Episode Synopsis

Welcome to this latest episode with fitness trainer Ruairi Davies. From a dream job training elite rugby athletes in Chile to a lockdown-enforced return home. He thought he would return 2 weeks later (a familiar tale) but that didn't happen and his career took a new focus. What he has learned and keen to share is: ·       You can have a grand plan but that can change in an instance; don't panic because things do work out ·       Only control the controllables ·       Physical and mental health go hand in hand – you can't have one without the other ·       Exercise gives you more than physical benefits – it creates social connections ·       Just 10 minutes of activity a day can be enough. ·       Why an 80 year old called him a miracle worker   Ruairi's what 3 words to describe his road to success, balance and happiness ·       Health – no surprises there ·       Limitless – don't set self-limiting beliefs and go for what suits you and your lifestyle ·       Courage – take that leap even if it's just a step, or a commitment to do something.
