For me posting videos on YouTube and interacting with people on Twitter is a great release from the stresses of football.
Adebayo Akinfenwa
I want to be playing competitive first-team football every week and not reserve team football.
Football players value job security and stability as much anybody else.
I'm not one of those players who always gets to games or watches every game on TV. If a game is on and I'm free, I'll watch it but I won't make my schedule around a football match.
As a player on the bench, you become like a fan really. You're sitting there shouting 'why did he do that?' or 'no don't pass it there' and I can see why fans get so frustrated. But then I remember what it is like being out there on the pitch and how players can't see everything that fans can see.
I went to bikram yoga once, it was fun, but boy was it tough.
As you go through your career you learn what works for you and what doesn't and you pick things up with experience.
People think that football is all glamour and money but trust me all footballers go through the same boring and annoying things as everybody else.
I'm human just like everyone.
You play football to go out there and win - that's the bottom line.
Obviously you know match-fixing is out there but you don't really associate it with the English game.
When I look back at my career it is nice to know that I've been appreciated on and off the pitch because not everyone is.
I think if you score lots of goals but nobody likes you as a person then it stands for nothing.
To have the support of your team-mates is massive.
As players we have to be careful what we put out there and make sure everything we do is appropriate. And it is not always easy.
As I've said before, I'm a big fan of social media because it allows players and fans to interactive but it can have its pitfalls.
You see it all the time, in all divisions, that teams raise themselves and apply themselves that little bit more when they play a 'bigger team.'
Playing on Sky Sports doesn't really make a difference to me.
I'm a big believer in not getting too high when you are winning and not getting too low when things aren't going well.
Everyone likes to be praised for their work and footballers are no different but the key thing is staying level-headed.
In my younger days, sometimes family and personal life came second to my ambition.
Like individuals in all walks of life, footballers want stability and we have families to look after.
When you've only got two days between games the recovery process is key.
I was always a big guy. You see my family - my brothers are the same size.
