  • Testosterone Myths, Busted: How Much Muscle Exactly Do We Need? - Dr. Marko Lujic
    Think testosterone is just about sex drive or something only men need? Think again. In this myth-busting episode, I sit down with Dr. Marko Lujic—surgeon-turned-age-management expert—to talk all things testosterone, muscle, and midlife performance. We unpack why muscle loss accelerates during perimenopause, why it’s not just about hormones, and the real reason your workouts might not be working anymore.

Whether you're lifting weights or just trying to lift your energy—this one’s for you. We cover: Why women lose muscle faster in perimenopause (psst. It’s not just hormones) Testosterone’s role in strength, mood, and metabolism How much muscle do we really need and how to measure it The best ways to take, test and track your testosterone Signs of low (and high) testosterone Three tips to build and maintain muscle after 40 Can testosterone cause irreversible damage?   Dr. Marko Lujic is a physician specializing in age management and hormone optimization. With a background in surgery and a passion for preventative care, he helps women and athletes stay strong, energized, and hormonally balanced through midlife and beyond.
