I am certainly very blessed to have so many family and friends who reached out to me privately and through social media. I am also very blessed to have my health and to …
Benefits of Sprint Training
I have told my clients time and time again to steer away from doing steady state cardio and lean towards interval training. Sprint training is probably one of the best forms of interval or HITT (High Intensity Training) training out there and all you need are a pair of running shoes. Check out this great article my long time client, …
Workout and Make Day to Day Activities Easier
I have numerous clients who come to me for training with a specific goal. They want to compete in a figure, physique or bikini competition, they want to lose weight, they want to run a marathon or triathlon, etc. I always think it is great that they have a specific goal or deadline, but not everyone does. For those that …

Blast Your Booty with this Track Workout
I don’t know about you, but I love taking my workouts outdoors! I spend hours working in the gym as an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer and owner of “No Mullarkey” Personal Training, so it’s nice to switch things up and hit a track workout.

Love Yourself
It’s easier said than done, Love Yourself! After being involved in the competition world since 2004, I have seen it more and more. It almost seems no matter how great a client looks and changes, they still are not completely happy with their results. We are all our own worst critics and I too have been hard on myself, but …
Bulking Up to Gain Muscle-It’s a Bunch of Mullarkey
