One can rebuild ageing muscles


Marcas Bamman, a professor of integrative biology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham has found in his studies that men and women in their 60s and 70s who began supervised weight training developed muscles that were as large and strong as those of your average 40-year old!

Skeletal muscles are composed of various types of fibres. If one doesn't exercise and follow sedentary work style he is bound to lose 30 to 40 percent fibres in their muscles by the time he reaches 55.

So better be clever and ensure regular exercise and keep the muscles in tact to reduce the  ageing process.
