What happens in preparation for a child to be conceived can shape that child's biology for life.
Intrauterine development matters enormously.
The first two years of life are highly critical for setting the stage for everything that follows.
Chronological age tells you very little about what a body is actually capable of.
My mother is a good example of this.
She does CrossFit.
She deadlifts 165 pounds.
She back squats 130 pounds.
She is five feet tall and about 110 pounds.
You just don't see that very often.
How well a body ages has a lot to do with what happened long before it showed up in a lab result.
We run a preconception through pregnancy program because most people are unaware of how much these early windows matter.
What's one thing you wish you had known earlier about how the body ages?
