“The best there is. Started with Ruairi as a complete beginner and he has genuinely changed my life. Ive never once felt restricted and he has a genuine interest in helping people and takes time to actually teach you about health and fitness, instead of just telling you what to do. He teaches you about consistency and sustainability, no quick fixes! Couldnt recommend him highly enough!”
- Megan
“Ruairi was so professional in every aspect of his coaching but most importantly he was genuinely interested in the person in front of him. Everyone has different abilities and goals but Ruairi made you believe in yourself. He'd encourage you out of your comfort zone but also knows just how far to push you. He's a first class trainer.”
-Monica
Ruairi is the most down to earth trainer I've had with a no judgement and no bullshit approach to fitness and weight loss. He makes calorie deficits and nutrition while training make sense.

Fantastic coach. So much knowledge and able to explain it in a way that’s understandable. Really helping me through a binge eating problem I have the last 2years, making my relationship with food better and getting more active slowly. Encourages even the smallest victories which is so lovely.

‘‘I have been beating myself up the last few days. Was struggling with my mental health and grief. Wasn’t doing any exercise and I was comfort eating. I have suffered with my weight for years. Tried every fad diet going. Shakes, pills, egg diets etc. Joined numerous classes. Never stuck at anything put the weight back on and more. Then I was lucky enough to hear about Ruairi at Fitlife Coaching. Ruairi helped me in so many ways. I started to change my mindset and stop obsessing about the word diet. Healthy eating and exercise are now a huge part of my life. Helps me both physically and mentally. Obviously I still have bad days even weeks. But I just remind myself how far i’ve come . I’ve lost over 2 stone. My fitness level is the best it’s ever been. The situation we’re in at the minute (covid19) is really going to test me. Thanks to Ruairi’s online coaching and support I will get through it.’’- Tracie
What some of our clients say:
“I’ve met a lot of PTs that spit out the same thing, no pain no gain and no meals after 6pm etc. Ruairi is more realistic. He works with your current lifestyle, in the moment, even if its ever changing! Hes insanely informative- without all the PT lingo that us regular folk dont get and explains everything thoroughly. Hes taught me about diet and exercise in a way others couldnt and I put it down to the fact that he cares. He personalises every session so when you start comparing or doubting yourself he reminds you how far youve come, mentally as well as physically. His energy and teachings are things youll take away with you long after the session has ended. Couldnt recommend a more professional or down to earth PT!”

“I got referred to Ruairi through a family member & a friend. I achieved the best results I had ever achieved while coaching with him. So down to earth and easy to get along with. I felt no pressure from him but achieved what I wanted. There was no crazy restrictions and more of a long term consistent approach which I found worked the most! Absolute expert knowledge & knows what he’s talking about. Very understanding, I definitely found there was no one size fits all with his work! Amazing value for money and you can just tell he’s in this for the passion & wanting to help others.. 5 star experience!”

I have been working with Ruairi for nearly a year and I have a big improvement in my training. Using his app makes it easy to track your workouts and progress. Ruairi is very approachable and he has changed my calorie intake a number of times as my lifestyle/work changes, and I have still been able to increase strength and muscle through his guidence. Would highly recommended.

‘‘Ruairi , doing your online coaching has helped me so much . Already after 4 weeks I'm seeing a difference and feeling great , full of energy and enjoying the workouts you have taken the time to make sure what is right for me and the equipment I have to use from home. I love how we are able to contact you with any questions we have and when you organise one and one call to see how we are getting on and if we have any issue which I had and you fixed it straight away. Keep up the amazing work you are doing.’’

