It’s the first Monday of the year and so, quite a few of you are probably thinking about getting fit after the rather copious consumption of the Christmas period.

So should we sign up to the gym, rejoin the 5 aside team or start playing Tag rugby?

How about Chessboxing? Chessboxing is a hybrid sport that is the subject of a new film called By Rook or Left Hook: The Story of Chessboxing. 

David Bitton is the director of the film.  

(By Rook or Left Hook: The Story of Chessboxing is available for Irish viewers on iTunes, Vimeo and Google Play)
