It was when my American coach Dan Pfaff came over from the States in 2009 and started working with me that we really began to look at my diet. He decided I was eating too many carbohydrates, so I cut back on bread. Over the next year I lost weight and became leaner.

I have been in discussions with the BBC regarding my involvement with SPOTY after hearing what I believe to be very outdated and derogatory comments from a fellow SPOTY nominee.

- Nov 07, 2020
For a long time, I thought I'd be a physio if I wasn't a sportsman. At one point, I wanted to be an inventor, and I'd come up with little schemes.
- Me

- Nov 07, 2020
Me and my brother just used to fight all the time; then my sister came along, and it was all about the little girl in the house. We'd always eat dinner together as a family.

I'm a very keen baker; I pride myself on my cakes. I go along the classic sponge line, but I like to jazz it up: I've made some psychedelic birthday cakes.

I train six days a week.
- Day
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always start the day with a protein shake: protein powder mixed with water, peanut butter, and yoghurt to thicken it up.
- Progress
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Jumping isn't as important to my training as you might think; I'm only in the sandpit once a week. There's a high risk factor of injury doing it, so instead, I rely on my progress in the gym to judge how far I'll jump on the big day.
- Hill

Running up a steep hill or up steps are fantastic ways of building explosive strength.
- Seeds
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I eat a lot of vegetables and salad. I put strawberries, pomegranate seeds, blackberries, and blueberries into shakes and add Greek yoghurt for a snack. I have this when I'm not training.
- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Fruit is carb-based, and I limit carbs when training hard.
- Fish
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I take magnesium to prevent cramps. A few years back, I suffered from hamstring tears, and part of that can be to do with muscle cramping, and then pushing the muscle at that point. I also take a fish oil supplement.
- Endurance
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The DNA showed I have a level of endurance in me which I never really realised, which makes sense.
- Band
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My favourite series of all time has been 'Band of Brothers.' That was amazing; I've watched that so many times.
- History
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm a bit of a history goon, and I love all that. Anything that's medieval-based up until, probably, the Tudor period and just after, I'm quite into.
- Arguably

- Nov 07, 2020
Even though arguably I could have done much better at school, I'd decided at a young age that I was going to be a professional sportsman at some sport. And at that stage, there was a bit of luck: I was fortunate to meet the right people at the right time to get me to where I am now.
