I was listening to Tim Ferriss' podcast with Peter Attia, who is very much into longevity, and he was talking about several matters that have connections to Pavel's and Dan John's work and kettlebells.
- How intra-abdominal pressure actually can lengthen the spine (or fight compression), which is excellent when lifting (and what Pavel has been about with "breath behind the shield"and bracing).
- Training for late age. How he looked into what he would want to be able to do as a 100 year old, which included getting off the floor (and playing with grand-grand-children), to catching a running toddler and lifting them up (goblet squat), to being able to put your bag in the overhead locker (shoulder stability). Dan has talked about training for middle age and beyond.
- Zone 2 training to grow more mitochondria, a.k.a. alactic, antiglycotic, Q&D, kind of training. Zone 2 isn't anything new, but I suppose it is often done as straight up aerobic training without peaks like 10 KB swings + rest might do.
