Senior Fitness Podcast

Paul Merson’s football career brought trophies, fame, and life at the very top of the game — but behind it came battles with addiction, mental health, and finding purpose beyond football. In this episode, the Arsenal and England legend reflects on recovery, family life, fitness, aging, and the lessons he’s learned through decades in and out of the spotlight. From old-school football stories and dressing room culture to living in the moment and rebuilding life one day at a time, this is a deeply honest conversation on perspective, resilience, and what really matters.

Trevor Smith didn’t start his fitness journey with a podium finish — it started with a wake-up call from a wedding photo. In this episode, Trevor shares how he rebuilt his health, lost weight, and went from feeling unfit at 60 to competing in HYROX World Championships. From mindset shifts and morning routines to accountability, nutrition, recovery, and longevity, this is a conversation on staying competitive, building sustainable habits, and redefining what aging well can look like.
