Expect to get the everyday perspective on going from being a fat bloke in your 30's to above average in your 40's, his  poor associations and constant battle with food, Mark's appalling parenting and life advice, how hormones can impact your mental health, the benefits of testosterone replacement therapy and much more...

 @MarkLewisfitness is a Fitness YouTuber with over 265k subscribers! In his 30’s he was out of shape, unhealthy and unmotivated. Today, at 50 years old, he's fitter than ever, competes in competitions covering a wide range of sports and has great fun doing so.

However, he doesn’t take any of it too seriously and believes in a balanced lifestyle. His aim is not to be the best, but simply enjoy what he does and try to perform (a little) above average. You don’t need to copy him, you don’t need to do what he does…just watch, enjoy, laugh and get on track to your own success.
