About This Podcast

If you wanted to ski, bike, hike, and climb into your 100s, how would you train your body to do that? The "100 Year Athlete," an Off The Mountain (OTM) production, dives into the stories and training habits of ageless athletes ranging from Olympians to local legends. We learn about what they do in the gym and why, how they fuel and recover, and what it means to balance longevity and performance into the golden years. If your goal is to play in the mountains without age and injuries holding you back, this podcast is for you.
