Building and maintaining muscle is a great way to stay healthy, and if you’re in your 60s, 70s, or even older, you might think… Muscle Building It is not possible, but this is not true. Experts have confirmed that muscles can be built once more in old age, according to what was published by the healthday website
“The protective effect of muscle and muscle mass has been well studied — everything from musculoskeletal to orthopedic surgery to brain health,” said Dr. Adil Ahmed, assistant professor in the Joseph Barnhart Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. “Building muscle in your body has been shown to delay dementia and the effects of dementia and preserve cognitive function.” “Maintaining muscle is the only thing that has been proven to help aging bones stay dense and strong, which is a very good long-term preventive process.”
However, if you’re considering a weightlifting regimen in late life, make sure you first consult an expert — a personal trainer or a trusted friend who already understands the process, Adel added. Ahmed recommends starting first with controlled resistance training and then moving on to free weights, focusing on Build Good and Safe Technique “In my opinion, free weights are the best for building muscle because of the force they exert on your muscles,” he said. “There’s also an element of balance that stabilizes your muscles and gets your heart working.” With proper guidance, make sure you get evaluated by a doctor before starting any weight training regimen in your later years. Weight training can be healthy for people with chronic aging conditions like heart failure, because it pumps blood to the heart.
He explained: “When you lift weights, you need the heart to be pumping hard to allow blood to flow to the muscles because that is the only way the nutrients get there, and it is the only way the muscles stay active and can exercise before getting sick.” “It’s cardio-protective, meaning your heart becomes primed to pump harder.” The bottom line is that seniors should not be afraid of the weight room, and it is generally very good for one’s health.”
