Physical exercise has been reported to be one of the means to modulate aging. Sarcopenia is a physiological condition that accompanies aging. Sarcopenia is the loss of strength and muscle mass caused by the progressive deterioration caused by aging, which is also accompanied by the progressive loss of physical and cognitive abilities. Due to the loss of muscle mass, these factors cause pathophysiological changes at the neuromuscular and tendon level with an increased risk of suffering from chronic diseases.

The purpose of this GIR is to advance the understanding of therapeutic strategies to modulate the situation based on pharmacological, nutritional and physical exercise applications.

As a general objective, we propose to lay the foundations by which the regular practice of physical activity together with an adequate diet and healthy lifestyle habits, provide a successful aging situation and contribute to reversing or attenuating the problems associated with aging.
