People's champ 💪
The People Champ 🧠📈🏆
I love that Gavin mentioned spending too long talking to the fans.
I was one of the last ones to meet him at the Cardiff show.
The arena staff were speeding us up and told us "photos only" no autographs.
But Gavin still signed for us regardless.
Top guy.
There is a reason WHY he’s one the fan favorites!!!
What a guy 💪
Great, honest interview with a gentleman.
What a journey, he’s cemented his legacy already.
Such a feat to come back and compete after that physical and mental trauma.
Wish him a long healthy life 👍
Thats literally one of the best podcasts ive ever watched, im welsh and live in Wales not far from Gav, was great to catch up with him out in worlds in Myrtle Beach this year, big 2024 ahead 💪💪
It would be really cool to see Gavin reach the top. Potential is there and he embodies the old time circus strongman aura.
English man here and big gav along with the stoltmans are my favourite strongmen. 💪😎👊
Great interview, happy to hear Gav is much healthier and stronger. I do wish him all the very best in strongman comps
Great honest intervie with a gentleman we journey of your channel❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Loved the rugby chat
Legendary service is one of the criteria that sets one company apart from its competitors. It’s the mark of a truly authentic company - you just can’t fake caring!”
Great interview. I was at the show in Glasgow when Gav had the heart attack and he didn't look well, thankfully he was in Glasgow that has a lot of experience in heart problems and the great hospital
A moment of patience in a moment of anger saves a thousand moments of regret.

Social media is here. It’s not going away; not a passing fad. Be where your customers are: in social media.”
Success is a beautiful place and only those who never give up will get the chance to be there.
❤❤❤❤ I truly love your channel keep doing the best work
Big up the welsh brothers 💪
Quality podcast as always Flex. Great to see a another Brit and Celt doing well. I'll love watching Gav succeed and I think that'll be massively helped with a quality mindset coach like Vinny Shoreman and a performance Breathwork coach like Anthony Mullaly (former pro rugby player). The sky is the limit
I might be biased because I’m Welsh and from South Wales but this guy is the best strongman personality ever. Wish him all the very best, want to see him winning Worlds.
Hes up there for sure. Ihe introducera strongman to my wife and her brother. We all root for gav every time he’s on. So you are not wrong my friend.
And, we are Swedish 🍻 cheers mate

What an amazing humble, gentleman 🏴🏴
love rightly we know that the healthy, loving response to cruelty and abuse is putting ourselves out of harm’s way.”
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched
Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”
If you keep your eyes, mind, and heart open ……. love, kindness and wisdom will enter.
The best revenge is happiness, b’coz nothing drives people more crazy then seeing someone actually having a good life.
For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”
The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart.
Jealousy comes from counting others blessings instead of our own.
I'm an even bigger fan now!! 🙏 Much respect Gavin!!!
💯💯💯
We agree ❤❤❤
Respect to this man. And no offense, but I was today years old, when I learned he is actually a bit younger than me. Thought for years this man could almost be my father and maybe competes as long as Brian Shaw. I think main reason is the mustache. ^^

Don’t make friends who are comfortable to be with. Make friends who will force you to lever yourself up.
Talking about your problems is our greatest addiction. Break the habit. Talk about your joys.
Why are we here, that is the question? And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in this immense confusion one thing alone is clear.

Awesome character of the sport, but I fear the sport has moved passed people of Gav's physical composition, he's definitely still improving but Mitch Hooper is to me the Evolution of the sport, he has Brian Shaws brain and probably better, Martins Licis versatility , Oleksis' adaptability, Mateus Kiloskowski's motion power and enough deadlift grunt to make JF take notice. The guy is going to be hard to beat for anyone.

They ignore you now but they will need you later, thats life.
Sometimes the only thing that people see is what you did. When in fact, they should be looking at why you did it.
until you become completely obsessed with your mission, no one will take you seriously. Until the world understands that you’re not going away-that you are 100
