Smoking is our next 'S' in our Wellbeing Age assessment. We all now know the dangers and risks associated with smoking and our smoking history is very relevant therefore to our wellbeing.

We measure the total lifetime exposure to smoking through questions on our assessment and this is calculated within your other scores.

Large studies show that exposure to to***co and nicotine-related toxins can have an 8-10year reduction in life expectancy and increase risks of cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease and mortality.

Following on from Quinton’s video about the next ‘S’ in our Wellbeing Age Assessment, SPARK Measures how efficiently the nervous system integrates our sensory information and our motor control response to it. It is not all about balance alone, but NEUROMUSCULAR CO-ORDINATION.

This integration declines with age earlier than strength or walking speed and it is a good marker of ageing and future vulnerability.

Again this is used as part of a picture of how your body is ageing. It’s up to you what you do with the information.

Strength isn't just about how heavy the weights are in the gym, strength is represented by opening jars, carrying shopping or picking up grandchildren.

Strength is one of the clearest indications of FUNCTIONAL AGEING which is why it is the first 'S' in our WELLBEING AGE assessments. Grip strength and single-leg calf strength are among the best-studied, most reliable strength measures available.

We can measure the grip strength by using a DYNAMOMETER and then count how many single-leg calf lifts you can do until your calf fatigues. Your results are then compared to the average scores for someone of your gender and age in the population.

Just a note that we are using this for information to give to you about your body and won't be shared to anyone else. There is no judgement here either!
