  "account": "Retired Navy SEAL and author Jocko Willink has shared two simple changes he made to improve his longevity. As a child, adult, or senior, Willink believes the path to success and long-term health begins with basic habits like discipline. After maintaining virtually the same routine for decades, Willink added two tweaks to his workout and supplement habits. First, he increased his daily dose of creatine, a fitness supplement proven to boost strength and muscle gains, and potentially support brain health. Willink now takes 20 grams daily, up from the typical 5 grams. Second, he started warming up more before his gym sessions to prevent injury and ensure optimal performance. Willink believes the basics, when executed well, are the key to longevity, echoing the adage that \"50 is the new 40.\"",
