"As you age, your muscles can lose up to 1 percent of their strength each year. Studies now reveal that this age-related weaking in the muscle, called sarcopenia, leads to many more health problems than previously thought, including balance issues that lead to falls, osteoporosis, fractures and an increased incidence of dementia. Fortunately, with a little effort, you can maintain - or return to- a healthier state, keep physical function and mental capacity intact, and live independently long into your senior years. This book will show you how."--From publisher.
