Training & Recovery Across Different Age Groups — Featuring Coach Rich

In this episode of Elite Sports Talk, Nate and Coach Rich break down how training and recovery should evolve across different age groups — from youth athletes to adults and seasoned competitors.

They discuss why younger athletes need structure without burnout, how recovery becomes more critical as training intensity increases, and what older athletes must prioritize to stay strong, mobile, and injury-free. Coach Rich also shares real-world coaching insights on adjusting volume, intensity, and recovery strategies based on age, lifestyle, and experience level.

You’ll learn:

• How training demands change from youth to adult athletes

• Why recovery looks different at each stage of life

• Common mistakes athletes make when training like they’re “still 18”

• How to build longevity without sacrificing performance

• Practical recovery strategies for every age group

Whether you’re coaching, training, or supporting athletes at any level, this episode gives you a smarter framework for training bodies that change — without breaking them.
