This is Great British Bosses from Anything but Footy, the podcast where we profile the men and women responsible for running sport in this country, from grassroots participation to those medal moments at Olympic, Paralympic and elite level.In this episode we speak to Huw Edwards who is the CEO of UK Active. They are the body that is responsible for improving the healty of the nation by getting more people more active. In 2020, this aim has never been more important as participation levels in sport dropped dramatically during the first lockdown. This episode was recorded on the first day of the second lockdown and Huw pleads with Government to hear and heed the message UK Active promotes, as he believes the closure of sports and leisure facilities is having a massive detrimental effect on the nation's health and wellbeing. Huw also reflects on his time as part of the team who delivered the London Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2012 and discusses what the true legacy of the event was, especially in light of the global pandemic.

BUILD YOUR DREAM BUSINESS IN 8 WEEKS: https://londonreal.tv/biz/ 2021 SUMMIT TICKETS: https://londonreal.tv/summit/ NEW MASTERCLASS EACH WEEK: http://londonreal.tv/masterclass-yt LATEST EPISODE: https://londonreal.link/latest BRIAN FOR MAYOR: https://BrianForMayor.London/  These are frustrating times for Nick Whitcombe. The owner of Body Tech Fitness Gym and Raw Iron Clothing in Liverpool recently made national headlines after the armed police attended his gym and issued him with a £1,000 fine after refusing to close in response to new lockdown rules. Last week, Liverpool went into Tier 3 as Northern cities like Manchester and Leeds were also hit with similar measures. The impact on Liverpool has meant gyms, bars and restaurants have been forced to close during this two-week period. Since then, Nick has joined forces with several other gyms in Liverpool to stand up against the Government and has remained open. Despite the warnings that fines would double every three hours, Nick continues his stance and has been supported by a GoFundMe page called ‘Save Liverpool’s Gyms’ which has raised over £50,000 and continues to rise. This lockdown has been responsible for contributing to myriad detrimental effects to people’s mental and physical health, with male suicide at an all-time high in London, and exercise has been a release for people during these uncertain times. However, Nick has been keen to keep people mentally and physically active by providing members with a free gym kit, and following all the necessary safety measures on reopening. Yet, laws have prevented people from having the opportunity to access the health & fitness industry, which have also caused stress and anxiety for many entrepreneurs across the country, to which Nick has highlighted the lack of evidence to support the latest measures. From the 22 million gym visits this has only resulted in 78 covid cases as UK gyms account for only 0.38 cases per 100,000 cases according to data from UK Active. Questions have to be asked about the decision-making of this government, and how they are causing more suffering to entrepreneurs and residents of cities across the country.

Today I’m speaking to  Phil Horton, UK Country Director for Miha Bodytec, the leading equipment manufacturer and distributor of Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) training. Phil has worked in the fitness sector for over 20 years, for the likes of Technogym, Spire Healthcare Group and the industry body, UK Active.      For those that don’t already know, what exactly is EMS?  The current EMS landscape across Europe and the world? You were set to have a significant presence at global industry trades shows this year – all of which have been postponed or cancelled. What were the key messages you were hoping to convey at these events? Tell me about the opportunity for PTs? What should a PT do if they are interested in EMS? Does the model change from a mobile PT to a club PT? What are some of your most successful customers doing?   Today's episode is proudly sponsored by  Fitrec Professionals Leading The Way For Fitness Registration In Australia Phil Horton   Country Director UK         ph@miha-bodytec.com www.miha-bodytec.com
