On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, Ivan and I decide to put Ed Pilkington under the spotlight, where we ask questions about his upbringing, his early years in sports coaching, the differences in passion projects and careers, and why and how he lives and breathes our mantra: the physical is the vehicle.
