Stomach Exercise Myth VI - Weight gain is inevitable as you age

Most people get fatter as they get older. It doesnt have to be this way.

The reasons for gaining weight with age are reduced physical activity levels and lower metabolic rate caused by a loss of lean body mass (muscle).

You can reverse this process with simple exercises. When we get older our metobolism slows and our body burns less calories during normal activity. Exercising makes you burn more calories.

The loss of muscle is also reversable by exercising as little as 30 minutes a day three times a week.
