 Paul C. Bragg and Roy White Bragg’s Weight Lift­ing Health Follower

My father’s good friend, Roy White of Long Beach, Cal­i­for­nia, is in his 106th year of life, yet he has a tire­less, pain­less and age­less body. He knows the Laws of Mother Nature and God and he lives by them. He doesn’t fear old age and is a young man in bio­log­i­cal years. We both could name many, many more friends who are in their 80s, 90s and even over 100, who are bio­log­i­cally youthful!

Iron Pump­ing Old­sters (86 to 96) Triple Their Mus­cle Strength in U.S. Study

WASHINGTON – Age­ing nurs­ing home res­i­dents in Boston study “pump­ing iron”? Elderly weightlifters tripling and qua­dru­pling their mus­cle strength? Is it pos­si­ble? Most peo­ple would doubt and won­der! Gov­ern­ment experts on age­ing answered those ques­tions with a resound­ing “yes” with the results of this reveal­ing and amaz­ing study! They turned a group of frail Boston nurs­ing home res­i­dents, aged 86 to 96, into weightlifters to demon­strate that it’s never too late to reverse age-related declines in mus­cle strength. The group par­tic­i­pated in a reg­i­men of high-intensity weight-training in a study con­ducted by Dr. Maria A. Fiatarone of the Agri­cul­ture Department’s Human Nutri­tion Research Cen­ter on Age­ing at Tufts Uni­ver­sity in Boston.
