Went to see Mumford & Sons in the point last night. Had said it to a few people during the week that I was going. F#ck me, talk about a band that divides opinion. Half the lads I said it to were green with envy & the other half couldn’t tell me quick enough how […]

It’s probably the subject I get asked about most. Food. You’d think as a trainer it would all be exercise related but the truth is, the issue most people seek clarity on is nutrition. Why? Because most people don’t know where to f#cking start. And the reason being is simple. You scroll through your facebook […]
“I used to drink a 2 litre bottle of coke a day” This is what one of my newer recruits to Bulletproof Dad said to me last week. The session was on in the gym during the evening the same time the Champions League Football was on. And he was saying how the old him […]

He did an interview on RTE radio the other day to explain his reasons for retiring: “I have friends who are professional athletes in other […]
Trying to get in & out to my gym Airside today was a nightmare. Traffic was f#cking chaos. All the people hungry for a bargain, lined up in the cars frothing at the mouth over a parking spot opening up. I really hope all the agro was worth the 10-20% they saved on their shopping. […]

World Health Organisation published an article on the possible links between processed meats & cancer. http://edition.cnn.com/2015/10/26/health/who-processed-meat-cancer-social-reaction/ In fact it’s even been compared to smoking. It shouldn’t come as a shock that foods like sausages and hot dogs may be bad for you. But the reality […]
Here’s the deal mate, you kinda already know what you should be doing. For the most part, you know what food is good for you, and what food is sh#te. Same goes for exercise. You know it’s good for you, you know you should be doing something, at least a couple of times a week […]
