Document Summary

Lecture 5 muscle function and training with age. Sarcopenia: this is very common in aging. Increase in imat can be influenced by: disease, obesity, injury, inactivity. Decrease in muscle mass this is very much related to metabolic dysfunction because muscle is a metabolic active tissue. Type ii diabetes decreased insulin resistance. Imat metabolic dysfunction, muscle dysfunction and mobility dysfunction. High fitness, body composition can positively influence the process to disability (slow it down) Traditional resistance training: systematic exercise program involving exertion of force against a load used to develop muscular strength, endurance and hypertrophy, emphasis on strength. Progressive: based o(cid:374) (cid:858)o(cid:448)e(cid:396)load(cid:859) p(cid:396)i(cid:374)(cid:272)iple, manipulation of intensity (load), frequency, and duration (number of sets, reps, and rest period) making the muscle stronger, you have to stress the muscle and overload it to see gains. As a sedentary person engages in a resistance program (9-12 months training), there is an increase in overall strength and then eventually there is a plateau.
