#21 - Andy Torbet on being fit for adventure and racing a peregrine falcon in a sky dive
Manage episode 330334694 series 3143286
Today’s is a very special episode.
We have Andy Torbet as a guest in the HY3RID podcast den….a privilege and experience that no-one else has yet experienced.
Andy is a real-life action man…sky diving, cave diving, tv presenting, stunt manning.
One of Andy’s interesting facts is that he once raced a peregrine falcon in a sky dive. The only way he could win this was to strap rockets to himself to propel himself faster.
In this episode we discuss Andy’s training history, his extensive injury list and how he manages his training and work around them.
Andy needs to be able to get up and perform in his job every day, one day it could be hiking 20 miles with kit to get to a place to dive the next day. If he is constantly beaten up from training, he can’t do his job. We talk through what “fit for adventure” means and looks like in a practical sense to Andy.
