Following a recent body scan, I'd like to shed light on several critical factors that can impact our muscular skeletal mass, and emphasize the importance of preserving it.
Who's at risk of losing this vital mass?
Primarily, it's the aging population with no prior exercise history and a poor diet, as well as pregnant women - let's empower those mumma’s to lift!💪🏼 Additionally, disordered eating, malnutrition, and certain medical conditions can also take a toll.
So, what can we do to improve or preserve our musculoskeletal mass?
By adopting a balanced and consistent approach to nutrition, focusing on fueling for performance rather than restriction, we can set ourselves up for success. Resistance-based training, working with weights, is also essential - and the good news is that it doesn't have to be excessive, just consistent. For example, I've lost 1kg of skeletal muscular mass since I was 20, but after having two babies, I've gained valuable knowledge in nutrition that's been truly empowering.
Hope ive helped someone ,
