Longevity Training: What Should You Actually Train for a Longer, Healthier Life?
Forget chasing the perfect workout. If your goal is to stay strong, mobile and independent as you get older, what you train may matter more than how impressive your workout looks. We often think of exercise in terms of weight loss, building muscle or improving athletic performance. But there is another goal that deserves more attention: healthspan—the number of years you can live while staying strong, active and independent.

Is My Pain in My Head? Understanding Central Sensitization
If you’ve been told “nothing’s wrong” on your scans but you’re still in pain, you’re not imagining it. Your pain is real, and your nervous system may be the reason it won’t calm down. This process is called central sensitization. It happens when the brain and spinal cord become overly sensitive, amplifying pain signals even after tissues have healed.
