Most people over 40 protect their joints by backing off the weights. The research says that's backwards, and that untrained muscle is what actually wrecks a joint.
Coach Julian breaks down what happens to your muscle after 40, why resistance training keeps showing up in the literature as a treatment for knee and hip pain rather than a cause of it, and the specific dose that works: two to three sessions a week at moderate effort over eight to twelve weeks.
Plus the two simple tests, grip strength and how fast you can stand up out of a chair, that predict longevity better than almost anything on a lab report.
