5 Uncomfortable Ways To Make Germany Healthy Again

Everyone knows they should eat better, move more, and sleep longer. That advice has been on every magazine cover for 30 years — and Germany is still getting sicker every year. So this episode is not about that. Five non-obvious, uncomfortable things that would actually change Germany's health trajectory if enough people did them. No government programme. No employer subsidy. Just individual decisions. Measure grip strength and VO2 max — not weight. Standing more at work burns the equivalent of two marathon runs per month. Daily alcohol suppresses everything your training is trying to build. Power and balance decline faster than muscle size after 40 — and that is what determines whether you stay independent at 70. And the lunch table you sit at every day shapes your health more than your running shoes. Five things. All of them within reach this week. Never Start Over Again is your weekly Monday reset — hosted by Rickard Long.
