For chef and author Trisha Lewis, boxing is “the best stress-buster”. She started it two years ago and trains with “local lad” Frank.

“OMG, I love it! I wanted something that would increase endorphins. When my trainer says ‘punch the pad’ or ‘jab’ or ‘hook’ or ‘upper-cut’, the only thing I’m thinking of is that moment, that move. It’s almost like mindfulness. It’s a lovely switch-off.”
