Stay Strong for LifeBy Editorial Staff As we age, we begin to lose lean body mass (lean adipose tissue) and gain more of the fatty adipose variety, which is never a good thing. We also lose muscle strength; anywhere from 8-16 percent after age 50 or so. This influences basal metabolism, which declines the older we get, creating a vicious chain events that can make us, to put it simply, fatter and weaker over time.
