Why aren't masters athletes told these truths?

Athletes Authority | Facts

Talent and experience aren’t enough anymore.

The physical demands of sport don’t slow down — and if you’re not actively building strength, power, and speed, you’re falling behind athletes who are. The competition gets tougher, and your body needs more than just game-day smarts to keep up.

Athletes Authority | Facts

Time doesn’t have to make you slower, weaker, or more injury-prone — unless you let it.

Without the right training approach, age will chip away at your performance. But with smart, targeted programming, you can extend your peak and stay ahead of your rivals — no matter how many birthdays you’ve had.

Athletes Authority | Facts

Generic programs and training fads won’t cut it anymore.

Most gym programs weren’t built for Masters athletes — and that’s exactly why they often make things worse. Poor progression, inappropriate loading, and cookie-cutter exercises don’t just waste your time — they increase your injury risk.

Athletes Authority | ADP

Here’s the thing…

If just showing up was enough…

…We’d see Masters athletes showing up strong, performing well, and outlasting the competition in every age group.


But we don’t. More often, we see talented, driven athletes struggling with recurring injuries, unpredictable performance, or frustration because they know they’re capable of more — but can’t seem to tap into it.


It’s not their fault. Most training programs are so generic and poorly structured that they completely ignore the realities of training in your 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond — where smart progression, time efficiency and injury management are non-negotiable.


But why does this matter? Unless you’ve had access to elite coaching or competed professionally in your younger years…

The kind of programming that supports long-term performance and injury resilience has been kept in high-performance environments — not made easily available to everyday athletes who still take their sport seriously.


So while the pros and semi-pros have access to expert coaching, smart systems, and structured support, most Masters athletes are left to figure it out on their own — juggling life, training, and recovery without guidance, and often without progress.


That’s why so many end up frustrated, injured, or stuck in a cycle of trial and error — following generic programs, relying on outdated advice, or chasing training trends that aren’t built for their bodies, goals or schedules.


Until now.

The Masters Athlete Program brings real performance systems — once reserved for the elite — into the hands of everyday athletes who are still hungry to compete, improve, and keep showing up at their best.


Because when performance still matters — even if it’s not your full-time job — you deserve a system that’s built for it.

What I most appreciate from being coached by Lachie is that he not only coaches you as an athlete but he teaches you as a student how to and why to perform certain lifts and what benefits you gain from them.”

THIS IS THE SIMPLE FORMULA...

why competing later in life still deserves the best preparation

Athletes Authority | Lachlan Wilmot

FROM THE DESK OF LACHLAN WILMOT, FOUNDER & DIRECTOR OF SPORTS PERFORMANCE

After 14 years working in professional sport with teams like the GWS Giants (AFL), Parramatta Eels (NRL) and NSW Swifts (Super Netball) — and spending time alongside some of Australia’s most recognised athletes — I’ve realised something important:


No matter your age or level, athletes really only want two things.


The first is to compete with confidence.

Not just show up — but know that your body can handle the load, your preparation has been purposeful, and you’re stepping into the arena ready.


To do that, you need:

  • A body that’s strong, resilient and less prone to injury.

  • A performance mindset that helps you push through when it matters.

  • A program that makes every minute of training count — especially when time is limited.

The second? It’s not always about winning.

For Masters athletes, it’s about something deeper — the pursuit of progress.


You want to beat your own PBs.

To test yourself.

To keep showing up because you love the sport — but also because you know you’ve still got more to give.

And here’s the truth: most Masters athletes aren’t held back by lack of talent, age, or motivation.


They’re held back by lack of preparation — or worse, the wrong kind of preparation.


Generic gym programs. Cookie-cutter templates. Random online advice not built for your body, your schedule, or your goals.

It’s no wonder athletes end up stuck, frustrated, or managing ongoing niggles that never quite go away.


That’s why we created the Masters Athlete Program. It’s built for people who love their sport. Who train to feel strong, capable and competitive — and who want a clear, proven system to keep improving without burning out or breaking down.


This isn’t guesswork or gimmicks. It’s the same performance system I’ve used with Australia’s top athletes — refined for athletes who are balancing work, family and a deep love of competing.


If you want to keep pushing boundaries, enjoy the process, and feel fully prepared for every race, match or event — this is your opportunity to train like an athlete again.


You don’t have to settle for “just getting through.”

You can train with purpose. And perform with confidence.

 

How it works

The training system we use in our Masters Athlete Program works so well because it replicates the professional sporting environment. By re-creating a high-performance culture and providing you with the expertise of specialist coaches, we can foster an environment which makes success inevitable.

Or Your Money Back.

the longer you wait the harder it gets...

you still want to compete - so why train like you don't?

Athletes Authority | you only have a small window of opportunity

you only have a limited window of opportunity

You’re not chasing a contract — you’re chasing personal bests, performance, and the feeling of knowing you gave it everything. But let’s be honest: your body doesn’t recover like it used to, and wasted time can lead to setbacks that are harder to bounce back from. If you still love to compete, now’s the time to train smarter — not later.

