YOUNG ATHLETES VS. MASTER ATHLETES

OPEX Fitness Coaching Director Mike Lee Answers

It should go without saying that there are some gleaming differences between younger and masters athletes.

The elements that separate them?

Biological age, lifestyle, and their day to day activities.

When it comes to training master’s athletes you have to heavily manage the amount of repetitions, intensity more so than younger athletes, simply because masters athletes aren’t as resilient or able to adapt as quickly.
