Are you as old as you feel? Does your chronological age match your biological age? We’ve all met people who seem much younger than their age and have boundless energy. We’ve also known people who look and act much older than their age.
As we age, our metabolism slows, making it tougher to lose weight. After 40, our biological age starts to speed up, and we age faster than our chronological age. It doesn’t need to be this way. You have more control over the aging process than you think. You have the power to slow aging and prolong your youth.
TRY STRENGTH TRAINING
When we add strength training to an exercise routine, we can stimulate our muscles to unleash a powerful flood of muscle-strengthening, fat-burning and anti-aging hormones to reverse the aging process and greatly slow down both biological and chronological aging.
Stimulating and exhausting all of our muscle fibers is the key that will cause the other metabolic processes and organs of the body to respond better.
In order for a strength-training workout to produce results, sufficient rest and recovery time are necessary to allow growth. If we provide a sufficient stimulus to the body and allow for rest and recovery, the body will respond in a positive way with the desired physical and metabolic changes.
GET WITH THE (STRENGTH) PROGRAM
When you incorporate strength training into your exercise routine, you will:
• Re-ignite your metabolism, reprogramming your body to start burning body fat.
• Reboot the endocrine system, creating a resurgence of youth-enhancing hormones so you can get infinitely more energy and replace flab with lean, strong muscle.
• Fortify your body by regaining bone density and building a solid foundation.
• Boost your brainpower, enhance memory and improve cognitive function.
• Improve functional ability, making daily activities easier and more enjoyable.
The good news is that it is never too late to add strength training to your lifestyle. It floods your body with a very potent tidal wave of muscle-strengthening, fat-burning and anti-aging hormones that will serve you well into your golden years and dramatically help improve the quality of your life as you age. Consider incorporating this “Fountain of Youth” into your fitness routine.
