5 MUST DO Strategies for Former Athletes: Imbalances, Cardio, Mobility, Abs & Mitochondrial Health
5 big questions. 5 clear answers. From weak muscle groups to cardio sequencing, ab training, and mitochondrial health—this Q&A is packed with insight for former athletes who want to train smarter. Watch the full breakdown inside the Former Athlete Society.
If you're a former athlete trying to restart your performance journey, these are the five questions you’ve probably asked yourself this year.
As we move further away from our days of organized competition, our training needs evolve. But the questions stay real—how do I stay strong, healthy, and athletic?
In this video Q&A with the Former Athlete Society, I answer five questions that are coming up again and again from former athletes across the board.
Here’s what I'm covering...
How to bring up weak or lagging muscle groups
We break down the frequency > volume > intensity framework, and how it builds muscle without burning out your nervous system.
Cardio: Before or After Strength Training?
I explain the biological signals (AMPK vs. mTOR) behind this decision and how to structure your workouts based on your primary goal.
Is Kelly Starrett’s Mobility Content Still Valuable?
Absolutely. From Supple Leopard to joint flossing and movement prep—this stuff still delivers, especially as we age.
Why Aren’t My Abs Popping?
We cover movement planes, anti-core training, and the honest truth about body composition’s role in revealing ab definition.
How to Boost Mitochondrial Health for Better Energy
Simple but proven strategies: Zone 2 cardio, cold exposure, nutrient-dense foods, sleep, and intermittent fasting.
If you’re looking to train with intention, improve performance, and feel great doing it—this is your playbook.
