Millions of people missed out on regular exercise and are likely to have lost muscle mass during the Covid-19 pandemic, say experts.
Nearly a third of people believed their general strength had declined, according to a survey for Sport England. Almost a quarter (23%) of under-34s said it had dipped, either "a bit" or "a lot", while the figure was higher for those aged over 55.
Muscle loss can lead to long-term problems with mobility and balance. Those in turn can trigger or aggravate a whole range of serious health conditions. Experts say that that those with persistent problems should seek help from a doctor or physiotherapist, but there are things that many people can do to get themselves back in shape.