Athletes Authority | this could be your breakout season

This could be the season you surprise yourself

Whether it’s shaving time off your split, hitting a new PB, or showing up stronger than last year — you’re not here to go through the motions. You’re here to improve. Our system is built to help you get more out of every session so that when race day or game day comes, you're proud of what you put out there.

Athletes Authority | the more time you put into sport, the less you get out of it.

If you’re only training through your sport, you’re missing a key piece.

You can’t rely on just playing your sport to improve your athleticism anymore. As we get older, the return on that time alone gets smaller — and the injury risk gets higher. The secret to staying in the game longer and performing better? Investing in the right kind of physical preparation outside your sport.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

THE PROGRAM

Is my program individualised for me?

No two athletes are created equal, and because of that, all our programs are individualised as needed for our athletes. After completing your Elite Athlete GamePlan™, we will be able to identify exactly what you need to take your performance to the next level in a way that is unique to you.

How are my improvements measured?

We are constantly measuring an athlete’s performance. Whether that’s in day-to-day training and reporting, or more formally every five weeks with performance testing, we hold ourselves accountable to data. We believe that what doesn’t get measured, doesn’t get improved.

How many times do I need to train to get results?

All training programs are individualised for our athletes and for that reason, some athletes will see results with two sessions, while others might need more. We make suggestions on training frequency based on variables like your schedule, the training season you’re in, and, your training history. As a general rule, the higher your exposure to strength, power and speed training, the more likely it will be you need at least three sessions per week. If you’re more junior to this form of physical preparation training, two times per week usually works well.

Am I coached and supervised when I train?

We have a comprehensive small-team training schedule with over 30 sessions per week. During these sessions, you will work alongside other athletes with four coaches on duty. This makes sure we can keep a quality 4:1 ‘athlete:coach ratio’ so every athlete gets the attention they need.

Do you work on my speed and agility?

Yes. For athletes who compete on their feet, speed, change of direction and agility usually contribute significantly to your best performance. Because of these reasons, we do specific speed and agility sessions on field to work on sprint & running mechanics so you move well, and move fast.

I live far away and travel will be hard. What options are available to me?

If you really want our coaching and support but can’t make it regularly to our facility, we do provide online coaching when it is a good fit for you. While it’s not cheaper in price (because we don’t see you in the facility, it’s actually more work to make sure you get the quality of service you deserve as we have to review all your training online), it is a great option when working with us at our facilities isn't viable. You can choose to train at your local facility or, hire gear from us as part of your program at no extra cost so you can train at home.

I'd love to train at home once a week is that possible?

Yes. We provide equipment for all our athletes if they’d like to do one of their sessions at home. We’ll coordinate how to best go about this during your first week with us.

What is the full list of inclusions for the Masters Program?

You can read the whole list of inclusion to our Masters Development Program and Masters Elite Performance Program in the table above.

MEMBERSHIP

Why does the program go for a year?

You didn’t get to where you are now overnight, and you won’t get to where you want to go with a quick-fix, either.

You’ve probably heard that saying that “Rome wasn’t built in a day.” The same thing applies to your ambition in sport: “Great athletes weren’t built in a day.”

That’s why our program works in season cycles. It gives us enough time for our expertise and training systems to combine with your work ethic to get incredible results.

I can't commit for a year. Do you do shorter term programs?

Our Masters Elite Performance Program may be the most suitable option for you. We’ll assess your situation on a case-by-case basis and if it makes sense for you to join our program, we’ll get the wheels in motion. Extra fees may apply.

What are the different options for paying?

There are two options for payment.

When you prepay for our annual training pass, you will save you 10% on our advertised weekly price.

More commonly, our athletes pay weekly using our payment partners at Stripe (processing fees apply)

I didn't see an option for online training. Do you do that?

In some cases, we do look after athletes remotely. If you live interstate or can’t make it to the facility, please reach out to us and we’ll assess if we can help. Most of the time, we’ll refer you to a coach we recommend in your city, because nothing beats coaching and accountability in the flesh. However, if you really want to work with us, we can explore that option with you.

PRICING

What is the cost of joining the Masters Development Program?

The cost of joining the ADP for the year is $5044. Flexible payment terms are available through our payment Stripe if you'd like to pay weekly. This comes out to $13 per day or $97 p/w.

If I pay upfront, do I get a discount?

Yes. When you prepay for the year, you’ll an additional 10% off our advertised weekly price.

Why is it more expensive to work with you for a shorter period of time?

There are lot of inclusions in the program that you don’t pay for that we build into the yearly subscription. If you choose to work with us for a shorter period of time, we have to account for these extra inclusions. We also want to incentivise those that are truly committed to the process.

I don't like direct debit (the big commercial gyms ruined it for me). What are my options?

We totally understand. Both Karl and Lachlan worked at big commercial gyms and understand how a lot of trust has been lost with gyms and direct debit (DD) memberships. If you don’t feel comfortable setting up a DD with us, prepaying for the year is still available to you.
