In this conversation, Darin sits down with his longtime friend, athlete, and powerhouse human Gabby Reece to talk about what it really takes to grow up without shutting down. They go into childhood chaos, the gift and cost of competitiveness, and what it means to stay "dangerous" in the best way as you age — in your body, your relationships, and your purpose. Gabby opens up about losing her father young, being uprooted from the Caribbean, using sport as a lifeline, and eventually navigating fame, motherhood, and a marriage with Laird Hamilton under intense pressure. She and Darin get radically honest about boundaries, addiction, partnership, sleep, hormones, and why women's wisdom in midlife is massively undervalued. This episode is part love letter to long-haul relationships and part tactical playbook for anyone who wants to keep evolving instead of checking out.

If you're a woman over 40 trying to build muscle, burn fat, and not lose your mind in the process, this episode is for you. I'm breaking down the biggest takeaways from Dr. Gabrielle Lyon's interview with Thomas DeLauer - specifically her approach to body recomposition and what it really takes to grow muscle and lose fat at the same time. As an IFBB bodybuilding pro who's coached women for almost 20 years, I'm giving you my honest thoughts, what actually works in the real world, and where most women go wrong once hormones, aging, and metabolism shifts start kicking in! We're talking protein targets that actually make sense, how much you really need, what supplements are worth your time, and why creatine isn't scary. I'm also getting into resistance training basics, how many sets you actually need per muscle group, and what a realistic weekly training plan looks like if you're trying to change your body in your 40s, 50s, and beyond. If you want to build muscle, burn fat, stay healthy, and look hot doing it without drowning in misinformation, you're in the right place! You've been running on empty long enough.

This is a Fan Fav episode.

Dr. Gabrielle Lyons, a functional medicine physician and muscle-centric advocate for metabolic health and longevity, shares startling data that 73% of people are either overweight or obese.

Let's end that crap right here. Key areas of re-information we're focusing on in this episode include: Cycles of crash dieting are absolutely destroying your health Move away from the fat phobic model to an empowering muscle centric model Health at any size is devastating people and is not that same as loving yourself Follow Dr. Gabrielle Lyon: Website: https://drgabriellelyon.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWPQJeWz4pvccA3lIoZ7j1Q Twitter: https://twitter.com/drgabriellelyon Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drgabriellelyon/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/doctorgabriellelyon/ Podcast: https://drgabriellelyon.com/podcast/ Original air date: 3-13-23 CHECK OUT OUR SPONSORS Vital Proteins: Get 20% off by going to https://www.vitalproteins.com and entering promo code WOI at check out.

Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.comIn this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Heidi van den Brink; one of the only scientists in the world studying the ovarian transition from fertility to menopause. Together, they unpack what textbooks and wellness influencers often miss: the biology behind how your ovaries, uterus, metabolism, and nutrition interact across every stage of a woman's life. Dr. Heidi reveals the never-before-seen dynamics of the ovarian cycle, how follicles develop in “waves,” and what really happens during the menopause transition. They discuss how undernutrition, obesity, and metabolic health shape reproductive hormones; why early menarche and delayed ovulation matter for long-term health; and the surprising connection between your gut microbiome, bile acids, and fertility. If you've ever been told to “balance your hormones” with seed cycling, apps, or supplements, this episode separates myths from mechanisms.

