Muscle Function: Effects of Aging, Sarcopenia
As we age our muscles undergo progressive changes, primarily involving loss of muscle mass and strength.
The age-related loss of muscle function is known as Sarcopenia. Its definition includes loss of muscle strength and power, as well as reduced function. It occurs with increasing age, and is a major component in the development of frailty.
The loss of Muscle Mass during the aging process is important clinically as it reduces strength and exercise capacity, both which are needed to perform activities of daily living. The video below gives a good summary of the changes and effects on performance and health.

Sarcopenia - Consecuences
The loss of lean body mass reduces function, and loss of approximately 40% of lean body mass is fatal.
Sarcopenia has a marked effect on function in all activities of daily living, contributing (along with reduction in balance) to reduced gait speed, falls, and fractures. The combination of osteoporosis and sarcopenia results in the frailty which frequently occurs in the elderly population.
