Our gift of 50 additional years of life -- A sedentary lifestyle: the threat to our longer life spans -- The cause of sarcopenia -- The enormous cost: life on the frail trail -- Why most doctors do not understand sarcopenia, or its remedy -- The remedy: intense physical activity -- The motivation we all need -- Making the mental shift to the StrongPath -- Habit, willpower, and our ancient brains -- Getting started: know your muscles -- Ongoing objective assessments -- Working out: building your StrongPath plan -- Your full-body training approach -- The final critical habit: feed your muscles.
Sarcopenia, a muscle-wasting and frailty disease, impacts all of us as we age-- unless we proactively prevent it. Bartlit and Droullard, along with muscle physiology expert Boppart, want to share a little known fact with the world: You don't have to fall apart as you get older. Through carefully calibrated progressive strength training and supporting nutrition, you can stave off sarcopenia, along with dozens of other age-related illnesses. Discover how to build a healthier, happier you. -- adapted from jacket.
