what makes us different
The values we live by
Philip's top ten Fitness tips:
Water
Drink 500ml of water every morning.Drink at least one litre of water throughout the day.Opt for water, milk, or unsweetened juices to stay hydrated and support your overall health. Limit consumption of sugary and carbonated beverages. Minerals add to your weight gain not your weight loss.
Flexibility & Mobility
10min of flexibility & mobility every morning (to advance and promote your training program & reduce everyday injury, inc work)
Weights
Strength training twice a week is crucial as we age, especially after 40. It builds muscle, ligament, and tendon strength, while boosting bone density for a healthier, more robust body. Investing in your physical well-being pays dividends in the long run. A strong body is a health body!
Breathing & Control Exercises
Such exercises as Pilates are a powerful workout that strengthens, lengthens, and tones the body through precise movements, controlled breathing, and proper alignment. Commit to two 30-minute sessions per week for a strong, flexible, and supple physique.

Workouts

Remember: When we invest in our personal strength & fitness program, we are investing not just in our physical body appearance but also our emotional and mental well being.

September is the perfect time to reset routines and put personal wellbeing back on the agenda. PH Fitness focuses on realistic, sustainable progress through structured training, accountability and individual support, helping people build confidence, consistency and a healthier weekly rhythm.

PH-FITNESS takes on an epic two-lap challenge through the Slieve Bloom Mountains in aid of Dogs Trust Ireland. Covering approximately 160 km with almost 3,000 metres of climbing and eight major climbs, the ride will test endurance, strength and determination across some of Ireland’s toughest roads.
The second lap will also pay tribute to cycling legends Eddy Merckx, Sean Kelly, Francesco Moser and Freddy Maertens, with Phil wearing iconic jerseys associated with each rider. A demanding day in the saddle, driven by a lifelong love of road cycling and one very important cause.

Pilates in Ireland: building strength, balance and confidence through controlled movement

There was a time when many people believed fitness had to look a certain way. It had to be hard, fast, sweaty, strict, and almost impossible to keep up with when real life got busy.
