Presenter George Lamb and a group of doctors advise people with excessive lifestyles how to become healthier and avoid serious illness.

As a boy, 24-year-old Antonio McIntosh was a keen and accomplished rider with a childhood dream of joining the mounted police. But as a young man he swapped the riding school for the dance floor where high-octane all-nighters are fuelled by a cocktail of drugs.

The party regularly starts on a Thursday and doesn't stop until Monday morning, when the inevitable comedown is spent under the duvet waiting for the weekend to come around again.

To the despair of his family Antonio drifts in and out of dead end jobs, unable to find the discipline to get himself to work and instead gearing all his ambition to the next party. His mum worries that he is wasting his potential, while his sister's more immediate concern is that he might overdose one day.

Even when his living autopsy offers offers shocking information about the damage his partying is doing to his body and, in particular, his brain and his heart, Antonio's motivation is still in question. But his live-in doctor, Dr Ahmed, is undeterred and wastes no time in hooking him up to a heart monitor for 24 hours to show him the strain his lifestyle is exerting, despite his apparently fit-looking body.

Slowly the message starts to hit home and when Antonio quite literally gets back in the saddle he begins to realise what he might be missing.
