Health & Fitness
Training like a human post-career.
What's Happening
Your body changes after competitive sports. Metabolism shifts, old injuries resurface, recovery takes longer, and the training intensity that worked for performance may not serve long-term health. The transition requires a different approach to movement, nutrition, and recovery.
Why Athletes
Former athletes have a deep understanding of their bodies but need to adapt training principles for longevity rather than peak performance. Mobility, injury prevention, and sustainable habits become priorities over competition readiness.
What Not to Do
- Train at the same intensity as competition days
- Ignore pain or old injuries
- Skip mobility and recovery work
- Maintain competition weight if it's not sustainable
What to Do
- Prioritize mobility and flexibility
- Address old injuries with proper care
- Adjust nutrition for new activity levels
- Build sustainable movement habits
- Work with professionals who understand athletic transitions
