I quit drinking 5 years ago. I was throwing the stuff down my neck at a ridiculous, life shortening rate. I did 20 years with HMPS and realised that the drinking culture combined with PTSD was taking me down with it. I did the Macmillan 'Sober in October' challenge and just kept going. I thought I was going to die - the headaches and shits lasted for about 2 months but I kept with it. I watched motivational stuff and read books by Foxy and Mark Billingham. I'm still sober and feel so much better.
Currently 26 years old and I'm suffering from social anxiety. Fitness I think will be my way out of it, even just getting back on track and hearing Ramsays words here have really helped. A big thank you and hope everyone here is doing well, we're all on our own journeys. Be strong brothers 💪
Hey 😊 think about what you're thinking about ... work your way towards more positive thinking, especially towards yourself. You are an amazing human!! You're going to be fine 😊😊
Gordon completely hits the nail on the head in regards to responsibility, regardless if it's substance abuse or mental illness, when you are responsible for other people wether it be family or members of staff, Gordon's frame of mind is exactly the way my mum and dad instilled in me, you have made or built a position where you are responsible for other people, families and if you are struggling then you 110% have to be honest regardless of the consequences, you must be honest to the people who rely on you to survive, Gordon is an absolute inspiration as a Scottish entrepreneur and self employed individual he has inspired me to stay strong and helped me get through some of the darkest times in my life 🙏
Over my years of training I have always struggled with addiction (I will always be an addict) and have met ALOT of people who have a similar past. At 38 now that drive that addiction gave me to keep indulging is now my drive to get out and train. Never too late to make that change.
I have to get up for work at 3:30am, but i get up an hour earlier and hit gym before i start every day monday to friday. Its not hard, im excited to start my day like that. I could go after work, but thats less time with my family. Im 37, you and healthier and fitter than ive ever been!
When he said that he couldn’t focus on fitness in his 40s because he was 100% focused on his career and getting to the top, I realised just how much of a perfectionist he is. To find something that you are that passionate about is honestly beautiful.
I worked in pub kitchens from 15-17 and at that age being around full time drinkers it really put me off being a chef. I went into the trades and karate. Now I'm 43, i teach Japanese mma, karate and help run a maintenance company. Getting out of washing dishes and cutting vegetables was the best thing I ever did 👍
I’m just turned 66 and had a very near life ending motorcycle accident-prior to this I did a 60 minute exercise bike beasting session- I’m now just short of 16 weeks post accident and shuffling 1.5 miles around my house Recovering from a motorcycle accident takes incredible strength, patience, and resilience, and every step I take is a testament to that power within me. Each day that I push a little further, each step that I add, is a reminder that my spirit is stronger than any setback. The road to recovery may not be quick or easy, but every small milestone is a victory, bringing me closer to a life of renewed strength and freedom. I need to have the courage it takes to face the challenges head-on, and let every step forward fuel my determination to keep going. I’m building back, step by step, and proving to myself that I can overcome even the toughest of trials. I will stay committed, stay focused, and trust that I am making incredible progress with every stride.
Foxy is special forces so of course he is a beast. But i have watched a lot of Gordon doing triathlons, swimming and he even done the Royal Marines assault course and done training with the US marines. Gordon is certified bad ass.🙏
It cannot be easy of who these guys are and the mental they put them selves through on a pro rata basis. We all hit the point of break down at some part in our lives - and obstacles are real.
Gordons son is a RM commando. That's an achievement. Him and his wife seem to have instilled good work ethics and values in their children. Unlike the Beckhams...
So what, Gordon went the other way and made his money. Gordon's got balls watch Gordon on cocaine. He travelled to places most men wouldn't even foxy went same places and was wary.
@@ThomasSelwaySo is Foxy now or do you think SAS: Who Dares Wins isn’t a reality tv show? Gordon is a highly rated chef. Do you know the time, effort, dedication and talent it takes to reach the top of any profession?
I tell you the craziest thing about this... Men talking about health in a Men's Health piece. Hopefully they're actually listening to the customers now.
A message to the people that can’t control their drink and put everyone in the same category. Most of us can drink in moderation and it not be a problem. Just because you have an addictive personality, it doesn’t mean the rest of us have.
It's not possible for everyone and you need talant and awareness and ability. I have his book signed which is excellent. Huge fan of his shows. He's 100% entirely right about the gratitude on his shows being completely underwhelming.
@@davidlynch9049 Not everyone can work as a chef. It takes talent, ability and luck with press recognition and constant customers. Most businesses fail. Not everyone knows how the techniques are for prep. It's not about working your arse off it's a number of factors. I know someone who run the best cheese steak restaurant in the states, my Italian mate went around Philly too, came back to me & said this place was better, but it bleeds money & it failed. I have Di George's syndrome and a high arch on my foot and it's impossible for me to be a chef. I'm Dyspraxic so I suffer with coordination issues. Not everyone can do it.
Complex trauma leads to addiction. One brother becomes addicted to pressure, success, physical training and fame. One becomes addicted to Cocaine, Heroin and booze. Both do it to ease the pain, but one journey is adaptive, the other maladaptive. How long until we understand that trauma is the root cause of addiction, and that addiction is just a coping mechanism. Moving from judgement to curiosity must be the path to empathy and helping others.
@@RickC-oo1hm yeah but you're ex RM ie always been fit. Ramsey was fat and drank a lot most of his life, as well as other substances. You can't just flip that in your late 30s/early 40s, work 12 hours a day while eating as little as his does and have that energy at almost 60. No way.
What’s the point in working yourself that hard. Millionaire many multiple times over. Hasn’t got time for more than 30mins a day training. When is enough enough. It’s only money.
It's not about the money, as he mentioned. It's about that drive to just keep growing (as in developing), first as a chef himself and then teaching and being able to give back.
It kinda sad that this is being pushed as good mental health, I get it that someone staying away from drugs and alcohol and exercising regularly is very possitive but It looks like gordon has fallen into a trap fuelled by fear, and an inability to take a break. There is nothing healthy about over working yourself and running away from your fears, he said his ability to heal quickly was was because he trains hard but training hard was the very thing that got him injured, I do agree with him that being fit and healthy wil help you heal but he is ignoring the fact that pushing himself too hard at an old age put him there in the first place.
That's a Thru Dark tee. I didn't rate their gear when I bought some a few years back. It was badly sized and pretty cheaply made. Their customer service was awful too.
It's not easy to motivate your self some times especially when you have a real health concern and some really bad fucking luck and everything knocks you back continuously starting back exercising doing everything right and still your body just fails and lays you up for weeks and all you want to do is go for a run or go to the gym just doing what you can when can be so frustrating. It's OK for people like Gordon with all the money in the world to get the best Dr's and physiotherapy ect but for the normal people out there. you get fuck all and have to do it all your self. There the people you would listen to that's the stories I want to here about how they managed it what they did.
One there's no such thing as "clean eating" which is an idea that promotes eating disorders and two he's been cooking food like that for twenty years now.
Even though he definitely doesn’t need the money. Hope he sued the council. Councils need to learn, neglect is not on and can cause injury or death at the worst. We have to be responsible for the fitness and road worthy condition of the vehicle and it should be the same for the road. Unfit road then fines like we’d be fined for unfit vehicle.
I can not express from being super fit to falling off the wagon and being super fit again. Absolutely essential people get themselves fit. You don't need to be the best. Just strive for improvement and find what you enjoy.
These two blokes are obsessive, driven individuals. I'm not saying that that is a bad thing, it's just not even the slightest approximation of my own personality. I am just pleased I am not like them; it would be so exhausting. I'm in the middle of painting my kitchen cabinets and have stopped for a well-deserved Brewdog IPA. As long as I've finished by Christmas, all is good. I am so easily pleased by life.

