So far, 2025 has been an excellent year of articles for me. I’ve enjoyed seeing my name in print (and on screens of various sizes) for a selection of excellent publications – with more to come! Perhaps the most notable is my debut article in Men’s Health magazine, published in the May edition. In this…
Happy new year! Over Christmas, I was discussing my website with a fellow writer. Smugly, I told them that I manage to update it quite regularly. That’s when I looked to discover it had actually been over six months since the last update. Awkward… So, welcome to the next installment of ‘What’s happening with Chris’….
It gives me great pleasure to announce that my most recent Swansea City book, Match of My Life, is receiving a brand-new edition for 2024! After the original printing of Swansea City Match of My Life sold out last year, the book is set to be released as a paperback in August 2024. It will…
I’m pleased to announce that I have once again been published in Men’s Fitness magazine, as the lead article in the May 2024 edition. Earlier in the year, I put myself through an eight-week experiment. I tested whether I could save time by working out like legendary bodybuilder Mike Mentzer. For the uninitiated, Mentzer is…

Festive, but strange. Anyway, after a quieter end to last year, I am back working on some new projects, which I’ll…
How do you become a firefighter? Strangely, for a writer such as myself, I can actually give you a very good insight… In 2021, I decided to apply to become a wholetime firefighter with my local fire and rescue service (wholetime basically means full-time, or not a volunteer). I wrote an article about my experience…
At the end of May this year, I decided to travel to Bordeaux, for one main reason: WINE! 
Well, actually I was there for a stag trip to celebrate the upcoming marriage of my good friend Steve. So, if you want to get technical, I was there for Steve and wine. Now, I know…
After enjoying producing the Planet Health podcast for more than six months, I have finally created a dedicated Planet Health website. It’s the new home for all things Planet Health, including podcast updates, articles and reviews. Planet Health is my way of exploring the world in search of different nutrition and wellbeing traditions to see…
“Turf Games Winter Festival? Nope.” Of course, I was fooling nobody. Six months later, following my adventures at Ealing Trailfinders Rugby Club at Turf Games Summer Festival, I was off to Farnborough for the Winter Festival in February 2023. Yep, a glutton for punishment. Once again, I’ve decided to share a few of my thoughts…
This week, I have been guest podcasting on a very respected vegan podcast – Simply Vegan! You may already know about my own podcast called Planet Health, which explores health and wellbeing traditions from around the world and what we can learn from them. However, this is the first time I have guest starred on…
