Why Muscles Matter (And How to Protect Them)

As we age, maintaining muscle mass becomes increasingly crucial for our overall health and well-being. After 40, our bodies naturally start to lose muscle at a rate of 3-8% per decade. This process, known as sarcopenia, can have significant impacts on our strength, balance, and even cognitive function.

Strong muscles are essential for:

Building and maintaining muscle after 40 is not only possible but vital for healthy aging. Regular strength training can improve cognition, joint health, and help maintain bone density.

While medications like semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) have shown remarkable results for weight loss, they come with a potential drawback: muscle loss. Recent studies have found that up to 40% of total weight loss from semaglutide use can be attributed to a reduction in lean body mass, including muscle. This muscle loss can occur regardless of age and may impact strength and physical performance. For those using semaglutide for weight management, it’s crucial to implement strategies to preserve muscle mass.