In this highly requested AMA, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon addresses the most critical questions surrounding male hormone health. Dr. Lyon tackles the fear, stigma, and misinformation surrounding Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT), revealing why a low testosterone level is a major predictor of serious health issues like heart disease, bone fracture, and obesity.She breaks down the current medical consensus on TRT, the risks of replacement, the truth about dosing, and what every man over 40 needs to know about their hormone health. This is a must-watch to separate the bodybuilding myths from the medical facts.Chapter Markers0:00 - Intro: Low Testosterone is a Predictor of Heart Disease1:12 - The Penile Shrinking Myth: What Caused the Viral Frenzy2:20 - Testosterone Levels: The Truth About Aging in Men3:44 - The First Step: What Labs to Ask Your Doctor for4:22 - Why Men Need to Check Their Estrogen (Estradiol)6:13 - The Medical Cutoff for Low T and Androgen Sensitivity7:27 - Low T is Linked to Fatigue, Depression, and Fat Deposition9:27 - TRT and Cardiovascular Health: Is it Protective or a Risk?10:36 - Erectile Dysfunction Predicts Heart Attack Within 3-5 Years12:30 - The Stigma: Why Doctors Don't Check Testosterone13:00 - TRT vs. Steroids: Defining the Line14:21 - Infertility and TRT: What You Must Know15:18 - Safety: What are the Risks of TRT for Men?16:33 - The Stigma: Why Doctors Don't Treat Low T17:15 - TRT and Obesity: Treat Concurrently or Wait?18:10 - Menopause vs. Andropause: Why Men Don't Have to Decline19:34 - Testosterone Boosters (Ashwagandha, Tongkat Ali)26:11 - Different Forms of Testosterone Administration28:09 - Intranasal Testosterone for Less Impact on Fertility30:38 - Managing Expectations: How Long Until You Feel Better?33:00 - TRT and Muscle Gain: The Highs and Lows of Dosing36:47 - The Win-Win: Low Risk, High Reward39:00 - Blood Flow & Erectile Function: Cialis and Exercise40:17 - Semen Quality as a Marker for Overall Male Health41:29 - Parenting and the Cost of Unhealthy Humans41:45 - How to Raise Testosterone Naturally (The Pillars)42:29 - Low-Dose Cialis for Cardiovascular Health (Preemptive Strategy)43:59 - Dr. Lyon's TRT Journey and Early Concerns46:00 - OutroKey Takeaways:Low Testosterone is a major health risk. Low T is linked to an increased risk of bone fracture, heart disease, obesity, and diabetes.TRT is often protective. Contrary to the long-standing myth, replacing low testosterone to a healthy range does not increase the risk of cardiac events. It is, in fact, protective against cardiovascular disease.Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a canary in the coal mine. ED can predict a heart attack within 3 to 5 years.Men can maintain high T levels. Testosterone levels in a healthy 75-year-old can be just as good as in a man in his 20s.The solution is often concurrent. For an obese or overweight man with low T, concurrent treatment with TRT and a lifestyle intervention is often the most responsible approach to provide the motivation needed for weight loss.Low-dose daily Cialis (2.5mg to 5mg) may be a viable preemptive strategy for cardiovascular health due to its blood flow benefits.This episode is brought to you by:Manukora - Get $25 off your Starter Kit at

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this special episode of The Drive, Peter hosts a strength and conditioning roundtable with three experts in the field—Gabrielle Lyon, Jeff Cavaliere, and Mike Boyle. Together they explore why maintaining muscle mass, strength, and power is essential for healthspan and longevity, and examine how resistance training supports metabolic resilience and injury prevention across the lifespan. The conversation covers practical strategies for getting started and staying consistent, the importance of a protein-centered diet tailored to age and activity level, and approaches to resistance training for peri- and post-menopausal women—including tendon care and optimal programming. They debate single-leg training versus heavy bilateral lifts, share knee-friendly lower-body options, and highlight exercises that belong in the “graveyard” due to poor risk-reward ratios. Finally, the group discusses youth sports specialization, emphasizing the long-term value of variety for developing lifelong athletes. We discuss: Personal career journeys and philosophies of each guest that shaped their approaches to strength, conditioning, and lifelong health [3:30]; Why so few people engage in resistance training despite its proven health benefits [8:30]; Mike's low-stress, high-consistency method for training beginners to resistance training [18:45]; How resistance training enhances metabolic health and body composition even in lean, highly active endurance athletes [25:30]; The dominant role of nutrition in shaping physique and achieving low body fat, the synergistic effect of resistance training, and the unrealistic expectations about muscle growth and fat loss [28:30]; Why Jeff advocates for five meals a day, and why meal timing matters less than overall protein intake and caloric consistency [38:00]; Optimizing protein for every stage of life: quality, quantity, and guidelines for diverse diets and body types [44:15]; The advantages of unilateral lower-body training over heavy bilateral lifts: impact on strength, athleticism, recovery, and functional movement [51:45]; Rethinking heavy squats and deadlifts: risk-reward, aging bodies, and the case for reverse lunges and other single-leg alternatives [1:01:15]; Adapting with age: Gabrielle on injuries, hip dysplasia, and the shift to smarter training [1:10:15]; Exercises that belong in the “iron graveyard”: unnecessarily risky exercises and their safer alternatives [1:19:15]; The downside of early sports specialization in children and the long-term benefits of encouraging kids to play multiple sports [1:25:00]; Advice for preventing an Achilles injury: calf strength, ankle mobility, and listening to pain signals [1:33:15]; Shoulder pain: how to keep training the upper body when shoulder pain limits pressing movements [1:40:45]; Effective strength training strategies for women before, during, and after the menopausal transition [1:43:15]; Best practices for strength training and athletic development in children, and the pitfalls of early sports specialization [1:50:30]; How to foster healthy habits and an interest in fitness beyond playing sports [2:00:00]; Something each guest has changed their mind about in the last five years [2:04:00]; and More.

