How Does Strength Training Boost Your Immune System?

In this episode, Emma Sullivan and David Park break down how strength training triggers your muscles to release signaling proteins called myokines that directly enhance immune function—and why this matters especially as you age and muscle naturally declines. They explore the science behind sarcopenia, explain why two weekly resistance sessions is enough to make a measurable difference, and cut through common misconceptions about strength training for women and people managing chronic limitations. Listeners will walk away understanding muscle not as a vanity project, but as a functional immune organ worth building and maintaining.Follow The Wellness Rhythm Show:  ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessRhythmShow  📖 Newsletter: https://thewellnessrhythmshow.substack.com  Powered by VoxCrea.AI
