Good afternoon!
Those with greater strength (and muscle mass) and aerobic fitness (vo2 max), live longer, healthier lives.
Aim to lift weights 2-3 days per week. Strive to work out each major muscle group at least once per week. We can lose muscle as we age, so lifting weights (machines, barbells, dumbells, cables, etc.) stimulates muscle protein synthesis and promote muscle growth and maintenance.
Also, aim perform cardio 5-6 days per week. Cardio such as bike, swim, brisk walk, run, elliptical or other. As we age, we can lose aerobic capacity, so performing cardio helps to hold that off!
Creates habits and skip the all or nothing mindset with fitness and nutrition.
Have a fit and healthy day!
