How can I estimate and extend my lifespan?

It depends on which factors matter most for you. Sleep, exercise, diet, smoking, alcohol, and blood pressure each shift life expectancy differently. A free quiz can estimate your lifespan and biological age in about 5 minutes, then show which habit would add the most years. YapSpan uses published study figures so you can see exactly where each estimate comes from.

What is biological age?

Biological age is an estimate of how old your body acts based on health markers and lifestyle habits, as opposed to your chronological age (years since birth). Someone with healthy habits may have a biological age younger than their birthday age.

VO2 max · VO2 max is the highest rate at which the body can take in and use oxygen during all-out exercise, and one of the strongest known predictors of early death.
Zone 2 training · Zone 2 training is steady aerobic exercise at a moderate intensity just below the point where blood lactate begins to rise.
High-intensity interval training · High-intensity interval training alternates short bouts of vigorous exercise with recovery periods and raises aerobic fitness quickly.
