In one minute you can learn a new healthy living tip from our Active Aging Minute video series. This week we explain power and strength and what happens to both as we age. Our muscle mass can decrease by nearly 50% between the ages of 20 and 90. Muscle power declines quicker than our strength. BUT, through physical activity we can reduce the decline in our strength and power to keep our independence and age well.

Be sure to consult with a physician, physical therapist, or other trained health or exercise professional before doing a new exercise routine, in case you have medical and physical conditions that affect the exercises and how they are applied.
