Still Heli-Skiing at 88: Frank's Blueprint for Never Slowing Down

What does it take to still be heli-skiing, competing in triathlons, and running beach stairs in your late eighties?In this episode, Dr. Kevin White travels to Malibu to sit down with Frank, an 88-year-old athlete, engineer, and adventurer, and Flavio, Frank's trainer of 35 years. Together, they pull back the curtain on what it actually takes to stay that functional, that active, and that sharp at an age when most people have long stopped trying.They cover Flavio's 90-minute three-component training structure, why flexibility and stability matter more than raw strength, and how Frank survived a helicopter crash and a mountain biking accident that broke his back and neck, and came back from both. Kevin also walks through the nutrition and supplement protocols he uses with his own patients, including creatine for cognitive support, magnesium L-threonate, managing insulin resistance, and why too much fruit in your smoothie may be doing more harm than good.Frank's philosophy is simple: exercise is a means to an end, not the goal itself. The goal is to keep doing the things that make life worth living."Family, friends, take care of yourself. And never quit."If you want a model for what aging well actually looks like in practice, this episode is it.Follow The Daily Apple and leave a review to help more people find the show.www.primehealthassociates.com Instagram: @KevinWhiteMD YouTube: @KevinWhiteMD Prime Health Associates
