How to Master Ageing

This is not an email about plastic surgery, injectables or any other cosmetic 'tweakment' to delay ageing. 

Zero judgement if you're someone who is into that - you do you - but that topic gets enough airtime and it's so boring. 

What I wanted to tell you was that if optimising your health is a priority, so you're living a pain-free, energetic existence when you retire, there's some very powerful research you might want to look at...

We know the obvious stuff - don't drink alcohol excessively, sack off smoking, try to eat wholefoods, reduce blue light exposure from our laptops etc. etc.

But for a long time, there hasn't been robust data on what TYPE of exercise has the biggest impact on your body's longevity. 

So here's the answer...

This is not to say cardio training is futile from an ageing perspective. It's just you need to do alot more of it to see longevity results. 

A researcher from Brigham Young University found that running for 30 or 40 minutes every day for 5 days each week can decrease cellular ageing by up to 9 years.

That’s awesome...BUT for most of us, that's a big time commitment that isn't realistic on a consistent basis. 

Put simply - preparing your body so it thrives in your 60s, 70s and 80s is either going to come from 150 minutes of running a week, or 90 minutes of lifting weights. 

Life is full on - we all want to get as much ‘bang for buck’ when it comes to training. 

Having this data is clarifying.
