- I have a question about the episode The Secrets of Gymnastic Strength Training | Christopher Sommer | The Tim Ferriss Show (Podcast) and the clip Aging and Mobility. I am a retired college hockey player who used to have a sports-specific workout throughout my youth and early 20s. It has been 3 years, going on 4, since I graduated from college. I am 25 years old and have hit a gym plateau. I have been using the gym to manage my anxious, high-energy feelings but have lost a sense of what I am capable of. I feel burnt out and lack an understanding of how much my body should endure in the gym. How can I get my body back to where I am confident I can perform certain lifts without the long-term aches and pains that tend to follow today?
