real science and turning it into steps that we can actually follow. Look at this. This is her new book. I got my hands on it. It's amazing. It's the Forever Strong Playbook. It's a playbook. So you're not just reading text. It's the first of its kind. I have never seen a book like this before. I am so excited for you to also get your hands on it because in it, she is giving us a blueprint to know what to eat. how to train and how to feel strong again, no matter what stage you are at.
Gabrielle, I am so excited you're here. It's great to see you again. I follow you. We've met each other several times now.
Do women need to lift heavy weights to build strength?
I consider you a friend. Yes. And I've been wanting to have you on the podcast forever because I really am such a fan of your work. I loved your first book. But the fact that you have a playbook now, why did you decide to do a playbook like this?
I've been thinking a lot about what inspires people to action. And people don't act when they're interested. But real action definitely comes from a combination of inspiration and education. And the goal of the playbook is to give people a field manual of exactly what to eat, how to move, how to think.
What role do supplements like collagen and creatine play?
how to recover, how to create a life that really ultimately works for them. And the ultimate goal is together we can make everybody stronger.
When I first saw it, I was like, oh my gosh, I'm gonna bring this with me to the kitchen, it's gonna go to the gym, it's gonna go by the bedside. I actually think this is gonna be something that people carry with them. A lot of times we read a book, we put it down, we have the audio, but this is something that's gonna be a living and breathing, I really believe, part of your life.
I'm really grateful, and that actually is the goal of the book, I spent a lot of time myself and my team thinking about the visuals that go into this book. Again, this is a thicker paper book. It has photos. It has visuals. So people can embrace really the content and to do it in a different way. We've all written or not written, but we've all read textbook type stuff. And for some people, that's great. But for other people, show me a great visual. on what to eat, how to move. They even copied my tattoos, which is so cool. Yeah, I love that. And even how to think.
