I have written a small contribution piece to the article "Everything You Know About Fitness Is Wrong" which looks at some of the most common mistakes we can make when it comes to physical fitness - you can read about in Men's Fitness magazine February 2013 edition (out any day now).

Men's Fitness Workout Guide: June 2011

Pick up the current edition of Men's Fitness (UK) - June 2011 and there is a free 33 page guide.   A workout manual for those new to training and for those who are experienced but want a different perspective on training. 

Another reason for the plug is because I have contributed to the Training Toolkit.  Here's a quick sample on how to motivate yourself with activity outside a gym environment:

"You shouldn't think that the only thing you can do outdoors is run or play sports.  Use your imagination and the environment as a gym.  Interact with nature as well as urban features.  For example use a tree branch to do a pull-ups.  

Base your circuit on what you can see around you, keep your mind focussed on the process as well as the end result."

Featured Article: Men's Fitness UK

Featured Article: Men's Fitness UK


The Fitness Explorer is featured in Men's Fitness magazine. 

The article entitled "BODY POWER" is featured in this month's issue of the magazine (edition Jan 2011).  

There is discussion on the limitations and benefits of bodyweight training.  

In terms of injury prevention, building muscle mass and generating power - manipulating your own body should be the most important aspect of any training programme.
