Episode 273
One of the realities that we deal with as we grow older is muscle loss. We can plan to lose 3% to 5% of our muscle mass each decade after the age of 30. Often overlooked in that loss of muscle is our loss of power, the ability to move a given load quickly. We need to have muscle power.

Kyle and Jeff also chat about some of the health consequences of drinking diet soda. Some of it might surprise you and make you want to just stick with the water. Check it out.
