Unlock the Secret Weapon Against Power Loss: How to Explode with Strength at Any Age!
Researchers have given the age-related loss of muscle power a name: powerpenia. And growing research shows that it’s a key predictor of whether you’ll be able to pick up your grandkid, climb a flight of stairs, or hoist your keister off the toilet when you’re 70.
Here’s what you need to know about powerpenia — and how to resist it.
The Muscle Decline Trifecta: Sarcopenia, Dynapenia, and Powerpenia
You’ve likely heard of sarcopenia — the loss of muscle mass with age. It typically begins around age 40 and accelerates after age 60. Muscle mass typically declines by .5-1% per year after 40.
