The role of increased muscle mass and strength in improved health, prevention and management of illness, greater quality of life, and prolonged independence is well-established in the literature. Despite this, healthcare professionals still fail to make recommendations that include resistance training to obtain these benefits, and instead continue to disperse less-than-optimal, and sometimes adverse, recommendations that focus on maximal oxygen consumption, which has little direct relation to health outcomes. Get in touch with the High Performance Centres to enquire about strategies we can employ that will help you increase your muscle mass and strength and reap the associated benefits that these changes will bring. #HPC4HEALTH
