Pull ups and powder skiing at 73 - A "silverback" tells us how it's done * Matt Pendola and Michael Stoker
Manage episode 406161705 series 2946118
Who says you can’t get stronger as you get older?
Today, Strength and RunForm Coach Matt Pendola is back and this time he’s accompanied by one of his clients, Michael ’Stoke’ Stoker, one member of a small group who Matt affectionately refers to as 'The Silverbacks’. 73 year old Stoke joins us to speak about how his 20 years of work with Matt has enabled him to continue powder skiing well into his 70’s, and build his strength up to the point where he can now do 7 full pull ups using the gymnastic rings (having been unable to do just 1 when he was 60). Matt walks us through his approach to working with older athletes, and some of the very specific exercises he includes as well as others which he avoids. If you're looking for inspiration both in your strength training and from a 73 years young ‘silverback’ athlete, please pay attention as we also discuss:- Building grip and core strength to improve pull up strength
- Why plyometrics and mobility work are hugely important for older athletes
- Older athletes need better force production
- Let your body tell you how much recovery it needs
- The benefits of kettlebell training for female athletes
- Fitness aging and longevity: It’s all about lifestyle choices
