Because muscle mass decreases with increasing age. As long as you don't do anything. "Over 40s Fitness Special we want to give some strength workouts Without a gym or a variety of equipment. Actually, all you need is your body, your will and a little perseverance - because then you will see the first successes.
Who doesn't know him? Mike Diehl knows what he's talking about. As an athletic trainer for the German Fed Cup team and athletic coach in the Middle Rhine Tennis Association, he made the tennis pros sweat. But the varied workouts are also great for the “amateur tennis player”. And the best thing: you can easily do the workouts at home in a small space and with virtually no equipment. And they don't last long either. They are extremely efficient and can be trained 3.5 or even 7 times depending on your fitness level. So there is something for everyone! And as Mike likes to say: "No excuses"!
