  • Worlds fittest book - Ross Edgley

  • How to eat, move and be healthy - Paul Chek (some of the methods are a little controversial but all round a great read)

 

YouTube 

  • Athlene-X (physiotherapist and personal trainer) - great resource for training advice.

  • Ben Coomber TV (has a YouTube channel but also a great podcast called Ben Coomber radio)

  • Geoff Nippard (American YouTuber, very science based. Channel provides lots of good advice re. training)

  • Tom Merrick (channel is called body weight warrior - channel dedicated to great stretching)

  • Joe Therapy (again go to channel for stretching and mobility)

  • Joe Defranco (has a YouTube channel, amazing podcast too but most importantly check out his videos “limber 11” and “agile 8”. Provides great stretch and mobility routines. Prehab and rehab expert so very knowledgable on training)

  • Joe Defranco (The industrial strength show)

  • Ben Coomber radio (British guy)

  • Joe Defranco (listen to the episodes with David Goggins, Ross Edgley, Led Hamilton)

Remember:

  1. Stay hydrated. Even a slight drop in your hydration will have a big impact on how you feel and perform.

  2. A little is better than nothing. Your workout doesn’t need to be an hour long and involve lots of complicated exercises. 20 mins 1-2 x week doing some basic movements (squats, lunges, press ups) will go a long way to helping improve your strength and fitness. Be consistent and results will come.

  3. Technique is key! When exercising, the quality of your movement is always far more important than how many reps and sets you do. Try and focus on always going through the full range of movement on any exercise and your strength will develop much faster.

  4. Include strength work! So many people focus solely on cardiovascular exercise. There is nothing necessarily wrong with only doing cardio exercise. It’s great for the heart and lungs, will build cardiovascular endurance and strength but to really develop muscular strength you need to try and include some resistance exercises. These not only build strength in the muscles but will also strengthen the joints, ligaments and tendons too, which will all contribute to a healthier stronger body as we get older.
