Scientific interest in aging has only just begun
Research notes
•Large body of research into the mechanisms of aging minimally
includes highly trained adult athletes through their careers.
•Most studies based on either moderately active, sedentary or frail
older adults. Woo-hoo, you can get out of a chair!
Most involve cardiovascular training at low intensities rather than high
performance training.
• Anecdotal evidence – you and your clients responses
• Masters athletes’ performance
• Iindividual variables,
• Exercise science principles,
• Science of aging.

Here are a few individual variables
“There’s more variability in mobility, work capacity, medication history,
and other parameters in 100 Masters than in 100 twenty-somethings.

Genetic Factors
Genetics or heritability factors are the foundation
for individual response
• height, body structure,
• overall strength and aerobic capacity
• response to specific nutrients in food.
• Factors influences on how these genes
develop.
A mother’s prenatal physical activity and
nutrition and combined with the infants early
childhood environment are strong influences on
the overall genetics for body shape and training
adaptations. (Greg Nuckols, 2016)
23. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Variability from endurance to strength
• More than 50% of the people in the US have a
higher % of fast twitch fibers. (Bouchard, 1999)
• Improvements in VO2 max ranged from 0-
1000% under the same workout conditions!
(Bouchard,1999)
• Strength and hypertrophy improvements
ranged from 0-54% under the same workout
conditions! (Petrella, 2008; Roth 2007)
24. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Epigenetic Factors
Environmental, lifestyle even pre and
postnatal factors which influence the
expression or activation of specific genes.
• Working out with weights,
• running long distance
• or sprints,
• eating specific foods or drinking cheap
whiskey.
• quality of sleep
• lifestyle stressors all qualify as epigenetic
factors.
• More later…

The magic of HIIT is also variable
• A review of five studies it was found
22% of the participants failed to
improve their oxygen transport.
• 44% didn’t improve a time to
exhaustion test.
• 50% didn’t improve lactate threshold.
(Giles et al, 2015)

Influences of muscle strength – satellite cells
• Satellite cells - stem cells
responsible for the repair and
growth of muscle after workout or
trauma damage
• Exist in variable amounts and
respond differently to strength
training programming
(Roth, 2007 and Petrella, 2008) Via Bret
Contreras
34. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Male and female generalizations
• Females -more slow- twitch fibers than men
• More efficient at utilizing lipids (fats) as fuel in
general.
• More efficient at higher repetitions during
strength training may be more effective.
• More overall volume during workouts
• Anti-catabolic effect of estrogen which reduces
protein breakdown and reduces the overtraining
risk.
• Are better with steady state training than high
intensity interval training
• Should do less explosive training because
glucose (sugar) metabolism fuels these two
modalities.
(Menno Henslemans – Baysian body building)
35. MONTHLY
VARIABILITY
• Strength training, explosive power and plyometric training Days 1-17 (follicular phase)
• Muscle stimulus and recovery more hormonally efficient
• Lower circulating levels of estrogen and progesterone.
• Testosterone (anabolic) levels are inverse to progesterone (catabolic)
• Fluctuating hormones during perimenopause and menopause are another variable
Testosterone increases
day 7-14
Testosterone at
lowest level day 21

50-75% of the variation in exercise and activity levels is genetic
• Chemical receptors in the brain and other heritable factors can
help determine an individual’s activity level.
• “16 human studies conducted as of this writing (circa 2011)
have found a large contribution of heredity to the amount of
voluntary physical activity...the largest study of 37,501 twin
pairs concluded about 50-75%of the variation in the amount of
exercise people undertook was attributable to their genetic
inheritance.”
• The neuroscience of exercise is emerging field.

