MUSCLES - Start ageing at 30
Muscle is constantly being built up and broken down, a process which is
well balanced in young adults. However, by the time we're 30, breakdown is
greater than buildup, explains Professor Robert Moots. Once adults reach
40, they start to lose between 0.5 and 2 per cent of their muscle each
year. Regular exercise can help prevent this.
