TL;DR Summary

A new study reveals that resistance training stimulates the production of the anti-aging molecule CLCF1 in muscles, which helps preserve muscle strength and bone density as we age. While young muscles naturally release CLCF1 during exercise, older muscles require targeted resistance training to boost its levels, potentially offering a new approach to healthy aging and treatment of age-related musculoskeletal conditions.
