#197: How to Build 5lb of Muscle in 2025

Building 5lb of muscle can reverse your musculoskeletal aging by over a decade. You'll improve your body composition, feel stronger, and improve your energy. Muscle tissue isn't optional, and it doesn't just impact you in the short-term. It's essential to live a long, healthy life.

Shannon will teach you how to train and eat to build 5lb of muscle in 2025. Grab a pen and paper, as she'll help you calculate your calorie needs if body recomposition (fat loss alongside muscle gain) is your goal.
