I thought this would be an interesting title for today’s discussion. A unique perspective, perhaps, but there is indeed LIFE in the fast lane. If you’re like me, you’re thinking about The Eagles’ 1976 mega-hit Life in the Fast Lane. But our exploration has nothing to do with the drug and party scene. We’re actually talking about speed. Training for…

Or…to add to the title, today’s topic is not only to look younger than the number on your driver’s license — but to feel and perform that way as well. Our goal is (or should be) to make our physiological age a lower number than our chronological age. It all comes down to one key point. Youthful vitality is exemplified…
Physiologic age versus chronologic age…what a concept! The thought that you could look, feel, and perform younger than what’s on your driver’s license is powerful. And it’s true.
