AGE… I’m 42 years old & I’ve worked in the fitness industry since I was 21… Occasionally I can feel a bit self conscious about my age. Don’t get me wrong, I know 42 isn’t ‘that old’, however the industry can often be seen as a ‘young persons game’ and it’s easy to allow this to […]

The Tristan Buttle Podcast is now LIVE! I’ve been wanting to launch my own personal podcast for a while now and figured that Lockdown 2.0 was a good time to get on with it! I cannot guarantee it will be the most polished podcast out there, but it will be open, honest, real and helpful. […]

I went to Alton Towers yesterday with Amy and her fam & we LOVED it! However, when it came to jumping on some of rides I don’t mind admitting, I was a ‘bit’ nervous! I mean some of the rides are pretty INTENSE & pretty FAST! Whilst I was convincing myself it would all be […]
Every now & again we all meet someone who has an impact on us… This is Lynne & she was born blind. When it comes to training (and life in general) I can honestly say that she is one the most enthusiastic people I’ve ever met. She loves/lives to exercise & is always up for […]
Total Recall is 30 years old! I remember first watching it as a kid (somebody at school had a dodgy vhs pirate copy from Cyprus), and I’ve loved it ever since! Looking back, the last 30 years have flown by… It’s very cliche to say, but life really does move fast and, the older you […]
I began my career in fitness when I was 21 & I’ve learnt a lot in my 21 years of doing this… I look back at some of the things I used to believe & some of the advice I used to give out and its embarrassing! Training wise I wasted a LOTS of time […]
