Dual dominance, or balanced use of both sides of your body, is a third pillar of longevity alongside nutrition and exercise. Baseball and other unilateral sports break this balance by favoring one side, while walking, swimming, and cycling maintain it.
Why do you, why do you define dual dominance, um, as, uh, as a third pillar of longevity, like physical exercise and nutrition? I mean, how do you, how do we define it?
First of all, dual dominance, physical biology, nutrition, and exercise, the two pillars. I call MMD that third pillar, dual dominance, that third pillar, uh, and it's something that body science understands when body science recognizes all the activities associated with longevity happen to also be dual dominant. They happen to be MMD, mirror movement development. So because you're using both sides of the body equally, so walking, running, hiking, cycling, swimming, yoga, and all the machines that you use at the gym, they're all designed to work out the body equally. Lose that though when, for example, no offense to baseball fans, but baseball is one of the worst examples of this where majority of the batters only bat one side Everybody has a glove that's designed for just one hand. So, you're throwing with only one hand. You're running the bases only in one directionality. So, you'll lose that.
