The Last Decade of Our Lives

I was listening to the HubermanLab podcast with Dr. Peter Attia, a longevity expert. He explains what he uses with his patients to “back-cast” their health goals to design their exercise and nutritional programs.

Instead of setting a goal you want to work towards in the next few years, he turns it around and looks at what are the things you want to be doing when you enter that last decade of your life.

We will all be in our last decade at some point, and most will know when they are in it. So, let’s plan to enjoy those last years of our lives to the fullest!

The first step is when you think your last decade will be.Second, what do you want to be doing?The third step is where you are at with your physical health.

What protocols can we set in place to ensure we’ll be able to do all those things?

We need to be looking at prime movers for longevity!

GYMNASTICS

We’re dialling in on toes-to-bar! We’ll start by waking up the lats, core, and hip flexors, then move on to low and high bar progressions.

HYBRID TRAINING

This week’s HYBRID session, we are working through repeats of the middle section of the race and then finishing with the last part of the race in full.

MOBILITY

This week, we’re giving special attention to two key areas of the body: the hips and the thoracic spine. Together, they form the bridge between the lower and upper body, which is essential for maintaining healthy posture, fluid movement, and overall mobility.

If you experience tightness through the hips or upper back, or simply want to move with more ease and awareness, this session is designed to help.

WEIGHTLIFTING

This week in weightlifting, we are focusing on the squat clean. With a spicy complex followed by some clean pulls. Perfect technique session, working on the barbell timing and full depth in the clean
