  • My week training like a Formula 1 driver opened my eyes to the joys of exercise and good eating. Thanks to Pierre Gasly's performance coach Pyry Salmela (@pyry.salmela on Insta) for taking me under his wing and pointing me in the right direction.
    I did a daily session with Pyry Salmela for 4 days and then walked 38 km over the next days at the track. Did I lose any weight? How did I feel afterwards? I'll answer both of these questions in this video and show you how F1 drivers train for reaction time and how they do condition training for their necks.

    Ok, but let's see this guy train as a F1 photographer: carry heavy equipment, trip & fall without breaking any equipment, stay out for hours in the heat and sun, make it through Saudi traffic on time, and fight Avis rental car charges. Then I'll be impressed. 😁
