The weeks are absolutely disappearing…and so are some of the clients.

But in a good way! Because they’re making some serious progress on the scales.

One is down 6.3kg already, while another has 4.2kg down while working shifts.

Others are loving being so much more in control of food, feeling more energetic, and getting s**t done.

And one lady is about to rock a bikini on holidays for the first time since she had kids.

Can’t ask for more than that.

One final push now for week 6 before we kick off the next block on Monday.

Want in? Just let me know and will get you sorted.

Finally took what felt like my first bit of proper downtime in 2026 to have my ears blown off by Metallica over the weekend 🤘

However, it appears that some fella called 'Zach Bryan' has found his way onto the gym playlist while I was gone.

A full investigation has now begun and there will be repercussions.

Here's a question for you -

Would you pay €16.25/week to train twice a week in a gym where -

Sessions are capped at 10 people so it's never overcrowded and you have access to all the equipment you need.

There's always a coach/PT supervising every session so you're never left stuck

And all your programming is done for you so you're always progressing and never left guessing what to do...so all you have to do is simply turn up?

Because that's exactly what one of the options is here in StrongLife.

I prefer to aim for quality over quantity, so we cap numbers, make sure everyone has progressive programs to follow, and be involved in their training and coach them along the way.

If that sounds good, don't be afraid to get in touch.

4 weeks done, 2 weeks to go.

And as Paddy Losty would say - “there’ll be no fecking shtopping them”.

Some massive wins on the scales with two ladies smashing past the 10lbs mark.

While so many others are reporting back big wins in the shape of how in control of their food they are, even when life gets busy/thrown off a bit.

Plus, they’re starting to feel stronger, fitter, and more confident in clothes.

Can’t ask for more than that really.

Now to give it a burst for the next 2 weeks.

✅️ First strength block in 18 months

Now, I'm no Aisling Feely or Shannon Kerins, but it was good to wrap up my first 6 week strength block in 18 months.

The aim was to simply regain confidence that I wouldn't fold in half if I lifted anything over 100kg again.

And being honest, I had been a bit anxious about pushing again, so it was good to finally just give it a go.

The aim was 100kg on the bench and over 120kg on the trap bar.

So it went well with 105kg and 130kg topped out respectively.

I actually felt great after it too, so we are onto a winner.

And I'll use those numbers to map out the next block to keep pushing the numbers up.

Oh, and if you have back pain or nerve pain like I had last year, the advice I would give you is -

1. DO YOUR REHAB

Seriously, if you really want to get back to living a normal life, you need to make the time and get it done.

2. Then as soon as you can, get into a gym to strength train so you can build up and regain confidence in your body.

Trust me, you'll be delighted when you're out the other side of it all.

We’ve hit the halfway point of block 2…and the results keep on coming.

Some really good milestones hit on the scales with 10Ibs hit by one of the ladies while another one has demolished 4.9kg already!

Outrageous stuff.

But as always, the wins aren’t just about the scales. It’s about what’s happening with their habits, behaviours, routine, and control over food.

It’s so good to check in every week and hear the progress people are making, how they’re more in control than ever, not falling into binge eating habits, and are enjoying the process.

3 more weeks to go, so we will push on.

And who knows, we might roll into block 3 then.

If you want to set yourself apart from the people who always look for the quick fix or easy way...

Then focus on getting strong.

There are no shortcuts. Because when you're strong, it's proof that you turn up, train hard, and put the work in.

Plus, it's always good to feel strong and be able to do cool s**t 💪

Test Day for Katelyn 💪

Yesterday, it was Captain Giggle’s turn to have a rattle at her test day to round off our latest 6 week block.

Like the other GAA girls, Phase 1 built her base strength which took her from a 33.5kg Bench to 37.5kg and helped her Trap Bar fly up to 92.5kg from 78kg.

Phase 1 also helped us get on top of a small compensation in her hips so she became more stable and was able to generate more strength/power in a controlled fashion.

Phase 2 then was to build a bit more strength, keep refining that compensation (which showed great improvement) and then layer in more plyometric and explosive work.

And once we wrapped up the program, we had to test, because sure how else would we know if it worked?

Fair to say, it worked really well for Katelyn!

Her Bench jump up again from 37.5kg to 41kg and her Trap Bar broke past the 100 mark with 105kg for a 12.5kg increase again.

Across the 12 weeks, she has gained 7.5kg on her Bench and a bit 27kg on her Trap Bar.

And her plyos all increased too!

Her CMJ went from 25.0cm to 28.6cm, SJ went from 24.6cm to 27.3cm, ABK from 30.7cm to 32.4cm and her Drop Jump went from 24.9cm to 29.4cm with a reduction in her contact time from 0.63 to 0.421.

Not only has she improved in the gym, but there’s been great feedback on how she is doing on the pitch too.

Now to set herself and Aimee up for Phase 3. Twin it to win it, right?

2 weeks done, 4 to go - and we are flying it.

While the big wins on the scales are always great to see, it’s the control over snacking/bingeing and hunger that is impressing me the most.

Because when you get to grips with that, you have a lot more control over your choices, reduce decision fatigue, and can stick to your diet a lot better.

And it’s always great to hear how they’re getting stronger, fitter, and enjoying the process too.

Now to keep her lit and see what week 3 brings for us this weekend!