‘‘My online coaching experience has been a brilliant one. Ruairi is brilliant at what he does. He is approachable and knowledgeable. He provides you with just the right amount of encouragement and accountability. His approach is very easy to follow and to implement without having to drastically change your lifestyle. Therefore making it sustainable. He is understanding and realistic about the ups and downs that you may face while providing you with solutions and reassurance in order for you to improve or overcome any issues. "Trust the process". The app works really well. It's very easy to navigate and Ruairi is very present and accessible on it. I love that the workouts are so personalized and it's very easy to monitor your progress as all the information is saved from the previous completed workouts. The app is a good source of motivation in many ways. It provides reminders to complete your workouts, along with the satisfying function of ticking off the workout when completed. It also syncs to your Fitbit and Fitness Pal apps making you more aware of your steps and calorie intake. I would definitely recommend Ruairi as a coach. I'm very grateful to him for the progress I've made over the past few weeks and I look forward to continuing the process.’’

‘‘Just to let you know that I had to pop into work yesterday for a meeting and when I arrived the amount of compliments I got on my weight loss. i had not set foot in work for 6 weeks it was the first time they had seen me since. I was over the moon about this and it’s all down to you and your amazing online coaching. THANK YOU.

I have been with Ruair for over 3 years now. He was recommended to me by a friend. I was anxious about joining a new Gym as I had bad experiences before. After meeting with Ruair he offered for me to join in on a few classes before decided on anything. I have never looked back since. I have completed two Tough mudders ( never thought I would ever do that). Some of my daily walks are 10k. I had always had weight problems and due to suffering from depression and anxiety I found it even more difficult. Ruair being an advocate for this helped me immensely as he understood it's that bit harder some days and never put pressure on me. I am doing Ruair's online coaching at the moment due to lockdown but he is still as supportive, knowledgeable and Passionate as always. I would highly recommend Ruair he is not just a Gym instructor/ personal trainer/ online coach, he is an all round Genuine, lovely Guy. He doesn't just tell you what you want to hear to get your money. He supports you honestly all the way to reach your goals.”

Ruairi is a great trainer. He knows what hes talking about, as for weight loss- he has explained how to be in a calorie deficit and if you were to have some treats/drinks or a takeaway at the weekends, to keep some calories from each day so you can enjoy yourself, so your not restricting constantly because its not sustainable. Hes so motivational, makes you concentrate more on how you feel (ex: do your clothes feel less tight etc) More than what the scales says! Highly recommend everyone to go to him for 1 to 1 training or Classes, whichever your comfortable with because you wont regret it! He reminds you how good exercise is for your mentality aswell! 10/10 recommend!- Anonymous
‘‘I really enjoyed my online coaching experience. Its the first time i have done this and was unsure if it would work for me. However ruairi is constantly there for any guidance or questions you may have and is great at motivating you. The group is also very helpful were we can all connect with people who are on a fitness and health journey like ourselves. Workouts are updated to constantly push you more. I have lost weight but more so i can see my body changing and toning up. For the first time i could properly use kettlebells and weights and can definitely see the definition in my arms and shoulders. I have learned how to eat within my weekly calories and still be able to enjoy life and have my drinks or treats when I wanted to. I would highly recommend this online coaching programme.’’

‘‘I highly recommend Fitlife. Ruairi is a fantastic personal trainer. I can't believe how strong & fit I've become in the short space of time. Ruairi is extremely knowledgable & motivating. So glad I made that move to join Fitlife, every week I'm improving & getting stronger.’’
- Mairead
‘‘I just wish i started doing this so much sooner. Heres to another 8 weeks thanks so much Ruairi the sessions do be brilliant, tough but brilliant!! My confidence is starting to come back and i’m feeling so good in myself, fantastic trainer, big thank you’’
- Shauna
I love everything about Fitlife.
I love it. Its very tailored to your own lifestyle, not 'cult like' which i can find with some fitness groups. I love all the workouts and planner, makes it easy to plan your workouts to fit your week, some weeks are more hectic than others so I like that I can move my workouts around. The workouts are quick snappy and effective and the videos are brilliant and have definatly helped me gain more confidence to workout in the gym because I feel I know what doing. Ruairi is a lovely person too with serious passion for what he does, you can tell he has a genuine interest for the well being of others and wants to help people become their best.
