How To Train As You Get Older

Everyone would love to believe new research technology will lead to the next big jump in human life expectancy and put a stop to the aging process. From a mechanistic point of view, the cause of the aging phenomenon is not well understood. Aging is a complex and multifaceted process, which occurs as a result of a cascade of mechanisms, all happening in parallel.

There are many micro-biologist’s who believe the potential of the mapped human genome still hasn’t been tapped, and that this accomplishment will lead to the next jump in the human lifespan. I also agree that the mapped human genome has not been tapped and will lead to huge improvements in medicine, but it is not going to stop us from aging.

WHY DO WE AGE?

Anti-Aging is one of the most popular topics in medicine. Society has always been uncomfortable with the aging process. There is a reason the holy grail has been historically sought after. Anti-aging has become a huge industry. Products such as vitamins, supplements, special exercises, surgeries, and other alternatives are heavily marketed with claims to preserve youth and delay the process of growing old.

The desire to remain young is a natural phenomenon. The instinct to preserve life and delay inevitable death is integral to the survival of any species. This article is going to explain why we age and what can be done about it.

The cause of the aging process is a complete mystery to modern science. Why does the body do this? What is the mechanism causing us to grow older and eventually die? While these questions are still largely unanswered, here is what we do know about aging; along with the most researched causes for it.
