Inspired by presidential ultimatums, this show deals with the way we are remaking our bodies – in a sense, a medical/technical human evolution. From the misadventures of extreme bodybuilding to re-innervation of paralyzed limbs to genetic manipulation to cyborgs, we humans are changing in ways unimaginable to previous generations. Our speculation and confusion is brought to you by four simple midlife changes to improve your late life health.

Tip: A group exercise program may be just the thing you need to start your own individual exercise.
