Longevity 101: frameworks for lifespan, healthspan, and the marginal decade
Attia's foundational framework: Medicine 3.0 (proactive, not reactive). The four horsemen of death (CVD, cancer, neurodegeneration, metabolic disease). The 'centenarian decathlon' — training now for the physical tasks you want to perform at 90. Five pillars: exercise, nutrition, sleep, emotional health, drugs/supplements.

Attia: he asks every patient: 'What do you want to be able to do at 90?' Carry groceries, get off the floor, play with grandchildren. Then he works backward to determine the fitness required today — because you'll lose 1-2% per year.

Attia: his Outlive framework has five pillars, and emotional health is the one he resisted longest. After his own therapy (with Paul Conti), he now considers it as important as exercise. Longevity without connection is just a longer period of isolation.
