On Cosmic Confluence with host Sana, chiropractor and author Dr. Michael Guadagnino, BS, DC breaks down a realistic, science-informed path to staying strong, mobile, and independent after 50. We cover the minimum effective weekly routine, mindset that actually sticks, why walking, strength, yoga, and sunlight still win, smart use of supplements (e.g., CoQ10, creatine), and how plant-forward eating supports heart health and healthy aging. Direct, practical, and built for busy mid-lifers.
About the guest:
Dr. Michael Guadagnino, BS, DC is a chiropractic physician, lifelong mover, black belt, former Recreation Commissioner, and author of Fitness Over 50, 60, 70, and Beyond. He’s spent three decades helping people fight “entropy” with simple routines that reduce pain, build capacity, and keep you off the endless-meds treadmill.
Key takeaways:
-
Start with mindset, win with steps. Define the long game, but work it in short, repeatable actions: today walk; tomorrow tidy up meals; next week add two brief strength sessions.
-
Minimum effective routine. Each week: purposeful walking, 2 strength sessions, daily mobility (micro-stretching works), plus any low-impact cardio (swim, bike, chair yoga) you’ll keep.
-
Fight entropy, not your body. Aging trends toward “disorder”; consistent movement, sleep, and nutrition push back—no heroics required.
-
Journal and reverse-engineer goals. Write goals, track small wins, and use “bad days” as data, not drama.
-
Sunlight and outside time matter. Fresh air and daylight support mood, hormones, and daily activity—“go touch grass” is legit.
-
Nutrition: plant-forward wins. Mediterranean/plant-based patterns support heart and metabolic health while matching diverse cultural preferences.
-
Supplements are tools, not magic. Examples discussed: CoQ10 (mitochondrial energy) and creatine(strength/performance). Use sensibly and personalize with your clinician.
-
Medication isn’t the only lever. Improving fitness, weight, sleep, and diet can positively influence clinical markers; any med changes must be supervised.
-
Consistency beats hacks. Sensible intensity + community + repeatability > quick fixes.r.
