Bodybuilding Can Slow the Aging Process at the Cellular Level
There’s no getting around it… Father Time is a bitch. He doesn’t care how nice you are. He doesn’t care how much money you have in the bang. Regardless, we are all going to age. Some of us more gracefully than others, but that youthful appearance you once had in your teen’s and 20’s, you better have some photos because it’s not going to last. So, grab your selfie sticks and start snapping all the photos you want now before Father Time decides to send things south. The good news from all of this though, is that through intense exercise, we can actually slow the aging process and science is backing it up.
Throw away the aging creams and slow the aging process
Aging creams may work a little to slow the aging process, but there’s nothing like good old tossing around the iron, showing the treadmill who’s boss, and getting after it in the gym to help keep you looking young. This keeps your lean muscle mass in check, body fat under control, and helps keep your skin nice and tight (keeping everything in the places they should be in your body). It’s a natural way to slow the aging process. But, age truly is just a number when your cellular age is in check. When your cellular health is good, it allows your body to function properly and optimally.

When cells start dying, morphing, mutating is when adverse effects start becoming apparent and you see your overall health slowly changing and deteriorating. The good news is that researchers are now saying that if you exercise intensely, you might be able to shave off around nine years of your cellular age.
To get a little scientific on you, researchers have looked specifically at telomeres which are the ends of all of our chromosomes. Through our telomeres, scientists can detect our cellular age. If our telomeres are getting smaller, it indicates the aging process. If our telomeres can stay the same size, we can maintain a healthy cellular age. Maintaining their size is not going to come easy. There’s no special diet or pill you can swallow. In order to maintain telomere size, you’re going to need to put in some sweat equity at the gym.
