   #6 - Mark Hammond - Preacher of Pain, 40 Years in the fitness industry

   SUBSCRIBE BELOW TO LISTEN! https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/jamestaylor3011/subscribe In this deeply moving episode of the JT: Mind & Body Balance Podcast, I sit down with Mark Hammond, a personal trainer, gym owner, and motivational speaker whose journey embodies resilience, growth, and balance. Mark opens up about one of the most challenging chapters of his life — the loss of his son, Tommy — and the emotional process of rebuilding after tragedy. With honesty and vulnerability, he shares how grief shaped his outlook on life, guided his work in the fitness world, and inspired him to help others find their own strength through adversity. Together, myself and Mark explore his path from teenage athlete to respected fitness professional, the lessons learned from building his gym in Bristol, and his partnership with FKPro. Mark also discusses how he navigated recent challenges, including a health scare involving his partner, Holly, and how he continues to stay grounded and motivated through it all. The conversation delves into themes of purpose, perseverance, and emotional balance — offering valuable insight for anyone striving to grow through life’s hardest moments. To close, I lead Mark through a reflective Tarot reading, bringing the episode full circle as they explore what balance and healing truly mean in both life and work. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that strength is not found in avoiding pain, but in the courage to rise, rebuild, and keep moving forward with intention. As always I hope you enjoy it as much as me. JT
