    Oct 14 2025
    We’ve all seen the ice baths, the saunas, the fancy recovery boots. But do you actually need any of that? This week I sat down with athletic coach Linc Barnes to ask the question: what really makes a difference to our training? And the answers might surprise you. Because while Linc coaches sprinters, marathoners and future AFL players, the truth is… The same foundations that make them stronger, faster, and more resilient are the ones that will keep you moving well AND with no pain as you age. You’ll learn: 4:10 - Why your body doesn’t actually get fitter in the gym 5:20 - Why running won’t make you faster on its own… 8:25 - Is strength training safe for kids? 15:54 - The unexpected difference between everyday people and athletes in the gym 19:43 - The rule Linc uses to keep athletes free from injury 21:07 - Why bone stress injuries are so common in Australia right now 33:59 - The warning signs you’re pushing too hard in your training 37:22 - Which recovery tools are worth it … and SO much more.
