Muscle mass declines as you age.
Between the ages of 40 and 80 years, muscle mass declines by 30 to 50% in both men and women [2].
Although muscle mass declines with inadequate energy intake [ 15, 16], there is little work examining the impact of total energy intake in population-based studies.
This may be particularly important in the elderly population in whom BMI is known to be a weaker indicator of obesity because visceral fat increases and muscle mass declines with age [ 2].
Our observation that age-associated decrements were more pronounced for muscle strength than for muscle mass corroborates the finding from a 3-year longitudinal study of 1,880 older adults; this finding showed that muscle quality (defined as muscle strength per unit of muscle mass) declines with advancing age [ 31].
Lean muscle mass declines with aging to 25% at 75 80 years old, and it is typically offset by gains in fat mass; in addition, there is a relatively greater decrease in peripheral fat mass compared with the central one. 1 These age-related body composition changes are associated with negative health outcomes in elderly.
