Train Smart, Rest Smarter: The New Rules of Recovery for Healthy Aging
Live Long Better, The Not Old Better Fitness Interview Series, featuring Dr. Sabrena Jo
Too many older adults think rest means giving up. It doesn't. It means you're in this for the long haul.
In this episode of LIVE. LONG. BETTER, I talk with Dr. Sabrena Jo of the American Council on Exercise about why recovery is not a pause from progress—it's part of it. We cover how rest fuels resilience, how to avoid burnout, and why smarter training—not harder—leads to better aging.
This is for anyone who wants to stay active, strong, and sharp well into their 60s, 70s, and beyond.
