Longevity

My Longevity Hobby – Like many millennials, I am making longevity a hobby.  I read everything I can about it.  There is a combination of some amazing breakthroughs with a heavy dose of bullsh*t surrounding it, so it is hard to discern what is real and what is hype, or worse.  So far, I have enjoyed both Tony Robbins’s book Life Force (which seems a bit tilted to hyperbole) and Peter Attia’s book Outlive (which seems much more tilted to accuracy and solid advice).   I am a fan of Dr. Attia and I also like Men’s Health, which is quite interesting.  There is much more on the subject.  It is just one of my hobbies.

One thing I will mention is the concept gaining traction is that the goal is not the prolonging of life.  Who wants to live to 110 and spend the last 30 years in a wheelchair?  Instead, the goal is to prolong the healthy part of your life, which results in the coined phrase: Health-Span.

As I muse on this I wonder if Ripped at 65 leads to More Ripped at 66 — could it be someday Ripped at 75 and then…..?

Us Old Guys should certainly try our best not to get old.
