| Welcome to your Friday edition of The Exercise Doc! | Good morning and happy Friday! | I'm so glad you're here. Truly. Every time you open this newsletter, you're not just reading articles — you're part of a growing health-minded family. And I don't take that lightly. So thank you for being here, for reading, and for caring about your health. | Today's lineup is a good one. | We're talking about exercise and knee arthritis — because nearly one in five adults over 45 deals with knee osteoarthritis. If your knees sometimes sound like a bowl of Rice Krispies (snap, crackle, pop), this one's for you. The good news? Movement is usually medicine. The right kind of exercise can actually help your knees feel better, not worse. | We're also diving into the Okinawa 80% rule — a simple habit from one of the longest-living populations in the world. No calorie counting. No complicated food charts. Just a powerful mindset shift that may help you age better and feel better. It's simple… but not always easy when dessert is involved. | And of course, I've included my usual tid bits — short, practical pieces you can use right away. Little nuggets of health wisdom without the fluff. | As always, my goal is to give you clear, useful information you can apply in real life — whether that means moving with less pain, eating a little smarter, or just thinking about your habits in a new way. | Thank you for being part of this community. Thank you for reading, sharing, and supporting what I do. It truly means a lot. | And one more thing… | Keep an eye on your inbox later today. I have a special announcement coming your way. I'm excited about it — and I think you will be too. | Have a healthy, strong, and maybe 80%-full kind of Friday. | Warmly, | Doc Mike |
