The biology of strength training: As mature and intelligent adults, you're already aware that with age, our lean muscle mass naturally declines. However, weight training can significantly impact this strength/age curve. At a molecular level, strength training stimulates muscle protein synthesis which helps maintain and even increase muscle mass.
By incorporating regular strength exercises into your routine, you're essentially extending the trajectory and timespan of your muscle mass. This doesn't just mean more power; it translates into higher levels of activity and metabolic vitality. In simpler terms, you're reprogramming your body at a cellular level to be more active and energetic for a longer period.
