The Decline in Neuromuscular Reserve with Age and the Benefits of Kettlebell Exercises in Arresting this Decline   As we age, our bodies undergo numerous changes that can affect our physical function and quality of life. One such change is a decline in neuromuscular reserve, which can lead to decreased strength, stability, and coordination. Fortunately, regular exercise, including kettlebell exercises, can help slow the decline and improve neuromuscular reserve. The Importance of Maintaining Type 2 Muscle Fibers One of the key factors in preventing the decline in neuromuscular reserve is maintaining our type 2 muscle fibers, also known as fast-twitch muscle fibers. These fibers are responsible for quick and powerful movements and are often the first to decline with age. Regular resistance training, including kettlebell exercises, can help maintain type 2 muscle fibers and improve neuromuscular reserve.
