It has been demonstrated through extensive study that human beings, after the age of 30 start to atrophy or lose muscle mass at a rate of 10% per decade. This atrophy rate increases at a steady rate to 15% at the age of around 60; that is unless we do something about it. Anyway, because our muscles are the furnaces wherein our stored body fat is burned for energy, by our middle years we are often gaining a reasonably sized bulge around our stomach area and in the case of women, around the buttocks. Obviously this can happen in our earlier years as well but it is simply more likely to happen in most people as we get beyond our 50′s.
Earlier it was mentioned that the atrophy would take place unless we do something about it and the action we can take to make ourselves feel better about who we are, or better adapt to our age is exercise. It has also been shown that even a 90 year old with effective resistance training can stop muscle atrophy and even reverse the process with the hypertrophy or the building of the his or her muscle mass.
Now 50 years of age is not really as old as it used to be and sometimes people’s lives even only really start at this age. But while exercise is an option for some, it may not be an option for others. This is where over 50s tummy tuck jeans can be useful. These jeans have a control panel sewn into the front so that when they are worn, they flatten the stomach area. They also lift the buttocks. The overall result is that they make a person look slimmer to the point that it looks like they are a size or two smaller than they really are.
So we should not think of our lives as over when we reach this age or even that we should dread the need to use tummy tuck jeans. In fact this should be a signal that we need to make a few adjustments and that the tummy tuck jeans are not a sentence but a tool to execute these adjustments and create an even better quality of life.
So when we reach the age of 50 and wear tummy tuck jeans for over 50s, the compliments and comments about how good they make us look should serve to encourage us to look and feel even better. It should also encourage us to improve our body condition and quality of life through effective resistance exercise if this is an option. Life begins at 50 and do not dare think of it in any other way.
