There’s a simple explanation for the changes you’re likely feeling in your body in your 50s, and it comes down to science. But science also proves that you can reverse and prevent these changes through movement. By the time you’ve reached your 50s, if you’ve been active, you’ve potentially lost only 6% of your muscle mass, however, if you’ve been semi-sedentary you could have lost up to a significant 20%. This translates into fewer muscle cells working to burn calories, give you energy, and prevent stiffness in your joints. This is also a time of significant hormonal change, which has been shown to cause a multitude of musculoskeletal symptoms in your body including stiff joints, pain, inflammation and connective tissue issues. Essentrics as a full body workout will stimulate your muscle cells and work your full range of motion to reduce stiffness, improve flexibility, and build strength while protecting your muscles and joints.
