We start off Season 6 with Part 1 of our 3 Part series on Longevity. What are the capacities we need to retain or develop in order to continue to live the lives we want to at the end of our lives? In Part 1, hosts Sarah Court and Laurel Beversdorf dive deep into the capacity of strength. We discuss the difference between strength endurance and maximal strength, and the myriad benefits of heavy strength training at any age. The episode includes discussions on common functional mobility tests for seniors, the neural adaptations resulting from heavy lifting, and practical guidelines for transitioning from endurance strength to heavy weights. Sarah and Laurel emphasize the long-term advantages of incorporating heavy lifting into regular exercise routines.
