JA3️⃣ lower body strength targets to aim for at 40.
➡️ Squat your bw x5
➡️ Reverse lunge 80% of your bw x5
➡️ Hinge your bw x5
These are difficult targets and will take some time to achieve if you’re new to lifting.
But they are achievable if you learn to lift properly (hire a strength coach) and follow a well structured strength program (3 x week) for long enough.
As you get older, the strength targets go down.
The important takeaways…
➡️ Strength, relative to your bodyweight, strongly correlates with health span (functionality / injury resilience).
➡️ You don’t ’need’ to be this strong. But your strength WILL decline at some point. So the higher you can get it, the better you will fair later in life.
➡️ These exercises are not mandatory but they are mandatory movements (squat, lunge, hinge).
Only do exercises that you can perform safely, with good technique.
