This week i welcomed Lee Adams from the WALK AND TALK MMH foundation. Lee is doing some incredible work with men's mental health and his group was set up to bring football fans together, by walking to and from different football stadiums with fans of all clubs. Lee talks openly of his struggles in the past with alcohol and depression and how he spent time in a psychiatric unit. Lee knew he had to make some changes and do something positive, so he decided to do a 40 mile walk from Craven Cottage ( Fulham F.C) to The Madejski Stadium ( Reading F.C) when the 2 teams played each other. He had a great response from this challenge and has proceeded to complete many more walks and bike rides since. WALK AND TALK MMH has welcomed 547 walkers since it first started with 152 days of walking completed. It's truly amazing the work Lee is doing to bring men together to talk about Mental health. If you'd like to found out more about the work Lee is doing and maybe even join him for a walk one day then you can find him here : https://www.walkandtalkmmh.co.uk/ Twitter- @WalkAndTalkMMH Facebook-WalkAndTalkMMH Instagram- walkandtalk_mmh Youtube- WalkAndTalk MMH #mensmentalhealth #walkandtalk #football #fulham #palace #reading #celtic #chesterfield #nottscounty #footballwalkandtalk #suicideprevention #mentalhealthmatters

Liam describes his though process around the physical sessions he planned with a mix of boxing and fitness and Jay covers what he talked to the guys about around the mental side of boxing and mental health in general.
Motivation was the first topic covered in the mental side of the first session and we explained the two types of motivation Intrinsic and Extrinsic. We then asked the guys the question " What is your why?" We discuss this in detail in this episode and how learning the fundamentals of boxing is vital to progress.
