We thought we were going to get funded.

Didn't boo-hoo.

But we wanted to do the study that we did, but we wanted to do a younger and older pop with the notion that the retrain and the older pop would probably be impaired because generally speaking, the adaptability response in somebody average age being 55 in our hands is not as good.

When you start talking about

above the age of 80, like some of the Scott Trappy stuff.

You work with Scott.

There seems to be strength adaptation, but debatable as to whether or not you have hypertrophy with resistance training.

Look at single fiber level stuff, right?

Okay.

All right.

All good.

But there is a general anabolic resistance.

People ask, what is the magical age?

So...

recent Stanford paper, I think Michael Snyder's group, and they looked across the gut microbiome, the PMBCs in the blood, the blood markers, and they showed that when you look at all these multiomics, so how genes are expressed in tissue, how the gut microbiome is altered, what happens to these proteins in the blood that are linked to this SASP phenotype, et cetera, et cetera, just the whole body, we're getting this molecular snapshot.

We have two critical ages at which things start to sort of turn on us.

One is the age of bingo 44, this is me.

The other is like at the age of 60.

I think the age of 60 is really that inflection point at which, okay, now we're gonna have a diminished response to training, be it endurance, resistance, whatever, because that is a primary effect of aging, especially at the muscle, I think.

We just have something that triggers, be it three-dimensional changes in the chromatin, be it ribosome function, be it the sensing of nutrients and the proteins that were responsible for that.
