Low Muscle Mass = Early Death
Get jacked, guys! It's not just to look good during sex... it can literally save your life.💪
A 2023 meta-analysis of 49 studies tracking 878,349 adults found that individuals with the lowest muscle mass had a 36% higher risk of death from any cause. This is significant evidence that shows weight training an adequate protein intake can help you live both a longer life AND a healthier life.
The research followed participants for up to 32 years and observed more than 61,000 deaths. Low muscle mass increased death risk across multiple causes:
- Cardiovascular Disease - 29% higher risk
- Respiratory illness - 36% higher risk
- Cancer - 14% higher risk
It showed that muscle tissue has multiple protective functions
- Metabolic regulation. Maintains healthy blood sugar and insulin sensitivity.
- Immune support. Buffers chronic inflammation which accelerates aging
- Physical resilience. Preserves mobility and strength.
