  Sex Can Get Better With Age — What No One Tells You | Joan Price, 82

  Aug 26, 202651 minS1

  We spend a lot of time preparing for how our bodies will change with age. We think about strength, mobility, sleep, recovery, and longevity. But almost nobody prepares for how sex, desire, intimacy, and pleasure may change too. In this conversation, I speak with Joan Price, one of the best-known voices on sex and aging, about what really changes over time — and why some parts of our sex lives can actually get better.Joan is 82, but this is not a conversation just for people in their seventies or eighties. Much of what she shares may be most useful earlier, in your thirties, forties, and fifties, while your body still feels familiar and before relationship habits become deeply entrenched. We talk about what changes physically, what can improve, why communication becomes more important with age, how long-term couples can stay connected, and what happens when desire no longer arrives as automatically as it once did. I’m very grateful to Joan for the generosity, candor, humor, and life experience she brought to this conversation. Note: This episode includes frank discussion of sex, sexual function, grief, and intimacy. Joan’s Books & Resources Joan’s books include Naked at Our Age , Sex After Grief , The Ultimate Guide to Sex After 50 , Better Than I Ever Expected , and Ageless Erotica .

  You Are Losing Physical Abilities Over Time — Even If You Train Hard Today | Dan Edwardes

  Aug 19, 20261h 26mS1

  Ageless Athlete Newsletter . Weekly longevity insights + behind-the-scenes. No spam ever. You can train hard, stay fit, and still lose physical abilities you are no longer asking your body to use. Dan Edwardes has spent more than two decades at the forefront of parkour as a practitioner, coach, and movement educator. His work has helped shape parkour into a global movement practice, with coach education programs delivered internationally through Parkour Generations and ADAPT. In this episode, we use parkour to explore a bigger question: what physical capabilities are you still losing, even if you still exercise? We talk about why fitness does not always equal capability, the movement patterns adults stop practicing, why jumping, climbing, balancing, and reacting still matter, and how parkour can be scaled for people well into their 60s, 70s, 80s, and beyond. We also get into fear: when it is useful, when it becomes reckless, and why it often appears right at the edge of something you may actually be capable of doing. Dan is amazing. Don't miss this one.

  Training Secrets of the World’s Best Athletes Over 50

  Aug 12, 202659 minS1

  Ageless Athlete Newsletter . Weekly longevity insights + behind-the-scenes. No spam ever. What do the world’s best athletes over 50 do differently? After more than 140 conversations with elite climbers, cyclists, surfers, runners, mountaineers, and coaches, I went back through the Ageless Athlete archive looking for the patterns. The sports are different. The principles are surprisingly consistent. In this episode: Why older athletes still need intensity and power Why recovery often has to expand with age How the best athletes reverse-engineer the exact demands of their goals Why strength training matters even if your sport already feels demanding When specialization beats variety Why community may be part of the training plan How great athletes protect continuity instead of chasing one heroic day The goal is not to train like a 25-year-old forever. It is to keep training like an athlete—while adapting the methods.

  Your Current Body Won’t Carry You Forever — Change Before You Get Stuck | Rob Lea

  Aug 5, 20261h 30mS1

  Ageless Athlete Newsletter . Weekly longevity insights + behind-the-scenes. No spam ever. At 45, Rob Lea became the first person in history to complete the Double Seven: climbing the highest summit on every continent and swimming the Oceans Seven. To do it, he had to accept that one version of his body could not carry him through every challenge. The body that climbed Everest was not the body he needed for cold-water swimming. Major ankle surgery changed how he trained. Injuries, failed attempts, recovery, and age kept forcing him to adapt. And Rob did all of this while working in real estate and fitting training around clients, travel, and everyday life. In this conversation, we talk about: Why your current body and training approach will not work forever How to adapt without giving up ambitious goals The difference between looking fit and being capable Training by feel instead of chasing perfect data The Molokaʻi swim that left Rob with fluid in his lungs What happens when a 17-year goal is finally complete Why staying an athlete may require becoming a different one Rob is also quick to point out that none of this happened alone. His wife, Caroline Gleich, and his parents supported the journey in countless ways—from giving up vacation time and driving him to airports to watching the dog while he was away. Rob’s story is extreme, but the lesson is universal: your body will change. The question is whether you change with it before you get stuck.

  They Told Him He Was Too Old. At 66, He Set a World Record | Joe Barr

  Jul 29, 20261h 32mS1

  At 66, Joe Barr set out to ride the full length of Route 66 and attempt something no one had officially documented before. The ride demanded far more than fitness. It tested sleep, judgment, preparation, teamwork, and Joe’s ability to keep moving when every part of him wanted to stop. Joe has spent a lifetime in cycling. He represented Ireland at two Commonwealth Games, raced professionally, completed Race Across America, and later built a second career in ultra-distance racing after being told he was too old. In this conversation, we explore: • What ultra-cycling asks of the mind • Why Joe refuses to let age define his limits • How experience changes the way an athlete responds to fatigue • Why endurance is about management, not macho toughness • The inner dialogue that helps him keep moving • What it means to protect the ability to keep doing what you love This is a conversation about self-determination, longevity, and the difference between respecting age and surrendering to it. I'll be remembering this one for a long time!
