Shownotes

Today we discuss which sports are linked to longer or shorter lifespans in elite athletes. We’ll look at how these trends differ between males and females, why some sports might extend life while others don’t, what the data says about the best sport type for those pushing their limits and wanting to age well, and finally how all this ties into what we know about aging.
