#093 Muscle, Metabolism & Midlife Reset with Amanda Lim
May 06, 2025
Sharad Lal, Amanda Lim

Your annual health checkup is a good start. But it’s not enough.

You’re in your 40s. Your doctor says you're fine. Your weight looks fine.
But your energy is low. Your sleep is off. Something just feels… off.

Amanda Lim sees this every day.
She’s a Harvard-certified coach and co-founder of Singapore’s first Metabolic Clinic,  advising companies like Google, PayPal, and Medtronic.

Her message?
You can look lean and healthy, and still be metabolically unwell.

In Singapore, many people look slim and fit, yet we’re facing a diabetes crisis.

Most annual checkups don’t catch it. They miss key signs like:

  • Skeletal muscle mass (SMI)
  • Visceral fat
  • Fasting insulin
  • VO₂ max

In this episode of How to Live, Amanda and I unpack the real health reset for your 40s — metabolism, muscle, and how to build strength from the inside out.
