    My 94 year old neighbor in my retirement park lifts weight 5 days a week, followed by 30 minutes of swimming non stop, and finishes with jacuzzi time. He walks tall and stable. His mind is sharp and hearing is good. He can still drive. He’s determined to move his body as much as possible for as long as possible.

    I’m a 70 year old female who’s always been mildly active. I’d bike, workout with weights, run on the treadmill, etc but I was inconsistent. At age 63 I ended up with osteoporosis and a T-score of -4.1. Yeah, I was a crumbling mess waiting to happen and was put on a Prolia injection every 6 months so I started running more. But I started building back bone. 2 years ago I got serious about going to the gym and went 5 days a week because my progress of building bones slowed down. I lost a little weight because I was essentially doing more cardio but wasn’t building muscle during that time and my bone density progress improved but not by much. About 6 months ago I changed the intensity of my workouts and did more resistance training and started to see improvements in my body and muscles. Another thing I did was to change my nutrition habits. It wasn’t until I changed my diet as well as exercise before I started to feel things happening. I’m hoping this will lead to a step up in my improvements at my next bone scan (although I’ve already had a 34% gain in density since I started 7 years ago). So I’d love to see something on the effects of nutrition as well as exercise on bone health because I think it all has to work together but it can be done even at 70!

      Suggestion, as stated in the video, add a good quality collagen to your nutrition plan, Great Lakes Collagen is most effective, order it direct from the company to make sure you have a fresh product, also, suggestion maintain a two to four day a week workout schedule and intensify the resistance training, your body needs to recoup after workouts, you’ll have the greatest gains when your body is in recovery, it’s really not necessary or as effective as I’m learning, to workout every day, I’m in my 60’s and exercising to maintain strength and longevity 💪🏾

    I exercise a lot since a kid, having a very active life moving non stop. Now at , 70 walk many hours daily, hiking weekends, my bone density remain unchanged, still 5.4 height 110 weight, stable in decades. I felt 2 times in april, very badly during my late night walk, but no broken bone, still walk normally after the accidents and still able to hike the mountain on weekends. Except I suffered pain in the affected areas, knees, shoulder, arms, specially during the night in bed and long immobility, for months. I just recovered almost completely after about 6 months. Exercise is very crucial. At 70 I do almost everything daily, planking,walking, squatting, push ups, lunging, every single day, whenever I can during the days.
    Feeling strong, feeling good, feeling happy. I stopped telling people my age as it sounds sarcasm or like a joke. Give exercise a priority in your life to save you health troubles.

    My great grandfather does not really workout per say, but he was a farmer and a fisherman until he was 97. That man was something else. He lived alone basically in the middle of their farmland which his children eventually moved out of. And he did everything that other farmers and fishermen did, tilling and planting the fields, feeding fish and eventually harvesting them, etc. Once he stopped one of my aunts told me that he eventually started loosing strength at the end of his life. Still reached 100 years though. I can only imagine how strong his skeleton is at 97.

      @@aidenralston5477 most of the time when people tear their bicep they tear the smaller bicep which only result in a relatively small strenght decrease that can be compensated for. For example 2 famous RUclips strength athletes tore their bicep...Larry wheels and Eddie Hall for both it was the small bicep. There's the weak point....I think neither had surgery to fix it and that that's the "consensus" way of doing it.

      You are incorrect that genetics have nothing to do with how long you may live. Genetics are very important as well as lifestyle you lead (environment also). You do know Alzheimer’s, diabetes, cancer and most autoimmune disorders are hereditary? Degenerative diseases are mostly hereditary. Just because you work out it won’t make you live long enough than those who are genetically more gifted. There are people who exercise and eat relatively healthy and still die at 40 or younger from cancer. It’s what you eat too. Living to 90 isn’t that rare. Most average Americans live up to 80s but the quality of life may not be as good as those in other countries who have better longevity. My grandmother died without being on any medication though she was near 110 years old. But my grandfather whose gene was not that great died 84 from cancer and died in a hospital. They both ate healthy food. Not obese. But my grandfather was exposed to certain chemicals maybe as he was a professional tailor. Those fabrics contain chemicals to deter bugs and such. And he was sitting quite a lot to make suits. He ate very healthy and quite disciplined. My grandmother was a midwife and a nurse, quite active. They both ate the same food mostly prepared at home. It’s the genetics and lifestyle that matter as lifestyle has ability to turn the on and off switch of those genes. If your grandparents didn’t smoke they could have lived longer with less medications. I don’t know any Americans who don’t take medications in later years either. Westerners are relatively unhealthy compared to most East Asians.

