[@4min-cs565]

This is fascinating. In a week I will be 78 y.o. I sprint several times a week during the summer, warm months although not much during winter time. My goal was to enhance testosterone production and human growth hormone. I understand that exercising super-fast twitch muscles helps in this. That means sprinting. I also eat reasonably well. I don't know anyone with the quality of health that I have even among those a decade or two younger. No medications. Maybe telomeres are part of this. I know that decades of consistent exercise and a healthy diet have apparently paid off.

[@allatamusic]

I just started sprinting today! At 55, and in decent shape already, have been more of a short distance runner, but have decided to focus on sprinting after running across Dr. Sean O'Mara's channel. Also, am taking more B vitamins across the board (as opposed to NMN) and feeling excellent results. I plan to be fit and healthy for a very long time! Great video, another level of information I hadn't seen yet.

Hey Cody, as a masters athlete myself (im 36, so only scratching the surface) i found this very interesting. I've noticed alot of my fellow athletes take their training very serious and perform likewise. As a senior i always thought when I became a master, Ieveryone takes things more slowly. Boy was i wrong! This has motivated me to keep performing and training well, and im actually to the point where I could challenge my 8 year old PR in the 100.

[@atikameg73]

You raise a very important question. When a distance runner says "sprinting", they are not speaking the same language as the 60m to 200m sprinters. Distance runners tend to be training their lactic energy system while sprinters are training their anaerobic alactic system.

I would love to see a video of you revising the concept of sprinting to slow down aging. Sadly, the hype around David Sinclair and NMN and Resvatrol was pretty much debunked by now. I believed him too, but it turned out to be basically a scam. But I am sure there are many benefits of sprinting, e.g. greater bone density in comparison to a long distance runners.

I have osteoporosis and I want to start sprinting. Is this safe?

[@ladyjatheist2763]

I haven't been able to sprint let alone barely walk for almost 5 years due to insane peripheral neuropathy from t2d. On Feb 13 of 24 I started sprinting again. just 4 20 second sprints at 5.5 mph. Before the neuropathy hit I was able to sprint at a solid 12 mph. Since starting again, my balance and proprioception has improved markedly. My endurance has improved markedly, and most importantly, my neuropathy is retreating even better than it was before. It's going to take some work to get back to close to where I was, I may only be able to get back up to 10 mph, but if I cana get back to doing 10 to 15 sprints in a workout, I will be happier and healthier than I've been for at least a decade. I'll take it! Keep sprinting! oh yeah... btw, on dec 30 last year I started doing 100 squats a day. I attribute my regained sprinting ability to those! I still do them every day!

Too much vitamin B6 causes intense tingling prickling neuropathy, it can store in your body 30 days longer than all the other B vitamins except b12 can be stored the longest but stop all vitamin B6 for at least three months to get rid of neuropathy, happened to me and tons of videos on it

Vitamin B6 toxicity can cause peripheral neuropathy, which can lead to a reduction in the density of myelinated fibers in the sural nerve: Symptoms The most common symptom of vitamin B6 toxicity is peripheral sensory neuropathy, which can cause numbness, pins-and-needles, or burning sensations in the limbs.

Aside from the topic of sprinting (which is very interesting), the video shows a person in the gym performing very few reps at high intensity - is that a recommended practice? I've been experimenting with this, 2 sets only per exercise, 1st set light and higher reps, 2nd set heavy and maybe 5 reps or close to failure; full body workouts combined with sprinting on the treadmill with some inline. So far, I like the feeling I get.

[@MarkoAssi_pokervlogger]

Could it be that the fastest sprinters are actually faster because of longer telomeres and not the other way around?

[@lordsneed9418]

cold be that the genes which benefit sprinting also benefit longer telomere length. They should test the sprinters AND their siblings in order to check whether the siblings who aren't sprinters have just as long telomeres, average telomere length or in between. if the siblings have telomeres no different from the control group on average then that's much stronger evidence for the sprinting being what's important.

Hey Cody! I've been copying "Feed the cats" without much thought and my runs didn't exceed 40m (enough to hit top speed). I run 1.06-1.09 in the 30m to 40m zone. Earlier, I'd run about 1.12. So that's a good improvement in max velocity. But after the 30m to 40m zone, in every next 10m zone, my fastest times are 1.14-1.15 and even slower and they continue to deceease. Is it normal? I think the loss is too big. I'm quite short for a sprinter, I'm of the same height as Christian Coleman, but I don't think that it's about my height. What do you think?

[@atikameg73]

This is perfectly normal. Even the best conditioned sprinters on the planet can only maintain their maximum velocity for a little more than one second. After the 70m mark of the 100 race, all of the athletes are losing speed. There are rare exceptions. For example, if a 200m specialist like Andre De Grasse or Noah Lyles have a sub-par first 50m, they may actually hit their top speed later in the race. But usually when that happens, they will have given up too much ground to a competitor who had a better start. You know you are actually training for sprint speed when you start to fatigue in less than 10 seconds. It sounds to me like you are performing a very high quality workout - truly a "sprint" workout!
