RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

Starting at the age of 25, we lose half a pound of lean muscle tissue every year. Losing that tissue causes a drop in metabolism (how fast we burn calories), which then causes body fat gain. This is why it's important to strength train (3x/week) & consume a whey isolate protein (Ex: ISOPURE Zero Carb) after exercise so that we maintain/create new muscle tissue = burning more calories/day.
