This Type of Exercise Reverses Heart Aging, Lowers Blood Pressure, & Has Anti-Cancer Effects

(00:00) As we age, the heart undergoes specific inevitable changes — it tends to get smaller and stiffer. This can impact its efficiency, potentially reducing our exercise capacity and elevating our risk for heart failure. Remarkably, 2 years of vigorous exercise in sedentary 50-year-olds reversed some of the heart's age-related structural changes and stiffness by up to 20 years, effectively giving them hearts akin to those of 30-year-olds.

(02:56) A 6-week vigorous aerobic exercise program (20-60 minutes, 3-4 days/week) has drug-like effects on blood pressure. This is a big deal. 20% of people ages 18-39 have hypertension (same goes for half of older adults). It's a big risk factor for cardiovascular disease and dementia.

(04:14) Lactate generated during vigorous exercise is a signaling molecule for increasing BDNF. BDNF is essential for increasing neuroplasticity, helping existing neurons survive, growing new neurons (neurogenesis), and forming connections between neurons.

(07:25) That lactate also increases levels of serotonin (correlates with improved impulse control) and norepinephrine (aids focus & attention).

(08:37) Exercise protocols for maximizing BDNF:

• 30-40 minutes at 80% max heart rate
• 6x 40-second all-out intervals, each followed by a recovery period

(09:40) Vigorous exercise, which generates a high degree of shear stress, destroys circulating tumor cells. Stage 3 colon cancer patients who engaged in aerobic exercise had a 40% reduction in disease recurrence & 63% reduction in mortality.

I hope everybody is enjoying their 60 day free trial of communism.

@Pit_Master Awesome!

No matter how scared you are remember never trade a freedom you want in the future for a comfort you want now.

The Department of Veterans Affairs is preparing in case it needs to take on its little-known role as the nation’s backup health-care system, a job that gained urgency when a national emergency was declared over the coronavirus pandemic https://t.co/MaG77j9Lrl

Congrats to IU Bloomington alum Bob Chapek ('81), who was just named the new CEO of Disney!

[Ileana Ros-Lehtinen @RosLehtinen]

Yeah, Bernie “truth is truth”, as u say, and the “truth” is that Fidel Castro was, from the 1st day he illegally took power, a ruthless murderer, a sadistic killer who stripped Cubans of all freedoms.

Literacy programs were indoctrination.

I lived it as a child.

All lies.

[Amado Alex Albelo @albelo]

@echocharles @jockowillink Good time to get Felix Rodriguez on the podcast. Best known for finding Che Guevarra, but just a page from a lifetime of fighting the communists in Cuba, Viet Nam, Central and South America as a member of the CIA and US Army. https://t.co/dAOQiFIUOU
