Paul (55), Engineer:
‘I have had high blood pressure for the past number of years that I urgently needed to address. I also needed to increase the strength in my upper body as I felt that there was an imbalance between my upper and lower body. I have been training with Brian for the past year and he has taught me how to do a number off strength training exercises. As a result off this training my blood pressure has improved dramatically. I have reduced my body fat by 10% and I have steadily increased my bench press from 15 kilos up to 45 kilos. I have proved to myself that age is not a barrier when it comes to achieving my goals.’

Sandra (24), Hairdresser:
‘I have been training with Brian for the last 10 weeks. I always dreaded the thought of going into a gym, so the fact that Brian comes to my house, overcame that hurdle. He taught me a number of toning exercises, which I can now do in my own home. He also made out a diet plan for me that I found quite easy to follow. Brian stressed to me that any lifestyle changes that I make should not seem like a big sacrifice. As a result of these changes I have lost six lbs. of fat and toned up considerably. I now feel a lot more confident in myself to go on to new challenges.’

An Coppens (33), Business Coach:
After struggling through the London Marathon earlier this year, I decided that if I was to do it again I needed help to structure my training plan, which is why I contacted Brian O’Shea. Brian has devised a training schedule for me and has motivated me to stick to it. He has also helped me to improve my muscular endurance through toning exercises over the last few months. I am now much more focused on what I need to do to achieve my goal. I now feel that achieving my time goal is well within reach as well as finishing the marathon comfortably.’

Emer (28), Full-time mother:
‘After I gave birth to my first child, I found it difficult to lose all the weight I'd gained during my pregnancy. I wanted to lose the weight, but I couldn't motivate myself or find the time to exercise. The fact that Brian came to my home made it much easier for me to get started on a weight loss plan. He devised a specialised fitness and nutrition program for me. He also kept me motivated through the highs and lows over the course off the last eight months. I have lost over a stone in weight now and have much more energy and confidence.’
