Periodic surveillance of aerobic performance and body composition enable age management teams to track and assess intervention efficacy to lengthen the healthspan. The importance of maintaining optimal cardiovascular fitness, muscle mass, and fat mass with age cannot be overstated. This presenta-tion highlights the role of these tests in Precision Medicine by examining patient data compiled into 12 sex-age groups. We conclude by summarizing the recommendations utilized to continually improve test scores. Audience members will learn how to introduce these techniques into their clinical practices, gaining valuable insights that can increase patient longevity and quality of life.
