You can train hard, stay fit, and still lose physical abilities you are no longer asking your body to use.

Dan Edwardes has spent more than two decades at the forefront of parkour as a practitioner, coach, and movement educator. In this conversation, we use parkour to explore a bigger question for anyone over 40: what are you quietly losing, even if you still exercise?

We talk about why fitness does not always equal capability, the movement patterns adults stop practicing, why jumping, climbing, balancing, reacting, and landing still matter, and how these skills can be rebuilt safely at almost any age.

This episode is about staying useful, adaptable, confident, and capable in the real world — not just looking fit on paper. If you want to keep moving well into your 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond, this one will challenge how you think about training.
