Rothstein Quoted in Weight Training Article

AARP site TheGirlfriend.com featured insight from Alexander Rothstein, M.S., coordinator and instructor for the Exercise Science program, in an article about weightlifting. Rothstein confirms the strength benefits of weight training for those in middle age and beyond. “[It reduces] the effects of sarcopenia—loss of muscle with age—and stimulates an increase or maintenance of bone density. Both of these are very important as you age,” he says.
