In episode 11, I discuss the importance of resistance training with both Ian Northcott and Brian Sterling-Vete.  Ian now runs Mercian Nordic Walking and is passionate about helping individuals reach their full potential.  He holds various fitness qualifications and is also a consultant to The World Isometric Exercise Association, as well as being the founder of the charity, Socks and Chocs, for which he was awarded the British Empire Medal.  Brian Sterling-Vete is an expert in isometric, and isokinetic exercises.  He invented the ISOfitness system of advanced isometric exercise combinations and  explains  why these are important.

Apologies for the disruption in sound quality; the British weather is to blame for the interrupting our broadband connections.
