🚨 The more parents exercise, why the thinner? Quick check! Are your muscles healing? 💪✨

Anyone with a parent aged 60-70 + who is fit, cycling, lifting weights, or likes to exercise is great! 👏 But...Have you ever noticed that perhaps the more he exercised, the smaller he looked, the leaner and complained of lack of strength?

Today, let's unravel the "exercise elderly nutrition" so that your children can take care of you properly, or that anyone who has reached the age of old will deploy to take care of themselves! 👴👵💖

📉 Why is the fit, the thin, the muscle lost?

The main problem is not exercise, but "not enough nutrients," especially "protein"!

As the body ages, it becomes resistant to muscle building (Sarcopenia), causing older people to need protein higher than young adults to maintain their muscles.

Plus many elderly people tend to:

❌ eat less, anorexia, eat only one or two meals a day.

❌ I don't like dinner because I'm afraid I'm uncomfortable.

❌ After the workout, I didn't eat anything.

When the body uses energy but no "protein" to repair it, the body has to break down the same muscles, and the more exercise, the lower the muscles. 😱

💡 Trick Food Schedule (Elderly Editions)

If you can't eat three meals, try "two main meals + one liquid meal" like this, ensuring that you have all the nutrients and that you don't have a tight stomach!

🍽️ Meal 1: The main meal is arranged in full (midday).

Carbohydrates: 3-4 ladles of steamed rice or brown rice to stock up energy for use all day and exercise.

Protein: 200-250 grams of meat (simple shift is the size of 2 palms)

✨ Tip: It is recommended as "fish meat" because it is easy to digest, easy to chew, does not cause elderly bloating.

🚴‍♂️ Evening: Exercise

Cycling or lifting a light weight (such as a 5 kg dumbbell) for 40-50 minutes to stimulate the muscles.

🥛 Meal 2: Golden Minute After Exercise (Instead of Dinner)

This is the most important meal! If you don't want dinner, turn it into a "high-protein liquid" instead.

Recommended menu: High Protein Milk for the Elderly or Whey Protein 1 Tumbler / Bottle (get around 25-30 grams of protein)

Chew Toy: Dine with 2 Boiled Eggs (Eat both egg whites and egg yolks)

✨ Tip: Drinking liquid protein immediately after exercise, the body absorbs to repair muscles very quickly and is comfortable in the stomach, not disturbing sleep.

📝 Epilogue summary

Exercise is very good for the veteran, but must always be paired with "up to protein" and "sufficient energy." Try this trick to apply to your parents at home. Just add protein after exercise, you will have a strong muscle mass, sit and walk easily, and stay as a bodhisattva for us for a long time. 🥰
