One Number That Predicts Your Future with Professor Scott Fulton

Professor Scott Fulton is a research engineer turned functional health span expert, author of the #1 bestselling book Function, and chair of the National Aging and Place Council in the US. After a career troubleshooting complex systems across industries, Scott turned his engineering mind to the one system nobody was looking at properly: the aging human body. His work draws on over 700,000 participants and 10 million person-years of data to answer a question most men don't think to ask until it's too late: what will actually determine how well you function in the second half of your life?This conversation is for every man over 40 who thinks being fit means being healthy. It's also for the man who's never tested his balance, flexibility, or reaction time, and doesn't yet know that one of those is quietly becoming his weak link.Book mentioned: Function by Scott Fulton — available now, currently #1 bestsellerConnect with Scott Fulton: scottfulton.ca00:30 — Why You Should Listen04:28 — Why Runners Can't Walk: The Biomechanics Explained09:34 — The Statistic That Will Change How You Walk Today13:10 — Falls Aren't a Strength Problem — They're a Reaction Time Problem16:39 — The 5 Domains of Functional Health Span21:42 — If You Don't Demand It, You'll Lose It26:12 — The Top 4 Self-Assessments to Do This Week35:28 — Why Disease Is Not Your Biggest Threat — Function Is (2:1)40:04 — Why Men Lose Their Social Network the Day They Retire48:18 — What Your 80-Year-Old Self Is Asking of You Right Now Hosted on Acast.
