Why did i get into Gym Cross Training?
I typed extreme fitness into google one day and this is what it came back with.
Why world gym challenge?
I don't consider myself a runner. I have no interest in training for powerlifting or bodybuilding so it provides a focus for someone looking for all-round fitness.
Proudest achievement:
Puking my guts up half way through a Box-Fit cross training event in 2006...and finishing the course. It was like Rocky 1,2,3 & 4 all rolled into one.
Sporting achievements :
Irish Rowing Champ 2000
Completed several marathons including New York 2006
Fav food:
Most Indian Food and Chicken fajitas or anything in a fajitas to be honest
Favourite restaurant:
Any Good Indian will do. 'That's not the name of the restaraunt'
Training:
I used to do a lot of pushups, running or weights. The last year has seen more circuit type training. I'll train as often as my body will allow me. That sometimes leads to taking several rest afterwards.
Quotes:
"There is always one more" - I've been screaming it at my clients in the gym for years. I'm not sure what I mean though!
Fav film:
Justin Bieber - 'Never Say Never'....He's Inspirational...."I'm a Belieber"
What advice would you give to anyone who is thinking about trying world gym challenge: Variety and Intensity. Try all exercises when training and keep the intensity high. Even a basic exercise choice performed at a high intensity is better than the perfect exercise performed at an easy pace. |
