We all love to nerd out on the advances in the science of exercise but here's a practice that never required wearable technology: Early human movement. Like, leaping from a predator. Or, crouching as a hunter. Here is a bonus thought: By using our bodies the way they were originally intended - for mobility, balance and play – it could be a lot easier to, say, jump out of an airplane in your 80s.

His body injured after a decade in Canadian pro-football, Andre and his yoga-practising gymnast wife Catalina talk mobility benefits at every life age. Meanwhile 10,000 feet above ground, Mary and Lina conquered those mobility issues by jumping out of an airplane, to teach their grandkids a thing or two about growing old.

GUESTS: Former CFL star Andre Talbot and Catalina Moraga, the husband-and-wife owners of Spirit Loft Movement Centre in Toronto. And 80-something BFFs Mary Kelcey and Lina Zatzman, who enjoy a high-altitude adrenaline hit.

Where and how are we all going to live in our later years? It is the question of our times.

In our later years, some will live mortgage free. Others will need housemates to financially survive. For many, the shining holy grail of housing is both affordable and offers health supports in case life goes sideways. We look at two options that work: the Golden Girls co-ownership and cluster care, with Toronto's largest non-municipal provider of affordable housing where the workers, Susan Vickberg says, feel like mothers who have her back.

GUESTS: Louise Bardswich, the original Golden Girl of Port Perry and Susan Vickberg, who lives in an affordable cluster care household at Woodgreen Community Services.

We're living longer than ever, but that doesn't always mean we're living better longer. The Toronto Star held a live virtual event, led by award-winning journalist and host of this podcast, Moira Welsh and special guests Dr. Samir Sinha (Geriatrician and Clinical Scientist, Sinai Health and University Health Network) and Laura Tamblyn Watts (CEO of Can Age). They discuss how the habits you commit to now can shape the quality of your health years down the road.

Good health in later life isn't guaranteed — but the choices you make today can make those years stronger, more independent and more meaningful. Learn the simple daily changes that add not just years to your life, but better years.
