Revolution Fitness

Another great TEAM SATURDAY in the back. Lots of new members joined us last weekend for our monthly big craic group workout. The next one is scheduled for August 20th. See ya there 😍

25kg powerlifting plates just hit different. It’s hard to describe just how much heavier they feel than normal plates. But we love em anyway 😍

What do you say about one of your most consistent and hard working members?

I wish we could take credit for Evelyn's results - but really all we can do is give her a big high 5 for consistently showing up over the last 3 years, working hard every session, and always bringing a smile.

Having a place where you're happy to train, love the vibe and look forward to showing up to each day is probably the single most important for your results. Effort compounds over time, and if you stop showing up, the results will stop too.

Ya can't just fitness for 6 weeks at a time, it has to become something that integrates into your lifestyle if you want to see long term success, increased energy and happiness.

You could train in the "best" gym in Dublin but if you hate it and the trainers are dicks, you won't last long.

Jussyain' :)

One of the most frustrating things we hear at RevFit is "I don't think I'll be fit enough / strong enough to start, so I might just do a bit myself for a while and then join when I'm ready".

I can't even begin to explain how much BS this is. And it's BS for one simple reason.

We literally could not care less how fit or strong you are.

It's like waiting to go to a doctor until you feel a bit better.

Or not starting school until you can already do basic addition.

Your job is not to be fit and strong. Our job is to make you that way.

So sure, you could struggle on your own not knowing what to do, waste time, get injured and give up. Or you could come join us and make more progress in your first 6 weeks following our plan than you would in 6 months on your own.

Obviously post COVID we've had an influx of newbies who've never been members of gyms before (some will even be reading his mail - hi!).

Our coaching team REALLY couldn't care less about how strong or fit you are. It makes absolutely no difference to us.

In fact, it's probably MORE rewarding helping someone who has never been in a gym before, and wouldn't know a dumbbell from a cowbell, see what their body is capable of.

Because if you give it a few weeks, your body will do AMAZING things. Things I won't even mention now because you wouldn't believe me now if I were to tell you.

But it will take a bit of time. You can't just join a gym and jump under a barbell and start slinging mad weights. I won't sugar coat it for you

It will take work. But it will be worth it.

Ian’s the newest member of the Revolution Fitness team and is our new member on-boarding specialist. When you first join Revolution Fitness, Ian will be the one carrying out your consultation, finding out about your history, what you’ve struggled with in the past and helping you to build an easy to follow roadmap to make sure you’re successful long term this time.

He’s kind, compassionate and knows getting started isn’t always easy - and will do everything he can to make that first step easier for you.

🤐 **Exercise is something you GET to do, not HAVE to do**

It's really really REALLY important to remember that training is something that should be a fun process that adds to your life.

If you're constantly stressed about workouts, worried about what you're eating, never able to do anything but track calories and train 6x per week, you're set up for failure long term.

Try backing off the intensity a bit, have some fun, smile and remember - exercise is something you GET to do, not something you HAVE to do :)

Lockdown has robbed us of some great members as they relocate around the city and country, but we always love seeing messages like this when they depart. Thank you Martin ♥️

Niall’s undergone his own transformation over the last 12 months gaining a significant amount of muscle and strength after retiring from playing football. He knows exactly what it takes to create and follow a program that builds serious strength and muscle.

Despite being a large and strong man he’s know for how friendly he is and always has a welcoming smile, encouraging words and a (socially distanced!) pat on the back for new members.

We use low impact cardio machines and heart rate monitors during all our training sessions. It doesn't matter whether you're super fit and can run marathons, or struggle to get up the stairs without being out of breath - we'll match your cardio intensity to your current fitness levels so you can gain without strain.
