#201 What’s changed in the last 25 years?
Recently James was reflecting on his 25 years in the fitness industry & how the world (& our daily lives) have changed over that time.
He & Pete discuss the changes in habits, food, technology, lifestyle & the convenience culture & how despite having so much more knowledge, opportunity (& supposedly) time, we, as a collective, are unhealthier & less active than we were a quarter century ago.
Is there a way to go back to a healthier time? Possibly - Back to the Future? -

We discuss the nature of training itself, our inherit desire to find complexity in all things & how to use Dan’s programmes in a logical & systemised manner.
As always, this is an insightful & thought provoking conversation with one of the most respected strength coaches in the world. -

This is an open, honest & frank conversation with a lady, who through training has found a way to grow in confidence, belief, ability & is now more comfortable than ever to stand out. -
