Meet Oscar, a student, who also plays GAA. Being a student with fitness goals can be difficult to juggle. As a GAA athlete, one may expect to be in a position whereby gaining muscle and strength is difficult, if not impossible (cardio kills gains, so they say). Along with this, the thought of weight gain compromising performance on the pitch can scare athletes. Oscar demonstrated that this is, in fact, not the case. His work ethic and diligence in following the programme allowed him to consistently progress throughout the 6 months we have been working together. The end result is a stronger, more muscular body, with less body fat and more potential to perform on the pitch.

And guess what? He is the exact same weight in both photos. 75kg before, and after.

Here is what he had to say…

“I’ve been coached by Gary online for close to 6 months now. Being on college placement at the time I wanted some accountability and to have my programs planned out for me. I play football so Gary tailored the program to suit my needs. For the first few months I was tracking calories and macros, over time then I have moved on to more habit-based nutrition goals, which I have found has let me have much more freedom nutrition wise.

My performance has improved hugely on the field this year, I was able to get through much more work during matches/trainings and my recovery was much better after the sessions. I've had a great coaching experience with Gary, from tweaking my program to answering endless questions with crazy detail backed up with research to helping me in lots of areas beyond just training and nutrition. I couldn't recommend him and the coaching service more to be honest. If you want to invest in yourself long term then definitely get in touch with Gary and Triage Method.“

I look forward to helping Oscar throughout his offseason.
