But some switch all of a sudden goes awry, right?

And that's a scary thought.

But long story short, the good news is if you do train, even at that age, you still will see adaptation.

You will get stronger, and you will hypertrophy.

In our hands, compared to college-age cohort, the gain in muscle mass is about 50%, which you would see as an older individual.

Yeah, and that's because with the current analysis we're doing, we're taking a molecular approach, albeit it was a 12-week study.

But we've trained a lot of older and younger individuals.

And the summary is we just don't, with our two-day-per-week training program, which typically tries to target around 12 to 16 sets per exercise.

Gin pop.

Yeah.

Right?

This is something that you would program as a Gold's Gym personal trainer, you name it, right?

Quality.

Yeah, yeah.

So long story short, we just don't see the same magnitude of hypertrophy when we look at our more nuanced methods of ultrasound or changes in dexaline mass, etc.,

Okay.

There's nuance there, but that's for men and women alike.

Okay.

So again, whether you're a postmenopausal or you're a male that's starting to really feel the andropause of effects and test is going down.

Your gains are about 50%, which would be seen in the college age cohort.
