Can You Build Muscle While Dieting? Here’s the Real Answer

Most people over 50 are told they can either lose fat or build muscle — but not both. In today’s Monday Mile episode of the Over 50 health & Wellness Show podcast, Coach Kevin pulls back the curtain and shares a raw, unfiltered clip straight from a live Silver Edge Collective coaching call where that myth gets crushed.

You’ll hear real conversations between Kevin, Coach Monica, and Collective members navigating the same challenges you face — from how to train when you’re in a calorie deficit, to what “maintenance” actually means, to the surprising role metabolism and mindful eating play in sustainable results.

This isn’t theory — it’s the real-world, in-the-trenches guidance that helps men and women in their 50s and 60s finally build lean muscle, torch fat, and feel strong, energized, and alive again.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Whether you can actually build muscle while dieting — and when it’s smarter to maintain or bulk
• Why waking up not hungry may be a red flag for your metabolism
• The Silver Edge “Nutritional Triangle” — and why how you eat matters almost as much as what you eat
• How to use strength training to tell your body, “Keep this muscle — burn the fat!”
• Real member wins, lessons, and behind-the-scenes insights from inside The Collective

Listen if you’re ready to:

• Finally understand how to fuel and train for fat loss without losing muscle
• Break free from years of yo-yo dieting and metabolic confusion
• See what sustainable transformation really looks like in your 50s and 60s

🎧 Hit play, lace up your sneakers, and let’s walk through the real science — and mindset — behind building muscle while dieting.
