Description
Did you know that muscles are metabolic powerhouses that can help prevent diseases like Alzheimer's and diabetes? Dr. Martin has often referred to muscles as bins for the storage of glycogen. The bigger your bins, the better. That’s why Dr. Martin always tells listeners to get strong. Weight resistance exercises help build muscle and improve overall health. Muscles also secrete anti-inflammatory myokines, produce testosterone and growth hormones, which ultimately help burn fat. Dr. Martin explains in today’s episode.
