🏆Creating a model like the centenarian decathlon can help combat the vagueness of freedom from disease and disability when it comes to aging.
💪The marginal decade, or the last decade of your life, is crucial for setting goals and focusing on the athletic events and daily activities you want to be able to do.
🚶♂️The centenarian decathlon consists of specific activities, such as walking three miles in one hour or climbing a certain number of stairs, that individuals can choose to do.
🏋️♀️Exercise, especially strength and agility training, has the potential to offset the decline in physical abilities associated with aging more effectively than other factors like sleep, nutrition, or medication.
🌟Health span is not just about being free from disability but about thriving and being able to engage in the activities one wants to at an older age.
