Answer must not be less than 5 sentences. I really have a hard time with this one.

There really is no limit or degrade in muscle strength with age, unless it is brought upon by a change in workout and diet habits. I have known coaches and trainers in their 40's and 50's who could lift just as much, and usually more than 18-19 year old weightlifters.

Excersize does in fact reduce chronic pain through the years because of the effect it has on your tendons and ligaments. About two years ago, in high school, I tore the lower meniscus in my knee which caused it to be very swollen and this loosened the ligaments, which made my knee prone to coming out of place. (very painful). I was told to have surgery by my doctor (of course), but then talked to my trainer and he said that a good workout routine would clear the problem. I started again on leg curls and leg squats, increasing weight reasonably, and in 3 months I felt as good as new.

The Reason: When you build your muscles, it encases your ligaments and tendons in a "protective case", your muscles working as a brace for your tendons, thus taking some of the stress from them, making them last longer.

Remember: Reasonable, smart, and well executed excersize is never a bad thing, and a great diet is all part of it.

What exactly does the phrase No Pain, No Gain mean? Its certainly catchy and its thrown around at gyms everywhere. Does it mean that if you feel pain that you are going to gain muscle? If you dont feel pain, does that mean you wont get bigger and stronger? Is more pain better? Is all pain a sign of growth or is some pain bad? In this video we will explore this topic and how to measure the success of a workout.

First, since you are probably interested in getting stronger and gaining muscle if you are watching this video, let me recommend some very important videos first.
1.Focus For The Advanced Bodybuilder. Unless you know how to focus, you wont be able to generate the intensity required to get sore. This 11minute video helps you work on increase your workout intensity.
2.”Bulking Up And Adding Muscle”. This 10 minute video covers what is required to add muscle and gain strength.
3.On my Nutrition playlist, I cover the very important topic of nutrition. I dont care how hard you workout, if your nutrition sucks you wont gain an ounce of muscle. Most bodybuilders do not understand what good nutrition is which drastcally limits their progress. Its really silly to spend hours in the gym and then not give your muscles the materials they need to rebuild.
