No Limits - MY HEALTHY WEEK

So over the festive period we over indulge, it's only natural and it is totally acceptable - in my eyes - to eat Ferrero Rochers for breakfast, lunch and dinner - but we all, or most of us, end up hating ourselves for adding a little to the belly section, the Festive Pudge I call it. So I decided to get back on track with the help of Daniel McCaffrey of No Limits Fitness & Strength!

Who are No Limits Fitness & Strength?

Originating in his Mum and Dad's garage Dan McCaffrey had gone on to build one of Belfast's most inspiring and creative gyms - Dan combines a real interest in his clients goals/lives while offering nutritional advice, insanely fun (yet bloody hard) classes and a NO NONSENSE approach to getting fit, staying fit and becoming more healthy. MOTIVATOR is a great word for Dan, each member of the gym is given personal interest, encouragement and guidance - they are set goals, engaged with and supported which is why he has built brilliant business.

What to expect at NO LIMITS - a new approach to training, classes are short and intense, 30minutes of graft where you don't have time to hide, and if you do - you soon get found out. Kettle-bells, bodyweight exercises and the dreaded prowler are all present in most classes. Even in the week I spent there the was a real sense of togetherness, almost like a family atmosphere where everyone talks to each other, motivates one another and this is where NO LIMITS stands out.You can also enrol your kids at the much talked about and ever growing KidsFIT to introduce them to mixing exercise with fun!

The Healthy Week

So myself and Dan got together to talk about a more healthy approach to eating, effective workouts for fat loss and how to stay motivated - motivation for me, and I'm sure most of you is why we often find healthy eating and exercise so hard - for this reason myself and Dan decided to create healthy, but super tasty meals mixed with short 30 minute group exercise classes.

The Meals

My first healthy meal of 2017 - hopefully this can continue a bit! #moobsonshow #healthyfood #stirfry #food #yummy #tasty #dietfood #begonec

Still on track - well..

January Health Kick__Dinner tonight was grilled chicken breast, Wholegrain rice and quinoa topped with spinach and salsa

Lunch today was Cajun seasoned chicken with sesame seeds for added crunch - with a side salad! Tasty and healthy - I will defeat these moobs

My take on 'Subways' meatball marinara! A healthy version making the most of simple ingredients, lean mince (5%) and a sprinkle of love! #he

Sooo tonight was still healthy - but to be honest not as tasty 😩🙈😔 I think I needed an extra texture, raw red pepper would have been a god s

Dinner number 2 on my Health Kick 🏋🏻‍♀️ Chinese 5 Spice Chicken Stir Fry - with mixed peppers, served with Rice Noodles and Spinach 💪🏻 Befor

Dinner tonight__Rump steak cooked medium rare served with green beans and baby boils! This was sensational!__#tasty #foodporn #food #foodies

The Classes

Over the week I attended group training classes - all were High Intensity Interval Training - circuit based activities! Again 30 minutes is all it took, surely we can all make time for that? So the classes were fun, I learnt some new exercises (and muscles) met some friends and even lost a little weight!

If you are looking to shift the Festive Pudge, what to try a new exercise program or even just want some advice get in touch with Dan at No Limits Fitness & Strength - his range of knowledge is superb and I am sure he can help you. Friendly, Motivating and a Gentleman with a ferocious drive and excellent gym.
