SOME FEEDBACK FROM MY AMAZING CLIENTS!
Online PT & Nutrition Premium Plan:I gained new knowledge on both exercise and nutrition. Both of which I already knew a fair bit about. To say I’m delighted is an understatement!!!! Breda is a gem. Her attitude and passion for what she does is phenomenal. This spills over and rubs off on her clients. I adored every part of my 6week program and that’s down to Breda and her knowledge and belief in what she does. Yes, it’s you the client that has to do the work but she kicks your ass in the nicest way possible achieving amazing results in the process. Thank you.

Online PT & Nutrition Premium Plan:My key takeaways from the program is that consistency is key, you don't have to starve yourself to lose weight, everything in moderation. I honestly can't recommend Breda enough. Her professionalism and knowledge are like no other. The time and effort she puts into the training and nutrition plans is amazing, tailoring everything to suit your lifestyle and level. She gives 100% to all her clients, keeping you motivated & checking in every week via zoom and also just a message away if you need anything between times, nothing is a bother to her! Her detailed videos of each exercise were easy to follow and you were never left stuck wondering how to do something. Both the training and nutrition plans were easy to follow, realistic and with lasting results which is what you want. I can honestly say this was the best, most organised and easy to follow PT programme I have ever done, I am delighted with my results and I can't wait to keep working with Breda in the future, she honestly is the best in the business 🙂

Online PT & Nutrition Premium Plan:I knew if it was going to be anything like training with Breda in the gym it would be so good! I feel more confident and have more of an idea of the kind of weights I’m using for if I was to go to the gym myself I’d feel more confident with the size of weights to use. I feel a lot more clued in nutrition wise, definitely seen some changes and I feel a lot better! Always there if I’m having an off week to encourage me to keep at it, excited for the next 4 weeks to see more progress.

Up until October, 2019, I was pretty active, doing a range of weekly classes and running regularly. This all came to an abrupt stop when I injured my shoulder and had to take 5 months off. I found the gym to be un-motivating, and I was constantly aware and afraid of my injuries in fitness classes afterwards. For me, this was debilitating because I felt like I couldn't.After speaking to Breda on social media and getting a feel for how her process of personal training, I decided to try it and I haven't looked back since. Every session is different, and completely tailored to not only my injury, but my fitness level. She is extremely knowledgeable on form and is so supportive and motivational. The sessions are as tough as they are great craic, she puts you at ease straight away and encourages you to do better. I stopped thinking about my injury and began to enjoy working out again. I would recommend Breda's personal training to anyone as I've benefited immensely from them. The picture is of me skiing, something I wouldn't have been confident enough to do without the personal training sessions!

As a busy mammy of two I find my time is taken up quite easily. After I had my first son I met with Breda to discuss what type of training plan I wanted, Breda talked me through all the different options I had and she made sure to tailor everything to my specific needs. She helped me understand what type of exercises would benefit the results I was hoping to achieve. She was extremely flexible when it came to me organising times with her as being of mammy of two means my time is no longer my own. I did six weeks one on one training with Breda and I was extremely pleased with my results. After the first session I found my confidence had boosted massively, Breda was continuously supporting me and giving me all the encouragement I needed. Not only did I do the training with Breda but she also done me a meal plan to help me with my diet. I would never have been able to get back to the fitness level I was at before having my son, she’s truly amazing at what she does. Thanks Breda for helping me get back to me.

I loved working out with Breda! After graduating college I realized I had gotten out of shape and wanted to get back into exercising regularly. I've never been a huge gym goer, and overall didn't enjoy working out in a gym setting as much as outdoor exercise like hiking or yoga, but Breda completely changed my mind about gym workouts. Breda worked with me to get me back in shape and more toned and fit than I'd been in years! Her sessions were high-intensity and made me sweat, but they were never boring. She switched up the exercises regularly and her funny stories and sweet personality made each session that much more fun!

Breda has helped me completely fall in love with working out. I’ve been going to various bootcamps and classes over the years but never truly looked forward to exercising until we started our one to one sessions. Her bubbly and positive attitude is a real driving force and helps get you through those last few reps. Breda has helped me so much with my form and breathing which is something I feel can be easily overlooked when attending larger classes. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Breda to anyone and look forward to continue to work with her in the future.

I have been actively exercising for over 20 years and I have had many different trainers but Breda is by far the best one. When I started working with Breda I was out of shape despite going to the gym regularly. I was having trouble focusing during my workouts and I would not give it my all. Luckily, Breda was creative and would customizes my workouts so that I would stay interested and keep pushing my body further and further. She made each workout fun yet challenging and because of her, I am in the best shape of my life.

I’m a person who wouldn’t be a big fan of gyms and I have had previous experience where my injuries where ignored when carrying out exercises by class instructors. I was apprehensive about getting back into a gym. When going to Breda for PT sessions and class sessions I can honestly say she listens to everyone in the group, she is genuinely clued into everyone’s abilities and limitations and constructs a class/ exercise routine to suit everyone’s needs. She goes through every exercise with a fine tooth comb to insure there is no possibility of further injury. Not just that but she has a very positive outlook that radiates through on all participants in the class. She is very motivational and I would really recommend her to anyone as I really enjoyed the workouts and felt a lot better for doing them.

