“Transforming my life, one workout at a time! 💪✨"

"Why did I start with NLF? My sister Grainne was thriving on her weight loss journey, and I was struggling at my heaviest, with sore joints making daily tasks a challenge. Concerned about my health, I reached out to Dan and joined.

Before NLF, I tried countless diets and fancy gyms where I felt invisible. At NLF, I felt welcomed, people genuinely care, and that support is invaluable.

After some ups and downs, I committed to the process and lost 32lbs this year! My clothes fit looser, and I feel stronger and healthier than ever. I train three times a week, and I love the extra push during sessions like the Santa Shred which’ I WON this year!!.

For anyone considering joining, I was once someone who hated exercise, but now those 30 minute morning sessions kickstart my day with amazing support from the members and coaches.

What I love most? The people, the encouragement, and the ability to challenge myself at my own pace. NLF has truly been LIFE CHANGING for me!"

DM us “READY” today and we will get you started on your journey 🫡

The rebound is often worse than the initial weight loss.

Imagine this for a second.

Your body needs around 1600 calories per day just to function properly. To get through work, school runs, daily stress and still feel half normal.

Now imagine there was a magic pill that helped you stay under 800 calories per day.

What happens?

Of course you lose weight

And usually pretty quickly.

At the start, the first dose feels amazing. You can stomach the cost (see what I did there 😜).

Appetite drops, the scales move, and for the first time in years it feels like you’re finally winning.

But then you want more results, faster results, so the dose goes up. More weight comes off, and more money comes out of your pocket too.

Six months later you’re 30–40lbs down. You haven’t really changed how you move or how you eat because you haven’t needed to……Hunger hasn’t been an issue.

Your face tells your friends you haven’t eaten properly in months, but hey, the skinny body is coming, right 😈

This is where I see problems starting.

People are riding the high of weight loss with very little effort, but what’s really happened is months spent in a very aggressive calorie deficit.

The weight loss feels like success.

The side effects get brushed off as “normal”. Headaches, nausea, low energy… all worth it because the scales are going down.

Until the wave stops or until you don’t want the next dose upgrade 🫣

Real long-term, sustainable fat loss doesn’t happen at the extremes.

It happens with small, manageable calorie deficits, regular movement and exercise that actually fits into real life.

That approach doesn’t feel as exciting, but the payoff is far better.

Energy stays up.
Strength improves.
Confidence actually follows the weight loss.

I can empathise with people who feel like injections are their only option. I genuinely can.

But I don’t have to agree with it.

Daily activity and a calorie deficit are still the foundations of a healthy, strong, fit body.

They always have been.

Great day out with some of the NLF crew down at Dundalk half marathon 😊😊

A smashing day all round with PBs on a sh*tty start to the morning with the rain that’s been on for the last 23 years 😂😂

Always lights me up seeing clients smash it and most importantly enjoying the process 😊🙌

On to the next whoop whoop 🙌

I’ve I’ve been unemployed for 11 years😵

I’ve owned a gym for 12 years

I’ve been coaching fat loss for 16 years 😊

I’ve worked with thousands of clients over that time. I’ve helped a lot of people, annoyed a few, lost plenty along the way too.

All part of the process, right 😈

I was looking back at some old photos earlier and honestly thought….

WOW What a journey.

Plenty of ups and downs, but lessons I’ll carry for life. I’m genuinely grateful I get to do this in West Belfast.

I was thinking earlier how different the fitness industry is now compared to when I started.

There’s a lot more competition, a lot more noise, and honestly a lot more b*llsh!t for people to wade through.

But here’s the thing.

Our beliefs at No Limits Fitness haven’t really changed at all.

👉30 minute sessions, three times per week, work. Twelve years of data and hundreds of life-changing transformations back that up.

👉A smart calorie deficit is still the best approach for sustainable fat loss. No injection, secret exercise or celebrity diet has changed my mind on that.

👉Movement is medicine. Less sitting, more moving, better health.

And

👉For most people 0.5 to 1.5lbs of weight loss per week is the sweet spot long term. Of course it happens faster at the start, but small chunks frequently always wins.

NLF is for real people, with real lives, who want results that actually last.

🙈What also hasn’t changed is expectations. Most people still want results faster than reality allows and end up disappointed before they’ve really given themselves a chance.

So although I’ve been in this game a long time, the fundamentals of a successful lifestyle change are exactly the same.

If you’re fed up starting over and want something that actually holds up long term, let’s have a chat.

🔥**WINNING WEDNESDAY** 🔥

This week, let’s shine a light on Claire, who has absolutely crushed it in the Santa Shred Challenge! Not only did she shed **13 pounds**, but she also dropped a size in her jeans and gained a ton of energy! 💪✨

Here’s what Claire had to say:

“I needed a clear focus and a goal to work towards, and let’s be honest, the Santa Shred is always great craic! Being part of a team really drives me; I’ve always been competitive, especially from my camogie days. I set a personal goal of 5 classes per week, and it kept me motivated!”

Claire emphasizes the importance of community: “The coaches and my teammates pushed me through each session. Getting out of the house is usually the hardest part, but once I’m there, the energy is contagious! Remember, you’ll only regret the things you don’t do!”

Looking back, Claire reflects, “I’m feeling better than I have in years—strong, energetic, and genuinely happy. My mental health has improved significantly. Almost two years at NLF, and I’ve lost nearly **3 stone**! I’m excited for 2026 and ready to smash new targets!”

“I’m so grateful for the support from my coaches and teammates—your encouragement makes all the difference! 🙌”

Some of you won’t like this, but it’s worth saying.

