    Does aging really contribute to weight gain/loss of muscle?

    @xene19 So they did a landmark study on this recently and "metabolism" doesn't drop until age 60. You do start losing some lean mass past 30 if you don't maintain it, however it's easy to maintain and even add muscle for a few decades more. Source in layman language...
