Combating Age-Related Mobility Decline Through Exercise
Aging causes muscle loss (sarcopenia), joint deterioration, and decreased bone density, reducing mobility and increasing fall risks; however, resistance training, mobility work, balance exercises, and cardiovascular fitness can mitigate these effects.
