Yes.
The oldest lifters in the Masters Olympic Weightlifting are 80 plus years.
Studies show that the elderly maintain their independence longer if they have sufficient leg strength to get out of a sofa chair.
This strength comes from training with weights, machines or resistance devices that are used specifically to target the lower body muscles, especially the quads and glutes.
Yes! A person is never too old to lift weights. Although older people should not (and often can not) do the same exercises and use the same amount of weight as their 18-year-old counterparts, resistance training is a great way to help push back against muscle atrophy and loss of bone density commonly associated with advancing age. As with new trainees of all ages, always consult a physician before starting a new exercise program.
In general, yes. In specifics it'd depend on his medical history and general health, and whether he'll start sensibly or if he intends to go directly for the heavy weights.
If you are younger , lifting weight could stunt your growth and cause skeletal problems if you don't have the right vitamins.
i am positive! they are stupid!
They should start at age 18 or older
Yes you're ready for lifting at the age of 16.
Certainly, an elderly person can go bankrupt; there is no age limit on bankruptcy.
Appositional
Yes, you should wait until age 16 to do serious weight lifting.
No known connection between sexual problems and weight lifting - unless you also tried doping. Certain products are known to have detrimental side effects in that area.
first of all please respect my answer i do not want to mean but i think the age elderly stop driving is 80 years and up it really depends on the person.
No, lifting will not stunt your growth as the myth grows. But at such a young age you need supervision, and make sure you do it correctly. There are many benefits of weight training, even at this age.
There is no age limit for exercise. At any age any time anybody can start exercise but if u have any medical history then better first consult with doctor. Weight lifting, Yoga stretching and Cardio exercises combination is the best for workout. Every decade we loose our 10% of muscle mass after the age of 25 so through the weight lifting exercises we can increase our muscle mass, bone density and can improve the basal metabolic rate.
There is no specific age. It depends on the "old" person as well as the observer.
Elderly is typically defined as a person who is 65 years or older. However, this classification can vary based on cultural and societal norms, as well as individual health and functional status.
An elderly dependent in most cases is a relative such as a parent or grandparent. The elderly dependent must be over the age of 65 and live full time with the person claiming them as a dependent.
