Did you know that you start losing bone AND muscle mass as soon as the age of thirty? Or that your fingers and toes don’t have muscles? Or how women in Scotland are starting to compete in the lighting of Dinnie Stones – which weighs 733 pounds?! These are topics that Chris discussed with Bonnie Tsui, author of the book On Muscle: The Stuff That Moves Us and Why It Matters. They also discuss what strength and weightlifting means in today’s society – especially as more women enter the sport. Bonnie and Chris also discuss studying martial arts, playing on sports teams, and the benefits of functional mobility as you age.FollowHost: Chris Duffy (Instagram: @<a href="https://www.instagram.com/chrisiduffy/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">chrisiduffy</a> | <a href="https://chrisduffycomedy.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://chrisduffycomedy.com/</a>)Guest: Bonnie Tsui (Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bonnietsui8/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@bonnietsui8</a> | Website: <a href="https://www.bonnietsui.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.bonnietsui.com/</a> | )LinksHumor Me by Chris Duffy (<a href="https://t.ted.com/ZGuYfcL" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://t.ted.com/ZGuYfcL</a>)Buy&nbsp;Bonnie's book On Muscle:&nbsp;<a href="https://tinyurl.com/onmuscle" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://tinyurl.com/on muscle</a>Newsletter:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bonnietsui.com/events" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.bonnietsui.com/events</a>Other handles:Facebook:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/bonnietsui" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/bonnietsui</a>LinkedIn:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bonnie-tsui-71a57775" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/bonnie-tsui-71a57775</a>Threads:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.threads.com/@bonnietsui8" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.threads.com/@bonnietsui8</a>Twitter:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.twitter.com/bonnietsui" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.twitter.com/bonnietsui</a>Follow TED!&nbsp;X: <a href="https://www.twitter.com/TEDTalks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.twitter.com/TEDTalks</a>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ted" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/ted</a>Facebook: <a href="https://facebook.com/TED" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://facebook.com/TED</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences</a>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks&nbsp;</a>Podcasts: <a href="https://www.ted.com/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.ted.com/podcasts</a>For the full text transcript, visit <a href="https://go.ted.com/BHTranscripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">go.ted.com/BHTranscripts</a>Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?
