We already know fitness is good for us. What many of us don’t know is that a specific type of workout can actually slow down the aging process. In fact, you might be surprised to learn what is still physically possible as we age. 

 

Today I’m speaking with Eric Levitan. Prior to leaving Corporate America, he spent 25 years working in the software industry. Now he’s the founder and CEO of Vivo, the leading online fitness program designed specifically for people over 55. 

 

After learning about the impact of age-related muscle loss, Eric realized that growing older doesn’t have to mean declining health or function. There’s something we can do about it. In this episode, he shares what we can do to regain strength and function at any age. 

 

We discussed:

 

• Why selling his company wasn't everything Eric thought it would be
  
  
• How he embarked on a journey of soul searching to get unstuck
  
  
• The impact of watching his parents’ quality of life change with aging
  
  
• One critical component of maintaining your independence as you age
  
  
• Partnering with scientists to help create a different mentality about fitness
  
  
• The relationship between mind and body when it comes to growing older
