Power Athlete Radio

How healthy are you after 40? Most men assume declining energy, stubborn body fat, poor recovery, low testosterone, and fading athletic performance are simply part of getting older. Dr Kirk Parsley says otherwise as he joins John Welbourn to expose the real drivers of aging-related decline and explain why so many people are getting old before their time. From sleep quality and metabolic health to hormones, strength, and recovery, they break down the objective metrics that separate those who thrive from those merely surviving. If you're serious about building a stronger, healthier, more capable body for decades to come, this conversation delivers the blueprint for longevity, performance, and quality of life after 40.

Dr Kirk Parsley joins John Welbourn to break down the blood markers that reveal what's really happening beneath the surface, the five biomarkers everyone over 40 should monitor, and why being "within range" isn't the same as being healthy. The numbers don't lie, and they may be telling a very different story than you think.
