Key Takeaways:

1. Longevity over Performance: For clients over 45, the focus should be on mobility, pain-free movement, and everyday functionality rather than peak performance.
2. Consistency is Key: Staying on track with fitness goals requires ongoing commitment, regular refocusing, and realistic short- and long-term planning.
3. Balancing Elite and Everyday Fitness: While elite athletes train for high performance, regular clients should focus on strength and functionality, with tailored intensity based on their goals and abilities.
4. Training is Personal: Aaron emphasizes that he relates to the struggles of weight, injury, and staying motivated, having been through these phases himself.

One Learning for Listeners:

Fitness is a journey with ups and downs. Stay focused on the long-term goals of moving better and feeling better rather than aiming for constant personal records or perfection.
