Prostate Restored

Reports of increases in the production of adrenaline-related hormones with ageing have been thought to explain the apparent ability of older men to perform freak feats of strength.

The 96-year-old Englishman, who took up weight training at the age of 87, is able to do 61 45-degree chin-ups in 45 seconds. Just becoming more active in older age and performing low-level exercise programmes or even everyday manual tasks can increase strength and mobility in the ageing population providing a healthy and independent older age. Indeed, this is probably what makes your dad appear stronger, for instance, when lifting paving slabs – because he is used to it and strength can be very task specific. Performing regular weight training into older age also increases strength and muscle bulk. In fact, weight training in older adults has been shown to increase hormone levels to an equivalent level to that of untrained younger adults. But the fact remains that these gains will probably never reach those of a younger adult starting and performing the same training at the same time. There will almost always be a discrepancy in strength, power, coordination and muscle mass, all else being equal. Media stories of old man strength probably don’t provide the full picture. An older man holding a strength record is likely to have been training since a young age and has continued this into older age, allowing him to maintain strength and muscle mass at a higher level for longer. Otherwise he may be a freak of nature. Needless to say that most tales of old man strength are no doubt exaggerated. This is why you don’t see older people pitting against younger counterparts on an equal footing in athletics events and why we have age categories in athletic competitions: records tend to slide with age. There are of course, exceptions to every rule. A prime example of this is Mark Felix, who aged 50 is still able to compete with his considerably younger counterparts at the World Strongest Man competition.
