motivation of many Masters athletes to improve and progress ( Young, 2013 ). It is well-established that elite sprint performance—as quantified by race time—decreases with age ( Aguiar et al., 2020 ; Arampatzis, Degens, Baltzopoulos, & Rittweger, 2011 ; Korhonen, Haverinen, & Degens, 2014 ) and that this

Some studies have shown that both endurance runners ( Borghini et al., 2015 ; Denham et al., 2013 ; Hernando et al., 2020 ) and sprinters ( Simoes et

. The literature presents that during interval aerobic exercises, the manipulation of recovery time modulates total physiological disorders, especially when the recovery duration is short (≤60 s) ( Schoenmakers et al., 2019 ). While in sprint IE, long rests (≥80 s) seem to facilitate higher intensities

In addition, the group of master athletes in our study have lower levels of FMI correlating to higher concentrations of Sirt1, which is possibly a contributing factor to better metabolic health
