There’s a term Osteo- Sarcopenia. Age related loss of bone and muscle. This leads to frailty, and increased fall risk.

Building muscle helps to build bones. Women must lift heavy to build bone through weight training. While we can’t begin a strength training routine with heavy weights, a progression should be established. This is where hiring a trainer or coach, who specializes in training older adults, is important.

Lifting 2-5 lb dumbbells is not sufficient to build muscle or bone. Yet, this is the typical weight range used by older women who are trying to build muscle. They don’t graduate to heavier weights, which means they are not challenging themselves or changing body composition.

Sarcopenia, age related muscle loss.

Muscle loss begins in our 30s and accelerates in our 40s, when we typically begin Perimenopause. We lose 3-8% of our muscle, per decade, beginning in our 30s. We can lose up to 10% of our muscle, per decade, as we transition into menopause, around age 50, and beyond.
