RevFit Member Events & Social Calendar – 2019
I dunno about you guys, but I always find that trying to organise a group of people for anything other than a last minute trip to the pub to be a total disaster. I’ve had so many conversations with members, coaches and friends about wanting to do things that are SLIGHTLY outside the norm but […]
Continue readingLiam Lost Over 8kg And Cured 20 Years Of Injuries In 6 Weeks
When a man who’s training 20 years and is already pretty jacked comes in after his final weigh in and says this, you know you got it pretty right. One of the biggest compliments you can get as a coach is when someone with experience is blown away by their results. Having spent a large […]
Continue readingThe Townsend Sisters Lost 6kg EACH
Meet Trish and Elena. The Townsend sisters. Two Drumcondra natives that know my mum and dad and live within a stones throw of them. If you wanna test how confident you are in something – imagine someone going off to your parents and saying “your son is a scam artist”. Shite. So as soon as […]
Continue readingHow Adam Lost 10.7kg in 6 Weeks
The reason why people come to talk to us in RevFit is because they have a problem to solve. Maybe it’s why you got started with us, or signed up for more info about our training programs. You have no problem? Cool – stop reading. You’ve no need for a solution. But trust me, a […]

I was recently talking to someone who asked if personal training is good value. She asked if €600 up front for 3 days per week, for 3 months was good value. That’s about €16 per session. Is it good value? I dunno. Didn’t know the trainer so can’t comment. But it’s cheap. (and I KNOW […]

I often joke that since I don’t have a “brand name” for the nutrition in RevFit, no one pays attention to it. Slimming World, Weight Watches, Paleo, IIFYM / Macros and Atkins get all the glory. You can say to someone “are you paleo” and you both instantly know what’s up.…but is it the best […]
Continue readingOn Dieting and Purposeful Unsustainability
Something we talk a lot about during the initial consultation on our 6 week training program is the idea that your rapid fat loss diet is purposely unsustainable. It’s something you couldn’t possibly stick to long term for a few reasons… ❌ We exclude A LOT of foods during the initial phase, and we do it […]
Continue readingAnother entry into the 20kg club
If you’ve over 20kg to lose, today’s email makes for essential reading. Not just because it’s motivational story of a golf mad RevFit member who did it, but because it contains the exact calories, training sessions and work he did since October 2017 to get there.(…in truth, I’m writing this email on 19-02 because by […]
Continue readingCan You Party At The Weekend and Still Lose Weight
One of the most frequent questions we get asked in RevFit is “Why haven’t I lost weight yet?”. Normally it comes from a member who’s been with us < 6 months, and is showing up to most (or ALL) of their training sessions consistently and doing a reasonably good job eating Monday-Friday. They’ll often confess […]
Continue readingDerrie’s Deadlift PR
My training has been pretty shit since last July or so. After lifting at IrishPF nationals in July 2017 it took a bit of a nose dive. I’d a good day – a 250kg squat, 162.5 bench and 267.5kg deadlift, but it was below what I was capable of.That happens a lot in powerlifting. You […]
