I can run a marathon at 70. I can go back to school at 60. I can fall in love again at 80.’ Get rid of that cloak of ageism and your courage will be enhanced.”“My plan for when I turn 70 is to hike to the Everest base camp and run a marathon down which is an annual event that happens every May… What I’m hoping to do from that experience is show that this is what you can do at 70.” “Today’s 5 year old in the U.S., if they’re healthy, had good prenatal, and early childhood development, 50% of them have the opportunity to live to 100. That’s astounding!” “There are about 90,000 people in the U.S. that are 100 right now. By the year 2100 the projection is there will be 3,000,000 in the U.S. and that there will be 19,000,000 around the world.”Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods.Connect with Michael:WebsiteTwitterInstagramFacebookMichael’s non-profit organization: Circle of Generosity Say hi to the AGEIST team!

Thank you to our sponsor InsideTracker. Listeners save 20% on all products here. Save 15% on all Whoop products here. Use code "AGEIST" at checkout.Save 10% on all Elysium Health products here. What is pickleball? Why are there so many injuries from pickleball? What can pickleball players do to not get hurt? How can beginners get started in pickleball? What is the proper way to warm up the body before athletic activity like pickleball? What should someone do after playing? What things boost recovery? What are the benefits of cold and heat therapy for our muscles? Tim Ringgold is a musician, athlete, and pickleball recovery expert. After years of playing soccer as a child and again in his 30s and 40s, Tim developed a traumatic brain injury from one too many concussions. In the last 18 months, he has discovered a life changing sport: pickleball. Through pickleball he has found a sense of community, gotten into athlete shape, and enhanced his joy. He’s also experienced injuries, like many pickleball players. Now, he is providing resources for other players to reduce their chance of getting hurt and spend more time enjoying the game.Timestamps:00:00:00 Welcome to the SuperAge podcast00:00:35 David's life update00:01:29 SuperAge listener call00:05:09 About today's guest, Tim Ringgold00:05:22 Thank you to our sponsor, InsideTracker00:06:35 Welcome Tim Ringgold00:06:54 Tim's background00:08:30 Tim's experience with concussions00:10:07 How Tim found pickleball00:10:51 The history of pickleball00:13:14 Pickleball 10100:16:40 Pickleball injuries00:23:40 How to avoid injuries from playing pickleball00:31:34 What to do after playing to promote muscle recovery 00:52:40 How to start playing pickleball & resources “When you go out and play pickleball, you feel young at heart because it’s very social and it’s a lot of fun. People underestimate it because it’s so light, playful, and social, that there are actually physical demands on the body.”“Adults don’t really organize their activity around the concept of play. We work, children play. But there is a playfulness in pickleball that is undeniable and inescapable. You’ll see senior citizens, Boomers, Gen X-ers, laughing and playing. They’re in touch with something that they haven’t had in quite a while.” “The number one thing to minimize injuries is core temperature of the body, so heating up the body before you play. Nobody does it.” “When you feel good, walk away. Don’t wait until you’re sore or tired because you increase the odds of having an injury.” “Every part of the body is going through maintenance mode during sleep and you just can’t screw with that. If you wear that system down, your immune system gets compromised and that’s when things take hold.” Call into the podcast to get your question or comment answered on the air: (801) 871-5291Connect with Tim: WebsiteRecovery ResourcesPodcast Resources: PicklePlay AppPickleball KitchenTyson McGuffin Say hi to the AGEIST team!

Being Powerfully Fit, Full of Play, Joy, and Strength: Julia Linn

When she came upon the anniversary of her life-saving surgery, she decided to pay herself back by giving the gift of health. Now, she is powerfully strong, has gone through an incredible physical transformation, and looks at life in a new way. Julia shares her life of health struggles, how she got to where she is now, her advice for others wanting to transform and take control of their lives, and more. Thank you to our sponsor InsideTracker.