Breda is an absolute fantastic personal trainer. She likes to show a lot of tough love but at the end of the day that’s what gets results. As a nurse that works shift work, no time day or night was too early or late for her to train me. She worked tirelessly with me before my wedding and without her I wouldn’t of felt as confident as I did in my wedding dress walking up the aisle. Thanks Breda

The workouts are constantly evolving from a physical and psychological point of view as well. She understand what you're going through and that's what makes her such a good trainer.

Breda has a vast amount of knowledge and passion for personal training and overall general fitness. She takes a great interest in everyone’s own personal journey in fitness. She is incredibly generous and willing at sharing her advice and knowledge. She is always full of energy and enthusiasm even at 6am in the morning! Breda is very hard working and constantly is upskilling herself in various fitness courses. Where she finds her time and energy for everyone she works with and everything she does I will never know!

I have worked with Breda for 3 months. She is amazing! No two workouts have been the same. She brings great variety and creativity to each session. She is the perfect combination of tough (''you are KILLING me!'') and warm (''you are doing SO well''). She works with the whole person having a great creative ability and she pays close attention at all times. Her workouts are focused on the individual – she does not apply a one size fits all. She also places a high value on correct form with each exercise.An outstanding master of her craft; incredibly bright with a treasure trove of health and fitness knowledge; with a warm, spontaneous personality that make workouts fun.
She is passionate about fitness and it shows through the energy and enthusiasm she brings to every session. She makes each workout challenging, creative, limit pushing and worthwhile. She will motivate you not matter what - always driving you forward to the next level.
I recommend Breda without reservation. You can expect brilliant PT sessions and some LOLS along the way too. Wishing you continued success!

Balancing a busy family life, work & exercise!
After having two consecutive pregnancies within very close timing of one another, balancing a very busy family life with two young babies & work commitments, I opted to challenge myself in returning to exercise. I contacted Breda for inspiration & she offered me professional advice in relation to feeling body, mind & fitness ready before committing to her exercise plan. Breda advised me to wait until I was physically ready & prepared to challenge my fitness before returning in case of injury. I thought this was very sound advice & after contacting her when I was ready, she provided me with a very manageable exercise workout plan that suited my busy schedule. Breda was very aware of the post maternal repair that I wanted to focus on & adapted a very suitable yet challenging plan to focus on rebuilding core muscle & regaining fitness/cardio to my level of fitness (as well as weight loss). Each week Breda was very understanding to adapt her schedule to suit my time management needs & with regard to my workout plan by Week 3 I could certainly feel my cardio level improve as well as core exercises getting more manageable yet maintaining the challenge to improve. Breda’s level of professionalism & commitment has encouraged me & given me confidence to continually improve my fitness of which now I am running 5ks & enjoying Pilates. Thank you Breda.

I met Breda a year after my mom passed away when I was 22 years old and needed a push towards a healthy direction in my life. She became my trainer in Los Angeles and she just exuded positive vibes! During my time with Breda I started to feel so much better physically and mentally. She was always in such a wonderful mood and had such a great attitude about working out! Whenever I told her I wanted to focus on a certain area of my body she knew exactly what workouts to do. At my first weigh in with Breda I was at 145lbs (66kgs) and after training with her I weighed in at 117lbs (53kgs). She taught me how to structure a workout along with nutritional recommendations and was there to push me through it all. I loved training with Breda so much; I recommended her training to my sisters and we all became really close friends! Breda was such a positive influence on my mental and physical wellbeing, I owe all the confidence I have today to her! I would refer anyone to Breda who wants to look and feel great about themselves! Thanks to her guidance and immense support I have the body I’ve always dreamed of having!

Many people forget the importance of having a strong circle of support when it comes to the fitness industry. A personal trainer can sometimes be the vital missing piece in your fitness journey. I met Breda shortly after joining my first gym. Although she wasn’t my trainer at the time, she always went out of her way to encourage me to push myself. Breda would take time to show me new exercises in between sessions with her clients and on her breaks. It was so uplifting to have someone I just met support me, and it showed me that she is truly committed to helping others succeed. Breda is an example of someone who takes pride in seeing others reach their goals and change their lives for the better! Her fun loving personality and positivity is so contagious, and it always left me feeling comfortable and welcomed at the gym. This is was so important to me when I first joined and played a role in me continuing to go to the gym until I truly fell in love with fitness.

Breda has been an amazing support to me over my weight loss and fitness journey and we aren’t finished yet. As plus size, entering a gym environment filled me with dread. Breda has tailored a private one-to-one session based on my ability and current fitness capabilities in a reassuring and supportive manner. She has made me enjoy exercising again. I would highly recommend Breda to anyone. Her pleasant and enthusiastic demeanour is very encouraging even on your off days. I look forward to engaging with her workouts online and can’t wait to our private sessions commence again.

I am happy to say that I was very happy with Breda as a fitness coach. I enlisted Breda's help as a personal trainer last year. I found Breda to be very motivational and yet she took no prisoners in the process. Each lesson was varied and pushed me that bit more each time. I felt a great feeling of satisfaction at the end of a session and my energy knew no bounds. I had a target of my wedding and wanted to feel fit and healthy on the day. I loved the training so much that I continued on past my wedding day as I really valued Breda's knowledge and skill in the training arena. I now miss our sessions so much due to Covid 19. I have no hesitation recommending Breda as a trainer. She really tailors her session to suit an individual's ability and needs. Yet, she has a kickass, no nonsense approach.
