Orla - YourGym Client of the Month | September

Orla has now become an inspiration to a lot of people. She will be the first to admit she is not used to taking orders, but she has done all we have asked of her and more. 

Like with any change, there may be some resistance, but she has learnt to love the process. When we first started Orla, she was low on strength, lacked basic mobility and was not very active. The goal was to change how she looked and getting her fitter. Now she has been training with YourGym for six months, she has gone from strength to strength and we are looking forwards not back. 

My greatest moment personally with Orla came when she couldn't believe I made her buy a 16kg Kettlebell, says her trainer Joseph. In fact she could barely carry it. Now she swings it around like a paperweight and is deadlifting 60kg. Her core work is something she loves and we have worked hard on developing a rock solid core, which is something she definitely didn't have when we first started. 

She is the first to admit she has stayed in the gym until 10pm doing her homework and walking the extra steps. What is even better is that she has set her own goals along the way and challenges friends. Orla is competitive too. 

Last but not least, Orla told us she is off medication to control her blood pressure. It shows what changing a lifestyle can do. We couldn't be more proud of the results.

Congratulations Orla and keep up the great work!