Challenging workout modalities which stimulate but…
• Limit excessive long-term peripheral and
central fatigue.
• Limit long term recovery needs.
• Limit excessive muscle damage.
Limit walking difficulty

Velocity or Tempo based training
All the cool kids are doing it.
• Autoregulation
• Sets to Velocity/Tempo over
repetitions
• Avoids excessive peripheral and
central fatigue
• High Tech versions in most
professional and elite D-1 collegiate
S&C programming.
• Push-up tempo – some banded.
• Squat tempo – banded with select
individuals

Research Rationale
End of the 1RM gold standard?
Reps in reserve
Huge variability in group and individual responses on any given
day
Group - Range of 7-26 reps @ 70% 1RM – (Cooke-2019)*
Group - Range of 6-14 reps @ 80% 1 RM – (Odgers-2021)*
Individual – 1RM variability on any given day – up to 30%
Research – Velocity groups v 1RM% group increases in back
squat and counter-movement jump equal to or better.
With less volume
*Studies cited from Odgers 2022 NSCA NatCon presentation
46. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
RPE vs Velocity/Tempo vs 1RM%
Velocity/Tempo, RPE and 1RM percentage
RPE vs 1RM% - RPE is equal to or slightly
better than 1RM% (Helms et al 2018)
RPE beats 1RM% in squat strength (Grahm
& Cleather, 2019)
V/T vs RPE – V/T doubles strength increases
of RPE (Shattuck & Tee, 2020)
*Studies cited from Odgers 2022 NSCA NatCon presentation

Higher Velocity (tempo) developed superior athletic gains @ 60% Volume
Two groups – no more than 20% velocity loss or
40% loss.
Maintain a specific velocity during repetitions.
V20 group 60%otal repetitions
Both showed similar/significant improvements
in muscles size, sprint speed, and squat max
over the course of the 16 sessions.
VL20 group significantly higher (fast
twitch/explosive fibers)
VL20 group had superior improvements in the
vertical jump test.

Applications of tempos to high performance aging.
Tempo training – music or metronome 60 to 120
BPM
RPE is important. Does it feel like TTF?
Most upper-body exercises are 120 BPM; lower
60 BPM
Exceptions – pull-ups, kettlebell swings, hip
extension where ROM or momentum is involved
Most caveats apply to younger elite athletes
General V/T requirements less accurate
50. Banded Tempo
bench press
• 120 RPM
• Concentric become .5 sec
p/m
• BP Velocity Training
median.
• Banded to decelerate
smoothly.
• 135 x 7
• Self selected RPE
51. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Repetitions in Reserve (RIR) may be better than training to failure (TTF)
15 studies concluded training to
muscle failure does not seem to
be required for gains in strength
and size.
But it may be detrimental.
More inflammatory catabolic
cytokines and ROS.
Longer recovery times limiting
subsequent workouts.
There may be a periodic need but
with judicious application.
(Neuromuscular preservation?)
52. Eccentric builds
strength but limit it.
• It’s a powerful tool
for strength and
explosive power
development.
• But create the most
muscle damage
during lifts.
• And require a longer
recovery.

Recovery Indices
• HRV
• RHR
• Tap Test
• Vertical jump
• Energy levels
• Baseline checks
54. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Baseline checks?
• Weekly moderately intensive effort. (50-70%)
• Endurance
• 30 min. stair climb, cycle, run/walk, row etc.
• Strength – transition sets
• First set 50% of 10R-Peak (warm-up)
• Second 70% (transition) what’s RPE
• Third and Fourth – 5-10 reps @ 10R-Peak
• Skill-
• Dynamic then agility warm-up
• 1-2 min timed lines or cones for field and court sports.
• “Agility” ladder
• Joint pain – persistent? More than 2?
• Popping, cracking and groaning to distance out of chair ratios

Extrapolated research
indicates strength/power
training is the most
important component of
high performance aging.
56. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
• Extensive research into intensive resistance
training is less than 20 years old.
• Research on young males ages 18-30
• Most research presented is general strength
training info
• Educated age-matched strength training
practitioners are limited. BUT
INCREASING EXPONENTIALLY!
• Most research and programming on frail
population to develop basic ADL strength.
• Most strength programming is secondary to
balance training and cardiovascular training.
• The current cohort of +60 y/o men and +50 women
still have misconceptions about heavy strength
training.
“I don’t want to get bulky.
• We must use research, practice and personal
experience and anecdotal evidence

