Multisystem physiological perspective of human frailty and its modulation by physical activity
“Frailty” is a term used to refer to a state characterized by enhanced vulnerability to, and
impaired recovery from, stressors compared with a nonfrail state, which is increasingly …

Age-related changes in skeletal muscle: changes to life-style as a therapy
R McCormick, A Vasilaki - Biogerontology, 2018 - Springer
As we age, there is an age-related loss in skeletal muscle mass and strength, known as
sarcopenia. Sarcopenia results in a decrease in mobility and independence, as well as an …
