Bonus Episode: The Limitless Human: 80-Year-Old Ironman, Golf’s Eligibility Crisis, and The Epigenetic Power of Dads

This bonus episode explores three seemingly unrelated stories that all challenge perceived human limits: an 80-year-old Ironman champion demonstrating the power of strength training for healthspan, a golf controversy questioning the modern meaning of amateurism, and a groundbreaking study showing how a father's endurance training can epigenetically benefit his offspring's metabolic health.
