Losing muscle and strength are part of the normal aging process. The loss of muscle mass affects balance, gait, and the ability to perform, placing seniors on a sedentary path which increases poor health conditions, ultimately destroying the quality of life.

It’s called Sarcopenia, a degenerative process that causes a decline of skeletal muscle tissue and a gradual increase in weakness which can result in an inability to perform simple movements and functions.

If you are feeling unusual fatigue and cannot complete physical tasks without repeated rest periods or have noticed sagging skin from the shrinking of muscle areas, it’s time to address the problem and reverse it.

The International Osteoporosis Foundation’s current research states that resistance training can rebuild muscle strength and help fight against Sarcopenia, even in the elderly!

Dr. Nathan K. LeBrasseur in the Mayo Clinic’s Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in Rochester, Minn. recommends resistance exercise daily, or at least three times a week, along with an increase in protein intake. Sufficient protein and non-acid producing foods, such as fruits and vegetables, along with resistance exercise, will rebuild lost muscle tissue and help regain strength.
