We conducted a population-based cross-sectional study to identify the prevalence of aging male’s strength reduction (AMSR) and factors associated to this condition. The study included 421 men aged 40 years or older, living in the urban area of Pelotas, Southern Brazil. The questionnaire covered sociodemographic, behavioral and health variables and, to assess the aging male’s strength reduction, one question of the Aging Male’s Symptoms Scale was used. The prevalence of AMSR was 19.0% (CI95% 15.2 - 22.8). After controlling for confounders, the AMSR was significantly associated with aging, smoking, physical activity score and self-perceived health status. Our findings reinforce the need to keep healthy behaviors such as not smoking and regular physical activity as a healthier lifestyle could reduce the AMSR acceleration and increase life quality and expectancy.
