Dr Stu Phillips, Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Skeletal Muscle Health, shares his expertise on the importance of strength, power and muscle hypertrophy for healthy aging.

As is often the case Stu discusses how simple exercise programming can achieve the physical attributes that help us all age well.  

The fast recap is: - something is better than nothing

• strength train 2x/week, 2-4 sets, 5-20 repetitions with an effort of 8/10.  
• progress this over time
• train power but moving a much lighter faster!
• eat a little bit of protein within 24 hours of your workout.
• easy peasy
