Training into your later years

By Peter Fabian
Thursday, May 20th, 2010

61 year old woman breaking world records in Olympic Lifts

You have to read some of these real amazing people’s web sites–like Dave and Laree Draper

Check out their page on this amazing woman (and amazing trainer–Glenn Pendlay) who just started learning Olympic lifts at 55 yo

Working towards being healthy, without injury and having a proper perspective of training goes a long way, it seems

(Maybe there is a place for yoga and it’s sister science Ayurveda.)

    Good Stuff Peter! Now for the first time in my life, I can easily do 50 push ups, 100 leg lifts and run 2 miles at different speed intervals,

    Thanks coach.

      Wow Wally–impressive level of exercise–keep up your training, you have accomplish significant goals–If your future goals involves more lean body mass–consider working into more resistance exercises, besides body weight training. (EG Deadlift 1.25-1.5 x body wt, Bench your Body wt, Front Squat 1-1.25 x body wt)

      Also are you cycling through different periods of your program, so you don’t overuse any particular function too much. I’m sure your summer fun will give you a nice break from your training as well.
