Our Success Stories

My name’s Gerry Maguire. I was born in 1963, and I’m a bar manager.

I joined the DMC Fitness about 11 years ago. I joined to get fitter and I had a few injuries that were causing problems. I was recommended to join Davie at DMC, so I did.

The impact that DMC has had on my life is that I’m physically stronger and mentally in a better place. I’m making the right choices in my lifestyle. And injuries are few and far between because I’m training with the best.

My weak points are stretching, warming up and cooling down. All of the things that prevent injury. DMC are big on that but I’m not very happy doing it because I’m 60 years of age and I find it hard to do it. However, I’m working on it and I’m getting better.

I first came 11 years ago and I lost four stone in the first six months to a year. I maintained that for three or four years and then Covid hit.

Covid had a terrible impact on my life because I just didn’t train. I couldn’t come to DMC. Trying to do it in the house just wasn’t the same, I was not as motivated. So for two years, very little exercise was done.

I’ve put a couple of stone back on and since COVID ended and started back training. It’s gradually coming off. I took a stone off last year.
