Does Your Metabolism Really Slow Down Wi...

Graham Ambrose and Angus Warburton
About this episode

Graham and Angus explore what happens to our energy needs as we get older. If we are not proactive, decline is obviously inevitable, from a remarkably young age, and weight gain exacerbates the physical degeneration.

Fortunately, it’s simple to prevent or reverse. The role of muscle is critical. Common myths are unpacked. Nutrition and staying active will help you stay strong, manage your weight and keep doing the things you love.
