Training Philosophy
As a health leader, it's my goal to turn my client into an health leader as well. Prior to becoming a trainer, I was an athlete and my health leaders were my coaches. They guided me to get in the best shape to be able to perform at the given sport.

Typical Training Session
Achieving your goals is the highest priority for me. With this in mind, I will be changing and adapting the program as your body adapts to it. My mission is to provide a product that will give you a newer, fitter version of yourself! We will be mapping out the time you need to achieve these goals. My programs will utilize all modalities of training from body weight to resistance training techniques with different methods like circuit training, interval training, and more! I add cardio programming, core stability, flexibility and mobility sessions and recovery strategies to refresh the body and mind after each training session.
Client success story
Here’s a success story from my former client, Jackie:
Malachy is a great trainer! There was not a session where I didn’t feel like I was pushed to my limit. He noticed when I was actually giving it my all and when I was being lazy. I learned new exercises and have implemented them into my workouts on days I wasn’t working out with him. I definitely recommend him as a trainer. He implements various exercises into your routine that will give you the results you’re looking for. During my time with him I saw an improvement in my endurance and strength. You won’t regret working out with Malachy. Be ready to sweat!!!
Hobbies
I like to watch documentaries, sports games, and play video games. I also host social events.
