Question 1

which nutrients are a valuable resource in trying to build muscle?

Accepted Answer

Healthy diet: When you're trying to muscle up, try to eat one gram of protein (preferably lean) for each pound you weigh, or 2.2 grams for each kg. A snack of maybe 20 grams of protein after a workout is helpful. Avoid greasy, sugary and salty foods as much as is convenient. Creatine isn't a nutrient but will help you gain mass. I am very glad you're undertaking fitness activities -- make it a lifetime habit.

Question 10

which type of rehabilitation programs or resources would elders use?

Accepted Answer

Aquatic exercise: Check the local community or senior center. Swim , water aerobics or walking in chest deep water. We are about 80% lighter standing in chest deep water due to buoyancy. This will make exercising easier. Start with an amount that is relatively easy and comfortable, then repeat 3 or more days per week then add a few minutes to the program once  a week. Don't over do it. Slow but steady wins the race.
