How to Keep Muscles Strong as You Age
Here’s why older adults naturally lose muscle mass over time and how regular physical activity and resistance training can help
I’ve been thinking about this very thing, lately. My wife and I started a weight loss program, which is actually working for me pretty well. However, even though I’m losing weight, my body shape is just kind of “equally shrinking”, instead of getting more…trim. I was thinking that my muscle mass is shrinking faster than my fat mass. I guess I need to get back to the strength training on Apple Fitness (or the free program Fitness Blender).
For optimal advice talk to a physical therapist.
