He now works at the Park City Hospital in sports medicine seeing patients of every level of fitness, with and without medical conditions. Dr. Max Testa discusses nitric oxide, the benefits of exercise, how everyone’s diet and fitness is personal to them, heart rate, and more. “At the end of the day, you have to go back to basics. Your diet has to be mainly based on healthy food.” “If your blood pressure goes down, your heart has to spend less energy to pump the same amount of blood per minute.” “Often we hear the concept of exercise as a medicine or exercise is medicine and there is nothing more true than that. Exercise has some pharmacological-like effect on the body.” “Not everyone responds to the same training.” “I start with what the science shows, for sure, but then I tell my patient, ‘The result is not as good as I was expecting; maybe we should try this other thing.’ Sometimes you have to try more than once to find the right balance.” “Everything about exercise and nutrition is multifactorial. You have to find the key to open your own door.” Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods. Connect with Dr. Max Testa:WebsiteSay hi to the AGEIST team!

What is the importance of strength and resistance training? Why do people fall more as they get older? How is Eric Levitan improving the quality of life of people as they age? What is sarcopenia? What are the benefits of working out in small groups?Eric Levitan is passionate about improving lives, driving innovation and nurturing start-ups – the perfect combination for creating Vivo. From personal experience, he recognized that fitness videos and online streaming classes, while convenient, weren’t effective for inspiring behavioral change: They lacked individualized attention and didn’t inspire accountability. Vivo has reinvented the concept of virtual fitness with live, interactive small-group classes and ongoing live, one-on-one progress assessments.Eric discusses how he came to start Vivo, the importance of strength and resistance training for anybody at any age, the benefit of working out in small groups, and more. Try a free Vivo class or sign up to get a special 50% off membership on Vivo here. Thank you to our sponsors: Timeline — our favorite supplement for cell support and mitochondrial function.

We’re largely ignoring the importance of resistance training or strength training.” “A lot of falls happen not necessarily because we lose our balance but because we’re walking and something distracts us.” “It’s never too late. Know what’s possible. Aging does not need to equate to decline.”Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods. Try a free Vivo class or sign up to get a special 50% off membership on Vivo here.Connect with Eric Levitan:LinkedInVivoSay hi to the AGEIST team!

His training strategies have been used by thousands of elite performers and top athletes worldwide, including the Navy SEALS, UFC champions, and dozens of teams from the NFL, NBA, MLS, NCAA, and more. Joel joins us to discuss the importance of aerobic conditioning, how to properly recover, the importance of stress, and more. “To me, performance is living a healthy, long life where you’re free of disease and you can do all the things that you love doing.” “Exercise, strength, and conditioning activity, they are tools to make our bodies more resilient to stress.” “Aging is really just the accumulation of stress over the course of our lives and ultimately our bodies lose the ability to adapt to it and then we start the declining process. If we can make our bodies much more resilient and much more stress capable, then we can delay that process significantly.” “You’ve got to get enough sleep. Sleep is the #1 thing. If you’re not getting sleep, you’re severely limited because that’s when your body is the most recovery driven.” “I have a really simple rule for most people. 80-90% of the time when you walk out of the gym, you should feel at least as good as when you walked in, if not better. You should not walk out of the gym feeling exhausted and defeated and destroyed.” “Exercise is the single most powerful tool that we have.” “If you have really bad genetics and you have a shitty lifestyle, it can catch up to you pretty fast.” Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods. Connect with Joel Jamieson:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInUltimate MMA Conditioning BookSay hi to the AGEIST team!

Our DNA is constantly listening to its external environment and then it’s making changes. Are we in a healthy environment? If so, let’s turn on the healing genes. Let’s turn on the stem cells for us to heal. But if it thinks that we are in a stressful environment, it’s going to turn up those inflammatory genes.”“How we live our life is actually medicine. Our biography actually affects our biology.”“If I want to become a better version of myself, what’s stopping me? What’s the thing that keeps stopping me? It’s probably old ways of thinking, feeling, and acting that finds you stuck.” “If we could start to take challenge as an opportunity, do whatever it takes to upgrade ourselves, to overcome that challenge, we’re suddenly a stronger version of ourself; we’re a more resilient version of ourself.”Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods.Connect with Dr. Kien Vuu:WebsiteInstagramFacebookLinkedInThrive State BookSay hi to the AGEIST team!

My friends that are older, when they were turning 50 they were talking about slowing down and I’m adding to. I’m adding to my physical labor, I’m adding to my mentality. It’s a totally different mentality than, say, my parents.” “Financial issues are a major cause for divorce.” “Money can be an emotional discussion and something that people are afraid to talk about with each other because they don’t want to get in a fight.” “A very valuable piece of living longer is removing stress. Take your stress away. And if your stress is about money, or family dynamics, or who's going to inherit what, and those types of things, let somebody help you. It’s so much easier.” Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods.Connect with Fanci:LinkedInEmail: Fanci.Worthington@ceterais.comDisclaimer: Fanci Worthington is a Financial Advisor offering securities and insurance products offered through Cetera Investment Services LLC, member FINRA, SIPC.

Moderating stress — that is, happiness — turns off those same genes and turns on genes that make anti-inflammatory proteins — proteins that decrease inflammation.” “The most important things are posse and purpose: having 6 friends you’re vulnerable to every month, having a purpose in life, and a job with latitude.” “When you exercise, you change the genes that are on in your microbiome. When you’re stressed, you change which genes are on in your microbiome.” “I still think you should shoot for cholesterol less than 70 in your blood.” “The most important things you do for brain health are posse and purpose, that’s one. The second one is to add speed to your exercise, that is to stress your muscle; and the third is to add speed to your brain games.” Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods. Connect with Dr. Michael RoizenBuy “The Great Age Reboot: Cracking the Longevity Code for a Younger Tomorrow” TwitterLinkedInSay hi to the AGEIST team!

Greg is a former partner at Insgroup, the founder and former CEO of Team Baby Entertainment, founder and former CEO of ROW Studios, and an investor. Greg joins us to discuss why men tend to struggle with being vulnerable and asking for help, how to get 1% better each day, the importance of reaching out to new people, and more. “How do we flip the midlife crisis on its ear and see that the next phase is our best phase rather than our best days being behind us?” “58% of men in midlife report anxiety, loneliness, frustration, fear of aging, deep regret around the decisions that matter most. And it’s a time period where self-confidence is at an all time low.” “You don’t go from fat to fit overnight. You don’t go from unhealthy to healthy overnight. It’s a series of daily wins and progress.” “Weakness is not asking for help. The weakness is thinking you know everything, that you’ve got to push that boulder up the hill all by yourself. That you’ve got to have all the answers.” “What if instead of viewing aging as something to be afraid of, as something to fear, what if we started to see aging as something aspirational, something inspiring?”“Focus on the small little wins or the 1% better each and every day.” “Don’t just be in motion. Take action.” Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods. Connect with Greg Scheinman:WebsitePodcastInstagramSay hi to the AGEIST team!

So, from 7 in the morning until 7 at night, that’s 12 hours, another 4 hours to finish digesting food, that’s 16 hours. Whereas ancestral humans only had 4 hours of eating and digesting a day.” “You can’t be in a go, go, go position all the time or you will burn yourself out.”“In animal studies, virtually every single type of age-related disease improves when the animals take rapamycin.” Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods. Connect with Ross Pelton:WebsiteBookArticles (1, 2, 3)Say hi to the AGEIST team!
