Commune with Jeff Krasno : Body Composition After 40 with Dr. Joey Munoz

SHOW NOTES

After 40, testosterone drops, muscle mass shrinks by 3 to 8% per decade, and the scale stops telling the truth about what's actually happening to your body. In this episode, Jeff sits down with Dr. Joey Munoz, a body composition coach and founder of Strong Standard, to break down what's really driving that decline and what to do about it. Why body composition, not weight, is the real marker to track The DEXA scan, waist-to-hip ratio, and at-home tools worth trusting The science of muscle protein synthesis, and why "effective reps" matter more than total reps How to build muscle without gaining weight through body recomposition Protein targets, meal timing, and the supplements actually worth taking Grass-Fed Shark: fasted cardio and the "zone two fat-burning zone" put to the test This episode is for anyone in their 40s, 50s, or 60s trying to hold onto the body they used to have, and anyone who wants a clear framework instead of gym folklore.
