Today, I am tackling a common misconception about body fat and joint health.
Many people believe that extra body fat protects your joints from rubbing, but in reality, it's the synovial fluid that provides this protection. In fact, carrying just 10 extra pounds can significantly harm your joints as you age.
As you age you to lessen the burden on your joints, you need to be lighter, however, you need to maintain muscle. So, you must lose the extra fat, not muscle tissue.
This is a primary reason why I maintain a low body fat percentage!!! Fat does not protect your joints. In the long run, it harms them!!!!
