Inactive adults over age 30 lose about 3 - 5% of muscle tissue every 10 years; here's what you can do. Go to the weight room. Strength training prevents the reduction in muscle tissue that causes the body metabolism to slow and makes the bones more vulnerable to conditions like osteoporosis.


Saw this on 'My Yahoo' and seeing as this week we're focusing on arms I thought about maybe doing a push-up post.


How many push-ups can you do today?
