Angela is joined by Siim Land, the author of "The Longevity Leap," to discuss the intricacies of aging and the various factors that influence longevity.

Together, they look into the biological mechanisms behind aging, including mitochondrial dysfunction and chronic inflammation, while also exploring the concept of peak physical performance across different life stages. Siim also discusses the importance of exercise, particularly cardiovascular training and strength training, in enhancing VO2 max and overall health.

"The average person doesn't usually lift weights after their 20s... A lot of it is also just because of being sedentary and not actually lifting anything." 

"If you want to improve your overall cardiorespiratory fitness, then you need to address all of the heart rate zones as well to increase your fitness." 

"Chronic inflammation is pretty central to aging and all the whole chronic diseases as well." 

"I think there's no evidence that multi-day fasting has benefits or that it would be providing any unique benefits that you wouldn't get from just a regular healthy diet."
