13 health checks every man needs
Men's Health Week is almost here, as good a time as any for a trip to your GP. Discover the most important health checks you need to get done

This landmine split switch press fires up your explosive fast-twitch muscle fibres and smokes your shoulders all at once.
The 45- to 60-degree pressing angle develops the often-neglected upper chest area. It’s also easier on the shoulders than a straight overhead press.
Adding the split switch component gets your lower body involved, while developing quickness, stability, and coordination. It’s a fantastic drill if you want to get a serious cardio and metabolic response in a short amount of time.
Try doing as many rounds of 5 to 10 reps per side in 5 to 10 minutes.
