Abstract Objectives To determine whether the associations between thigh inter-muscular-fat area, anthropometric characteristics and physical performance varies in old adults with low vs. high thigh muscle cross-sectional area. Methods Cross-sectional analysis of year 6 data from 1903 participants (52.2% women) of the Health ABC study aged 74–85y. Mid-thigh muscle composition (by CT), body composition (DXA) and physical performance were compared across quartiles of mid-thigh inter-muscular fat area. General linear model univariate analysis was used to study the associations between inter-muscular fat area and physical function according to low or high mid-thigh muscle cross-sectional area (using the 50th percentile). Results In participants with low mid-thigh muscle area, there was a threshold effect in which high inter-muscular fat was related to poor mobility function after the 2nd quartile (>23.7 cm2 in men and >21.3 cm2 in women). While, in participants with high mid-thigh muscle area, high inter-muscular fat was not associated with poor mobility function. Inter-muscular fat had no significant association with isokinetic knee strength in participants with either low or high muscle area. However, across all inter-muscular fat conditions, participants with low muscle area had lower leg strength than those with high muscle area. Conclusions The negative effects of inter-muscular fat in aging are greatly influenced by the presence of concurrent low muscle mass. Funding Sources NIA/NIH.

Contractile Tissue

To assess factors that limit human muscle strength and growth, we examined the relationship between performance and body dimensions in the world weightlifting champions of 1993–1997. Weight lifted varied almost exactly with height squared (Ht2.16), suggesting that muscle mass scaled almost exactly with height cubed (Ht3.16) and that muscle cross-sectional area was closely correlated with body height, possibly because height and the numbers of muscle fibers in cross section are determined by a common factor during maturation. Further height limitations of muscle strength were shown by only one male champion ≥183 cm and no female champions ≥175 cm. The ratio of weight lifted to mean body cross-sectional area was approximately constant for body-weight classes ≤83 kg for men and ≤64 kg for women and decreased abruptly for higher weight classes. These findings suggest a nearly constant fraction of body mass devoted to muscle in lighter lifters and a lesser fraction in heavier lifters. Analysis also suggests that contractile tissue comprises ∼30% less body mass in female champions.
