    The Science Behind The Super Age Games

    This week on The AGEIST Podcast, David Stewart sits down with Heather Hurlock, founding editor of The Mindset by Super Age, to explain the thinking behind the Super Age Games and the science that shaped them. The conversation breaks down why healthspan, not simply lifespan, is the real target, and how eight trainable markers can help people understand where they are now and what to work on next. Listeners will learn why VO2 max, grip strength, balance, agility, working memory, relational capacity, functional strength, and endurance under load matter for long-term vitality. The episode also makes the case that longevity is not an abstract future goal, but a set of daily practices, tests, and community-based commitments that can be trained now.

We're looking at large data sets that are pointing to actions you can take right now that affect your health span and your lifespan.” “We were looking for markers that were testable quickly, like in under five minutes at home that don’t require a whole lot of special equipment, but are backed by deep peer-reviewed mortality and health data and then trainable in weeks, not decades.” “It helps people find the tools and the motivation to build a better life for themselves. That's what we're doing here.” Connect with Heather Hurlock Website: heatherhurlock.com/ LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/heather-hurlock The Mindset: superage.com/the-mindset/ Connect with AGEIST Newsletter Instagram Website LinkedIn Tune in to hear more on this episode of The AGEIST Podcast or check out the full interview transcript.

    Christene Barberich: How to Edit Your Life at 57

    A conversation with the Refinery29 founder and mind behind A Tiny Apt. about what midlife sharpens: your sense of what matters, what no longer fits, and how your surroundings affect your mood, sleep, and energy. Christene explains why small changes at home can reduce background stress, why reinvention feels more urgent with age, and how to make choices that reflect who you are now rather than who you used to be. Listeners will come away with a clearer way to think about editing their space, protecting their attention, and moving toward change without waiting for perfect conditions. It is a practical episode about building a life that feels more intentional, more livable, and less crowded by other people’s expectations.

Key Moments “And I’m gonna tell you, if you have trouble sleeping, paint your bedroom a dark color, because my husband and I feel like we are in a hotel room every night.” “I don’t want to leave anything on the table. I want to make it to the end and just be like, I f***ing played that hand so well, and I didn’t play it small. And that can be really scary, you know, especially when you feel like failure is more detrimental as you get older and harder to recover from.” “You don’t have to conquer your goals overnight, but when you start moving in the direction of it, when you make that decision, it is like, miracles really do start to happen.” Connect with Christene A Tiny Apt.

    Joanne Stanway: Holograms, Not Dinosaurs

    Ever wonder what holographic communication actually looks like in practice? Joanne Stanway, in tandem with Proto, has her finger on the pulse and plays an active role in the development of the medium, from life-size live beaming to AI personas that can answer questions in real time. She also gives a clear account of late-career reinvention, including what changed when she left a long-term PR role to start a company with her daughter at 62. Listeners will come away with a better understanding of how this technology can improve training, education, and patient communication rather than simply add novelty to an experience. The episode is especially useful for anyone thinking about the future of healthcare, women-led entrepreneurship, and how to keep evolving without aging into someone else’s idea of obsolete.

    Dr. Chris Rhodes on Fasting Without Hunger

    Dr. Chris Rhodes explains what fasting is actually doing in the body, where the benefits begin, and why shorter fasting windows may not deliver what many people expect. He walks us through the science behind fasting mimetics, including how his team studied a 36-hour fast and built a supplement around the molecules that arise during it. You come away with a clearer way to think about hunger control, food noise, metabolic health, and the tradeoffs between fasting, appetite-suppressing drugs, and everyday eating. He also offers a sharp take on saturated fat hype and makes the case for a more personal, evidence-based future in nutrition.

    Donnie Moss: Strength Training Starting at 55

    Donnie Moss explains how she went from cardio-only routines to strength training at 55 and why she now pushes “move every day” as the baseline for feeling better.

    David Donnelly: Can Humans Reach 150?

    Filmmaker David Donnelly joins us to discuss his new documentary Forever Young, an exploration of the rapidly advancing science of longevity. What began as a skeptical investigation into whether the hype around anti-aging breakthroughs was real ultimately revealed a growing body of research focused on extending healthspan and preventing disease. We examine what the science supports today, from the role of prevention and lifestyle to emerging therapies now entering human trials. Along the way, David raises larger questions about purpose, social connection, and how society must adapt as people begin to live longer and healthier lives.  Special Thanks to Our Sponsors Our Place: The top cookware brand for beautiful, non-toxic, PFA-free pots and pans.

    brain and body, plus what chiropractic can and cannot claim to “treat.” He shares a practical framework for finding a chiropractor you trust, including what to look for if you’re bringing in kids, athletes, or older adults.

It’s more like a hologram—everything is connected to everything else. If one part has an issue, it can affect the whole.” “Instead of only asking ‘what stops disease,’ ask: ‘what creates health?’ That’s salutogenesis—the creation of health.” Connect with Dr. Peter Website: drpeterkevorkian.com Life Chiropractic College West: lifewest.edu/president LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/drpeterkevorkian Clinic: westwoodfamilychiropractic.com Connect with AGEIST Newsletter Instagram Website LinkedIn Click Here for the full interview transcript.
