In this episode I give my honest personal opinion on an array of supplements often bought amongst the fitness industry.

One of my more difficult podcasts to speak about the issues we face in mental health. The reason for this was to be honest a big part of the grieving process for me of a team mate and friend who took their life last week.

I want to show people that it's ok to speak up about it and I think it needs to be done more, so here's episode 13, enjoy.

In this episode I speak freely about the negative impact social media influencers are having on younger generations and those struggling with being overweight.

I give my no holds barred opinion on what we can do to prevent it doing more damage to our society and I'm sure the whole of Essex will not be happy either.

In this podcast I talk about how I've gone from getting arrested at 13, kicked out of school at 15 and working in door to door sales at 20 all the way to being CEO of a multi million dollar fitness business before 30.

In this episode I speak freely and openly about my honest personal opinion with regards to Joe and the history we have. I speak about current issues, trends and problems I see in the fitness industry.