57. Aerobic interferes with strength, power
and hypertrophy Wilson et al, 2012
• Priority conundrum
• A careful balance is needed in order to
preserve strength and power.
• Addition and careful balance of training
modalities can preserve both.
58. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
EXPLOSIVE AND DYNAMIC MULTIPLANAR MOVEMENTS
• Most sports consist of moving at many
speeds in many directions.
• Maintaining the ability to move
proficiently is a useful metric for healthy
aging.
• Training with explosive plyometric moves
- such as skipping, hurdling, side shuffles,
jumping and medicine ball throws can
improve movement efficiency.
• Develop and maintain motor unit
function,
• Speed ladder drills for warmups and other
dynamic exercises, such as split jumps,
box jumps or single-leg hops, can be
added.
59. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Muscle and joint Force couples create
stability
• A critical element of “balance
training.”
Muscles surrounding and
stabilizing a joint w force of
muscle configuration.
• We require stronger but more
active top to bottom force
couplings throughout the body.

• Rethink SAID principle.
• Note enough knowledge, yet.
• Injury might be the Specific Adaptation Applied

• Schedule flexible.
• Equal to better results than splits.
• If done consistently more volume is

Personal preference to create context and transfer
Personal preference: Peripheral heart rate
circuits with variable exercises for different
purposes throughout most of the year unless
there’s a seasonal peak..
Pairs, Triplets or Quads
• Upper body
• Lower body
• Conduit or explosive power
• Injury resilliance or counterbalance
This would be a triplet of deadlifts, pull-ups, KB

Training Considerations: Diversify workout equipment
Change the line of pull and
angles of demand
1. Hex bar – line of pull closer to
hips and hip muscles.
2. Hip Thrust – develops
horizontal axis muscles
3. “Easy” squat bar- can sit lower
on back and reduce forward
lean. Compensates for
shoulder limitations.
4. Multi-grip bar – change angle
of arm position during inter-
galactic bench press day
70. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Resistance training personal preference workout structure
• A minimum of two full-body 30- to 60-
minute workouts per week
• “The key to achieving increases in
strength and muscle integrity seems to
be taking a form of volitional failure (as
many reps as possible with proper
technique).”
New info challenges this but sometimes
TTF may be necessary.
• Five to 20* reps pending intensity and
individual preference.
• Quads, Triplet or longer multi-joint free-
weight exercise circuits performed
consecutively then repeated
71. Circuit structure personal preferences
Banded squats
• Warm-up round, transition round,
one or two 10 peak rounds, 5 to 10
reps.
• Three to four circuits
• Balance of pulls and pushes in
multiple planes of motion.
• Individual need exercises.
• lunges, squats and deadlifts for the
lower body and standing dumbbell
curls, rows and cable machines for
the upper body.
• Power, reactive movements, agility
72. © 2022 IDEA Health & Fitness Association. All Rights Reserved. #ideaworld
Block, Undulating or Flexible Periodization
• Workout exercise content contains
elements of stability, strength and power.
• Rotating emphasis depending on
individual competition peak schedule.
• If no competition peaks blocks of
emphasis to stimulate neuromuscular
preservation.

Running biomechanics for hidden energy
Most runners tend to be anterior knee/hip
dominant.
1. Bring the rhythm of the upper body. Swim
don’t box. Boxing seems to indicate
weakness or compensation.
2. Take advantage of the energy created and
stored during mid-stance in the “springs.”
3. Emphasize posterior muscles to create
forward propulsion. Lean into it.
4. Decelerate foots-strike with anterior
muscles.

