He emphasizes resistance training as “the best investment you can make” to stay strong and independent later in life.Practical steps include tracking body fat and blood work, prioritizing weekly resistance training, aiming for 6–7 hours of sleep, and being honest about emotional coping mechanisms. “If you want to feel great in your 70s, you can’t be an average 50-year-old,” he reminds listeners.This conversation delivers a clear framework for entrepreneurs who want to protect their long-term performance, energy, and wellbeing without sacrificing their business goals.Key takeawaysTrack body fat, blood work, and weight—don’t rely on how you feel.Fat loss is essential for improving metabolic health and preventing disease.Resistance training preserves muscle, strength, and independence as you age.Sleep 6–7 hours to support memory, fat loss, and long-term brain health.Confront emotional drivers of overwork, overeating, or alcohol use directly.Invest in health now to avoid losing freedom and mobility later.For more details and a free 30-minute Master Class, visit our website and read the article on Ted Ryce.
