Sports performance | Strength and conditioning

At Transitions Physical Therapy, our specialized strength and conditioning program is designed for adults who want to stay strong, active, and independent as they age. Whether you’re 45 or 65, it’s never too late to build the foundation for lifelong health and vitality.

Why strength training matters more after 45

As we age, our bodies naturally begin losing muscle mass and strength in a process called sarcopenia. Simply put, sarcopenia is the gradual loss of muscle tissue that typically begins in our 30s and accelerates after age 50. Without intervention, adults can lose 3-8% of their muscle mass per decade, leading to weakness, balance issues, and increased risk of falls and fractures.

The good news? Strength training can slow, stop, and even reverse this process.
