Impact of Age on Muscle (Sarcopenia) | Muscular System 09 | Anatomy & Physiology

I describe how #ageing and muscle mass are linked, how things change as you get older, and what you can do about losing muscle mass after age 35. Loss of muscle mass is called #sarcopenia, and if you don't regularly #exercise (ideally with both aerobic and resistance training) then you are at risk of limiting your overall health in the later years of your life. This video explains all this, and gives you some ideas for slowing the decline in muscle mass. Become a Patron! Can you spare £3 to help me make more of these videos?
