in your 50s
Your strength isn’t just important in your 50s, it's crucial. After middle age, Sarcopenia (muscle loss syndrome) becomes more common. Those with Sarcopenia are directly linked with physical disabilities, poor health, and shortened life expectancy.
Slow-motion strength training is the most direct path to increase strength, prevent muscle loss, and is proven to improve sleep, energy levels, and quality of life.

Muscle Loss Over Time
Muscle tissue changes from decade to decade. Muscle mass decreases approximately 3–8% per decade after the age of 30 and this rate of decline is even higher after the age of 60. Muscle loss can also contribute to limited physical ability, low energy, and decreased metabolism.
