Episode description

Strength training is a safe and beneficial activity for adults of all ages.

Current research has demonstrated that strength-training exercises have the ability to combat weakness and frailty and their debilitating consequences.

Join us as we discuss how older adults can quickly, safely and efficiently rebuild muscles that have atrophied from years of sedentary living. Just 3 to 4 months of effort-based strength training done regularly (as little as 10 minutes 2 days per week), will build muscle strength, increase lean muscle mass, preserve bone density, and enhance independence, and vitality with age.
