Here's a quick gem about functional reserve and building capacity in older adults from a classic episode with The Strength Jedi, Dr. Scotty Butcher!
"If your 1RM squat is your bodyweight you’re in trouble as time goes on. If you’re not trying to build that at some point you won’t be able to get out of a chair, the higher your overall strength and fitness levels the greater you can deal with those age-related declines."
Thanks for listening!
