Top of Mind Update On My Anti Aging Experiment

Author: Self-Actualization Above The Line August 25, 2025 Duration: 1:00:41

Three highlights of the two-month experiement.

* The progression works well until the muscle-related limitations are met. Then it gets harder. This is noticeable in hiking as thru hikers going 2,000 or more miles start off with ten mile days and finish with 30 mile days. The Aha is that with walking, you don’t really hit a muscle strength limit, the limit is endurance and this grows along with the neurotransmitter production.

* The connection between homeostasis and allostasis was major breakthrough since it comes into play in both physical and cognitive activities.

* My initial intention was to improve get started sprinting again after a multi-year layoff. One of the issues at my age - 70 - is the potential for injury so I was a little concerned and that is what got me started on the footwork drills, which led to understanding neurotransmitter production and more. My goal was to get back to my sprinting pace of 75 yards from five years ago. Using the neurostransmitter production breakthroughs. The limitations of muscles are not overcome so I needed more time to develop the involved muscles. I also realized I was 15 pounds heavier than when I ran five years so I decided to focus on losing the excess weight. In addition, I switched to wearing a weighted vest to build up my muscles and slow me down since the injuries tended to be high-speed and acceleration at speed related. So far, I am running with an 8-pound vest and I have beaten my time from five years ago. I have four more pounds to lose. Moving forward, I will use cycling weighted and unweighted sprints and other footwork drills weighted and unweighted.

You can find multiple live updates, including demonstrations at nearby parks on my Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/transformationafterfifty. Later, I will create these into a highlight reel with a more formal update.

Feel free to post questions.
