Craig Pead - pro football to fitness coach and business man

It was great to catch up with Craig Pead who is a former professional footballer who played for Coventry City, Brentford, Walsall and England at youth level. We spoke about his football career which was cut short through injury, his time at the F.A National School (Lilleshall) and playing for England U18's and 19's with the likes of Joe Cole and Michael Carrick. It was interesting listening to Craig talk about how he transitioned out of football by trying many different career paths when he retired, and although he didn't enjoyed them he enhanced his transferable skills which he carried in to what he is currently doing now. Craig is now a fitness coach where he helps people not only transfer their bodies but their minds too. He's also in the process of launching an athlete management company which deals with player care both on and off the field. Hope you enjoy. is transferable skills which he carried in to what he is currently doing now. Craig is now a fitness coach where he helps people not only transfer their bodies but their minds too.
