Aging causes a decrease in muscle mass, and the onset of aging begins early! Exercise these two parts quickly to fight aging and disease

Have you ever noticed that when you reach a certain age, your body starts to become less mobile than before? This is because muscles become stiffer and less flexible as we age. If you want to move around properly, you can do stretching exercises to give your muscles and joints proper tightness and stimulation, which will help your body move more freely.

Stretching before exercise is equivalent to telling the body that it is about to perform intense action, allowing the body to move and quickly enter the exercise state. It can also strengthen and relax the muscles at the same time to prevent injuries.

Most people always feel soreness after exercise. In fact, these soreness are symptoms of muscle recovery. If you are concerned about soreness, you can also speed up muscle recovery through stretching movements to make the soreness disappear as soon as possible.

Strong thighs mean a healthy body

It is worth mentioning that in recent years people have shown great interest in strength training, but many people spend a lot of time only exercising external visible muscles such as arms, chest, and abdomen. In fact, the part we should focus on training is neither thick biceps nor smooth and tight abdominal muscles. To have real health and strength, we should focus on our thighs and buttocks.

I am often asked, "Why train the thighs and buttocks?" I have come up with the following answers to this question:

Thigh muscles are a measure of energy

Once people get older, their physical strength will begin to decline. In order to overcome this problem, many people are constantly looking for supplements and health foods. However, relying solely on food to improve physical strength has limited effects after all. What can really boost your energy is exercise, and thigh exercises are the best.

Once people get older, their physical strength will begin to decline. In order to overcome this problem, many people are constantly looking for supplements and health foods. However, relying solely on food to improve physical strength has limited effects after all. What can really boost your energy is exercise, and thigh exercises are the best.

The reason why thigh exercises are so effective is that 30% of all the muscles in the body are in the thighs, which can be said to be the largest sugar storage room. Sugar is the source of energy that the human body needs when exerting force. The thicker the thighs, the more sugar can be stored. Therefore, thick thighs mean that the body can continue to produce energy and is less likely to feel tired.

Another reason is that thigh exercises are full-body exercises. For example, squats are a typical lower body exercise that not only exercises the thighs, but also stimulates muscles throughout the body, cultivates strength throughout the body, and can improve body strength and endurance at the same time.

The buttocks muscles symbolize youth

As we age, our buttocks begin to sag. This is because the body is aging and experiences a loss of muscle mass, most notably in the lower body including the buttocks.

Studies have shown that people over the age of 70 have 40% less fast-twitch muscles (muscles related to maximum instantaneous muscle strength) in their thighs. Therefore, if you want to maintain strength and vitality, it is best to engage in hip training before you get older.

In addition, when men enter middle age, their male hormones gradually decrease, so they face fat gain, muscle loss, and male menopause. If you want to solve this problem, you can start exercising your lower body including your buttocks. Because hip exercises are the best way to promote the secretion of male hormones. The male hormone produced through exercise is not only beneficial to the growth of muscles throughout the body, but also can make people stay youthful forever.

Strengthen your thigh and buttock muscles to fight off disease

We have already mentioned the role that the buttocks and thigh muscles play in the human body. Another point that needs to be emphasized is that exercising the thigh and buttocks muscles is directly related to health. If you want to be healthy and live longer, you can do some strength exercises. As long as the muscle mass increases, it can promote metabolism, reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, dementia and other diseases, and strengthen the muscles that protect the joints and prevent bone diseases such as the knees, ankles, and waist.

Exercise should start with stretching. First, it energizes the muscles and increases the body's range of motion, while improving physical mobility and preventing injuries. Muscles account for a relatively high proportion of the body, and most of the muscles are concentrated in the lower body, so when exercising, special attention should be paid to training the thighs and buttocks. Through these two parts of exercise, we can strengthen our muscles and live longer.
