By far the best decision I will have made in 2022 is to join Mercury Fitness, and I'm confident enough to say that in only May! I suffer with an underactive thyroid and lost my motivation during Covid lockdown to try break the cycle of a slow metabolim and perpetual weight gain and huge loss in self confidence. I thought the best thing to do would be to join a fitness class that would stop me from just wandering aimlessly at the gym, which is so easy to do. I found Mercury on Facebook and had to send Jason a message to find out more. Mercury has turned out to so much more than just a class, its a team that goes above and beyond to be supportive to each and every member. Its a fun, social way to get healthy! Looking forward to workout classes? who would have thought it! Classes are fun! and expertly lead by a fantastic team of instructors who are friendly, encouraging and genuinely rooting for you to do your best! Having completed the 6 week challenge I couldn't just walk away having lost more weight than I had managed in the 5 years post thyroid diagnosis! I couldn't recommend Mercury Fitness enough! I can promise you it's so worth investing your time into yourself via Mercury!! If youre reading this, Go for it!

So, about 5 months off work with Covid, led to an almost 3 stone weight gain, it had been coming off slowly once I returned to work. What I hadn't really realized was how much my fitness and strength had waned, until I helped a guy push his wife's car about 7 weeks ago. It took me about 5 minutes to recover 😂. Then the opportunity with Mercury Fitness landed on my Facebook that night and I thought, why not? First night at Ward Park was extremely tough and I wondered what had I gotten into, but with super instructors and a great bunch of people, it made me determined to hit the 6 weeks as hard as I could. The classes, all outdoors, were great but hard work, and it wasn't long before I started feeling fitter and stronger. The meal plan was easy to follow and never felt hungry. I'm so glad I challenged myself over the 6 weeks to keep pushing harder and thanks to the support of the trainers and my group, I'm now down 24lb, dropped 5.1% body fat and 4 points down on visceral fat. Thank you Mercury

Genuinely life changing experience! Having just completed the 6 week challenge I feel like a new man altogether. Amazing instructors who can't do enough to help you at any stage. Previously I have had major surgery which had left me with some mobility problems and also knocked me further out of shape and confidence; the trainers all helped me massively by tailoring exercises and classes to make sure I wasnt doing anything potentially damaging while at the same time being able to push myself and by the end of the 6 weeks I saw huge changes in my fitness levels, my strength, my weight and very importantly in my confidence. I approached this bootcamp with a level of anxiety around how I would be able to keep up with others and if I would even be able to finish it... I finished it knowing that between the change in my approach to diet because of the trainers, my approach to exercise because of the trainers and my new found self belief because of the trainers - the limits I had in my head before have been utterly shattered! I can't recommend this program enough - even if you feel like you have lower levels of fitness or you have a knock or physical issue, these guys will make a new you! Thanks so much Mercury for everything!

I completed my 6 week MFNI transformation on Sunday 13 Feb. I started on 3 January 22 very overweight and unfit. The classes were hard, the 1st class I didn't feel fit enough to complete the warmup but I kept going and by the 4th week I was surprised by how well my body was responding to the fitness routine. To give you an idea about where I was, I joined a gym in August 2021 knowing I needed to change my lifestyle, paid all the fees but it wasn't until I started the Mercury 6 week challenge in Jan 2022 that I attended the gym for the 1st time. The result of the challenge is that I lost 19.4lbs in 6 weeks, feel fitter, trousers now button again and I feel like training regularly. Over the next 6 weeks I want to lose another 15lbs and I believe I will do that thanks to MFNI. It doesn't matter what age you are, I'm 57, take up the challenge and you'll never look back. Good luck

I've just completed my 6 week challenged with Mercury Fitness N.I. I've really enjoyed it!!! The classes are varied and fun. The trainers and people are so encouraging and motivating! I've never enjoyed exercise but this bootcamp has really changed my attitude towards exercise and food. I've really loved working out in a group and outside. Thank you to all of the trainers and the wonderful Bangor crew!!!! I'm excited to continue with Mercury Fitness as a Veteran! 😁💪

I have absolutely loved my time with Mercury Fitness. I joined after not training for two years and only wanted to improve my fitness, I got so much more from it. The Mercury community helped me get healthier and happier, as well as giving me the confidence to get back into sport and push my own fitness levels. I’ve genuinely loved my time with Mercury and couldn’t recommend it enough. Massive thanks to Jay and the team, especially for how they have managed continuing to motivate and support people during 2020.

Completed the 6 week boot camp with Mercury Fitness. I have really enjoyed the whole programme, the instructors are great craic and encourage you to push yourself. The first couple of weeks were a shock to the system but once you get going it all gets alot easier and you can really see the results. The best bit about it is that it's all outdoor's - rain hail or shine. Big thanks to the Mercury Team as in short space of time I increased my fitness, improved my health and hit the goals! 20lbs lighter!!

Never did I think I would enjoy exercise but Mercury Fitness has changed my mind. Best bootcamp by far. Just completed my 6 week challenge and I can’t recommend it highly enough. I've seen a huge difference in my fitness, and mentally feeling better. Classes are always enjoyable and fun. Everyone is friendly, encouraging and supportive. Jason and his team off instructors always there to give you the motivation you need.

