SUMMARY: "While sarcopenia can be argued to be a progressive issue spanning the later part of life, there is some evidence showing that for most individuals this may not be the driving problem. Rather, that this functional degradation can lead to increased risk for catastrophic injury as age increases [21]. When these injuries occur and a person is limited to bed rest for weeks or even as little as a few days, there is a rapid decrease in muscle due to a lack of stress being applied to the musculature (even things as simple as standing can help tremendously); so, having surgery or going through a non-weight bearing period of time leads to rapid decreases in functionality that need to be actively rehabilitated immediately after the period of immobility – otherwise the process of sarcopenia has just accelerated years in a matter of days or weeks [21]."
