Now that we have a kid that's on their way to college, I'm being served all this information about how parents literally have not taught their kids how to do a load of laundry and are doing it for the first time with their kid on the eve of them going off to college or that they don't know how to make a pot of rice or cook literally anything.

Let me borrow a couple analogies from one of my favorite people, Katie Bowman. And first thing is, she will point out, and it's not a perfect analogy, so bear with us, is this notion of mechanotransduction, which means that at a cellular level, your tissues, some of your tissues specifically, need mechanical input to express themselves. Want a strong tendon? How do you get a strong tendon?

You have to load it, right? Does it do tendon things? Is it lengthening under load? Does it express shortening under load? Is it isometric holds? So we can start at that level. She points out that if you put a, and again, not a perfect analogy, but if you put an orca into captivity, over a while, that orca fin will start to fold over. Folded fin syndrome, it's nicer than floppy fin syndrome.

That's hurtful. And what you're doing is when you alter the environment that this amazing animal lives in, it's not swimming, it's not fighting, it's not hunting, you're not loading the base of that fin. And so what happens is that collagen breaks down and we start to see changes in that, in that expression of that.
