With the recent defence of his Commonwealth cruiserweight boxing title, Chris Billam-Smith is a man who has known both the ecstatic highs that come from mastering his craft, and the pain of defeat on the long road to the top. His incredible professional boxing record is a testament to the resilience he’s built through complete commitment to the sport, and the mental strength required to overcome injury and losses at amateur level.

In this insightful episode of Extrology, Lee Cooper discovers Chris’ ethos when it comes to the psychology of sport, training the body right, and the importance of failure in achieving success at the highest level.

Lee and Chris discuss:

• Overcoming injuries and setbacks
• Maximising the chance of success
• Using failure as a motivation
• Consistency and constant improvement
• The importance of incremental goal-setting
• Dealing with the fear of failure
• The role of mental strength in a highly physical sport