How can we optimize our recovery? When is the best time to do HIIT workouts? When is the best time to do strength training? How can we optimize our sleep?Sara Mednick, PhD, professor and author, joins us on the SuperAge podcast to explain the upstate and the downstate and how we need both in order to live better. We also discuss the best times of day to workout, how to optimize our sleep, and the importance of recovery. “Every little cell in your body has a clock and it’s looking for consistencies, consistent patterns. So the more you stay consistent with something, eating behavior, exercise behavior, or even thinking, all of that stuff your body is paying attention to.” “The earlier you eat, the earlier your onset of melatonin, which is your sleep hormone, and the later you eat, the later the onset of melatonin. You’re going to be pushing your ‘I’m getting tired’ signals the later you eat.” “You should keep your feet and your hands outside of the covers when you’re sleeping because it’s the best way for the heat to be constantly leaving your system while keeping your core warm.”Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome to the SuperAge podcast00:00:40 David’s upcoming travel plans00:01:58 Sign up for the SuperAge Mastermind Seminar and Group starting April 12th00:03:13 Call into the SuperAge podcast to ask a question or share a comment: (801) 871-529100:03:49 David answers caller question about weight training00:07:41 Thank you to our sponsor InsideTracker00:09:45 Welcome Sara Mednick, PhD00:11:40 What is the upstate and the downstate?00:14:22 About HRV (heart rate variability)00:23:52 Stress adaptation00:26:12 Sleep and recovery 00:28:57 Best time of day to do HIIT and strength training00:33:42 Best time of day for brain performance00:34:16 The importance of time restricted eating00:42:33 When to do the sauna00:47:09 HRV and inversions00:49:17 Recap of the episode Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods.Call into the podcast to get your question or comment answered on the air: (801) 871-5291Connect with Dr. Sara Mednick:WebsiteBooksSay hi to the AGEIST team!

Health, Work and Age in the Metaverse: Bradley Schurman

Thank you to our sponsor InsideTracker. Listeners get 20% off and free InnerAge here: https://info.insidetracker.com/ageistWhat are the metaverse and Web3? How can people 50+ benefit from rapidly advancing technology? How will the metaverse and Web3 change our work lives? What about how we connect with our communities? How will the future of technology correct for ageism, racism, sexism? Bradley Schurman, an author, demographic futurist, and opinion maker on all things dealing with the business of longevity, joins us on the SuperAge podcast for a fascinating discussion about rapidly advancing technology like the metaverse and Web3. Bradley explains how we can keep up with these innovations and use them to our advantage. What you will learn in this episode:- What the metaverse and Web3 are- How the metaverse and Web3 will change our work lives and how we connect with our communities- How nursing homes are using technology to keep their residents connected - How the future of technology will correct for discrimination against age, gender, location, appearance - Fraud in the digital space- Why it is so important to stay up to date with these innovations or risk being left behind“Thanks to decades of scientific and social innovation, we are in almost every measure living healthier, longer lives than ever before. So this idea that the age of 65 is somehow a stopping point has really become outdated.”“It’s a lot like a tree. When we’re young, all trees look the same, we all have the same kind of sapling, the same kind of structure. But as we live, we become more diverse. We have different outcroppings of branches, and leaves, and different cycles of when we bud.” “Tech companies’ single biggest problem is ageism. It’s not racism or sexism it is ageism and there is enough data out there to prove that.” “As we enter this new period of time for humans where there are more older people and fewer younger people, technologies like Web3 and Metaverse, they’re going to help us find efficiencies in the system because we simply don’t have enough younger people to take care of the older population.” “There are a lot of constructs in the world so why can’t they be in the virtual world as well? They will be. We’ll carry those constructs with us.” Timestamps:00:00:00 Welcome to the podcast00:00:37 About today's show00:02:38 Call in to leave a voicemail +1 801-871-529100:03:39 Thank you to our sponsor, InsideTracker00:04:52 Introducing Bradley Schurman00:05:11 About Bradley's book, The Super Age00:12:12 About the evolution of technology and the metaverse00:16:52 Healthcare and technology 00:19:27 The metaverse and decreasing job hiring discrimination00:24:39 The adoption & challenges of new technologies 00:34:41 Practical uses of the metaverse00:35:37 Crafting our digital avatars VS. who we are in the real world00:43:40 Fraud in the digital space00:45:53 The issue for those who are resistant to learning new technologies00:52:00 Finding the value in things that we cannot physically interact with 00:58:13 How technology will change our work lives Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods.Have a question you want to be answered by either David or one of our health experts?
