WHY LIFTING WEIGHTS MATTERS MORE AS YOU AGE
Here’s something most people don’t realize: starting around age 30, we naturally lose 3-8% of muscle mass per decade. This is called sarcopenia, and it speeds up big-time after 60.The GREAT news? Strength training can slow it down or even REVERSE it!
Research proves that lifting weights stimulates muscle growth in older adults just as effectively as in younger people. One landmark study showed adults in their 60s and 70s who lifted 2–3 times a week gained significant muscle and strength—on par with people decades younger!
Why does this matter?
→ Stronger muscles = stronger bones (less fracture risk)
→ Better balance = fewer falls
→ Healthier metabolism
→ Staying independent and active for way longer
You don’t need to go super heavy. Progressive challenge is the key—even bodyweight moves, resistance bands, or light dumbbells work wonders when you keep pushing yourself a little more over time.
The best time to start? TODAY.
The second-best time? Tomorrow.
