There’s no Gyms Here 😮🏋️‍♂️ One thing that’s stood out to me in Ikaria: you barely see traditional weightlifting gyms. That doesn’t mean people are inactive — almost the opposite. Movement is built into daily life. People walk steep hills, garden, carry groceries, work on farms, tend animals, climb stairs, swim, and stay on their feet throughout the day. That kind of low-level, frequent movement adds up over years. I still think strength training is incredibly valuable, especially for maintaining muscle and bone as we age. But being here has been a good reminder that health isn’t just about what happens during one hour in the gym. Sometimes the bigger question is: how much do you move during the other 23 hours?
