    I'm 65. Still have - more or less - the physique I did when I was 30 ( a few more wrinkles). Still play tennis and spar with people half my age. Exercise regime: push-ups, pull-ups, crunches, stretches...all sorts of stretches, many of which I have 'made up' and which I don't see anyone, anywhere showing on youtube (Be creative, and figure out stretches to suit you injury and prophylatic needs). Nutrition: still eat meat, but have cut down on protein intake; muchos nutritional supplements (those who espouse the notion that these don't work or 'you only need to eat a whole food diet' don't know what they're talking about (just for instance, I take up to 6000 mg fish oil...and my inflammation is less now than it was 20 years ago); time restricted feeding (generally 17 / 7) and periodic longer fasts (2 - 5 days). The fasting makes up for a lot of ills. As for exercise, these young guys - like most here on youtube - have no idea what is good for someone in their 60s and 70s, i.e. emphasizing too many weights, too strenuous movements etc. Don't get me wrong, I exercise vigorously...but I exercise smart, i.e. lunges, yes..but without the weights; squats, yes....but without the weights; back extensions, yes...but you don't need weights. In fact, apart from some 30 lb'ers for curls, I don't use weights at all. And I'll let you know when the 100 mark rolls 'round....

    My grandmother is 99 and she says the key to a long life is eating healthy, drinking lots of water, not smoking or drinking alcohol, walking lots, being active (gardening) and being happy and keeping stress down to a minimum. She has never had a gym membership or ran a marathon. My dad was an orthopaedic surgeon and he always thought jogging was the worst invention ever in terms of overloading joints. He always said the risk reward was not worth it. He always said walking was a much better alternative. He is 86 and still very active and walking lots.

    My father just turned 91. He golfs once a week and he still does the grocery shopping and cooks for my mom who's become disabled. He retired at 60 and had open heart surgery and didn't think he was going to be around a lot but this is what I saw him do. He was always up 8 a.m. and drinking his coffee doing crossword puzzles with a light breakfast. He would go out and do a 5-mile walk until he was in his mid 80s and then come home and spend the rest of the good day doing yard work. The days he didn't go to his walk he went to the gym and did circuit training for 1 hour. He stopped going to the gym routine Lee when he turned about 89. He also read voraciously watch minimal TV except for in the evenings and always focused on the positive.

Eventually that knee was surgically stiffened and have had since, three R knee replacements , 3 R hip replacements and 2 L hip replacements. It’s a bit late now to look after my joints! However I have a positive outlook, look after myself. I have Three grown children, 6 Grandchildren, and eagerly awaiting the birth of my first Great Grandchild.

Her sister died at 102 and also lived on her own and was in good health when she died. Neither of them ever smoked or did drugs, they both stayed busy all their lives and got plenty of exercise.

    Great watch!! Lots of interesting stuff to be digested. I'm 68 and mind, body, spirit health is the first focus of my life. I'm not so interested in how long i live, but i want to enjoy my life to the max while i'm here. On the physical level, i walk at least 15000 steps a day, cycle at least 10 to 20km, do yoga 2 or 3 times a week, and lift weights every second day. I eat a plant based diet with a small amount of fish. Lots of nuts and seeds. No, dairy, pasta, rice or bread. I've been eliminating different foods from my diet for the past 20 years and eat pretty much the same thing every day, varied only by what fruit and veggies are in season. I follow the teachings of Buddha and have a regular mediation practice. Also have a strong belief in the law of attraction. I feed my mind with great podcasts and youtube videos like this one. I'm mindful of always choosing love over fear. People constantly tell me i shine. None of this began until i was in my late 40's when i realised i was getting older and it freaked me out. But that woke me up to the fact that there was nothing i could do about aging but there was a lot i could do about how i aged. Up until that point I was a complete couch potato, ate what i liked, drank a lot of wine and smoked cigarettes and a lot of marijuana. I do none of those things now. For most of my life i was around 20 stone (127kg.) I'm now half that weight and have been for the past 15 years and even if i do say so myself i look amazing.... Yes i've had several surgeries to take care of the loose skin that was a result of being so obese but my health is great, i take no medication and i'm pain free. Its difficult for even me to comprehend the changes in myself. i'm in total awe of this miraculous body that has responded so beautifully after years of abuse.

    I have the pleasure of working with plenty of elderly people and if I have a client that is over 90 years I ask them, "what is your secret to longevity?" They usually get a kick out me asking and then answer eating healthy, no smoking, little or no alcohol, being joyful, having social engagments, being involved with family, friends, activities, and gardening, but the most common is faith, reading the Bible, and prayer. (By the way they usually do not take many or no medications and or refuse recommended meds) anecdotal but I listen and follow my patient's advise.

      Humble? He's a narcissist. He talks in a permanent pedantic tone, constantly brags about his athletic and career achievements, discusses his own biometrics, eating, and exercise habits in excruciating detail, and interrupts people he's talking with to inject his own tangential musings about himself. Who the hell actually says "best version of myself"? This is a red flag. Narcissism is everywhere these days so it may be harder to notice.

      @AnonGaming333 3 роки тому

      @Tom Bilyeu He needs to spend way more time listening to other experts as well as the elderly and disabled. While we strive for optimal health, we will all eventually fail. His inability to value human life that doesn’t resemble youth is disturbing. He is falling into a pitfall- that because he considers himself smart he tries to work through too much that way, instead of seeking info. One example- “I’m not sure if elderly fall more” or if it has more serious consequences. Absolutely they do fall more. This is well documented, easy to find info, and his ignorance makes it hard to believe anything else that he claims. If he doesn’t know what he doesn’t know, then he hasn’t even started to really learn. He could probably do amazing things if he could change that. I know a lady over 100 years old who lives independently on a farm, in perfect health. Can she hoist 40 pounds into an overhead bin on an airplane? Who knows, she is too smart to overpack or take such a foolish risk. That is a key that he is missing- it isn’t all about being able to do everything you could when young. It is also having the wisdom to avoid injuries, as far as possible. I would have been less disappointed if this were titled “Peter’s musings on life.” Calling it joint health was a bad move. He didn’t get into that at all, thought I might have heard about boron, copper, and the like. What you can do now is edit it down to the valuable parts and retitle it.

There's something about dancing that makes all my joints for my hips down a lot healthier versus just running. There's research coming out as well that people that engage in play have a longer health span. The Healing Arts dance format is I really useful tool, and also helps build community Through attending those types of events

    Tom and Peter you are two of my favorite people to listen to for high-quality content that I can put into action in my life, which is currently 60's. So I am a little older than the two of you and have a shorter time span to 90, my goal. I love the vulnerability of both of you with regard to insecurity - there are two basic strategies to deal with this emotional landscape - talk therapy to change our thinking and emotional release work to release the traumatic energy that is trapped in our bodies. Trying to deal with insecurities without doing the release work first is like using a fly swatter to swat flies, you will likely be swatting for the rest of your life. Eliminate the flies, and you can make change fast. I resolved the disaster of my divorce in 18 months using this strategy when the average rate of divorce recovery is 5 years.