Dr. Shah's top lifestyle tips to truly move the needle for your health QUOTES “The elimination of ultra-processed food will move the needle more than anything else you could potentially put into your body.” “Now people have access to their data, but step two is having personal responsibility to understand what that data means, why it's important, and following it yourself.” “There's a balance that our biology needs to live under. It needs to have some stress, and it needs to have time to relax. It needs to have heavy exercise, but it also needs to have just light movement… You have to find where that balance lies in your own system and it's always going to be changing. And you're not going to know this until you check some of these biomarkers.” RESOURCES MENTIONED

In a powerful episode of the Dr. Gabrielle Lyon show, I sit down with my mentor, Dr. Donald Layman, to directly address some of the most common protein myths. We react to a controversial clip from the Huberman Lab podcast with Dr. Christopher Gardner, offering a different perspective on the conversation about protein intake, metabolic science, and dietary guidelines.Dr. Layman, a pioneer in protein research, breaks down the outdated science behind the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), the flaws of nitrogen balance studies, and why a protein-conscious approach is crucial for your long-term health, not just for building muscle.This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who wants to cut through the confusion and understand what the science really says about protein, from its role in metabolism to why a grain-based diet may be leaving you deficient.Chapters0:00 - Intro: The Protein Debate0:32 - Reacting to the Huberman Lab clip1:31 - The flawed science of nitrogen balance studies4:15 - The RDA's misleading "average requirement"7:47 - The gross extrapolation of "deficiency"10:41 - The original protein study subjects12:15 - Why the RDA is much higher than the "minimum"13:17 - Debunking the average American's protein intake15:00 - Is there a storage depot for excess protein?17:34 - The myth of protein being "wasted"19:30 - Why some say protein metabolism is misunderstood22:42 - Defining the RDA and EER25:06 - Why Dr. Gardner's argument is flawed27:17 - Why the nitrogen balance technique is wrong32:37 - How to rectify the protein conversation34:04 - Why we need to compare protein to carbs41:09 - Comparing metabolic consequences of overeating carbs vs. protein48:00 - Why a protein-conscious approach is critical50:41 - Debunking the "incomplete" plant protein myth55:28 - Do plant proteins have enough leucine?1:02:45 - The myth of complimentary proteins1:05:22 - The minimum protein for metabolic benefits1:07:38 - The upper limit of protein1:09:10 - The problem with "amino acid oxidation"1:10:46 - The problem with amino acid supplements1:13:15 - How do you diagnose protein deficiency?1:18:13 - Debunking the "Americans eat the most meat" mythPaleoValley - Get 15% off automatically at https://paleovalley.com/DRLYON Timeline - Get 20% off your order at https://timeline.com/LYON LMNT - Free sample pack with any purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/DRLYON Our Place - Use Code DRLYON for 10% off sitewide at https://fromourplace.com/DRLYONDisclaimer: The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Podcast and YouTube are for general information purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Tobias Kohler, a professor of urology at the Mayo Clinic, to discuss a topic most people are afraid to talk about: men's sexual health.Dr. Kohler shares eye-opening insights, backed by over two decades of clinical experience and research, on the powerful link between foundational health habits and male sexual function. They reveal why erectile dysfunction is a critical "check engine light" for heart disease and how building muscle and exercising can improve not just your erections, but your overall longevity.This conversation goes beyond simple fixes, providing actionable, science-based information that every man needs to hear.This episode is brought to you by: Puori - Get 20% off sitewide with code DRLYON → https://puori.com/DRLYON Cozy Earth - Use code DRLYON for up to 40% off - https://cozyearth.comBONCHARGE - Use code DRLYON for 15% off your entire order - https://boncharge.com/DRLYONOneSkin - Get 15% off with the code DRLYON – https://www.oneskin.coChapters0:00 - Link between muscle mass & erections0:52 - Erectile function1:13 - The truth about penis size & penile implants2:32 - The foundational pillars of men's health8:48 - Erectile dysfunction is an early sign of heart disease16:14 - The role of anxiety, alcohol & cannabis on ED24:29 - The "use-it-or-lose-it" organ29:31 - The truth about PDE5 inhibitors (Viagra & Cialis)46:46 - The "C"s of urinary frequency54:43 - The connection between muscle, testosterone & sexual function1:02:07 - Is there a point of no return for penile health?Erections: A “Check Engine Light” for Your HealthOne of the most striking points from the discussion was Dr. Kohler's perspective on erectile dysfunction (ED). He described it not just as a sexual problem, but as one of the earliest "check engine lights" for heart disease. The blood vessels leading to the penis are much smaller than those in the heart. As we age, plaque can build up in these vessels. This process, known as atherosclerosis, affects the smaller vessels first.This means if you're experiencing persistent issues with erections, it's a strong indicator that you may have vascular problems that could soon affect your heart. As Dr. Kohler put it, "If the penis is failing, you should assume you're going to have problems with your heart soon until proven otherwise." The good news is that anything good for your heart—like exercise and a healthy diet—is also good for your penis.The "Use-It-or-Lose-It" OrganThe conversation also tackled the surprising phenomenon of penile shortening. When the penis goes into a "garage" for an extended period—meaning there is a consistent lack of erections—it can lose length. Dr. Kohler shared that a consistent lack of erections for just three months can lead to a loss of 1-2 centimeters in length due to the formation of scar tissue. This is why he calls the penis a "use-it-or-lose-it" organ. The key to maintaining penile health is to exercise the penis through erections, and tools like a vacuum erection device can be used for penile rehabilitation.Muscle Mass, Testosterone, and Sexual FunctionFor many men, this is where the conversation gets personal. Dr. Kohler highlighted the direct correlation between muscle mass and erectile quality. Studies show that men with more muscle mass have better erections and higher testosterone levels. The reverse is also...

