Nellers Jan 2021 9:34am, 2 Jan 2021 37,873 posts	0 Nellers Steve and Muttley: Testosterone levels decline with age, and testosterone is important in building or maintaining muscle. Strength training is also important though. If you start strength training later in life you can see gains in muscle mass and strength, but they won't be as pronounced as they would have been if we'd started younger, when we had more testosterone to add to the mix. Definitely still worth doing some strength training though. They say that the best day to start it is ten years ago or today.

Bamber Jan 2021 10:06am, 2 Jan 2021 153 posts	0 Bamber OK - I'm in for this. Sounds good
Bamber Jan 2021 10:09am, 2 Jan 2021 154 posts	0 Bamber I have also been thinking about NY resolutions. I would like 2021 to be the year that I can touch my toes after probably 25 years - Does anyone know if there is a touch your toes thread - I could not see one .......

Dave A Jan 2021 11:09am, 2 Jan 2021 22,752 posts	0 Dave A Bamber: I struggled with bad flexibility for years. If you are otherwise fit and healthy with no underlying conditions that would affect flexibility it should be easy. I started, just short of 4 years ago, doing a Movement For Modern Life hamstring exercise after every run and walk. I could touch my toes after 2 weeks. The stuff is on their website and YouTube.

Velociraptor Jan 2021 12:15pm, 2 Jan 2021 50,795 posts	0 Velociraptor I could do "before" and "after" touching my toes videos. "Before" would be when I first get out of bed, "after" would be any time between mid-morning and bedtime.
