    Simon. Another informative and helpful video. Just completed 2 days on the Goldfield Track here in Victoria, bikepacking on MTB. Combining very rough, eroded and rocky steep gradients - a great deal of hike-a-bike - with smooth vehicular gravel and sealed roads. What stands out to me is that I’ve spent 6 years since turning 72 to build the Foundations carefully. Just as the video shows. Regular, sustained aerobic exercise with friends, resistance gym training on weights, combined with regular check-ups and tweaking from my GP has delivered me a fabulous eighth decade. I feel that with the right gear and sensible risk management, I can still take on otherwise daunting cycling challenges. Keep up the good work. Thank you Simon.

    Fitness hinges on regular exercise, balanced nutrition, sufficient rest, and mental well-being.
    Thank you so much for bringing us such a great video about health and fitness❤

    Inspiring video. I turned 70 last year ( not sure how that happened!!). I try to get out every day for a bike ride or a walk, this has persuaded me I'm not too old to start running again.... Thanks 😀

    I'm 61 tomorrow. Yikes. my Vo2 max was 46 and moved to 47. I use a Garmin 165. Run , cycle, surf. never a competitive athlete. Nothing extreme. Just eat simple and enjoy outdoor sport all my life. Completed 7 park runs this year for the first time. it was fun

    A great video as always. When I was younger access to a sport med was pretty easy but I swear I need that sport med consultation more as I age than I did in my teens and twenties.

  • @lydiagould3090
    @lydiagould3090 5 месяцев назад

    He's an amazing athlete! In my younger days I ran many long distances, from 1500 metres on the track to a 24 hour Trans wales race ,and numerous fell races. When he mentioned internal physiology, I knew that is why i can't run those distances now. I seemed to get away with bad conformation (knees) until early 50s then everything went downhill. I run short distances now and can't get anywhere near even my steady past running pace. It is so demoralising I focus on my cycling racing now ,and just try and run purely for fun .

      There are indisputable ageing effects we sometimes don’t want to admit. Working within them and pushing the boundaries seems to be the best way forward.

    Be good to see a in depth video on training around health and Injury problems that a great deal of older athletes have myself included. Am mainly in to rock climbing an suffer with back issues.
    Great video cheers Simon

    • @alwaysanotheradventure
      @alwaysanotheradventure  5 месяцев назад +1

      I would love to do that Garry. The problem is injuries often have suck different causes, the ability to continue training with them, varies between individuals. What works for one type of back injury could be exactly the wrong thing to do with another type. It’s tricky for any of these professionals to provide any type of generalised advice - many resist - and I fear advising post-injury training could be one step too far. If I’ve misunderstood, please come back to me.

  • @AndrewPawley11
    @AndrewPawley11 5 месяцев назад +2

    I don't think Dr Murray would ever advise any of his patients to continue to train on an injury - particularly an overuse injury to the Achilles. That's the fastest way to join the zipper club. I believe the advice would be the much-ballyhooed "RICE" protocol - Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation - which I can attest from personal experience works marvellously. Odd then that he would not follow his own guidance.

    • @jacklauren9359
      @jacklauren9359 5 месяцев назад

      It all depends on the severity of the “overuse injury”. He didn’t say to soldier on. If someone can carry on when there’s a race then what you gonna do? There’s some mental aspects to factor in. Not many have mental fortitude. If it’s mild injury for the Dr then he used pain as caution. Pain level of 3-4 at best is fine.

      @@jacklauren9359 Respectfully, that's the biggest load of BS the internet has seen today. And that's saying something. But, please feel free to do whatever you want when it's you that's injured.

      Rest is important but ice decreases blood flow to the tendon slowing the healing process. He was icing so he could get through his run bc ice also acts as an analgesic. He is putting himself at risk for a rupture. Ice is beneficial in tendinitis not tendinosis or tendinopathy. The latter two cellular changes have occurred and disruption of the cellular matrix. ART, Graston, dry needling and the Alfredson protocol can work well, but it does take a long time bc tendinitis is just inflammation whereas tendinosis and tendinopathy cellular changes have occurred to the tendon and you need to reinitiate the bodies healing process.

      Funny right? It’s the simple things that stubborn people do not want to do. It’s because they do not enjoy putting in the work.

    Is exercise induced hematuria a factor?

    • @alwaysanotheradventure
      @alwaysanotheradventure  5 месяцев назад +3

      I’ve had that after walking consecutive 36 mile days. Also called March Hematuria as it was first diagnosed when Napoleon made his troops march too far in a day. Not good for you but easily recovered from with 2 days rest.

      Is that the same as saying hardly any marathon runners reach 100? It’s just a bit too far.
