Inside This Brief Trailer You Will Learn:

Our DNA is located within the nuclei of our cells, where it’s bundled within structures called chromosomes. Every chromosome has specific genes. As the cells in our body naturally divide, our chromosomes need to replicate so that each cell contains a complete set of chromosomes in its nucleus.

At the ends of each of our chromosomes are stretches of DNA called telomeres. Telomeres help protect the ends of our chromosomes from damage or fusing with nearby chromosomes.

You can easily think of telomeres as the little plastic tips (aglets) on our shoelaces. We want to keep those as long and robust as possible. But if you were anything like me as a kid, they fell off pretty quick the more I used my shoes.

In fact, it’s been shown that telomeres are the greatest single predictor of early mortality.

Simply put, the shorter these get the faster we die. So we want to do things that are clinically proven to keep these bad boys as long and robust as possible, for as long as possible.

What do we know that shortens telomere length (1)?

Smoking
Being overweight or obese
Toxins
Over-working
High stress levels
Lack of exercise
Poor diet

And more.

So, it would seem the opposite of these things extends telomere length. But more specifically, certain types of these factors have shown to dramatically improve telomere length.

In particular, high-intensity interval training has shown to be the best form of exercise that extends telomere length when compared to other exercises (2).

According to a new study published in the European Heart Journal, you should add endurance and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to your routine.

We know that our telomeres start to shrink as we age. Also, older individuals with longer telomeres don’t experience vascular aging as rapidly as people with shorter ones. This means their veins are generally in better shape and they’re less at risk for conditions like heart disease and stroke. Something that aerobic activity can improve.

Inside this study, researchers followed 124 people who exercised for 45 minutes, three times a week, for 26 weeks.

The participants were split into four groups:

The aerobic group (continuous running)
The HIIT group (4×4 interval program)
The resistance group (eight machine-based exercises)
And the control group (no exercise at all).

At the end of the 26 weeks, those in the control and resistance groups had no change in telomere length. However, those in the aerobic and HIIT groups saw a “two-fold” increase in length.

This is unheard of. Absolutely unprecedented.

The best way to get these benefits is to do some form of short sprints just a few times per week. It can be short sprints on your stationary bike, running sprints, or even doing your TV-based workout programs like Insanity and P90X.

The most important thing is to just get these in. You don’t have to stop doing your other workouts if you love to do them. Just find a way to get this form of movement in at least 2-3x per week for 20 minutes per day. That’s all!