If you've been struggling with brain fog, anxiety, irritability, or just not feeling like yourself in midlife, this episode is here for you to connect the dots. I'm shining a light on a hidden transition that impacts so many midlife women—but almost no one mentions it: the neurological shift of perimenopause. I share my own experience of feeling completely destabilized by brain-related symptoms I never expected—and how I finally discovered they were actually part of a profound brain-hormone transition happening under the surface. Then we cover the real science behind what's happening in your head, and why your symptoms are valid AND can be managed with the right tools in place. Tune in to this episode to get my top non-negotiables for a healthier brain, and tackle midlife sharper, stronger, and more fully YOU than ever! IN THIS EPISODE Why are brain-related symptoms so common during menopause? The impact that hormonal changes have on all body systems Two incredible perimenopause and menopause resources for you What goes on at a cellular level in the brain during menopause Top science-backed strategies for improving brain function How to join my FREE perimenopause and menopause summit! QUOTES“When I recently surveyed several thousand women in perimenopause about their most disruptive symptoms, something fascinating emerged. Yes, weight gain was on that list– it always is. But what stood out the most was the brain-related symptoms, the mood issues, the low or zero stress tolerance, and that terrifying feeling that your mental energy just vanished.” “If you want to get back to feeling stronger, more confident, more like yourself, again, it really begins with understanding what is happening with your body and embracing it.” “For decades, perimenopause holds the highest risk for psychological disorders in women compared to pre- and post-menopausal women. In fact, one study found that 70% of women said irritability is [their] most common symptom.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Preorder my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution HERE Join my FREE Thriving in Perimenopause and Menopause Summit HERE (Plus get my Hormone Loving Recipe Guide FREE!)
