The Cost of Not Building Muscle After 40 (And How to Fix It)

The Cost of Not Building Muscle After 40 (And How to Fix It)

⚠️ The Silent Cost of Muscle Loss

Most people in their 40s don’t notice muscle loss — until it’s too late.

The average adult loses 1% of strength per year after age 40.
And by 50+, muscle loss accelerates — unless you train for it.

Without strength training, you risk:

• Metabolic slowdown → belly fat

• Poor posture → neck/back pain

• Higher injury risk

• Poor insulin sensitivity

• Faster ageing

📊 Real Data You Should Know

• 70% of people over 40 report chronic fatigue

• Muscle mass is one of the top predictors of longevity and quality of life

• Strength training 2–3x/week can reverse 5–10 years of physical decline
