    Ever wondered how to maintain peak endurance as you age? Join us on the Master's Athlete Survival Guide, where Scott and I share our personal stories and hard-earned wisdom on navigating the unique endurance challenges faced by master's athletes. We'll discuss the inevitable decline in strength and muscle fibers, focusing on fast twitch fibers, and reveal practical strategies to counteract these changes. Our real-world observations, sprinkled with humor, offer valuable insights on maintaining both cardiovascular and muscular endurance to maximize your healthspan.

    In another segment, we dive into the crucial aspects of recovery and injury prevention. Reflecting on our own experiences, we'll talk about the toll intense workouts can take and the importance of proper recovery techniques. Consistency is key, but so is knowing when to push your limits and when to ease off to avoid burnout. We'll share personal anecdotes about lingering injuries, the significance of choosing the right sports for your capabilities, and how age necessitates adjustments in your training regimen to sustain an active lifestyle.

    Finally, we explore the intricacies of endurance training. From the benefits of zone two cardio and HIIT to the impact of diet on performance, we cover it all. Scott shares his disciplined dietary journey following a diabetes diagnosis, while I discuss my low-carb, high-protein approach. Join us for practical tips on staying consistent, managing stress, and enjoying your cardio routine, all while keeping your energy levels high and your performance optimal.
