Magnesium is one of those things that gets overlooked, but I see the impact of it every week with clients — especially when it comes to sleep, recovery, muscle tightness and stress levels.

Training breaks the body down. Recovery is what builds it back up. If you’re constantly tired, cramping, not sleeping well or feeling wired all the time, it’s worth looking beyond just your workouts and asking whether you’re actually supporting your body properly.

Food always comes first, but with modern diets and busy lifestyles, a lot of people simply aren’t getting enough magnesium through food alone. It’s not a magic fix — but when training, nutrition and recovery line up, everything works better.

If you’re unsure what supplements make sense for you, ask before guessing. Message me on 087 761 0192 and we’ll talk it through.

Shouting this for those in the back.... women lifting weights won't make you look more 'mascaline' or 'bulky'!! I have women that come into my gym that put us men to shame when it comes to weight lifting!

Pop me a message if you want to give it go 💪

People fail because they’re trying to do too much at once.

You don’t need 6 workouts a week, a perfect diet, and endless motivation. You need a plan you can repeat and be consistent with when life gets busy.

Start simple. Stay consistent. WhatsApp me on 087 761 0192 to start properly.

If you’re new to the gym (or coming back after time off), most stalled progress comes down to a few common mistakes — not lack of effort.

Get the fundamentals right early and everything becomes easier: strength, confidence, and results all follow.

If you want to start properly — with a clear plan and guidance — message or WhatsApp me on 087 761 0192 and let’s get you moving in the right direction from day one.

Eileen came to me after a health scare in 2025. She’d never really exercised before apart from walking, and weight training was completely new territory. We took everything slow. No pressure, no rushing — just building confidence, strength, and routine step by step. That patience has paid off in a big way.

Seven months on, Eileen’s health has improved massively. She’s down two stone, trains twice a week in the gym, and still gets out walking daily hitting her 10,000 steps. More importantly, she enjoys it — the sessions, the routine, and the progress.

There’s great craic and plenty of laughs in our sessions, and the hour always flies. That’s what consistency looks like when training feels comfortable and supported. Eileen, fair play to you. The work you’ve put in speaks for itself.

If you’re in your 40s, 50s or beyond and unsure where to start, I promise it’s never too late — with the right approach, it can be life-changing.

Are you going to go through another year of 'starting over' only to never really start in the first place? To truly, honestly make changes to your eating and exercise that will positively impact your health.

No one can do it only you. No one is going to force you to eat well and no one is going to make you get up early for that workout before the school runs. Only you.

Stay as you are now and keep waking up every Monday with guilt and the urge to starve yourself for the week or INSTEAD make simple small changes every day that with ultimately change you as a person, physically and mentally. Small changes such as prioritising protein at every meal, moving your body more, drinking more water etc.

Make your choice because no one else is going to😉

If you’re starting weight training, the goal isn’t to lift heavy — it’s to lift well.

I see it all the time: people rushing to heavier weights before they’ve learned proper movement. That’s how injuries happen and progress stalls. Start light, learn the basics and build confidence and consistency.

Strength isn’t rushed — it’s earned.

If you’re unsure where to start, that’s exactly what personal training is for. If you are ready to start lifting weights properly, message me on 087 761 0192.

As we head into 2026, I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who trained with me, supported the business, shared posts, or even just said hello in the gym this year. Every session booked, every bit of trust placed in me, and every bit of effort you put in doesn’t go unnoticed.

2026 is about getting stronger, moving better, building consistency, and doing things properly — no quick fixes, just solid work. Looking forward to working with familiar faces and welcoming plenty of new ones in the year ahead.

Happy New Year to you and your families.
