Why Strength Training Alone Will Not Stop Muscle Wasting!

In today’s episode, I’m diving into something that might challenge what you’ve always believed about health and fitness: strength training alone isn’t enough to keep your muscles healthy for the long haul. Yep, even if you’re lifting regularly, following the advice of every longevity expert, and staying active, you could still be facing early signs of muscle wasting, stiffness, and hidden joint dysfunction.

I’ll walk you through why this happens (even to bodybuilders and fitness fanatics), what’s really going on beneath the surface when muscles start to shrink, and how poor joint health silently sabotages your strength goals. You’ll learn why flexibility and nervous system regulation are key missing pieces, and how we approach this differently with our MAPP Testing system at the Stretch Mobility Coach studio.

If you're over 40, strength training consistently, but still feel stuck, tight, or fatigued—this one is especially for you. Tune in to hear how you can restore your joint health, reactivate dormant muscle systems, and finally build strength that lasts.
