Takeaways The off-season is a good time to focus on body composition goals, such as losing body fat or gaining muscle. When focusing on body composition, it's important to avoid extreme diets and instead make small adjustments to calorie intake and macronutrient distribution. Strength training is important during the off-season to support muscle mass and body composition goals. Older runners should pay attention to their protein intake to prevent muscle loss and support recovery. Regular blood tests can help identify any nutrient deficiencies and guide the use of supplements.
