In this conversation, I discuss why frailty is not an automatic part of aging and how simply moving the body you have—walking on land, in a warm pool, or even around your kitchen table—can change your trajectory. This clip explores what joints and the musculoskeletal system really are, and how bone is far more than a passive skeleton. I talk through how bone releases osteocalcin, signaling your brain, muscles, pancreas, and even testosterone production, and why osteoporosis links to dementia. We also get into “temporal disconnect” and why investing in your mobility today matters for both your future and how you feel right now.
