Dr. Peter Attia emphasizes that among all the habits that promote a longer life, exercise stands out above the rest. When 60 Minutes visited Attia’s state of the art training gym in Austin, @norahodonnell underwent the same physical evaluation his patients do, including a demanding VO2 max test. VO2 max measures how much oxygen your body can use during intense exercise, which is a reflection of your cardiorespiratory fitness. According to Attia, it is one of the strongest predictors of longevity

Dr. Peter Attia says mental and emotional health play a vital role in longevity. “Just like the exercise data, I don't think this is just a correlation. I really think that there is also some causality that flows from the end of having great relationships to living a longer life,” he says. https://cbsn.ws/47paQaF | 60 Minutes

Longevity physician Dr. Peter Attia practices toe yoga to improve balance and strengthen his feet. “Learning to move toes separately was really important,” he says. “Imagine you kept your hands in a glove for most of your life, and you weren't able to move your fingers independently. Think about how difficult it would be for you to get along in the world.” https://cbsn.ws/3XoAOpZ | 60 Minutes
