About this episode

John Welbourn and Tom Newman discuss the elements necessary for athletes to maintain high performance over decades.

What does it really take to build an athlete who performs at a high level for decades instead of seasons? In this episode of Power Athlete Radio, John Welbourn sits down with Tom Newman to explore the connection between strength, brain health, athletic performance, recovery, and longevity. They discuss why modern athlete development requires more than simply lifting heavier or training harder, and how a systems-based approach can improve resilience, recovery, and long-term performance.
