Understanding Longevity and Health with Linsly Donnelly
In this episode of SuperAge, Linsly Donnelly discusses her personalized approach to longevity and health optimization. Linsly is known for her rigorous self-experimentation in multiple health areas, including mental clarity, physical fitness, and lifestyle design. Rather than following prescriptive routines, she takes a highly adaptable approach that leverages accessible testing to assess what works best for her body and life goals. Her central message is that everyone’s path to longevity is unique, and small, tailored changes can make significant impacts.
Lab You
Linsly talks about the importance of “lab you”—treating yourself as your own experiment to uncover what strategies offer the most benefit. She discusses how methods like grip strength tests, body composition tracking, and brain scans can be valuable tools in measuring progress. This approach doesn’t require fancy equipment or an overwhelming number of lifestyle changes. Instead, it’s about choosing a few impactful levers and tracking how they contribute to your wellness. As she notes, if a method isn’t working or causes unnecessary stress, it’s okay to let it go and focus on what feels sustainable and beneficial.
On Health Span
There is a vital balance between health strategies and joy. Linsly stresses that wellness should fit seamlessly into your lifestyle, enhancing it rather than becoming burdensome. Her insights on using data to shape personal health strategies provide valuable takeaways for anyone interested in longevity, especially women navigating midlife transitions.

- Personalize health strategies to match your lifestyle and values
- Use simple tests to track your progress and make informed decisions
- Focus on a few changes that yield significant results for both physical and mental well-being
