How to build and preserve muscle strength?


Adults between the ages of 40 and 65 years old should be on "high alert" and take active
steps to strengthen your muscle and body for overall health.

Why do you need to keep your muscles strong? As we age, we lose muscle mass. When losing muscle mass we face higher risk of:
  • Immobility
  • Increased Falls
  • Physical and Mental Fatigue
  • Loss of Independence
After 40, we start to lose muscle mass and that can be as much as 33% of muscle mass loss between 40 - 80 years old.*
