After the age of 30, the body slowly begins to lose muscle mass. This condition, known as Sarcopenia, reduces strength, balance, and metabolic health over time.
The numbers are striking. Muscle mass can drop by 3- 8% per decade. That means the body’s ability to handle glucose also declines. This is where many people get misled. Weight may stay the same, but body composition worsens. Fat increases, muscle decreases, and metabolic health slips.
Strength training is not about lifting heavy in a gym. It can be as simple as squats, resistance bands, or push-ups at home. But it needs to challenge the body. That challenge is what signals the body to preserve and build muscle.