Skinny injections are everywhere right now. Ozempic, Mounjaro, whatever the latest name is. I’m even hearing kids talking about them and that alone should make us stop and think.

Before anyone jumps down my throat, I get the appeal. If someone told me I could have a six pack, big arms and run a sub-20 minute 5k by taking something once a week, I’d probably think about it too 😂

And look, for some people, in some situations, they can help with weight loss. I’m not denying that.

The issue is what happens next.

They’re easy. Appetite drops, you eat less, the weight comes down. No planning. No routine. No real lifestyle change. At the start, that feels like winning.

But over time I’m seeing the same pattern. Dose goes up. Cost goes up. Side effects creep in. Weight comes down but confidence doesn’t. Strength doesn’t improve. Fitness doesn’t improve. Energy is still all over the place.

Then people realise they need to tone up or get fitter, but now they’re juggling the cost of injections and training. Most people can’t or won’t do both, and if we’re honest, the injection will always feel like the easier option.

Training takes effort. Planning meals takes effort. Getting stronger and fitter takes effort. There’s no way around that.

More and more people are coming to No Limits after trying the injections. Some lost weight, some didn’t, but most say the same thing. They don’t feel how they expected to feel.

Long-term results come from boring basics. Training 3–4 times per week, managing calories over the week, and doing something you can actually keep up when life is busy.

We’re not anti anything. We’re just not in the business of selling shortcuts that don’t hold up long term.

No judgement. Just honesty.

I’m even hearing kids talking about them and that alone should probably make us stop and think for a second.

Before anyone jumps down my throat, I get why people are drawn to them.

If someone told me I could have a six pack, big arms and run a sub-20 minute 5k by taking something once a week

I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t think about it for a split second too 😂

And look, for some people, in some situations, they can help with weight loss. I’m not denying that.

The part people don’t really talk about is what happens next.

The whole appeal is that they’re easy. You take it, your appetite drops, you eat less and the weight comes down.

No planning…..No routine…..No real lifestyle change other than starving the body

And at the start, that feels like winning.

But over time I’m seeing the same pattern again and again.

The dose increases, The cost increases, Side effects start to creep in.

Weight comes down but confidence doesn’t really follow.

Strength doesn’t improve Fitness doesn’t improve
Energy is still all over the place.

Then people start thinking they should probably tone up or get fitter… and that’s where it gets tricky.

Because now you’re trying to juggle the cost of the injections with the cost of actually training, and most people can’t or won’t do both

And if we’re being honest, the injection will always feel like the easier option.

👉Training takes effort.
👉Planning meals takes effort. 👉Getting stronger and fitter takes effort.

There’s no way around that.

What’s interesting is that more and more people are coming into No Limits who have already tried the injections. Some lost weight, some didn’t, but the common theme is they don’t feel how they expected to feel when the weight came down.

What I do know, because I see it every single week, is that long-term results come from fairly boring basics.

Training 3–4 times per week. Creating a calorie deficit over the week, not starving day to day.

Doing something you can actually keep up when life is busy.

We’re not anti anything here.

We’re just not in the business of selling shortcuts that don’t hold up long term.

If you’ve tried everything and realised you probably need a bit of structure, support and accountability, that’s the conversation we’re happy to have.

No judgement…..Just honesty.

‼️ WINNING WEDNESDAY ‼️

This week, let’s celebrate Ciara for her amazing achievement in the Santa Shred Challenge, where she not only came in 3rd place but also lost an incredible 11 pounds! Let’s hear from her.

“I sign up every year because I know I’ll always get results, and this year was my best yet. I reached my goal of 50 sessions during the shred, and of course, winning a night at the Merchant is a fantastic bonus, whoop whoop!”

Ciara highlights the support she received: “My team and coach kept me motivated with the accountability from our group chats and online private group. Being team captain pushed me to step it up a bit, which really helped!”

To anyone considering joining, she says, “I highly recommend the Santa Shred. Apart from losing weight and increasing muscle mass, the connection and craic are fantastic! Christmas can be stressful, so doing something for your own mental health, like committing to 4 gym sessions per week, will have a ripple effect in your family life. Everything else falls into place.”

Looking back, Ciara feels stronger and ready to put healthier habits in place for the new year ahead, without any guilt for relaxing over the festive period.

If you’re ready to achieve results like Ciara, reach out to us! Let’s talk about your goals and make this year your best yet! 🙌🙌

Busy fat parents who don’t have time…
Yeah nah, too strong 🙈

But here’s why this annoyed me.

I saw a post recently taking the p**s out of parents trying to get fit in January and honestly thought
WTF

No Limits Fitness is full of busy parents
People who joined because they want to get fitter, lose a few pounds and feel confident again

And almost every single one of them struggled with the same thing
Time

As a parent of 3 kids, I get it

If it’s not homework, it’s school pick ups
If it’s not that, it’s football, drama, gymnastics, running from one place to the next

And that’s before dinner or the chaos of the morning even starts

It’s mayhem

So when I see posts mocking people for trying in January, it really gets to me
Especially when it usually comes from people who’ve forgotten how hard it actually is

Instead of saying fair play for giving it a go this year

Let’s be honest
Fitness is hard
Results take longer than we want
And progress usually takes about three times longer than expected 🙈

That’s why we keep things simple

No hours in the gym
Our sessions are just 30 minutes

You can train while the kids are at football, drama or gymnastics
In 90 minutes a week, you could genuinely be on track for your best transformation yet

If you’re ready to stop feeling guilty for trying and want support that actually fits real life
Drop us a message 🔥
