Dr Peter Clarkson, is climber, former triathlete and an NHS Cardiologist based in the Scottish highlands. He helps answer the question, 'how hard is too hard' when it comes to exercise for an older athlete? How close to maximum heart rate should we be hiking, running and cycling? What are the warning signs we're going too hard, too often?
Dr Clarkson shot a video with me for The Older Athlete Series (tinyurl.com/OlderAthleteVideos) and we met at The Ledge climbing gym in Inverness. You can see the video I made from this chat on KZfaq ( • How hard to train? A C... ). I had to edit out a lot, so this podcast is our whole interview with only minor edits to tidy the conversation, and it's also available to watch in video.