Adding resistance to feel the “catch and lever” water
1. The tether forces muscle
awareness in liquid.
2. Creates more resistance through
the stroke to learn how to
anchor hand and use muscles to
use levers.
3. Pull-ups vs lat pull-downs

Recovery Modalities (12 billion p/y business)
• Active recovery has most evidential support – especially low
eccentrics – swim, cycle
• Thermotherapies – there is contradictory evidential support
indicating individual response and time under stimulus and
temperature. Some are detrimental
• Self-massage and manual therapies – mostly blood flow.
• Needles, sucking cups, hammers and chisels, pounding guns etc
– mostly bloodflow
• Compression – amount of pressure is important. mostly blood
flow. Some positive evidences for Blood Flow Restriction. (BFR)
Most research concludes with the statement –
“There’s no evidence to support X-Y-Z’s claims but if it makes
individual feel better then do it.”

Cardiovascular workouts
• • Long-distance training mostly inferior in to
stave off decrements of aging in healthy, well-trained
adults.
• •Recommendations for more intensive modalities
over long-distance endurance.
• •Long-distance, low-intensity aerobic is beneficial
through improvements to the cardiovascular system,
but mainly essential for elite-level endurance events.
• •The most important function is its anti-inflammatory
effect, when structured correctly.
• •High-intensity interval training has emerged as the
preferred system of training to enhance overall
cardiovascular function.

Age “Adjustments” -Muscle fiber and motor neuron adjustments
• Loss of muscle (sarcopenia) and loss of strength (dynapenia) begin to occur at the onset of aging
• Decreased satellite cells which signal muscle building.
• These conditions seem to particularly reduce quantities of type IIx and type IIb muscle fibers
• Motor neurons for these types are affected as well. Loss of 30-40% in inactive adults.
• Sometimes Type 1 motor units have to innervate Type 2s

Age “Adjustments” - Regulatory Biochemicals
• Growth hormone responsible for
the repair of muscle damage decreases
with age.
• Vasopressin decreases, regulates
the body’s fluid levels. More susceptible
to dehydration or low hydration.
• Melatonin – sleep initiator -
decreases. Affects recovery.
• Cortisol, a stress hormone and
glucose regulator, increases with age.
Catabolic hormone that can negatively
affect muscle regeneration.

Biochemicals part - 2
• •Epinephrine and norepinephrine are stress hormones essential to heart rates and the
blood flow needed to provide muscles with adequate oxygen.
• Both are released into the bloodstream of older adults at only 40%–50% of the rate for
young adults, but norepinephrine stays in the bloodstream extending catabolic
response. Double whammy! Like ROS and inflammaging
• •Thyroid hormone levels are complex and very individual. They are responsible for
glucose and energy metabolism, and levels change with age.
• •Testosterone and estrogen decrease and affect muscle integrity and bone density.

Age “Adjustments” - Oxygen Delivery Systems
• Declines in maximum heart rate, mitochondria
numbers and VO2max (the maximum rate at which
the body can use oxygen) significantly affect high-
performance training.
• With age, there are also fewer blood vessels to
deliver oxygen to mitochondria
• Along with the creation of more catabolic
byproducts, mitochondrial enzyme preference
toward glycolytic type II fibers
• Oxidative type I fibers become under fueled,
making the muscles more susceptible to fatigue
(Hood et al. 2019).
• There is also a mechanism which appears in 60s that
interferes with blood flow to legs in the early stages
of exercise!!
84. Banded exercises: a brief tour
Squats
Kettlebell – rethinking this one. Better to
attach around hips to stimulate hip drive.
89. Injury “Resilience” Knee adduction strength
• Prefer exercises like this and
previous examples over
abductor/adductor machines as
they call for more neuromuscular
control and platform stability.
90. Knee adduction
strength
• Cossack lunge
• At the right angle of knee,
hip abductors and knee
adductors are stimulated.
• Copenhagen plank
• Start w knee on bench
then as strength
progresses, move down
lower leg.
91. Banded abduction and
adduction
• Banded lateral to medial
adduction from lunge.
• A knee band can be
added to most leg
exercises to strengthen
hip abductors and create
a more stable platform
for knee function.
96. Shoulder
resiliance
Serratus Anterior pushup w
rotation
•Initial pushup position then
slide into SA stimulus
•Rotation of knee under
abdominal w straight foot
position.
•Foot position helps keep
hips engaged properly.
