Successful aging is often defined as not getting sick, maintaining a level of cognitive function, and being active. As we age, we undergo physiological and psychosocial changes that determine whether we are healthy aging, active aging, and/or productive aging—that is, aging well. In this episode, Dr. Armstrong and Corbin Bruton discuss our thoughts on successful aging—moreover, what makes ordinary aging (extra)ordinary aging.

“Definitions of successful ageing: A brief review of a multidimensional concept.”

“What is ‘Successful Aging’?”

“3 Key Components of Successful Aging.”

In this episode, Dr. Armstrong discusses the often-asked questions of “How do you find a good trainer?” and “How do you spot snake oil and charlatans in fitness?”. Both are excellent questions and warrant consideration.

Dr. Armstrong discusses his thoughts on the qualities of good trainers and why trainers are not necessarily good trainers just because they have great bodies, do “cool stuff” on Instagram, are former athletes, or train collegiate/professional athletes. He also adds his twist on the YouTube video by strength coach, Alexander Bromley, titled: “3 Ways to Spot a Charlatan.

In this episode, Dr. Armstrong and Corbin Bruton review an article from Eat This, Not That! titled: "The Best Workout To Slow Aging and Promote Longevity, Science Reveals." They consider the benefits of aerobic exercise--specifically, high-intensity interval training--for slowing the aging process and weigh-in on the "best for" claims of the article and the supporting science. HIIT is beneficial, of course, but there is more to be consider (e.g., the exercise continuum) regarding exercise for aging well.
