Optimizing Longevity and Performance with Dan Kachtik

Living well as we age isn't about running marathons at 70, unless that's what you want to do. It's also about being able to live life being able to do the basics with strength and ease.

In this episode I welcome my guest, Dan Kachtik, a CrossFit gym owner in San Antonio. We discuss the importance of fitness and longevity for all ages, emphasizing the shift to community-focused gyms that promote support and relationships. Dan shares his journey from corporate gyms to opening his own, advocating for accessibility in fitness. He shares his tips for what to look for when considering a gym to join

We address common fears about CrossFit, highlight the need for functional movement, and discuss the benefits of physical activity for those aged 55 and older. This episode really emphasizes the psychological advantages of regular exercise and encourages listeners to commit to a supportive fitness community. Ultimately, our discussion promotes fitness as a lifestyle choice that enhances overall vitality and quality of life.

About the Podcast

The Ultimate Journey of Self-Care
What does Self Care look like to you?
It's not a spa day, a massage or a workout. It's not a day off from work, or a bubble bath.
It's so much more than the things we do, it's HOW we prioritize ourselves in general.
Join me every Tuesday and Thursday for two different editions of the Ultimate Journey of Self Care.
Tuesday's show is a deeper dive into what self care can look like for you with conversations about fitness, mindset, energy eating and fuel for your body, spirituality, travel and leisure and more.
On Thursdays we'll take a closer look at self care for your business, on the Business Edition, as an entrepreneur, with short bite sized episodes about growing and innovating in your business in a post pandemic world.
Join me and we'll take a walk on the journey of self care together. Subscribe and Follow us so you don't miss an episode.
