In late December 2014, I came to the harsh  realisation that I was overweight. I was emotional, unhappy, tired and in denial. With a career ending injury of my wrist and 3 surgeries to attempt to fix it, I spent a great deal of time doing a whole heap of nothing. One morning I saw 84.9 kg’s on the scales, enough was enough!
My weight loss journey started as exactly that, a weight loss journey. What I didn’t realise was the massive lifestyle change I was about to embrace. I started with nutrition. I cut bad habits out and only fueled my body with what was good for it. I dropped a substantial amount of weight in the first month and even though I knew good nutrition was a big part of weight loss, I knew it wasn’t everything. I needed to start doing some sort of exercise. I’ve never been one to push myself to go for a walk or a ride on my own, I just think it’s boring. That’s when I knew the best option for me would be Personal Training. I had recently spoken with my Aunty about her Trainer and was absolutely gobsmacked by her progression and transformation. This of course was Kieran. Hey I know Kieran, I’ll give him a call next week. I’ve never looked back!
Kieran is a one of a kind trainer and I absolutely admire his approach to exercise, nutrition and lifestyle changes. I thought my injury was a set back but Kieran has guided me and shown me ways around it, showing me that in the world of Beachside Personal Trainers there is absolutely no reason why you need to use the word “can’t”, unless you want to do burpees of course.
Kieran has pushed me to places I didn’t know I could go and I truely mean it when I say I couldn’t have done it without him!
I am a changed woman thanks to this man. I now have a massive passion for fitness and there is nothing that can hold me back. I love the combination of sessions he has to offer and now enjoy going to Bootcamp along with my P.T sessions.
In just 3 months I have lost 17.3kgs over 50 cm’s off my measurements, decreased my body fat percentage, increased my lean muscle.
Being made Beachside’s Member of the Month for March has contributed massively to regaining my self confidence and getting back to my old self! I’ve smashed some goals and have made some new ones. All of which I know are possible with the help of Kieran.
