We all naturally lose 3 pounds of muscle every 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>Counteract this and give your body no choice but to keep the muscle by strength training regularly.<\/p>\n<p>The hormonal benefits from weight lifting can also keep you younger due to the release of growth hormone.<\/p>\n<p>No more complaints about not being able to do things, like lift objects, go on a brisk walk, or pick up your children or grandchildren&#8230;you\u2019ll have strong muscles to be able to do it all.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newwavefitness.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/stop_free_radicals.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9046\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newwavefitness.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/stop_free_radicals.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"604\" height=\"320\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Stop free radicals in their tracks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The \u201caging accelerators\u201d that science has known about for decades are called free radicals.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re found everywhere (in the environment, food, etc.) and cause cell oxidation, inflammation and breakdown of healthy tissue, contributing to the effects of aging.<\/p>\n<p>Put a stop to this aging process with powerful antioxidants. Great ones to supplement with are vitamin C, resveratrol, and vitamin E. Research has also shown that drinking 2-3 cups of green tea per day can also help in the fight against free radicals.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that blackberries contain the most antioxidants of all berries? Look at the color of foods to determine antioxidant levels. The darker and more rich the color, the more antioxidants it contains.
