PEAK FITNESS DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE
Remember your 20s’ body? Researchers report that physical fitness peaks at about 20 years of age and remains high until the early 30s. That is when the fitness levels begin to decline gradually into old age. The good news is that those who have the best fitness levels in their 20s usually stay physically healthy and use less healthcare services during their lives. Adolescence is the most important phase in all our lives. It’s when our cardiovascular, cardiorespiratory, skeletal, and muscular strength are built, forming the foundation of health for life. Bone mineral density (BMD) peaks in the late teen years. BMD is the main influence in whether a person develops osteoporosis and may feel its complications in later life. Physical activity and nutrition are factors that teens have the ability to influence the building of the best bodies they can for their lifetime. (1) Do they?
