3 Young Children. Full-Time Job. No Excuses. Meet Alice.

Having a young family is tough, it’s busy, every day is a new challenge. Making time to focus on yourself will never be more important! Alice trains twice a week in a large group, the flexibility of the booking apps suits, she builds her strength for daily life as a mum, together with getting the head showered for an hour 😅 here’s a quick work from Alice ⬇️

1️⃣ How long have you been training at T1 Fitness?

Officially stated in 2021 when I moved to the area.

2️⃣ Have you enjoyed your time at T1 Fitness since joining?

Yes! T1 is a very welcoming gym. Not being from the area, it is quite daunting going into a space where so many people know each other. Everyone, including the coaches, are so welcoming but not to the point where you feel like a newbie. There is always plenty of craic and the challenges throughout the year keep me on track.

3️⃣ Please share with us some of your favourite achievements in regards fitness or active things.

I think my biggest achievement at the moment is making my gym time a habit and part of my weekly routine. Working full time and having very small children this can sometimes seem impossible. I can see the benefits of strength training when I go for runs and have found that I don’t have as many injuries.

4️⃣ Would you recommend T1 fitness to a friend or family member?

Yes, definitely!

5️⃣ If you could give anyone thinking about starting a fitness journey a piece of advice, what would it be?

DO IT! You absolutely will never regret it. It will have a positive impact on all areas of your life. Go on the days you don’t want to and enjoy the days that you are ready for it! When I have been everything in our house works so much better. Things are more organised and everything ticks along that little bit more smoothly. Oh and mummy is maybe a little calmer… 🤣

🌟 If you’re a busy mum and need an hour away from it all to focus on YOU, book your free consultation today 📲

It lies at the top of the Mournes 💊

The dosage is greater with every peak ⛰️

Exercise, fresh air and views like this beat sitting in the house any day and will get you feeling great satisfaction, not to mention you’ll burn calories quicker than you can eat a kitkat 🍫 (not technically but the idea is nice)🙃

Here’s more of the reasons we love going for a hike in the Mournes…

It can be rather challenging physically, as some days you feel great and might run them, other days walk and some days almost a crawl. Depending on the previous few days training load can greatly affect this but as always it’s great to challenge yourself physically.

Being in the mountains is often when you can get your best ideas, whether that be for work, home life or just random ideas. Even to get your head cleared, it’s absolutely great! If you’ve had a very busy day and still have a long to do list, getting to the mountains for a quick skite can be enough to get you focused, rather than sitting at a desk trying to force yourself through it and end up taking far longer to get it done!

You may think “I’m not fit enough to go exploring in the mountains”, however that is where we can really help, we’ve had members sign up with the goal to become fit and strong enough to climb one specific mountain. Our social mountain walks have provided the perfect chance for members to achieve this goal 🎯

Building your cardiovascular fitness and strength in your legs will always compliment your ability to hike in the Mournes.

Often when you’re in the Mournes you will notice cars from Dublin, Wicklow and even Cork! People drive miles on end to get to something that we have right on our very doorstep 🏞

If you want this summer to be the year you’re going to get up into the mountains and want to build that base level fitness and strength get in contact today and we will happily get you ready 💪🏼

Small Group. Big Wins. Just Ask Adrienne 👱🏼‍♀️

If you know Adrienne, you’ll know she’s a lively one 😄 Adrienne was always reserved about making the leap into a gym environment. It can be very daunting, Thankfully in late 2025, Adrienne bit the bullet and stepped through the door. We love having her in our small group sessions twice a week, here’s how it’s going ⬇️

1️⃣ How long have you been training at T1 Fitness?

Just 6 short months.

2️⃣ Have you enjoyed your time at T1 Fitness since joining?

Surprisingly the first thing that comes to mind is I enjoy my classes and I look forward to coming. I quickly learned that there is absolutely no pressure but only encouragement and that is a lovely ethos around T1, and the obvious one of meeting new people and making friends with the odd bit of craic 😆

3️⃣ Please share with us some of your favourite achievements in regards fitness or active things.

Honestly my biggest achievement for me has been enjoying my classes something I didn’t think I would, but it hasn’t gone unnoticed that every week Robert and Aaron keep upping my weights and every week I tell them something is too heavy but with their gentle encouragement I surprise myself and I do it (with a little bit of moaning 😆)

4️⃣ Would you recommend T1 fitness to a friend or family member?

Yes, definitely!

5️⃣ If you could give anyone thinking about starting a fitness journey a piece of advice, what would it be?

Just start off at 1 class, I’ve absolutely no doubt you’ll finish that class looking to go to you next. Also never give up on a bad day ☺️

People always tell you that exercise helps mood, and honestly it does some mornings I’ve been tired and emotional with a son that doesn’t sleep well but leaving that gym session I felt I could face the day a bit better. Doing something for me is amazing and I can’t wait to see what the next 6 months bring. Thank you to everyone coaches & class buddies for making this journey amazing so far 🤩

🌟 Don’t wait 6 months to wish you started. Start now. Book your free consultation today 📲

🎈Happy 70th Margaret 🎂

When members bring cake to class, it highlights to us the friendships and community that gyms can offer ☺️

Between the over 55s ladies class on a Monday and a small group PT session every Thursday, we think Margaret has earned a slice 😅

If you’re new to the Mourne area or have been here for some time, but only recently considered starting an exercise regime or making a healthy lifestyle change, get in touch today 📞

WHAT HAPPENED ON 14th OCTOBER 1066❓

If you listened to Amanda in school, you’d know the answer to this question ⚔️🛡😅

We love having Amanda with us every Tuesday and Friday in our small group sessions! Here’s how Amanda continues to show up, get stronger and feel great, 7 years down the line 🏋🏻‍♀️

1️⃣ How long have you been training at T1 Fitness?

