Common Questions About Muscle Loss & Strength Training

Q:Why Muscle Health Matters After 40+

As we age, our bodies naturally experience muscle loss (sarcopenia) and a decline in bone density.

This can lead to:
✔️ Increased risk of osteoporosis and joint pain
✔️ Loss of strength and balance
✔️ Reduced confidence in how we look and feel

You can change this! With a combination of strength training, movement, and nutrition, you can build muscle, boost energy, and feel confident.

Q: Can I still build muscle at 50+?

Absolutely! Strength training can support building muscle mass and increase bone density, no matter your age. It’s never too late to start!

Q: Will lifting weights make me bulky?
