Paul Faulder is an enemy of cardio. “It’s a hangover from the Eighties,” he says. “Cardio is dull as anything. I get bored out of my mind. For me, strength training feels like I’m building something that’s going to last – whereas doing cardio just feels like burning fuel.”
Some might find running appealingly meditative but for Faulder, there is nothing more mindful than perfecting the art of the incline dumbbell press.
