Secret to eternal youth discovered? Lifelong exercise keeps the muscles from aging – Study Finds

“The single most important message from this study, is that even a little exercise seems to go a long way, when it comes to protecting against the age-related decline in muscle function. This is an encouraging finding which can hopefully spur more people to engage in an activity that they enjoy. We still have much to learn about the mechanisms and interactions between nerves and muscles and how these change as we age. Our research takes us one step closer,” the researcher concludes.

Study authors note that they still have to examine the impact of lifelong exercise on people over 80. Future studies also need to look at the relationship between recreational activity and muscle health among women.

A Wrinkle in Time

Crackled like the tree with all of its imperfections,
I pay homage
So why, not to me?

After all, I’ve lived through the years,
climbed mountain tops, stumbled and fell,
Eaten shit and died.

I’ve scraped by, been beaten and bruised, raked over the coals, withered in pain and cried.

I’ve stretched over rivers, through valleys and squeezed through the cracks, and cried out your name.

Cavernous and worn,
with laugh lines and joy.

Aged in beauty to perfection in the sunshine and waves of Cali bottled like fine wine.

I stood in your shade but more in the light
and now my vulnerabilities show a wrinkle in time.

I’ve earned every one,
