The emphasis on exercise as the most potent longevity drug is incredibly compelling. The breakdown of Zone 2 training versus VO2 max work provides actionable clarity. What strikes me most is how the shift from Medicine 2.0 to 3.0 reframes our relationship with health from reactive to proactive, making prevention accesible and personel rather than abstract.
That’s precisely the key thesis of the book (in my opinion): we should stop thinking of health and longevity as what doctors and treatments can do for us, and instead focus on the compounding effects we can have from right now.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and glad you liked the post!
Very interesting. You made me want to read this book! Before reading this, I would have said sleep is more important than exercise... Also, loved the definition of young vs old based in your dreams and aspirations!
I’ve heard some other opinions that sleep is more important, so you might be right! But here’s the catch: after a good workout, who doesn’t have a nice sleep?
I’ve even read that the improvement in sleep that you get from exercising might be one of the key factors that explains why exercise is so beneficial

Cuando entendemos que apuntar hacia la longevidad mejora nuestra vida hoy se vuelve mucho más atractivo.
Gran trabajo de síntesis en un tema interesante. Bravo!
Muchas gracias!!

That makes sense! If exercise gets both the benefit of exercising and sleeping better, it makes sense that it can be considered the best option 🏋🏾♂️
