About this listen
In this episode we examine the physiology of ageing through the lens of Masters Athletics. We unpack the evidence on age-related changes in height, muscle mass, bone density and cardiovascular function, and explore how these influence performance in sprinting, distance running and field events.

More importantly, we look at how structured training in strength, endurance and speed can mitigate decline and extend athletic capacity well beyond what is typically expected. Drawing on current research and real examples, this episode highlights how Masters athletes continue to set benchmarks that challenge traditional views of human performance across the lifespan.