Gordon has always had an incredible energy level and drive. He's kept himself fit and it proves even at his age you can keep on top of your game
Two absolute beasts who as a man in my 40’s, I don’t dread getting older looking at these. Still out there slinging.
Foxy seems a great fella, always liked him
Old school gent for sure
I’ll second that 👍
Foxy is a good interviewer, doesn't interrupt

Do it . Don't think ,just do
That was a bloody great interview. Two top blokes just chatting. Ghandis flip flops, brilliant.
Well it should of been ramsay asking more questions to Jason..these should guys are next level
Foxy is always a legend. Absolute UNIT too

These are the sorts of blokes young lads should look up to.
Brilliant stuff. As a 60 year old guy who has been through serious health issues in recent years, this is inspiring. Well done both.
I have to get up for work at 3:30am, but i get up an hour earlier and hit gym before i start every day monday to friday. Its not hard, im excited to start my day like that. I could go after work, but thats less time with my family. Im 37, you and healthier and fitter than ive ever been!

You need to give it to Gordon he works very hard….. the stress of he’s status not anyone can do it. He’s definitely strong minded
I worked in pub kitchens from 15-17 and at that age being around full time drinkers it really put me off being a chef.
I went into the trades and karate.
Now I'm 43, i teach Japanese mma, karate and help run a maintenance company.
Getting out of washing dishes and cutting vegetables was the best thing I ever did 👍
Japanese MMA sounds interesting
@@MarstonRobinson its just mma hes trying to sound like the big fella
I need to change career somehow. I'm a chef but I'm 28
That was excellent. There's a mutual respect between these two.

