Hundred. 100. Hundred. 100.
Welcome to The Hundred by NXT45
A 2024 Special
01. NXT45 - Events
The Hundred 2024 - A World-Class, World-First event for men.
When we first said that we were going to put an event on for specifically for men most stared back at us with a mix of confusion, excitement and fear.
‘We’re men, we don’t need an event just for us, I’m fine me’.
‘I’m too busy with work to put 3 days aside for an event’.
‘The Mrs. would kill me if I headed off for the weekend and left her with the kids’.
Just some of the initial responses. Hardly the kind of market research readout one is looking for when considering creating a mission driven business.
But we knew somewhere deep down that this was needed.
We understood the research into men’s health (our co-Founder Joe has a doctorate in psychology) and were both shocked and saddened by the statistics underpinning the current men’s health crisis we all choose to gloss over or ignore.
When we launched NXT45 last year 75% of those who took their own life were men, one year later that number is now 80%.
Then a funny thing happened.
We started to meet a different type of bloke.
Those who valued self-development and their own wellbeing. Those that saw merit in investing in their health for the future, not only for themselves but for their families, their children and their people.
Guys like Adam Nye, Tom Paterson, Liam Grogan, Alex Hammond, Matt Robinson, Kevin Meredith, Chris Bates, Paul Cheetham, Jamie Jones-Buchanan, Stephen Baxter, Jordan Yorath, Matt Jones and the Roxy team….and many, many more (you know who you are!).
These legends were our early adopters, our trailblazers and we’re forever grateful to them.
They showed men that it is good to take take time out to focus on their health and wellbeing once in a while.
They believe, as we do at NXT45, that ‘When Men Live Happier, Healthier & More Fulfilled Lives…Everyone Wins!’.
The Hundred by NXT45 was born.
The rest was history.
02. HEALTH - Group Struggle Session - Saturday 07:00
The Power of Groups
We pride ourselves on ensuring that The Hundred is for any man.
Not every man, but any man who wants to be a part of the NXT45 mission and who values being the very best of themselves.
You don’t have to be 45 either. You just need to have your eye on a better future. We’ve seen attendees at The Hundred range in age from 20-63.
We want you to have the right weekend for you. You can choose to do everything, something or nothing at all.
We do hope you try new things though and get involved.
An important element of each morning is movement and exercise. We all know the power of physical exercise and movement for both our mental and physical health.
That includes a choice of yoga and a group exercise workout within out 13th century castle.
This year we’re proud to announce that Rich Hunwicks will be delivering his own unique style of ‘group struggle’ session.
Rich is former Performance Director at Leeds Rhinos, Catalan Dragons and England Rugby League and an expert in designing sessions that are appropriate for all levels of fitness and accommodating of existing injury.
I had the privilege of joining Rich and the Leeds Rhinos squad for a number of these sessions in the 2023/24 pre-season.
Everyone attending The Hundred 2024 is in for a real treat and an amazing experience.
03. MINDSET - Self-Development
World Class Speakers
‘If you’re the smartest person in the room, then you are in the wrong room’ - Confucius
As well as amazing activities at The Hundred including; Cold water immersion with Brass Monkey, paddle boarding, wild swimming, guided breath work, health assessments, massage, postural assessments and more, we also provide an opportunity for everyone to learn and grow.
You won’t find influencers or big ticket, flavour of the month speakers.
You won’t find niche topics or stories that simply don’t connect to you our audience.
You will have the opportunity to listen and learn from some of our favourite speakers and experts the world doesn’t even know about yet.
This year we learn from experts in sleep and in stress, CEOs who have led multi-billion dollar businesses and lost it all, covert undercover legends, U.K Special Forces operators, Founders, sporting legends and of course our co-founders Mike and Joe.
There is always something for everyone.
We even provide a personalised journal for you to take notes in so that you’re able to action the things you now know long after The Hundreds has finished.
Missed out?
The good news…you only have 12 months to wait until The Hundred 2025.

05. TIP - Don’t be Late
If you missed this year’s The Hundred and want to join us in 2025 you better be quick.
Our forecasts tell us that next year will likely be a sell out (this year we sold out of our VIP & Camper Van options within weeks of our previous event).
So, here’s how you can stop procrastinating and make a move towards being a better version of you.
Drop us a line here and we will guarantee you a 30% discount and first dibs on tickets if you purchase or reserve yours before the end of September.
Snooze…you lose!
We believe that when men live happier, healthier & more fulfilled lives…everyone wins! - NXT45
