Today, we closed the doors of Fighting Fit Gym… 😢

It’s hard to put into words what this place has meant—not just to me, but to every single person who walked through those doors. This wasn’t just a gym. It was a home. A release. A battleground. A family.

You never truly know what’s around the corner in this life. But I’ve always believed in fate—that everything happens for a reason, even when it’s hard to understand in the moment. 🙏

This isn’t the end… it’s simply the start of the next chapter.

No matter what comes next, one thing will never change—I’ll always give my best to make a positive impact in this world. That’s what Fighting Fit stood for, and that’s what I’ll carry forward every single day.

To everyone who trained, laughed, struggled, and grew with us… thank you. You made this place what it was. The atmosphere, the energy, the community—that was YOU.

I’ll miss you all more than words can say… but I’ll treasure these memories forever. ❤️💖🙏

This isn’t goodbye… it’s simply see you soon.

Stay strong. Stay Fighting Fit. Xx

Happy Easter Everyone 🐰🐣❤️

This is my second to last post on here before I shut down this page 😢

I have done many mad challenges over the years… from a Mile of Burpees, Marathon on the Ski Erg, Scammonden Reservoir Steps Challenge, World’s Toughest Mile to epic bike rides and much more.

Yes, mainly to raise money for charities, to challenge myself physically and mentally—but also because I wanted people to remember my name for the right reasons 💯🙏

I have never claimed to be the fastest, strongest or fittest… but I know I am one of the most determined, with heart and willpower way above the average man!!

Perseverance be my middle name 💪

I will miss all the members of Fighting Fit Gym, the community and believe it or not… the mad challenges. But I’m 51 next week, and I’ve done more than most—so I’m content now… and it might be time to get the pipe and slippers out!! 😉🤣😂

But before I go… remember this—
It’s not about being the best. It’s about showing up when it’s hard.
Its not about being the best. It’s about showing up when it’s hard.
It’s about pushing when others quit.
It’s about heart, grit, and never giving in.

That’s what Fighting Fit has always stood for.

Thank you to every single one of you who’s been part of the journey. The memories, the sweat, the laughs… I’ll carry them with me forever ❤️

Stay strong. Stay Fighting Fit. This isn’t goodbye… it’s just the next chapter. 💯🔥

An appreciation post to everyone who’s been there for me over the last few weeks 🙏

The messages, the support, and especially yesterday… you know who you are ✨💯

It’s meant more than you probably realise.

I’m enjoying the new job so far… 2026 has been a challenging year, but what’s new eh!! Life has a funny way of working itself out.

When I was younger and boxing, I genuinely believed I’d go professional, win a British title, make a few quid and be on Sky… then a car crash and a haematoma in my left eye put an end to those plans.

I loved travelling the world with Shelley… then MS came along and changed that path too 😢

And I always thought I’d be running Fighting Fit Gym well into my sixties…

But you know what — we had a good innings and met some absolutely amazing people along the way 🙏

Me & Shelley have learned two things in this life:
NEVER take things for granted
ALWAYS be prepared to adapt 💪👊💯

Because at the end of the day… as long as I’ve got Shelley and Barney in my life, I’ll be alright. 👍🙂

END OF AN ERA ❤️💯

As this chapter closes, I just want to say a massive THANK YOU to every single person who has walked through the doors of Fighting Fit Gym over the years.

What a journey it’s been.

From incredible weight loss transformations…
To stepping into the ring for boxing contests…
To building confidence, strength and self-belief…
To competing in races and events you once thought were impossible 💪🔥

I’d like to think I’ve helped a lot of people along the way. But the truth is — you’ve helped me just as much.

What I’m most proud of isn’t trophies or personal achievements… it’s the positive impact we’ve made together and the community we built at Fighting Fit Gym. That means more to me than anything. 💕💯

I’m going to miss you all more than you know 😢
But nothing lasts forever…

This isn’t the last chapter — it’s simply the start of a new one. A new adventure begins 🙏🔥

Watch this space…

First walk together of January 🙏
Nothing fancy… just around Twiggeries and the cemetery.
No rain. Fresh air. Time together.
I’ll take that daily win 💯
This is why I get up early.
Why I still push myself to my limits.
Why I keep training, working hard & staying honest.
Why I focus every single day on becoming the best version of myself 💪
Find your WHY in life.
These two are my WHY ❤️
And because of that, I’ve already won in this life.
I will never give up — persistence is my middle name 👊
Life is a fight.
You’ll have bad rounds and good rounds…
But I’m always up for the fight 🥊
When you truly find your WHY,
Even through the toughest times,
Things become clearer.
Things become easier.
Keep fighting. Keep moving forward. Always 👊🔥



💪🔥
