85. Sally Walker. Testosterone Replacement for Older Athletes.

After careers in the English and Danish health systems, Sally Walker works as a consultant on hormones and nutrition based on the island of Lanzarote.  She also gives talks at the sports resort Club la Santa where we stayed in December 2024.  As you’ll hear, she’s an advocate of older men using testosterone replacement therapy, particularly those who try to stay fit.  Personally, I’m much more cautious about the whole subject, but I did get my testosterone tested.  After listening to her talk on the subject we sat down and recorded this conversation which is available as a YouTube video and audio podcast at Always Another Adventure.  Video podcast https://youtu.be/OM5GIwvhtPASally Walker's linksYouTube  ▶︎ @sallywalker7505Website ▶︎ https://sally-walker.com/enInstagram  ▶︎ https://www.instagram.com/sally.walker_hormone.expert/Facebook  ▶︎ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063548799899

84. Emma Hebborn. Strength coaching older athletes.

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.Strength for older athletes: Video: https://youtu.be/tkQgbtrxEb8Video podcast: https://youtu.be/Ojli8D5WhPIWolfhouse gym: https://www.wolfhousegym.com/
