60 Second Interview: Mark Twight (Gym Jones)

DateSaturday, October 23, 2010 at 20:56 | by AuthorDarryl Edwards

 60 Second Interview: Mark Twight (Gym Jones)

Who are you?

Mark Twight.  Founder of Gym Jones.  A searcher, I want to learn how to do things.  I put everything into climbing, the gym and now road biking.

What is fitness to you?

The ability to do a task.  The task has to be defined.  Personally, right now it is the economy and efficiency of working between 20 minutes and 10 hours.

What are your goals?

To learn and to improve.

What is one of your main concerns in relation to public health?

Obesity.  An unwillingness to work hard.   This is across the board.  Not just in health but everywhere.  People want the result without the work.  There has to be some work for any outcome.

What is your favourite meal?
 
Spinach salad.

What is your favourite exercise/activity?
 
Riding my bike (it's also my least favourite activity).
