Physical Capacity Maintenance

Meaning

Physical Capacity Maintenance is the active, long-term physiological strategy aimed at preserving an individual’s maximal functional reserve across all major physical domains, including strength, endurance, flexibility, and cardiorespiratory fitness. This involves mitigating the age-related decline in lean muscle mass, bone density, and aerobic power. In hormonal health, this maintenance is heavily reliant on sustaining optimal levels of anabolic hormones and growth factors, which are essential for tissue repair and adaptation to physical stress. It is a core component of healthy aging and longevity protocols.
