Welcome to the Evergreen Athlete podcast...


This podcast is designed for people who used to live for sport but are now in a different place. They've recently focused on their careers and families and are unsure how to train athletically as they age. They have different stressors and problems. My name is Finlay MacHugh, and this is something that I have gone through myself to help people overcome every single day. If you're here, you likely have questions about how to train and live optimally. So this is what to expect...


What You’ll Get:


  1. Practical Toolkit: I'll share principles and learnings to help you train efficiently, effectively and productively.
  2. Expert Insights: In-depth discussions with leading coaches, health experts, and performance specialists.
  3. Experiences: Real-life learnings and mistakes from myself and my clients.


About Me (Your Host):


As of writing this in February 2025, I have been a strength and conditioning coach for 15 years, and I've coached at some level for 20 (Christ, that's scary). I'm the founder of Evergreen Athlete, an online coaching platform for those over 30s who want to regain their consistency and confidence to be their best version.

012 - How To Make Your Athletic Comeback

Finlay heads back to the platform after 11 years and discovers that the most challenging part of a comeback isn’t the barbell. If you’ve ever wondered whether signing up for an event would reignite your edge, this short debrief will give you a nudge, without spoiling the details.


Key Talking Points

  • What finally pushed him from “one day” to a date on the calendar
  • The unexpected cost of a great training day
  • How two red-light calls made the meet more useful than any PB
  • A mindset shift that quiets comparison and keeps momentum
  • Three simple filters he’ll use before entering the next comp


----


Before you head off, a quick one...


If you used to live for sport and the itch to compete hasn’t gone away - but niggles, work and family keep tripping you up - I coach people just like you.


We’ll get you training with purpose again, manage the niggles and injuries, and rebuild steady progress that brings your confidence back.


Keen to know more?


Send me a DM with “EVERGREEN” on Instagram @finlay.evergreen.athlete and we’ll have a chat about the next intake.


Cheers,

Finlay
