  Strength Training without...

  Bodyweight training, often referred to as calisthenics, is a form of strength training that utilizes your body’s weight to build muscle, endurance, and overall fitness. Unlike traditional weightlifting, where external weights like dumbbells or barbells are used, bodyweight exercises require no equipment and can be done virtually anywhere. This makes it an accessible and versatile option for anyone looking to improve their physical strength and muscle tone without the need for a gym membership or specialized equipment. 
  The benefits of bodyweight training extend far beyond convenience. For one, it allows for a wide range of exercises targeting every major muscle group. By manipulating the angle, speed, and range of motion of each movement, you can create a workout that challenges your muscles in different ways, promoting growth and strength. Additionally, bodyweight exercises tend to focus on functional movements, improving overall mobility, flexibility, and coordination. This approach enhances not only muscle size but also the way you move in everyday life. 
  Many people have misconceptions about bodyweight training, thinking it’s only suitable for beginners or that it can’t build significant muscle mass. While it’s true that bodyweight exercises can be a great starting point for those new to fitness, they also provide enough variety and intensity to continue challenging more advanced athletes. As with any strength training regimen, the key to progress is progressive overload. By gradually increasing the difficulty of exercises—whether through more repetitions, slower movements, or more advanced variations—you can continuously stimulate muscle growth and strength development.

  Reloaded – The Good The Bad &...

  The Highs. The Heartbreaks. The Hangovers. 
  The Personal. The Vulnerable. The Downright Absurd. 
  IT'S TIME TO RELOAD.  
  As was widely predicted, our first book, The Good, The Bad & The Rugby – Unleashed, did not win a Pulitzer Prize. It did, however, scoop Sports Entertainment Book of the Year at the 2025 Charles Tyrwhitt Sports Book Awards (and sold quite a lot of copies), so here we are again, back for a sequel. 
  What more have we to say? It’s a fair question. Hask can mine more new material from a trip to the supermarket than most people can from an entire lifetime – and you won’t be surprised to learn that he hasn’t just been hanging around Asda since our last book came out. He recently turned 40, he’s been through much personal turmoil, he’s done an awful lot of DJing – and he’s had a lot of arguments. Expect much of that, and even some thoughts on rugby, in the following pages. 
  As for Tins, you’ll find out about his early days in rugby, how he had to fight to make it, what he thinks of the state of the game, and his plans to get it back on track. Meanwhile, Alex will tell you all about his career in broadcasting, from making (‘disgusting’) tea and coffee, and presenting some of the greatest rugby matches in history, to getting binned by Sky. 
  We should end by begging you to pardon our previous flippancy. It was, of course, lovely to win that award, as well as very surprising. In fact, The Good, The Bad & The Rugby will never stop surprising us, and its continuing success is largely down to you – our wonderful listeners, viewers and now readers. We do hope you enjoy what follows and that you keep coming back for more. 
  Winners of the Charles Tyrwhitt Sports Book Awards 2025 Sports Entertainment Book of the Year, for their previous book The Good, The Bad and The Rugby – Unleashed. 
  In this non-fiction sequel, Haskell continues to share his humorous memoirs, diving deeper into his personal turmoil and his journey into the world of DJing. His candid revelations, coupled with Tins insights into the state of rugby and Alex's broadcasting career, make this an up-coming bestseller. 
  For fans of Rachel Murphy (Loose Head), Luke Upton (Hard Men of Rugby), Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer), and Jonny Wilkinson (Jonny).
