- It's not really true for the vast majority of us. So strength is important. And I think, and there are misconceptions about strength too. So strength is the ability, how much force you can produce, right? And power is the rate at which you can produce that force. So you can be, you don't need a lot of, you can be really strong, but not actually necessarily all that powerful, right? And so people who aren't all that strong, you know, if I were to get out of this chair, that requires power. I have to rapidly push my body up, right? And one of the problems that happens in the world today is that people get really frail as they get old. They lose strength.
其實我們絕大多數人都不是這樣。所以，力量很重要。我認為，人們對力量也有誤解。力量是一種能力，你能產生多大的力量，對嗎？而力量是你產生力量的速度。所以，你可以不需要很大的力量，你可以很強壯，但實際上並不一定那麼有力，對嗎？是以，如果我想從椅子上站起來，就需要力量。我必須迅速把身體推上去，對嗎？當今世界出現的一個問題是，人老了就會變得非常虛弱。他們失去了力量。
- But the difference is that as they age, they stay strong. So Americans, as we get older, or Brits, as they get older, you know, the strength declines rapidly. By the time people are in their 60s and 70s, they're pretty frail. But hunter-gatherers remain fairly physically active as they age because they're doing stuff. You know, they don't have can openers. They have to, you know, they don't have jars anyway, but they're, you know, they have to lift things and carry things and do stuff that keeps them strong. And the end result is that they maintain that strength. And that strength is important because one of the real serious, most pernicious issues of aging is a disease, or it's a problem called sarcopenia. Sarco is flesh, and penia is loss.
但不同的是，隨著年齡的增長，他們會保持強壯。美國人隨著年齡的增長，英國人隨著年齡的增長，體力會迅速下降。到六七十歲的時候，他們已經非常虛弱了。但狩獵採集者隨著年齡的增長，體力仍然相當充沛，因為他們在做事情。你知道，他們沒有開罐器。他們必須，你知道，他們沒有罐子，但他們，你知道，他們必須舉起東西，搬運東西，做一些讓他們保持強壯的事情。最終的結果是，他們能保持這種力量。這種力量很重要，因為真正嚴重、最有害的衰老問題之一是一種疾病，或者說是一種叫做 "肌肉疏鬆症 "的問題。Sarco 是肉，penia 是損失。
