57. Dual Tasking to Keep Your Brain (and Body) Fit as You Age | Ryan Glatt, MS, CPT, NBC-HWC

Ryan Glatt is a certified personal trainer, a national board-certified health and wellness coach, and director of FItBrain at PNI. He’s also a big believer in the idea that just getting on a treadmill isn’t enough to keep our brains and bodies in top condition as we age. We must “dual task,” Glatt says. That means finding activities that challenge our minds and bodies at the same time, like dance or pickleball. Glatt, whose own energy and enthusiasm is infectious, is a big fan of video games that make you move. He got fit (and came out of his shell) years ago by playing Dance Dance Revolution, which requires both deft movement and undivided attention. Dual tasking is crucial as we age because it can slow dementia. Glatt has pored over the research and is convinced of that. It can also help us retain our balance, thereby preventing falls, one of the biggest causes of injury in older adults. This high-energy conversation with Ryan will show you how important dual tasking is, and we bet it will get you up and moving by the end.
