What if I told you Jeff Bezos didn't lift heavy weights to get jacked at 60?

He used something called "Low Impact Training."

The same method that Tom Cruise and Gerard Butler rely on for their movie roles.

Here is Wesley Okerson’s genius training protocol: Image
Image
Okerson’s low-impact training is built for:
• Strength
• Mobility
• Longevity
• Recovery

His system is engineered for sustainable longevity.

It works for billionaires, action stars, and anyone aging. Image
Image
The core idea:

Train hard on the muscles, easy on the joints.

Instead of deadlifts → trap bar carries
Instead of sprints → sled pushes
Instead of kipping pull-ups → controlled TRX rows
Instead of high-impact HIIT → zone 2 incline walks

Results without damage.
Low impact doesn’t mean low intensity.

It means:
• Controlled tempo
• Joint-safe angles
• Eccentric-focused strength
• Full-body movement patterns
• Minimal inflammation

It’s designed to train daily without breakdown.

As we age:

• Recovery slows (due to lower testosterone + growth hormone)
• Inflammation increases (IL-6, CRP rise)
• Tendons and fascia become less elastic
• Sleep quality declines

High-impact workouts compound this decay.
Low impact reverses it. Image
Bezos trains 5–6 days/week:

• 3 strength sessions (sleds, cable work, tempo reps)
• 2 cardio sessions (rucking, incline treadmill, rower)
• 1 mobility/recovery day

Every session is guided by sleep + recovery data
Muscle damage—and growth—occurs most in the eccentric phase (lengthening).

Okerson’s method focuses on:
• Slow tempo reps (3–4 second negatives)
• Controlled breathing
• High time-under-tension

This builds strength without cortisol spikes.

Bezos doesn’t run. He:
• Rucks (hikes with weight)
• Walks on an incline
• Bike zone 2
• Rows with control
• Pushes sleds

Cardio is built around joint protection and metabolic function. Image
Every workout includes mobility:

• Controlled articular rotations (CARs)
• Resistance band flows
• Thoracic openers
• Hip and ankle work
• End-range strength
Wesley prioritizes recovery and sleep above everything.

Because:
• 70% of growth hormone is released in deep sleep
• Testosterone is replenished during REM
• Memory consolidation + muscle repair happen during NREM

No sleep = no adaptation.
Bezos uses wearables (like WHOOP or Oura) to monitor:
• Sleep quality
• HRV
• Strain vs. recovery

“You don’t get stronger in the gym. You get stronger when you sleep well after the gym.”

Training without sleep is like driving without gas. Image
Jeff Bezos is well-known for prioritizing sleep as part of his productivity and decision-making strategy.

Magnesium glycinate supports:
• Deeper sleep
• GABA production (calms the brain)
• Blood sugar stability
• Muscle relaxation

80% of people are deficient in magnesium.

Low-impact training works because it’s built on biology.

• Protects joints
• Enhances strength
• Optimizes cardio
• Honors recovery
• Tracks adaptation
• Starts with sleep
• Ends with results

Longevity isn’t luck.

Your body ''dies'' without Nitric Oxide.

It’s the molecule that heals “untreatable” wounds, restores brain function, & controls erections.

By 30, you’ve lost nearly 40% of it (& it won’t come back on its own)

Here’s what it does & how to restore it naturally: 🧵
First, know what Nitric Oxide really is.

It’s a natural molecule your body makes to relax blood vessels, boost blood flow, and push more oxygen where it’s needed.

It’s made in your arteries and muscles — without it, your heart, brain, and energy suffer:
By age 40, you’ve lost 50% of your nitric oxide.
By 70? As much as 75% gone.

That loss triggers:
• Alzheimer’s
• Erectile dysfunction
• Diabetes
• Hypertension
• Exercise intolerance

The longer you ignore it, the faster you age:

🚨 Bill Gates just shattered the myth of "AI-proof" careers!

Doctors and teachers are next.

With 86,000 medical jobs at risk by 2036, Gates predicts "humans won't be needed for most things."

But he did identify 3 surprising exceptions: ⤵️

[A Thread 🧵] Image
Let's analyze what Gates is actually saying.

He's not theorizing about distant possibilities - he's highlighting transformations already underway in professions once considered automation-proof.

The market signals are clear. But what they reveal about our future will shock you:
The medical field is already shifting.

AI systems now outperform doctors on exams, interpret scans more accurately, and diagnose conditions faster than experienced physicians.

Healthcare shortages won't be fixed with more med schools, but with AI.

This pattern appears in biotech, too:
