As the video clip states, change the oil regularly, keep the RPMs up, don't lug it down.
One thing I have started doing is before I change my oil, I'll us a fuel treatment, drive a tank a gas on long drives then change the oil. My understanding, those fuel treatments help to contaminating the oil as they clean.
Checking magnetic plug and filter gives you a glimpse at wear. Dropping the sump also gives you an good view into wear debris. Thing is if you see something awful, it's probably to late to just change out the bearing.
