Episode notes
Entropy Shapes Physical Aging
- Entropy causes predictable loss of tissue organization and function over time.
- Longevity efforts aim to slow but cannot stop that entropy.
Global Movement Vs Joint Health
- General exercise gives systemic benefits but may not protect a specific degenerated joint.
- Joints that lack independent motion need targeted inputs to preserve articular health.
Prioritize Early Movement After Injury
- After injury or surgery, reintroduce movement as early as safely possible to preserve tissue quality.
- Avoid prolonged immobilization because connective tissue robustness decays rapidly without motion.
