That muscle mass development has nothing to do with living healthier or longer?


Well it's correlated, in that the resistance training associated with developing muscle mass also increases bone density and other factors that lead to living longer. Curious what would happen if you did resistance training while simultaneously stunting the development of muscle. Would you still get the same health benefits?
