Strength training with proper periodization (aka load management) & emphasis on quality technique is the true “fountain of youth.” The one factor that MOST limits quality of life & functionality as we age isn’t cardiovascular endurance or flexibility - but strength. This isn’t to say all forms of exercise & fitness aren’t important - but there’s a reason why TONS of research on methods to enhance functionality & decrease pain for those with osteoarthritis (OA) consists of progressive resistance training!
What are your thoughts/experiences?
