The Future of Fitness and Health

What is fitness? The first definition of fitness is: “health”. Health is defined as “the general condition of the body or mind with reference to soundness and vigor: good health; poor health.”

So to explore the future of fitness, we need to know how technology will impact our health. According to famed futurist Ray Kurzweil, within this century we will have blood-cell-sized nanobots, swimming through our bloodstreams keeping us healthy by zapping cancer, correcting DNA errors, removing toxins, extending our memories and eating up brownies before they hit our thighs. And we’ll have chips in our bodies that will transmit our personal health data to and from devices and our brain. Read the whole blogpost by Courtney Boyd Myers and related at http://thenextweb.com/

    Founder of TAT (@TATMobileUI), act first think later veggy entrepreneur, Malmö.
    Sees opportunities everywhere and loves seing how to create value from ideas. I love making signal from noise - be it market trends, a technology's use for consumers, or the value of an idea.
    I have a technical background which has always come in handy for in-depth understanding, but dislikes technology for technology's sake.
    Very passionate about startups and entrepreneurship in general.

    Founded Qubulus in June 2010 after a short incubation period within Mobile Heights Business Center in Lund by signing the first deal between a startup and TeliaSonera regarding patents.

    Proud to say that Qubulus has started a revolution in the Indoor positioning market with technology that is easy to deploy and intelligent to interact with that we can only expect even greater things from the Qubulus team the second year than the first.

    Being a new business and technology developer +12 years within high-tech environment has led to numerous of successful achievements within startups, helping companies to expand and become more profitable.

    Holds a masters degree from SLU where he learned how to recognize a shrub. Instantly.
