Why training your mental fitness is just as important as physical

The Body Coach: Extraordinary People

From 21 stone to strong, fit and healthy, Dr Alex George has transformed his fitness – but it’s his work on mental health that he credits for it.

In this episode, Joe Wicks sits down with Dr Alex to discuss what led him to turn to food and alcohol as a comfort, what it was like being an A&E doctor during the pandemic and the work he’s doing to prevent suicide in young people. 

Plus, Alex shares why purpose is important for your health, the benefits of walking and he offers tips for when you’re feeling particularly stressed.
