No matter how old or how young you are, strength and power training can offer benefits.
Studies in children and young people, some as little as 8 years old, have found improvements in sports performance (among athletes), body composition (among those who are overweight or obese), and physical and psychological well- being
(across all categories).
And benefits continue across your lifespan, even into you 80's and 90's. Some research has included subjects as old as 98 and has shown that strength training helps the elderly stay independent longer. One of the reasons that strength and power training are so potent, especially as you get older, is their ability to curb muscle loss and build new muscle. Muscle loss begins at around age 35. On average, adults who don't do regular strength training can expect to lose 4 to 6 pounds of muscle per decade.
Starting an exercise program is not hard.
All you need is some bands, light dumbbells and your own bodyweight, it's that easy and can workout in the comfort of your own home.
