healthstyles deb mcdonald Weight management appears to be a key issue for many 'middle-aged' women who often discuss with their doctors ways of combating this problem. There are numerous factors, causes and lifestyle-related problems that contribute to overweightness. Most women tend to monitor their own body weight and have a perception of what is appropriate and desirable according to so-called 'societal' standards. This emphasis or pre- occupation with body weight is confirmed by body weight-height charts depicted by weight-loss programs, in medical offices or through media sources. Measurements should not be solely focused on this data; body fat (by skinfold testing) and/or waist circumference should be considered as well. Some fat accumulation is a normal function of the aging process and more is deposited in central areas, thus increasing the ratio of waist/hip girth. Loss of muscle tissue occurs also with aging and inactivity especially. With reduction in muscle tissue, comes loss of strength and slowing of metabolism. This reduction of muscle is responsible for most of the weakness women develop with aging and this could be greatly improved through regular exercise. However, few women notice the loss of strength that ogcurs with the passing of time; most seem "to accept an inability to accomplish specific tasks (i.e: carrying heavy groceries, etc.) failing to natice that they were once stronger and able to perform these functions. This cee of progressive weakness also promoted through cultural attitudes concerning women to be weaker antl perhaps more physically dependent upon men to assist in strenuous; tasks. Some of the observed decrease in metabolism is part of the aging process itself, but the major determinant of resting metabolic rate is lean body mass; therefore a reduction in this area will result in a slower metabolism. Exercise is the only course of therapy that can preserve and increase muscle mass, and maximize the muscle loss that occurs with aging.
