Why did i get into Gym Cross Training?

It is the ultimate test of fitness in my opinion. You are tested in every aspect of fitness if you haven't properly prepared you get found out!! (trust me)

Why world gym challenge?

I like the vision and what it stands for.

Proudest achievement:

Former Royal Marines Commando

Sporting achievements :

Scottish indoor lightweight rowing champ,
Various cross country titles, 10k + 5k road races
Team events : runners up in the swamp soccer world cup,
3 peaks challenge for a good friends charity (super mandy)

Fav food:

Chicken fajitas !!

Favourite restaurant:

YEN Tepanyaki in Glasgow - if I could afford it I would eat there every night.

Training:

I never do the same session twice but I do certain exercises to asses progress for confirmation that my routines are working. My training is split between the gym and running/cycling outdoors. If you don't set goals you will never achieve them and if you do, you wont know that you have, ha

Quotes:

The body only stops when the mind tells it to (by me)

Fav film:

The Hangover

What advice would you give to anyone who is thinking about trying world gym challenge: Train specifically to the events but be prepared to enjoy your training again because the variety keeps it interesting and the challenge keeps you motivated