    Bone is such an interesting tissue. Until recently, I thought of bone as a sort of inert, hardened, senescent mass but have come to learn that it is one of the most dynamic and important tissues in the body. This video is a great introduction to the features of bone remodeling. The one thing I was hoping you would mention is the mechanism by which osteocytes sense mechanical strain through deformation of protein fibres in the extra cellular matrix and signal bone remodelling through sensing of that force. The mechanism that allows bone to sense loading and react to the stimuli is amazing and not fully understood yet.

      Agree! I first learned how amazing bone tissue is, when I was dealing with my teeth problem. Isn't it kinda like a miracle, that after tooth is removed, space left from tooth root gets filled with blood, which then turnes into bone? Or if you had infection in dead tooth, this infection dissolves bone tissue under tooth root, but after infection is killed - you are not left with a hole in yor jaw bone. No, bone tissue start to regenerate and fills the hole. And you may not even need to remove this dead tooth.
      So... bone tissue is AMAZING, Ilove it))

    Skateboarding can be dangerous if you're overconfident but if you're taking safety precautions it can be really safe. I want my bones to be extremely strong so that when I fall hard the wrong way they won't break. I believe that by skateboarding I'm staying young. My goal is to have the body of a 25 year old or younger. And I want to be able to skate for 12 hours a day every day but I'm building up to that.
    After skating I feel "high". A much better high than any drug can give me.

      A lot of folks have been conditioned to believe that heavier weights are somehow more injurious. While you can definitely injure yourself lifting something outside your capabilities (strength and technique), it's completely overblown in my opinion. Slowly develop the technique to allow you to work into the heavier (more intense) weights and you'll be quite fine if you listen to your body. Progressively getting better at resistance training with appropriate intensity is the key to the positive body adaptions. A lot of folks can miss the intensity and end up with little results.
      I wish I could get my 71 year old mother to start resistance training. So many benefits for such a small investment.

    My 93 year old neighbor walked her dog every single morning at 5 o’clock. I use to ask her what if a stranger tries to hurt her. She just said well if they do then she went out moving and hopefully gave em a good fight, lol! She was so adamant about making sure you keep exercising even after she became blind. Eventually she passed but she lived a long beautiful life. I remember her lessons till this day and try to exercise each day.

    Been doing martial arts for a very long time and part of the hardening of bones is definitely an incredible process! You can start with a simple bucket first put in something like beans not a hard and dense material yet and just begin to strike into the bucket fingers out and after the first month switch to something a bit harder such as smooth cheap fake marbles and as the bones get micro fracturing and then grow and adjust into it and in a few years you can literally slam your fingers into hardwood, gravel it's not for everyone but seek professionally practical instructors that won't be teaching you useless techniques.

    True, I'm training MMA my whole life ever since I was 8 years old and I can recall the most recent nasty fall when I was 21 and running to turn the stove off. I slipped on varnished parquet because my mother sprayed her hair with hair spray there and I was wearing cotton socks. I dropped like a plank directly on my left hip with all 120 kilos at that time (with the height of 188 cm, which is why falling from a standing stance is scary to me). I only received a small, deep bruise which I couldn't even see. Never broke a bone in my life despite many scary situations.

I only got a bruise and no broken bones, and I think it was because I do heavy squats (2x bodyweight) once every week. My shins probably got harder from lifting too, so it’s perfect for when I go all out kicking the heavy bag and not worry about a Conor McGregor incident

    • @CosmicLimaBeans
      @CosmicLimaBeans Год назад +2

      @@jayasmrmore3687 Answering because nobody has replied yet. From my understanding, GERD will be helped with exercise to a point. I.E. going on a jog or walk will help more than laying down or sitting on a couch. However, diminishing returns will happen quickly. Some exercises may make a patient feel GERD more, such as heavy squats or deadlifts (GERD should not be what stops you from a good exercise routine bear in mind, due to other mitigation methods below). Although, I find excersing (with the ones that can help) will not be enough for the majority of people. Dietary control and knowing what causes the GERD will vary from person to person. Most commonly greasy, spicey, or high acid food/drink. Timing can play a roll, like not eating before bed can help. Large meals can also worsen GERD. With dietary control and being physically active, if one may experience GERD still, it may be wise to seek pharmacological methods with the assistance of a family care doctor.
      An ideal scenario, a light walk after eating a meal that lacks grease, acid, or spice that is of low-moderate size. Not eating until "full".
