Reveals age-related declines in muscle mass affecting strength and function, suggesting preservation strategies are crucial.
Age-associated differences in muscle mass tracked closely with strength (men) and functional capacity. These results indicate that the role of low muscle mass in functional decline has been underestimated, emphasising the importance of strategies to preserve/enhance muscle mass throughout adulthood.
