We're on a solo ramble chat down the multiverse of fitness, sports, strength and conditioning and kendrick lamar today

I'm new to this soliloquy craic so I hope ye enjoy it

Sound lads!

Winter time = time to go full Rocky 4 baby...

This short solo podcast goes out for anyone who's in the offseason now, regardless of whether it's GAA that you play or not. 

I'm making a big push on these shorter solo episodes and I love hearing about what you fuckers would like me to cover in an episode so feel free to send questions and ideas my way. 

Let's take that health, fitness and performance of yours to a higher level our kid!

Cross-border cooperation continues with this meeting of Team Torres teammates from both sides of the imaginary line. Between myself and himself the ADHD be strong in this episode...

Yannick is a combat sport nutritionist hailing from Newry Co. Down who has a big background training and competing himself before beginning to help fighters with their weight cuts and grubbing to fuel performance.

He works with athletes in MMA, Boxing, Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu and even has a couple UFC weight cuts in his resume with Irish fighter Rhys McKee. He's got a big pool of athletes that he works with and it's safe to say you'll be seeing his name pop up in the future with the talent he's currently working with.

Learn more about cutting weight for weight category sports and have a bit of craic with myself and Yannick as we go down the rabbit hole of combat nutrition...

Chris is the creative director of Zoma Branding, he runs his combat sport clothing business Coffee & Kimura’s, he’s a jiu jitsu purple belt (yup the team torres) and he’s also a good friend of mine 🤝

I intended on making this a podcast about business and marketing but it quickly descended into a ramble chat! One of the highest quality (of course) diving down rabbit holes from competing in Jiu Jitsu, UFC predictions, our current and past gym regime’s and I even managed to rope Chris into a free consultation live on the podcast 😂

If you liked the pod make sure to drop us a wee like and a comment ya sound cunt ya 🫡

Check out part I before getting into this one, but seeing as it got more great feedback than any other episode of the podcast I don't think you'll mind throwing an hour or 2 towards both parts. Here's the link to it:

You can totally transform your life when you look after yourself in a holistic way, but that all starts with your behaviours and thoughts. Easier said than done though...

BUT with expert guidance and insight from health & wellbeing boss lady Emma we hope you can piece together the puzzle or at least start the process to a happier and healthier version of you. 

I brought Emma in to run an online wellbeing workshop for the Ladies Lifting Club last year and every single woman who attended or watched the recording came away with rave reviews and plenty of actionable advice to take away with them.

Enjoy you wee fool ya!

2 hallions of the highest order meet in the same building they held the debate as to whether Ireland should accept Britain's deal to make Ireland a free state, who the fuck let us in here man?!?

Me and Lally were as surprised as each other...

The trad daddy of the Irish rap scene, Jordan Kelly AKA Strangeboy joined me in the National Concert Hall in Dublin to go down the rabbit hole and discuss rap, his upcoming album, the music industry, what keeps his head from being gone and why the fuck he keeps skipping leg day...

I also debuted a new segment for all rappers and rap enthusiasts that I'm pretty sure I should trademark for Christmas next year...stay tuned til the end to catch it 

If you claim to like rap music but haven't dug into some of our own talent here, you're a closed minded wee fool. Get digging into Strangeboy now:

"For a man to be content" - his newest tune:

If you liked this episode and you think we should do more episodes like this, let us know, share it with your mates and we'll keep the greatness moving folks!

Two short kings of the health and human performance sphere burn the ear off each other and go down the rabbit hole of injury, athletic therapy vs physiotherapy, achilles ruptures, physical preparation for GAA players and heaps more goodness avic over the course of this conversation live from Seans' rehab and performanceclinic in Dundalk.

I think because he's so good at what he does and his ability to communicate ideas is so developed I forget how young Sean is, and relatively young in the game he's in but I think this podcast gives a good insight into why I refer all my clients to him when they get an injury.

And why I went to him with my own niggles and eventual achilles rupture, more on that in the episode...

Go follow @sohrehabandperformance to keep up with all Sean's goings on or to book in an initial session with him

Two cunny funts come together to bring you lols, laments and life lessons learned the hard way in this edition of our podcast journey into art, business, health and the human condition

NOTE: this podcast is from 2 years ago, for a number of reasons it got lost in the hieroglyphs of my mind

Anna is an actor and stand up comedian by trade, and has done a whole lot more great work in the time since this was recorded with her keen eye for a laugh and quick wit

She's currently featured on an RTE series travelling the country on a massive pub crawl, just in time for the 12 pubs...

Give it a listen, let us know what you thought of it and share it with your mates on d'socials n stuff plz n thanks :)

I am back again for the second episode of the podcast after almost a full year away from podcasts to bring you more interesting chats with wonderfully wild, wacky and wise folk from all walks of life

My guest in this episode is a Yogi, PT, Pilates instructor, love & relationship coach and currently a student in tantric sex/tantra, and as you can tell from her list of qualifications she likes to help people in all aspects of life so she does. Healthy bones, muscles and hearts, and a big bag full of orgasms if you're a client of hers anyway... 

She be the witch of the woods!

This one was recorded mostly for my clients to get to know their resident yogi (she records a weekly body positive yoga session for my female clients to do in their own time for those spiritual gangsta gains) and also to learn more about yoga and hear about other aspects of health that they may be neglecting. But it was a great chat that I think anyone interested in health, coaching or spirituality would enjoy. 

Let us know what you thought over on Instagram!
