منذ 22 weeks41:03

41:03

Today's guest is Darina Dunne. Darina is a cornerstone in the Irish fitness community and has probably done more for the industry than any of us will ever know. Darina and her husband Jamie are responsible for the filthy 150. This is Ireland's largest crossfit competition and at one stage was one of the biggest sanctioned Crossfit events in Europe. They run multiple gyms around the country and now Darina is lobbying the Irish Government through the Irish Physical Activity Alliance. Their goal is to make gym memberships tax refundable as part of the Med1 health expense form. Darina is doing all of this while having a full time job in the pharmaceutical industry, she has unbelievable drive and is the perfect person to make this happen. Darina is armed with all the facts around the importance of fitness and exercise to improve the population's health and how governments can actually save money in the long term by keeping people out of hospital beds and nursing homes, all while promoting health & exercise. We are an ageing population and the numbers do not add up when it comes to the management of our elderly. We simply cannot provide the beds that are needed to meet the supply but Darina and the IPAA know that exercise, fitness and education are the only way to combat this problem in the long term.

Today's guest is 6 times Crossfit Games athlete Emma McQuaid. Emma is an extremely competitive athlete and has just recently qualified for the 2024 Crossfit Games in Fort Worth, Texas. Emma has been competing in Crossfit for 10 years and qualified for her first games after only 2 years of training and she has been up there with the best ever since. It hasn’t always been a series of highs for Emma. She talks about an unfortunate life changing accident to her now husband, which led her to leave the sport of quad bike racing. This was the sport that she grew up with and had competed in for most of her life. This resulted in losing a professional contract, however, it was this very change that led her on a path to a successful Crossfit career. Emma has a very relaxed approach when it comes to her training, she just simply follows her plan and gets it done. If she’s done the work and somehow avoided injury, then that’s all she can do. We’re excited to see Emma compete at the 2024 Crossfit Games and want to wish her the best of luck with the competition and prep which is now underway.

She is also founder of the Leap Academy which offers accredited health and fitness courses with elite trainers such as herself and Bradley Simmonds.

Talilla is a real go-getter with tons of energy and her aim is to allow people to connect through fitness. She talks about the importance of finding your tribe and the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people, where there is no judgement, no pressure and where people can work on being themselves.

On this week's episode co-founder Diarmuid McSweeney sits down with Mark O’Malley. Mark is owner and founder of Wilder Wellbeing, a fitness group based in Salthill, Galway which won Best Drop-In Fitness Class at our Make Life Richer Awards. His passion is to help people create healthier and happier lives filled with movement and energy – with a little bit of Wildness sprinkled into the mix! Mark talks about his fitness journey, from struggling with depression and weight gain in his late teens and how he used go for a run with a packet of cigarettes in his pocket and a litre of Lucozade in hand and how he used to keep his hood up so nobody would see him, to how he stuck with the process, educated himself in all things health and fitness, which helped to turn his life around. Mark offers some great insights into the fitness world and shares that it’s not all about pushing clients to breaking point but sometimes a bit of empathy is needed to get the most of people. Having been through a tough situation himself, Mark feels he is qualified to offer such support to clients and it’s this fine balance between pushing and empathy that makes Wilder Wellbeing so unique. If you’re ever in Galway you should definitely swing by for a class. Hope you enjoy! Find out more on: www.gympluscoffee.com…

On this week's episode co-founder Diarmuid McSweeney sits down with Kyla Cobbler. Kyla is a stand up comedian from Cork who is currently living in Barcelona and specialises in observational comedy. She started comedy during lockdown doing skits on social media and eventually branched into stand up comedy. A lot of Kyla’s sketches focus on what it’s like dating in a foreign country, particularly while sober and the weird and whacky people she meets along the way. If you haven’t seen her skits make sure you check out her instagram. Kyla talks about her sobriety journey and how she has decided to change her life for the better. She tells us about how performing sober was like starting from scratch all over again but it made it a much better experience. She also tells us how sometimes you need to ditch friends that aren’t aligned with you and the relief and positivity that comes with doing just that. Kyla is an incredibly open person and talks about how her new lifestyle sometimes makes her feel lonely. However, she is positive that things will change as she discovers new hobbies and surrounds herself with the right people and focuses on doing the things that she always wanted to do instead of the things society tells us we should be doing.

This week we have a very special episode... co-founder Diarmuid McSweeney sits down with Rachel Corsie. Rachel is Captain of the Scottish International Football Team where she has over 140 appearances for her country. Having trained as a chartered accountant after university Rachel talks about the similarities between her career crunching numbers and her performance on the pitch. She talks about utilising the similar attributes required such as discipline and competitiveness and explains how this helped her get to where she is today. Rachel’s career highlights include playing in the US for 7 years and helping Scotland qualify for The Euros in 2017 and the World Cup in 2019. This was Scotland's first time qualifying for both competitions. Rachel is passionate about health and wellness and looking after herself. She admits she finds it hard to switch off as a captain, as many of her duties are performed off the pitch but she manages to destress on the squash court with her fiancée Lisa and nerd out on making great coffee. We caught up with Rachel when she was in Dublin doing broadcast work for the World Cup on RTE. Hope you enjoy! Find out more on: www.gympluscoffee.com…

This week we have a very special episode.… co-founder Niall Horgan sits down with Rhys McClenaghan. This episode was recorded way back in December, when Niall was hell-bent on trying to beat guests at games of Jenga, so some of the references to times and events may seem a bit out of date. In this episode we get a rare glimpse into Rhy’s life and the work that goes on behind the scenes to become a world champion and Olympic athlete. Rhys talks about his passion for the sport and the sacrifices he has made to pursue his gymnastics dream. He talks about his disappointment in the Toyko Olympics and how the margin for error is so small that a simple finger a couple of millimeters out of place brought his whole routine crashing down. One of the most impressive things about Rhys is his optimism and work ethic. He is very open about his disappointment immediately after the Tokyo Olympics, but in true Rhys style all he wanted to do was get back training and flip that disappointment into motivation to be ready and better for next time. For those listening to audio only and wondering what all the pauses, laughs and loud noises are, just remember this was recorded over a very intense game of Jenga. I won’t spoil who won, but let's just say it was the guy who played the clarinet. Hope you enjoy! Find out more on: www.gympluscoffee.com…

On this week's episode: co-founder Diarmuid McSweeney sits down with Dwayne Edgar from Inner City Running Club. Inner City Runners were the winner of The Best Community Fitness Club at our Make Life Richer Awards. The group was set up over two and a half years ago. Dwayne used lockdown as an opportunity to do something positive and get fit and as healthy as possible. After a video of Dwayne and his running went viral overnight, he decided to make a proper go at it and set up the group. As he says himself they nearly spread quicker than COVID itself. The group runs 3 days a week and is open to all abilities. Everyone is welcome and they don’t care about times, the only rule is once you start you have to finish. As you will hear it’s a rule that Dwayne came to regret when doing the Madrid Marathon. They have big plans to run events in the city and surrounding areas but as you will hear there are a few hurdles to jump over first. The ethos of the group is to get people active in the community and the lads are firmly on their way to doing just that. They now have their own clubhouse and gym to help their members reach their goals. There is a great social element to the group and as Dwayne mentions the most important thing for the group is to have fun. This is something we can firmly agree on. Hope you enjoy!
