This week on Ageless Athlete, we're joined by a true climbing icon: Eric Hörst. Eric's not just a world-renowned climber, author, and coach—he's a pioneer who revolutionized climbing training and nutrition, inspiring generations of climbers to reach new heights.
We'll journey back to the 80s, a time when climbing was a niche sport with limited resources. Eric was a trailblazer, experimenting with techniques and philosophies that transformed the way we train. He shared his insights through ground-breaking books and articles, helping climbers everywhere push their limits.
But Eric's influence extends far beyond the climbing world. He's a devoted father who raised a family of passionate climbers, demonstrating that a love for adventure and the outdoors can be passed down through generations.
This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom. We'll uncover the secrets to Eric's own approach to aging and staying in the game, his insights on balancing a demanding life with his passion for climbing, and how to make the most of training for longevity and well-being. Listen for:
Raising a Climbing Family: How to cultivate a love for climbing in your children without pushing them too hard.
Selecting a Climbing Coach: Eric breaks down the key factors to consider when choosing a climbing coach, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned climber.
The Best Training Board for You: Eric offers his expert opinion on the pros and cons of various training boards, including the Moon Board, Kilter Board, and his own personal favorite.
The Power of Saunas and Cold Baths: Eric discusses the benefits of both saunas and cold baths for recovery and injury prevention. He emphasizes that using these modalities effectively requires understanding the nuances and the science behind each approach.
Intermittent Fasting for Athletes: Eric shares his personal experience with intermittent fasting and explains why he doesn't recommend it for serious athletes.
Nutrition is Key: Eric emphasizes that a whole food diet is the foundation of any good nutrition plan, but even the most well-designed diet can have some deficiencies. He advocates for regular blood work to track vital markers, especially as we age. He stresses the importance of getting enough protein, essential minerals, and micronutrients to optimize performance, recovery, and overall health.
Beyond the Grades: Eric shares his perspective on climbing goals and how they evolve with age. He believes that focusing on the experience and joy of climbing, rather than solely on achieving specific grades, is crucial for long-term happiness and fulfillment.

"It's not about being the star that day or catching the biggest wave. It's just, that's the one you remember and you carry all your life." 🏄🏽♂️🌊
What does it take to live a life in pursuit of waves for over 6 decades? Today's guest, Gary Linden, has been doing just that - riding everything from 2-foot rollers to 50-foot behemoths around the globe since the age of 12.Gary was one of the first true surfing nomads, traveling to remote regions and living amongst local cultures from Brazil to Japan in search of uncrowded breaks. You'll hear hilarious tales of getting hopelessly lost hiking through dense jungles, camping for months in tiny fishing villages near secluded waves, and the unbridled thrill of exploration in those wide-open days before surf forecasts.
But Gary's true legacy is as the pioneering face of modern big wave riding. Imagine swells the size of three-story buildings barreling across an oblivion of ocean - that's the canvas where Gary etched his name. Hear how an unwavering mindset of commitment allowed this slight 135-pound waterman to paddle into some of the heaviest slabs on the planet at bomboras like Todos Santos and the bone-crunching barrels of Puerto Escondido. His fearless vision led him to create the original Big Wave World Tour to crown the planet's best big wave chargers.
Now at 74 years young and still surfing frequently, Gary opens up with raw honesty about the habits, philosophies and convictions that have kept him ageless in pursuit of his one true passion - surfing. With humor and wisdom forged from decades in the lineup, he imparts insights about prioritizing what matters, overcoming setbacks, and leaving a legacy by doing what you love.

Nick Martinez has been quietly ticking the hardest and scariest big walls in Yosemite for the last two decades. 🧗♂️ From early climbing dreams in Brazil, Nick made his way to Yosemite, finding community with legends like Jim Bridwell, Dean Potter and the Huber brothers, and making a name for himself amongst the Valley titans. 💪
Despite profound heartbreak of losing loved ones and his own near-fatal BASE jumping accident, Nick found a way to keep climbing, and finding purpose in the mountains he loves. ⛰️
Get ready for laughs too as Nick, a natural storyteller with a dry wit, recounts wild anecdotes from climbing alongside El Cap legends, epic climbs, close calls, and the unique dirtbag ethos. 🏕️
Nick's story is a powerful reminder that even amidst the darkest shadows, there is always a path forward. This rare and candid interview is not to be missed.

"It's kind of like... when the oracle is talking to Neo, and she's like, 'Know thyself.' I think if you just really stay true to yourself, and go, and just follow your dreams, I don't think you can lose." 💫🏄🏽♀️
When I happened to chance upon a video of Katie McConnell masterfully dropping into monster waves in Nazaré, Portugal , and then heard her thoughtfully describe epic hold-downs, I knew I had to try to bring her on the show. Katie's trophy case is overflowing with wins at prestigious events , and this interview is quite timely as she just won the tow award at the Red Bull Magnitude in Hawaii! However, more than just a big wave rider, Katie is a brilliant marine biologist and a true champion of the oceans. 🌊🐠
This conversation goes beyond the podium. Katie opens up about her journey of self-discovery through surfing, the challenges of being a female pioneer in a male dominated sport, and her creative hustle to balance her passions with the realities of life. It’s an honor to be able to share her intelligence, humility, and gift for storytelling. 🙏🏾💜

"Oh those early days. We started with a clothesline and carabiners, venturing onto cliffs with no adult supervision. Looking back, it's a miracle we survived" 🧗🏾😅
Today, we travel to India 🇮🇳 to meet Mohit Oberoi, a man who turned his passion for adventure into a way of life. Mohit shows a side of that country that may surprise you.
Welcome to the world of Mo.
Growing up in the 80s, Mo and his friends were climbing pioneers, questing up cliffs outside Delhi with homemade gear because the sport simply wasn't established. But Mo didn't stop there! Ironman triathlons? Check. 💪 Swim the English Channel? Done. 🏊♂️ Ultra-runs across the Himalayas? You bet. 🏃♂️ With the spirit of a new learner, Mo learns new sports, and goes on to take them to their apex.
His story isn't all smooth sailing – there have been injuries and setbacks. 🤕 Mo gets right back up, learns from his mistakes, and keeps going.
