Yes on a daily basis I see how peoples mental and physical health spiral if they haven't been to the gym regularly, even guys in the gym battling cancer the evilest of all diseases are empowered by working out. So why, why, why wouldn't the government want to cut the queues in half overnight at the doctors by giving out a gym membership instead of prescription drugs. Or is it all about the ££££'s???? and keeping us on their payroll. AND GUESS THE SONG INTRO AT THE END OF THE SHOW!!! Let me know Dino.

Not since the Beatles, the Rolling Stones or maybe Elvis back in the day have i seen this impact visually on the youngsters. Thank F i haven't got to look at that anymore.... if they carry his training ethic then that's all good though! Sam Sulek does exactly what it says on the tin.

I never had a clue who he was and he never had any idea who i was,  but we had one thing in common, we just love effin bodybuilding and by the end of the week it was sad to see him leave. No frills, no B/S just a kid who loves it!! Until next time son..... I'll get the kettle on!!

It's so so important to get the kids into sport at an early age, one for obviously for the physical aspect but just as important if not more so is the mental strength and resilience that you will build on the way.
And not to be overlooked is that sense of belonging that you'll feel too, believe me I know.  So here I will touch on my experiences and how the gym has helped me & more importantly how getting into sport and out of the house saved me. 
The gym and sport ask for nothing but gives you everything.

Mental health and mental health awareness is something I'm so very passionate about especially in men. Today I'm joined in the studio by Mr Finn and we discuss how some men find it hard to open up and talk about there feelings. We talk about anxiety, low self esteem, depression and the link between testosterone and aggression.  As we all know that self talk we have can be destructive so lets talk and today we only scratched the surface so James will be back. Oh every guest in the studio has to take on the golden disk and hold it out as long as possible .... lets see how he did!!!!
I really hope this podcast helps.

Only a quicky this week as off to Spain, but because of the sheer amount of messages I'm getting at the moment I thought we should touch on this subject  and hopefully I'll have something for my teeth to get into when I'm back, after you lot have put your two pennies worth in. I am now being asked more and more  frequently "Dino, i feel so uncomfortable working out alongside men training with there tops off & a tripod and and camera on the machine next to me while I'm working out next to them." 
Your thoughts?
