At last! We’ve all worked it out with the snow and spring is knocking on our doors. This is vital prep time – summer’s around the corner and you’ll soon be on a beach somewhere, chowing down on a lolli-chop in your swimming costume.

There ain’t no place to hide in a bikini or speedos – they’re pretty much body cling-wrap.

Don’t be that gross schmuck on the beach that everyone’s pointin’ and whisperin’ about. Call Gym Box and get yourself Venice beach ready with the Pillar today

I want you all to know this man. Everyone needs a Mr. Miagi. He is mine, and a part of him is in everything I do. Goes by the name of Larry Yelden, and is a king amongst big men in Venice Beach. He worked me out and I will never forget it. Larry, I hope I have made you proud. I love you man.  You made the Pillar that so many have leaned on. See you soon. X

This is Benny, he has been doing this for years!!! After a few drinks one night, Benny convinced me to have a go, saying it was easy.

I couldn’t stand for three weeks, and had a surprising amount of glass stuck in my foot. One piece is still lodged to this day.

Me and Benny really laugh about it now though. Classic Benny.

Everyone should have a Tree Hugging friend
