EXERCISE HELPS MUSCLES FUNCTION BETTER as WE GET OLDER

 Recent study in the Journal of Applied Physiology shows that exercise can help our muscles age slower which is extremely important if we want to golf, hike, bike, etc. as long as we can.

Weight Training as we get older can improve your muscle strength, endurance, circulation, balance, bone density, increase metabolism, help reduce osteoarthritis pain, lower risk of type II diabetes, and improve independence and vitality.

It doesn't take a huge time commitment. 2-3 sessions per week, 30-45 minutes per session, to really improve your health.


best of health,
