Age related changes of muscle mass, strength and performance
Skeletal muscle is a very dynamical tissue. Because of its ability to shorten and produce force we are able to move and perform all the activities required in daily lives. Between maturity and old age human beings show about 40% decrease in muscle mass and even greater decreases in the development of maximum force and power, and muscle aging is multifactorial process. Physical frailty, with the accompanying effects on mobility and increased incidence of the falls, is one of the most prominent manifestations of old age and represents a primary factor limiting an elderly person’s chances of living independently. Contributing to physical frailty are skeletal muscle atrophy, declining strength, increasing fatigability and increasing fatigability and increasing susceptibility to injury.
