This is the most extreme example of what training sprints, jumps & power will yield you. The ability to contract & relax your muscles rapidly will NOT be developed by bodybuilding or lifting heavy weights slowly. Strength is one piece, but you need to learn how to produce force...

Universities and High Schools have not moved rapidly enough to guide students to have skills for the next decade. THEY HAVE FAILED. It is a massive crisis that can be averted by understanding what AI and Robotics will bring about. Solutions are knowing how to use these tools and new industries that will rise. But this situation is also on ALL OF US. No “job” is safe from founder to entry level in most industries. You and I, by what we do, will be “replaced” ultimately. What to do? AI and Robotics are tools, the next decade is owned by those who know how to use them expertly, but this is also temporary. We have to understand that what we do for “work” will change giving ultimately a greater value to those that are: Creative Flexible Always learning Willing to be wrong Love being human Love being alive Know history Covet wisdom Knowing all tech has downsides Building strong family and friends Realize many institutions have failed The first four are required for you to be able to live through this period with your sanity intact. The rest will allow you to thrive. There are no true careers at this point anymore. There are advocation and vocations which will either earn you money or give life meaning. We will learn that we are not “what we do”, just like we knew for 99% of human existence. Let that sink in. — You and I are far, far ahead of knowing this and we can do two things: 1) Laugh at the “clueless” 2) Help people understand with grace Go to Reddit if you are 1, in fact don’t follow me because you will not like this next decade and what I post. You are 2 and thank you. Even if you and I have not solved this issue, we can help people understand what is ahead and with determination and creativity bound together to solve it locally. Or human family has done this millions of times. The evidence is: you are here. The Neo Luddite movement has not even begun and it will potentially rip apart society even more than all the fashionable moment in the recent past has. These Luddites will have a good point with the wrong answers cooked up by dying academics that cling to labels, “virtues” and victim hood. It will be readymade for some governments to enter in as “big daddy” to “help us”. You will not like what they do, but you will only know when it is too late. It will include YOU “volunteering” to “leave” by 60, to “help out” CanadaPod style. “Brian, I’m 24 what do I do?”. I hope to do much more here to help. But I do know this: 1) Learn a trade or vocation because it’s valuable. It may also be free to low cost if you do it right. 2) Learn everything you can about USING AI and TRAINING YOUR AI. Your expertise will be in the top 1% for a decade. But not forever. 3) Understand Bitcoin and how it will rise while other things sink. This is a short list for now. We will know more moving forward. When you see videos like this posted below, know one thing: Many of these folks had no real family of mental and physical support. Maybe no parent or one parent. Maybe only a broke system to prepare them for—nothing. This was not their doing. Now it is not your “job” to help them, it is your survival to help them if that is what you need. See some day after the dust settles these 20 year olds will be 40 year olds and running YOUR world. And at some point you may need them more than you think you do. You will need them, as they need you now. THIS IS WHAT PAST WISDOM KNEW. The elders of the past never found the need to piss on the youth and hope for the best. THE YOUTH ARE OUR BEST, let us all find ways to change it, even if every aspect of “the system” wants us to berate them into the ground.

Maintaining muscle mass, strength, and function as we age becomes critical to our independence and quality of life. Three terms often come up in this discussion: sarcopenia, dynapenia, and powerpenia. Understanding these concepts and their implications can reshape how we think about aging and exercise. Sarcopenia is the age-related loss of muscle mass and function. It is defined by smaller muscles and a diminished ability to perform physical tasks. Sarcopenia is linked to frailty, mobility issues, and an increased risk of falls. However, muscle mass alone is not the most reliable indicator of functional ability. Dynapenia focuses on the loss of muscle strength, independent of muscle size. Strength is essential for tasks like lifting objects or climbing stairs. While strength is a critical component of function, it doesn’t account for the speed or explosiveness required in many real-world activities. Powerpenia is the age-related decline in muscle power, which is strength applied with speed. Power is often overlooked, yet it’s crucial for activities like rising from a chair, catching yourself from a fall, or navigating uneven terrain. Power combines strength with speed, making it the most functionally relevant metric for daily life and mobility. A recent article in Frontiers in Physiology (PMID: 10961295) highlights the critical role of muscle power in preserving functional independence. Research shows that power is more predictive of mobility, balance, and fall prevention than strength or muscle size alone. This finding shifts the focus from simply building muscle to enhancing the quality and speed of movement. Training to improve power—such as explosive movements, plyometric exercises, or lifting lighter weights quickly—can profoundly affect aging populations. The ability to generate force rapidly can mean the difference between a fall and staying upright or between dependence and independence. Sarcopenia, dynapenia, and powerpenia represent interconnected challenges of aging. However, prioritizing muscle power offers a unique opportunity to address the most functionally relevant decline. While maintaining muscle mass and strength is important, integrating power-focused training into your routine may yield the greatest benefits for preserving mobility and preventing disability.
