@BornFitnessWhat can add 10 years to your life, is a better reflection of happiness than wealth, and is associated with less stress and fewer heart attacks and cancers?
Social connection.
The interesting part? The number of relationships doesn't matter. It's the depth that counts.

@BornFitnessIs your brain vulnerable to disease?
Taking care of your body can also help protect your mind.
According to Australian researchers, resistance training could help protect against Alzheimer’s and cognitive decline.
All it took was 90 minutes per week to see the benefits.

@BornFitnessEveryone is freaking out about the erythritol study.
It claims the popular sweetener causes cardiovascular issues like heart attack and stroke.
It's time to stop panicking. Here's why:

@BornFitnessEveryone talks about diet, exercise, and sleep.
But a 4th component of health could add up to 10 years to your life.
According to the National Institute of Aging, social isolation & loneliness has the same impact on mortality as smoking.
Remember: reach out to your friends.

@BornFitnessThe last 8 days were an eye-opening experience. During that time:
*I had no caffeine
*Did 24-hour fasts
*Shivered 4-6 times/day
*Was socially isolated
Do I feel optimized? Hell no. I had pneumonia, the flu, and a 104-degree fever.
I hope to never repeat that again.

@BornFitnessA little bit of exercise can be a life-changing decision.
Researchers tracked 25,000 people who did just 1-2 minutes of high-intensity exercise a few times per day.
The small commitment reduced all-cause mortality by up to 40% and a 49% reduction in cardiovascular disease.

@BornFitnessWill you live a long life?
Test your grip strength.
A study of 140,000 people found that grip strength might be a better predictor of early death than blood pressure.
Those with a stronger grip show less DNA damage, better epigenetic age, and less likelihood of disease.

Habits —>results
Results —>motivation
Motivation —> bigger changes
Bigger changes —> confidence
Confidence —> control
Control —> less stress, more happiness

@BornFitness"We all have the same 24 hours in the day."
While meant to inspire, this message lacks empathy.
Do you have children? Are you a single parent? Do you work multiple jobs? Are you caring for the sick or elderly?
We all have 24 hours, but we all don't get to use them the same.

@BornFitnessYou might feel like you can sleep less, but your body keeps score.
Research suggests your body burns less fat when you don't sleep enough.
In the study, people followed the same diet, but those sleeping 5 hours/night (vs. 7.5 hours) experienced a 55% reduction in fat loss.

@BornFitnessThe paradox of healthy living:
Fast results come from unsustainable behaviors that tend to depreciate with time (to the point it costs you).
The best results move slower but the behaviors are sustainable, and the benefits compound dramatically over time.
Patience > speed

@BornFitnessThe most underrated aspect of self-improvement? Your self-talk.
Goals offer motivation.
Habits provide a roadmap.
Self-talk determines the outcomes.
Better self-talk starts with more self-awareness.
Identify your inner voice, make it more positive, and results will follow.

@BornFitnessBefore you remove all sugar from your diet, remember this: fruit defies the belief that all sugar is bad.
More than 30 years of research suggest that fruit:
*Supports weight loss
*Has anti-obesity nutrients
*Increases fullness & reduces caloric consumption
*Lowers cholesterol

@BornFitnessIf you want research findings to apply to your life, remember:
Mechanisms show what's possible.
Human trials suggest what's likely to happen.
Personal experience shows what works for you.
Each is valuable, but combining all three maximizes the likelihood of a desired outcome.