I think it’s since January 2019.

2️⃣ Have you enjoyed your time at T1 Fitness since joining?

Yes. To be honest there’s nothing I dislike about the gym! I train in small groups with Aaron most of the time and I enjoy the workouts and the banter! I’ve made lots of new friends and everyone looks out for each other and encourages you to keep going when it gets a wee bit tough. All the trainers are so friendly and helpful and do really help you get the most out of time in the gym. The workouts always take into consideration my capabilities while still challenging me to improve fitness and strength.

3️⃣ Please share with us some of your favourite achievements in regards fitness or active things.

When I started in the gym I was weak physically and down mentally. Gradually I’ve been able to lift more, build muscle and improve overall fitness. I was quickly out of breath on daily walks if there was any gradient before I started, but that has all changed. It’s great to also benefit from the ‘head space’ time at the gym gives and to feel the mental benefits of working out.

4️⃣ Would you recommend T1 fitness to a friend or family member?

Yes, definitely!

5️⃣ If you could give anyone thinking about starting a fitness journey a piece of advice, what would it be?

Do it now!! Your older self will thank you and you definitely won’t regret it! T1 is the most welcoming place and you will quickly feel part of the gym community. Honestly don’t put it off!!

Many times people refer to the gym community as there are lots of enjoyable social events organised as well, but I’d go further and say it’s a gym family who really do encourage and support one another. If you’re looking for a gym to join this is definitely the one!

How to survive mid term break while trying to stay on track 📈

I get it, kids are off school, zero routine on the go or time for yourself, add in a splash of rain 🤯

All the hard work you’ve been putting into your fitness journey you are now fearing will go to 💩 😌

We’ve got you covered ⬇️

Few key tips to consider putting into practice here depending on the stage of your journey you are at 👙

1-Have a plan 📝
This is the most important.
Once the kids are back to school or you’re back to work have a solid plan of action and stick to it be it walking daily or going to the gym twice a week.

2-Meal prep 🌯
This is huge for me, if it’s sitting in the fridge prepped and ready to heat or eat, you will 99% of the time go for it instead of cupboard hoking 🍫

3-Do a home bodyweight workout, why not give this core circuit a try?

6 exercises 60seconds per exercise x4-5rounds (30s rest optional)

1-Deadbug
2-Cycle crunch
3-Hollow hold or tuck hold
4-Side plank dips (30s per side)
5-Mountain Climbers (30s slow, 30s fast)
6-Plank shoulder taps

4-Get active with the kids if you can’t get to the gym

Picnic 🧺
Dander up the hills 🏔
Beach 🏖
Trampoline 🤸‍♀️
Play catch 👋

5-Bring your calories up to maintenance 🤨

If you have been on a fat loss journey for an increase your calories up by 200 per day to allow for a little leeway without undoing any hard work and then straight back to it when you are in routine again ✅⏳

6-Allow yourself something nice so you aren’t craving it massively
For me it’s 3 squares of bournville (65cals)

7-Have healthy snacks available 🍇

8-Remember fitness doesn’t have to be boring 😑
Eat the foods you really enjoy (without going mad) some of the time, eat 3 meals a day each with protein, starchy carbs and some unsaturated fat (make sure these are meals you like!!) Two snacks and lots of water fruit and veg 🥗

Get out and get active, enjoy the break, make memories with the littles and get back into full swing after! 😁

If you like the core circuit, why not book into our core focused class on a Tuesday evening at 7pm 📖

Kilimanjaro 🏔️ Everest base camp, 105km ultra marathon and a quadruple heart bypass. How Ronnie continues to train and and set an example to anyone who’s thinking about getting into fitness 🏃🏻‍➡️

If you’ve ever bought a suit in Kilkeel, you’ll know local legend Ronnie Forsythe 🤵🏻‍♂️ We’ve had the pleasure of Ronnie being a member over the last couple of years at T1, faithfully attending 2 small group training sessions every week (when he’s not on his travels ✈️).

Here’s a bit more from the man himself:

1️⃣ How long have you been training at T1 Fitness?

You know the answer to that rob, think 2 years!!

2️⃣ Have you enjoyed your time at T1 Fitness since joining?

Never was a “gym man” but have really enjoyed the sessions, very few days that there are exercises that I haven’t done before, good company in the classes and of course some competition.

3️⃣ Please share with us some of your favourite achievements in regards fitness or active things.

Completing ultra marathon, I have finished 9 great north runs, Everest base camp, climbing Mont Blanc and Kilimanjaro. Now that I have a 7 in my birthday great to participate in events although not as competitive as I used to be. Occasionally I come 1st in my age group in the park runs although I usually find when I check that I have also been last!!!

4️⃣ Would you recommend T1 fitness to a friend or family member?

Yes, definitely!

5️⃣ If you could give anyone thinking about starting a fitness journey a piece of advice, what would it be?

Stick at it even on the days you are thinking of giving it a miss.
