Even people who are conscientious about exercising, as I imaging Sylvester Stallone would be, experience muscle loss. Stallone was born 6 July 1946. He’s 5’10” tall.

Age-Related Muscle Loss, Sylvester Stallone
The lack of any fat in the hypodermis (I had to look up that term!) creates more clearly pronounced muscular definition and prominent veins/arteries, as in the 2nd photo. Gary (who used to lift weights) never had that kind of definition, and I couldn’t figure out why. He said it was because he didn’t take steroids, as many body-builders do. But sarcopenia could also cause this effect, simply from aging? As my aunt used to say, “Getting old isn’t for wussies!” Melinda
