 women over 40
As you age, your metabolism slows
down, lean body mass decreases and fat mass increases. Women over 40 are
also dealing with hormonal changes and an increased risk of
osteoporosis. Strength training can address many issues associated with
aging and may be the key to a healthier you over 40.
Strength
training may be the answer to many age-related problems of older women.
Muscle mass begins declining in your twenties, but after 40 you begin
losing significantly more. Strength training with free weights, weight
machines or even your own body weight can slow and reverse this loss,
according to a 2003 news release of the American College of Sports
Medicine (ACSM). Other benefits include stronger muscles, stronger
bones, weight control, reduced risk of injury, increased stamina and
reduced aches and pains, according to the Mayo Clinic's website. Making
strength training a regular part of your lifestyle could improve your
quality of life.

way to get the most out of your workout, it is also the golden
opportunity to unleash your most devilishly sadistic sides. Only
problem is, you’re getting it all back when you’re the one doing a set,
but that’s probably just good for you anyway.
First off, I’d like to point out that - like everything else - the be
or not to be abou... Continue reading...

 The Importance of Stretching
There’s an endless number of runners who seem perfectly able to
squeeze in many hours of running every week but who just don’t seem to
have the time to stretch for five or ten minutes before and after. Find
the time.
Sure, it’s not as fun as hitting the road, and the benefits may not
be as immediately obvious. But a good and consistent stretching program
can save you a lot of trouble and keep you running when you might
otherwise become injured.... Continue reading...