You've just changed my life forever.. thank u
Foxy is a great interviewer!
‘Michelin stars coming out my ass’ Absolutely love Gordon 😂
Love both these Guys!! Off to see Foxy on his Tour end of Jan! Can’t wait!! Love all this Positive Mental Attitude it keeps me going!
Something about Ramsay that just motivates me like nobody else, his drive is so infectious. He just makes me want to work and succeed!!!
Foxy is special forces so of course he is a beast. But i have watched a lot of Gordon doing triathlons, swimming and he even done the Royal Marines assault course and done training with the US marines. Gordon is certified bad ass.🙏
Multiple marathons
Brutality honest Ramsey. All respect. What an amazing guy. This man lives in the real world.
Never imagined these two together
This is a great watch being an older trainer.
It cannot be easy of who these guys are and the mental they put them selves through on a pro rata basis.
We all hit the point of break down at some part in our lives - and obstacles are real.
Love these two. Foxy I love the t shirt I’m now ordering a couple. Great interview Thankyou chaps.
Brilliant conversation with two great guys - thanks
These guys are both so motivational.
Gordons son is a RM commando. That's an achievement. Him and his wife seem to have instilled good work ethics and values in their children. Unlike the Beckhams...
Once a month i pick brecons hike and go for a mini adventure
Highly recommend, find a hiking buddy who is regularly up for the same thing 👍
Foxy is a hardcore service man and Ramsey is a reality tv star
So what, Gordon went the other way and made his money. Gordon's got balls watch Gordon on cocaine. He travelled to places most men wouldn't even foxy went same places and was wary.
@ can’t really compare a tv chef to sas
@@ThomasSelway He's SBS, i'm not comparing them, just find it funny you all think Gordon is some melt.
@ he is a reality tv star
@@ThomasSelwaySo is Foxy now or do you think SAS: Who Dares Wins isn’t a reality tv show?
Gordon is a highly rated chef. Do you know the time, effort, dedication and talent it takes to reach the top of any profession?
Nice interview Jason good job. Two good fellow. All the best Brett.
This the most unintentionally funny interview I've ever seen
Oh no, not more BRUTAL HONESTY!! I can’t take any more BRUTAL HONESTY🤦♂️🤦♂️
Innit Lee.
I tell you the craziest thing about this...
Men talking about health in a Men's Health piece.
Hopefully they're actually listening to the customers now.
Really honest. Great and Inspirational interview
Enjoyed this interview .✊️🧠💪🏾 58 and its true
Wow what a fantastic interview guys well done
Absolutely brilliant.
Hate him or love him, Gordon has made his own living he didn't have to go out with rifles being commando.
Excellent interview !
Very good interview. 💪🏼
Big up these two 👊🏻
2 people id never have thought to put together in an interview
Totally admire both these guys🤙🏻
Two great men
Great interview two top lads
Look after yourself and you can look after others.
Keep going , 61 years old, love a drink but love to exercise more 😃
Great chat between two great people.
Great insight what you can do if you put your mind to it. With drive and determination
Two legends rite there
Excellent content ❤

Ramsay started in kitchens when he was a teenager. Do you think he thought about talent? No. He simply worked his arse off and learned. You can too.

If you have the resources to take back every minute of your life and you still fear boredom, then you've not cultivated your mind in the right way
That is a very interesting point. I think singularly focused people may lack imagination as a result. I know what I would do.
Brilliant 👌
Today I sat around and ate Pringles and tiramisu. 💪
I love this honest chat between these 2 great guys. Lots for this 58 yo chick to learn 👍😊💥
No one talks about TRT
Yeah, no way at 57 is he able to do all that without chemical help. Don’t care what anyone says.
Not true, I'm also 57, ex RM, work shifts, still train to the max.
@@RickC-oo1hm yeah but you're ex RM ie always been fit. Ramsey was fat and drank a lot most of his life, as well as other substances. You can't just flip that in your late 30s/early 40s, work 12 hours a day while eating as little as his does and have that energy at almost 60. No way.

Foxys nike trainers are mint.
Not gonna lie, Foxy nailed that
Gordon's basically describing getting away from his kids haha.
Gordon is being a little disingenuous there. He neglects to mention, when he has two bites of a meal, that his fork is the size of a shovel.
Haven't even started watching. Two fu*king beasts man.
Apex on Apex or something.
Dont compqre ramsay to Jason..special forces are next level
I think both of these are on TRT
Foxy is the GOAT
Foxy's huge.
mm, must try boiled chicken!
