CHAPTER

Aging and Muscle Changes

This chapter explores the myosolular changes that occur with aging, including deficits in muscle quality, shifts in fiber type, and age-related muscle atrophy. It discusses the potential decrease in capillary density and perfusion as a factor affecting muscle growth in aging, and strategies to increase capillary density for muscle growth. The chapter also delves into the quick changes that occur in skeletal muscle through amino acid incorporation, the benefits of warming up before exercise, and the concept of concurrent training.
