Nives Bogataj Jontez et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of COVID-19-related lockdown on changes in dietary habits, physical activity, and serum markers in healthy adults. Results showed a decrease in diet quality and energy intake during lockdown, as well as lower physical activity levels. Despite no significant changes in body composition, there was a significant increase in serum glucose, total cholesterol, and LDL post-lockdown.

Age-related changes in muscle architecture and metabolism in humans: The likely contribution of physical inactivity to age-related functional decline

N. F. Shur et al.

Summary: In the UK, it is projected that by 2035, people over the age of 65 will make up 23% of the population, with those over 85 accounting for 5%. Ageing is associated with changes in muscle metabolism and structure, but it is unclear how much of these changes are due to aging itself or sedentary behavior. Research on aging, physical activity, and muscle health is crucial for understanding the aging process and improving overall well-being.
