At WHAT AGE rs MAN THE
STRONGEST.

The muscles in common with all the
organs of the body, have their stages
of developemenG and decline. Our
physical strength increases up to a
certain age and then decreases. Tests
of the strength of several thousands
of people have been made by means
of dynamometer strength measure)
and the following are given as the
average figures for the white man:
The lifting power of youth of II
years is $50 pounds. In his twentieth
year this increases to 800 pounds, and
in the thirtieth and thirty first years
it reaches it's height, 366 pounds. At
the end of the thirty first year the
strength begins to decline very slow
ly.
E8By the fortieth year it has decreased
eight pounds, and this diminution
continues at slightly increasing rate
until the fiftieth year is reached, when
the figure is $50 pounds.
After this period the strength fails
more and more rapidly until the
weakness of old age is reached. It is
not possible to give statistics of the
decline of strength after the iftieth
year, as it varies to large extent in
different individuals.
