QUICK TIP

Rev it up

As you grow older, to rev up the metabolism again, it is important to do resistance training on a regular basis, to re-stimulate bone and muscle growth, at a minimum, two to three times a week. Choose exercises that work all of the major muscle group s, which include the legs, back, chest, shoulder, biceps and triceps.

Increasing your strength lessens your risk of injuries, makes everyday tasks easier to manage, and goes a long way toward maintaining a healthy weight.
