Lewis Hits The Gym

Adrian Lewis has turned to the first lady of boxing to end his reign as a heavyweight champion.
The English ace retained his Ladbrokes PDC darts world title with a 7-3 triumph against Andy Hamilton on Monday.
But Lewis isn’t resting on his laurels and has hired former female boxing champ Jane Couch as his fitness coach.
The 26-year-old, who weighs around 20st, vowed to start a new regime after munching crisps and chocolate at 4am on the eve of the final.
He said: “Jane texted me the other day and said, ‘Looks like you’ve put on a few pounds.’ It wasn’t nasty and I told her I could do with going to her gym.
“Jane said, ‘Great, come on over – the next time any of the players p**s you off, you can knock them out.’
“The majority of players are serious about being fitter. They are drinking diet coke instead of lager in the practice room and if I’m going to stay ahead, that’s what I’ll have to do.
“I was a goalkeeper at Crewe as a kid but piled on pounds when I stopped training every day.”
