      Just gotta do more. The only way to get good at it is to do it. If you struggle with form on a pull up because of weight, rest (don't use it to push off) your foot on a chair or something underneath the pull up bar to ease some of the weight. Do that till you feel you don't need the chair and just do normal pull ups. It's not rocket surgery, it's just hard work. You can do it.

    My grandfather was like this. At 80 years old, my brother (4 at the time) could sit on his back while he was doing push ups. He used to do a max set of 60-70 several times a day. He and his brothers would chop down trees, spit roast entire animals over open fire, do random shit around the house all day, and never run out of energy. In his 50s, at just 5’7, he could stand at the base of a staircase and jump up 7 steps. We have a video or him doing this. I remember at 88 years old, he could pick 6 year old me completely off the floor from my shirt collar with one hand. He had the most ridiculous grip strength you could ever imagine. As a fun little challenge, he used to grab people by the wrist and say “try to get out” and it would be impossible. He was just a freak of nature. We have endless stories in my family of him doing ridiculous things.
    If it weren’t for the botched back surgery he got in his early 90s, I think he would have lived much older than “just” 100. The surgery immediately had him walking with a cane and hobbled over. I miss him every day.

    Detailed list:
    1. cardio
    - in long sustained efforts at lower heart rate
    - aerobic exercise in which you can still talk: running, swimming, biking
    - 2x 30 min per week
    - helps offset the decline of mitochondria with age
    - in short bursts of high effort
    - biking, rowing machine, HIIT
    - 1-2x a week for 3-8 minutes
    - keeps up the VO2 max (how much O2 you can absorb during exercise)
    2. Strength training
    - build muscle & bone density & maintain it
    - invest in your retirement early on because in old age you won't build the muscle back
    - carrying weights for long distances, grip strengths, pulling motion
    3. Strong stability: having control over your body
    - prevents falling in old age --> you can to be more active instead of recovering from injury
    - learn the perfect form for every exercise, correct your posture, add flexibility motions to exercise
    - start slow
    4. Caloric restriction
    - eat light meals but don't under nourish yourself
    - prevents cancer & maintains metabolic health
    5. Increase of protein intake
    - maintain muscle --> enables you to be more active into old age
    - rule of thumb:
    - 1g protein per day for every lbs of body weight or 2.2g protein for every kg of body weight
    6. good relationships
    - having long-term friends and supporting community, having long-term partners is key to your emotional health
    - litmus test: How satisfied are you in your relationship(s)?
    (7. sleep)
    - it's essential to start with these habits early in life in order to offset the old age diseases:
    - cardiovascular disease
    - cancer
    - neurodegenerative disease (e.g. Alzheimer)
    - diabetes

I am heart broken because I know the only thing holding me back from getting beyond my third heart attack is the strength of my interpersonal relationships. I have to take the blame for my own issues from multiple TBI’s, however I cannot fault the data on my stubbornness of being loyal to a partner that is just flat out not good for my health. This will literally be the death if me (that and the fact that everyone eventually dies). 😢

    @joemurdoch4138 11 місяців тому +110

    From what I've learned over the years, one of the most important aspects of it is to stay active, stay curious. I work in an industry where I run into a lot of people who work in construction or do mechanical work. In the position I meet a lot of people who are not professionals, but who like to work on projects, whether its something around the house, or just working on their car. Their minds are actively trying to solve problems, and they have a purpose, which is to finish their project. I knew a man in his eighties who built his own back porch, and I regularly run into people who are well past 75 and still working on something. While I know people my own age who have no desire to do anything with their off time but watch television, and who seem much older than they are.
    There is an old saying that basically goes the heart is happiest when the mind and the hands work together. Jay Leno has said this often. What does he do? Constantly works on cars. He can hire anyone he wants to do whatever work he needs to do, but he still likes to work on cars.
    William Shatner is in his nineties, but still speaks like someone much younger. I was listening to an interview with Brett Spiner (famous for playing Data on TNG) who is friends with Shatner. He said that Shatner is just a very curious person, and always wants to learn about something new, always has his nose in a book.
    Hopefully I can stay physically and mentally active as I get older.

He was an intelligent man and knew that he probably didn't know the answer. His answers would change but would generally include the factors mentioned in this video. The one factor that was always included was, "A good, supportive, loving wife."

    My father is 97. He is a voracious reader, and he remembers everything he reads. He's had a-fib for many years but handles it well. I think his primary key to longevity is that he eats consistently, never snacked, the desserts he eats are always very small portions. The most he's ever weighed was 175-180, the least was 165. Of course, these days he's down to 140 simply due to age. He thinks his longevity if from genetics. He has a brother who is 94... 2 other brothers passed away in their mid 80's, but they smoked.

I can repair things and RV all around Australia solo even safer than living in a suburb. With it I am able to help where it's needed and be more self responsible. I have never understood why people aren't using it to learn to the max.

    It really makes you want to get up and start living life as healthy and fulfilling as you can.

      To keep doing thing, you need to keep doing things. Family friend lived into his early 90s, and at that age could pick up an carry 2x3ft sidewalk blocks. They weigh 80-100lbs. He just always did what he always did, and never surrendered to being old. Stayed active so he could stay active.

    while sleep is mentioned as being key, I've no idea why it isn't all on it's own category. As stated, bad sleep literally destroys all the others. It affects your finance/work too which then keeps you in a poverty trap. eat properly, exercise regularly, sleep well. The last point regarding healthy relationships is also a major, major one. I've adjusted my view accordingly, so thanks for this video

I truly feel like I am back in my early 20s after I workout. Actually, I was more stagnant during my early 20s than I am now. I was sitting, doing a bunch of learning and work, and feeling under-circulated. Now I do about 64 cartwheels every 2 days and run about 4 miles in hilly terrain. It makes for a full-body routine. I like to cold plunge in the shower, too. All together, I think and feel better every time I do these things.

    We create suffering by not being able to feel and express emotion (emotional repression).
    If someone else expresses emotion...
    That’s a trigger for the one who is unable to feel and express...
    It’s safer to point to the unconsciousness of someone else
    than it is to open to the emotion buried within us
    that we don’t want to feel and express.
    We create suffering
    by not being able to feel and express emotion.
    A hell of a lot of suffering goes away
    when we get to the root of this cycle
    and a hell of a lot of suffering continues
    when we focus on the reactions of others,
    instead of how we produce and/or contribute to suffering
    by not being able to feel and express our emotions authentically...

    With regards to stability, it's a matter of positive mobility. Mobility plays a huge factor in our quality of life as we get older. I started doing Yoga 10 years ago, and my stability has increased tremendously. However, my balance didn't increase until I started doing weight training, specifically squats and lunges. I'm nearly 50 and I feel stronger now than I did in my 20's when I suffered from bouts of back and neck pain.
