Sarcopenia is the loss of muscle mass and strength that occurs with age. It happens to all of us. Typically, our strength and muscle mass increase and peak at around age 30, after which they slowly decrease especially if they’re not being utilized. The loss of our muscle over decades can lead to weakness, decreased mobility and the increased risk of falls and other injuries. “Use it or lose it”....basically.
