In this episode, our host Peter is joined by former professional Mixed Martial Arts fighter Andy Murphy. Andy has traded the gloves for life as a successful boutique gym owner, owning Urban Gym in Wexford and also a great family man. Andy has fought and trained all over the world and has rubbed shoulders with the best of the best in the Mixed Martial Arts world.
The more serious aspect of the conversation was a powerful piece, where Andy takes us from the routine training session all the way through what would ensue for the following two years. Andy was suffering with an undiagnosed brain injury and he takes us on the journey through the good and the bad. We speak about the symptoms, scan delays, process with the Neurologist and his recovery to where he is today.
We also talk about the fighting and the mindset needed and also he gives us his experience of starting a small gym which has grown into a huge community.
I really hope you enjoy the show and please share it with someone who may be dealing with something similar. Below is links to articles Andy has written and we eluded to in the show and also his gym website.
Thank you,
Pete & Abby
