Over the last few weeks, my daughter and my eldest son have started to ask more questions about my background.
They are curious to find out more about where I came from and the incidences of the past.
“Where is my biological Father?”
“What happened when I was a child?”
Thes...
I’ve just finished a 3 day fast consuming only water followed by a couple of days of vegetable juices as taught to me by my first mentor Peter Hudson.

People often tell me “I don’t really have any goals.”
Everyone has goals but they are often not very good ones.

Many people waste vast amounts of energy on things they can’t change, things that don’t matter and even things that aren’t true.
Change is all about the sacrifice.
You have to know what you need to give up and what isn’t servi...
What is Toxic Masculinity?

I’ve already explained the terminology within a video on this but I’m going to discuss it again because it’s still coming up time and again by both young and older men.

People don’t quit destructive habits for their parents, their children, friends ...
Anyone that has worked with me or knows my background will know that I have practised a very wide range of physical conditioning practises.

New Years resolutions can sometimes create more pressure than is necessary.
Coming from a strong sporting background I often spot common and frequent mistakes made by those that expect to go into an all out high productivity and performance mode, as soon as January arrive...
