Lots of our clients suffer from muscle loss. Especially once you get over 35 years old. Here are the top 2 strategies we implement to fight muscle loss
𝗙𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗧𝗶𝗽 1 : Increase your protein intake- Aim for 1-2 palmfuls of lean protein 4-5xs a day. Protein provides your body with the building blocks for metabolism function and regulations of all tissues and organs in your body
𝗙𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗧𝗶𝗽 2: Do Full-Body Strength Sessions 2-4xs a week- Nothing prevents muscle loss than actively lifting weights. Even if you have injuries you can still work around them to retain muscle and get better with age. Strength training breaks down old and weak tissue and rebuilds back new and stronger muscles. So not only do you get stronger but you get toner!
The more cardio and fad diets you do the more muscle you actually end up losing. The more muscle you lose the harder and harder it is to gain it back. This also leads to a slower metabolism overall which will cause you to gain more body fat and health issues moving forward.
