Ep 94 Why Weight Loss Is Failing Women Over 40 (And What To Do Instead) with JJ Virgin
Are you still letting the scale decide if you’re “doing it right” with your health? In this episode, I sit down with legendary health leader JJ Virgin to talk about why traditional weight loss is failing women, especially in their 40s and beyond. We dive into why weight is the wrong metric, how GLP-1s have exposed a hidden muscle-loss epidemic, and more. She shares her core supplement stack, and the mindset and routines that have allowed her to build multiple 7–8 figure businesses without sacrificing her health. Get ready to stop shrinking yourself, start building muscle, and step into a stronger body and bigger life at every age.
In this episode, you will learn:
00:00 What is the biggest mistake that people make in the fitness and wellness industry?
05:15 JJ Virgin’s daily longevity stack.
12:30 How urolithin A, senolytics, and NAD support joints, recovery, and aging.
15:00 What’s your take on testosterone and progesterone for women?
18:30 How to use melatonin, 5-HTP, GABA, and an Oura ring to support sleep and recovery.
23:45 Why NEAT (non-exercise movement) and 10K steps are non-negotiable for longevity.
28:45 The one trait every successful entrepreneur shares (and it’s not talent).
31:15 The three mindset rituals JJ uses when she feels stuck or overwhelmed.
35:00 The body composition upgrade that fixes your metabolism, mental health, and energy.
