5 Ways to Age-Proof Your Muscles

Aging is inevitable, but muscle loss doesn't have to be.

Muscles are important for everyday physical tasks like picking things up, reaching for something, opening a jar, or getting up from a chair. But as we age, we lose muscle mass, which results in weaker balance, less strength and movement.

Muscle loss is the aging factor that's rarely discussed, and most people accept its signs – such as loss of strength and energy, as a natural part of aging.⁴

However, muscles can ‘tell us’ how we are going to age physically, and how active and independent we are going to stay. The good news is that with the right steps, we can help prevent or slow down the muscle loss process.
