What is the number one factor that transforms your health? I like to say that muscle changes everything because when you put more muscle on and when you contract that muscle, every time you contract muscle, it's like your body's creating this fabulous pharmacy of amazing compounds, things that reduce inflammation, help you focus more, improve your brain, improve your immune system, balance your blood sugar, and of course, muscle's metabolic spanx that holds everything in tighter and boost your metabolism. So if you want to get better at life, lift weights, build muscle, because it changes everything.
