Rick Brennan Fitness Rick Brennan has been in the Health & Fitness industry for over 30 years as a coach and athlete I will help you make your dream become a reality!

I was overweight as a young boy and into my teenage years during this time I developed a passion for the fitness industry as this became my sole focus in order to change my life. I believe that there are many variables in life and many things that can not be controlled, however one thing that is within everyone's power to control is how much exercise they do and what food is put in their mouth. In

order to make physical changes that are long standing, one must make mental changes first in order to achieve their goals. I have had many years experience with a wide range of clientele and have seen first hand the difference that can be made in one's life. When I provide them with knowledge and encouragement along with personalised Elite Training specific to their needs, the end result is ... they achieve their goals! If you have a goal or a desire no matter how big or small that will change your life then don't hesitate to contact me.

It’s easy to view healthy habits as another thing on the to do list.
 
➡️A workout you think you don’t have enough time for 
➡️Spending the time to prep and cook nutritious meals 
➡️Trying to unwind after a long day but still have an early night

But what if you looked at it all differently?

What if training wasn’t something you had to do, but something you are fortunate enough to be able to do?

What if choosing nutritious food wasn’t about restriction, but about giving your body what it needs to thrive?

Most people don’t realise how valuable their health is until it’s taken away from them.

Your strength, energy, mobility and independence are assets. They deserve to be protected.

The goal isn’t perfection, it is to appreciate what your body can do today and make choices that help you keep it for as long as possible.

I want you to think about something for a moment.

We often tell ourselves that improving our health requires hours we simply don’t have. Between work, family, commitments and everything else life throws at us, looking after ourselves can feel like just another thing on an already full list.

But when you actually break it down, the time required is surprisingly small.

A 45 minute workout, 30 minutes spent making better nutrition decisions (meal prep for the week or cooking your own meals), 20 minutes dedicated to recovery and 10 minutes to reset your mindset adds up to less than 8% of your day.

Less than 8%.

What fascinates me after more than 30 years of coaching is that these habits don’t just improve the small percentage of time you spend doing them. They influence everything that comes afterwards. The workout affects your energy and mood. Quality nutrition improves how you think, recover and perform. Recovery helps you keep showing up consistently. Mindset influences the decisions you make when you’re not that motivated.

The challenge has never really been about finding the time. It’s more about recognising that a relatively small investment each day can have a profound impact on the quality of the other 92%.

Nobody needs to be perfect. It doesn’t mean you need to spend hours every day in a gym. But if you’re waiting for a season where life becomes less busy before you prioritise your health, you may be waiting a very long time.

Sometimes the biggest changes come from protecting a small percentage of your day and allowing those habits to compound over months and years.

After over 30 years of coaching, I see more often than not that people are looking for solutions in the wrong places.

They are searching for the next breakthrough or quick fix, while overlooking the habits that have the greatest impact on their energy, body composition and long term health.

I’ve seen remarkable transformations happen when people stop chasing complexity or short term wins and become consistent with a handful of fundamentals.

These are the five things I would focus on first if I had to rebuild my strength, energy and health from the ground up.

Genetics is part of the story, but not the whole story. I had two heart attacks at 51 and 12 weeks later I crossed the line at Ironman 70.3. Some would say I am crazy, but I have always been wired to push myself out of my comfort zone and instead of accepting the easy option I choose to do hard things.
 
The thing nobody wants to hear about epigenetics is that your genes don’t write the ending, it’s actually how you live that does. The food you eat, how you sleep, if you strength train, the hard conversations you keep avoiding, the walks you skip because you can’t be bothered, wine that’s slowly become a nightly habit. All of it speaks to your genes.

The next time you catch yourself saying “it’s just my genetics”, ask yourself what you have been avoiding instead. That’s usually the real answer. The hard things you do aren’t punishment, they are the investment in your future self.
