    This was a big one for me, first combat athlete on the podcast and the first time that both people on the podcast had their nips out (or anyone to be fair). Double whammy!!

    We had a good chat about his style of training, early Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu lessons and the role of strength in the sport.

    I hope you enjoy the podcast amigos!

  • Higher Training Podcast Episode 5 - Chloe Brennan

    Chloe Brennan - Episode 5 This episode I’ve been lucky enough to be joined by Chloe Brennan, England’s reigning strongest woman. Competing in the lightweight category she has also recently placed 4th at the Arnold Classic, an amazing feat for a 24-year-old. We had a very interesting chat about her early days in strongwoman, why women should do strength training and how it doesn’t make you bulky. Women like Chloe are kicking gender stereotypes in the bollox and it was great to hear what it’s been like for her to excel in what is seen as a predominantly male sport

    On this episode I’m joined by Miranda AKA @thebodyweightbitch who is a boxing and flow instructor and the founder of @thebitchclinic. This one went deep!

  • Higher Training Podcast Episode 1 - Biofitness
    Today I got chatting to Kyle from Biofitness (@biofitness88) who is a health and life coach based in Dundalk, Ireland. We talk about his journey from Glasgow to Australia all the way to the Town and discuss a whole load of topics including NEAT, simulation theory and the drinking culture of Ireland. Plenty of rambling and storytelling going on in this one but the big question is, who’s accent is harder to understand if you’re not from Ireland/Scotland?
