Dr. Jaime Seeman, a board-certified OB-GYN with a background in nutrition and exercise science, walks through why she prioritizes **strength and muscle** over appearance-focused health metrics.
She discusses how common measures like BMI can miss meaningful differences in body composition, then frames skeletal muscle as a key driver of metabolism, glucose disposal, and overall resilience.
The talk explores muscle as an “endocrine organ” via myokines, and connects hormones (including testosterone and estrogen) to muscle maintenance, aging, and performance.
She closes with practical takeaways around resistance training, protein targets, and a short Q&A on protein timing and fasting.
