Myself and a bunch of strapping young men from CrossFit East Kilbride are planning on tackling Ben Nevis on the 20th July wearing a 20lbs weighted vest in aid of men’s mental health which is affecting so many young men. 12.5% of men in the uk are currently suffering from mental health issues and 3 out of 4 sucides are men. Its time to break the stigma! More men need to talk, it will save lives
