Eat this not that page offers exercise habits for a toned body and strong muscles after 50 years old.

We lose 3 - 5% of the body's muscle mass and mobility when turning 30. As we age, especially after age 50, we become less active and the hormones change. This can affect health and weight gain.

It is important to maintain physical activity and strength training is a suitable way to maintain muscle and toned body shape. When you lift dumbbells, your muscles become healthier. Muscles help you function stably as you age.

In particular, squats with weights are an effective whole-body movement that helps warm up the body, chest, hamstrings, buttocks, triangles, quadriceps and shoulders. Start with small weights, 1-2 kg and gradually increase.

In addition, push-ups are a suitable way to burn calories, tone the body and increase strength. This move does not require equipment and you can do it anywhere.

When performed correctly, the push-up action had an impact on more muscle groups, not just on the chest. You will also have an impact on your shoulders, arms, back, core and hips.
