The story
I was always into sport. Then a head injury left a cyst against my brain. For two years I couldn't play anything or even shake my head. Specialists, scans, and very nearly an operation, until the pain went away on its own.
After my A levels I went into the civil service and kept training. One day I was sitting on the leg press, looking across at the bench, too scared to walk over to it. I sat there and decided.
"I'm going to learn everything I can about fitness, because I don't want anybody ever to feel like that."
