Looking for the Fountain of Youth? Prolong Vitality and a Youthful Appearance…
The quality of your life in the future depends on what you do now. One of the most important things we can do is strength training. After the age of thirty we begin to lose muscle mass. Many people in their later years suffer from back, hip and joint problems due to muscle mass decline. People with less muscle mass have a higher risk for type 2 Diabetes, heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, depression and arthritis. You need strong muscles to perform most tasks in life. Building muscles through strength training aids in flexibility, balance and will give you more energy. It will also help protect you from injury. Learning proper techniques before you begin is important. You can find information in books, videos or online. It is important to maintain good posture and begin slowly if you are a beginner. Aim for two days a week with a day of rest between. Stretching before and after exercising will reduce soreness. You can use your own body for many strength training exercises. If you do use weights start small and lift weights slowly. Concentrate on the muscle and the movement of the muscle. An hour after exercising, drink a protein shake or eat something with lean protein. Your body will continue to burn fat even after you have stopped exercising.
