84. Emma Hebborn. Strength coaching older athletes.

  • Summary

  • Runners and cyclists know that, as we age, we should do more strength training to protect our bones, ligaments and balance. But what sort of training is best, and how to do it safely? Those questions led me to Emma at Wolfhouse Gym near Fort William in the Scottish highlands. As well as having a British record and world championship win, Emma has developed a specialism in coaching over 50s who want to handle the inevitable changes of ageing. There's a video version of this podcast and a shorter video in the Older Athlete Series which includes Emma's demonstrations of many of the things we talk about here.
