When it comes to our muscles, we can use them or lose them! Muscle mass diminishes with age and if you let it just slip by, you’ll lose your strength while the percentage of fat in your body increases. Strength training helps you keep strong bones, controls your weight by efficiently burning calories, reduces your risk of joint injuries, it boosts your stamina and sharpens your focus! As our bodies get older, we have a decision to age with grace or just age. [1]
Keep your body healthy and your weight in check with simple strength training exercises that can be done in the gym or at home!