I started with Mercury in Nov 2020. This has certainly been a different experience for me than in the past. In the past I gave up but the PTs at mercury have made the exercise varied and dare I say fun! The other members are also great for support and encouragement when you find things tough. I still struggle with improving my eating habits but again advice is provided and some great recipe ideas. Lockdown has been tough but the team have brought great online workouts and team challenges to keep us all training and on our toes! I highly recommend Mercury Fitness NI and cant wait to continue my journey and reach my goals.

I just completed the 6 week challenge with Mercury Fitness NI. I absolutely loved the experience and have decided to stay on with the group for a year. I lost 9lbs in 6 weeks but it could’ve been more had I not let my diet slip the last two weeks of the challenge. Overall, I feel much stronger and fitter. The classes are awesome with incredible instructors who push you to achieve the best you can achieve. There is expert guidance given on how to improve your diet which was a massive change for me as I was always eating takeaways or unhealthy foods. I’ve learnt so much that the knowledge will stay with me for life. The thing that sets this bootcamp apart are the people from the instructors to the fellow members. I’ve made new friends and look forward to going to classes. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to get fit and change your life.

As someone with no experience and very unfit and out of shape I was worried about starting with Mercury as I felt I would really struggle and embarrass myself. I couldn’t have been more wrong as Jay and Pete have been unbelievably supportive throughout the whole process and make sure each session is manageable for each individual person based on their own fitness levels, while still pushing you to do better than you did the day before. There is a real mentality of care and support, and your only competition is yourself as no matter what stage they are at in their fitness journey the other members of Mercury are honestly the kindest and most supportive people you could meet. Every session is always fun and so rewarding and Pete is like having your very own cheerleader, he is everything you could possibly ask for in a trainer. He celebrates your wins with you and finds ways to adapt and push you in exactly the right ways. The nutritional package has helped me make smarter food choices, my mental health has improved leaps and bounds since starting and I have lost 21 pounds and counting! Jay tells you at the beginning to trust the process, and he is 100% right. Commit to the 6 weeks, do everything they tell you and you’ll really surprise yourself with what you’re able to do. I can’t thank Jay & Pete enough or possibly speak highly enough about Mercury, and I’m looking forward to staying on as a vet.

Not long finished my 6 week challenge with Mercury Fitness and what a fab experience it was. I lost 18lb which is a massive step towards my goals. It's not just the trainers but the mercury veteran members that give you the motivation to keep going and reach your goals. I've loved it that much I've made the decision to stay on with the mercury crew and am excited to see what I can achieve in the coming months.

I lost 19lbs doing the 6 week challenge with mercury fitness. Everyone is so friendly and encouraging but also challenge you every session. Jay is great for keeping everyone motivated. I am so glad I joined mercury fitness. I was completely new to fitness prior to joining, so don’t be discouraged if you’ve never stepped in a gym. A lot of the members are in the same boat. All the members encourage each other and I have definitely noticed a big improvement in my fitness level.

Just finished the 6 week challenge. I feel fitter, healthier and a wee bit leaner than I was at the start of this. Stopped smoking day before starting this and haven't had one since, some of that is down to determination but a lot of it is keeping my mind focused on getting myself fit and healthy through Mercury Fitness NI. Jay and the team have been amazing. Great fun, great sessions and unlimited access to their knowledge. if you haven't done something like this before I highly recommend. The team who turn up to train are all friendly and in a similar boat.....there to get fit. I've signed up to be a vet and carry this journey on.

I have just completed my 6 week challenge at Mercury Fitness NI and have lost 14lbs in total which I am really pleased with. I found the nutritional information and the accountability of your calories and work outs to be really helpful. The boot camp classes varied week on week which kept me on my toes and the home work outs are a great option too when other commitments take over. I have learnt some useful tips which I will use in the future to keep me on track.

S. G.

I started my 6 week challenge in January and we have exercised in all weathers and enjoyed every second of it. This is more a Boot camp, it is a community and we all spur each other on to keep going when we don't think we can and celebrate each others achievements. During the 6 week challenge I lost 6lbs but more importantly 43cm, since then (5 weeks) I have lost a further 17cm. I feel amazing and can feel my fitness improving week on week, I look forward to going to every class to work out and see my new friends.

G. M.

Mercury Fitness N.I. I can highly recommend joining up Mercury Fitness N.I. for their six week challenge boot camp. The Fitness Instructors are first class, always there for help and support whilst making you accountable to ensure you keep on track of your goals. Thank you for helping me reach my goals, having lost 2st in six weeks I can assure you that their program works.

f. p.

Finished my 6 week bootcamp 12lb lighter 😁 the instructors and people at the classes are what make it. such a brilliant bunch of people that motivate you and keep you laughing! I've done so many bootcamps over the years but the support you receive in Mercury is what makes it the best. the nutrition aspect is easy to follow and if you have a night out or a takeaway your not made to feel guilty about it. The whole mentaility of 'this is a lifestyle change' is really promoted and makes it so much easier to achieve. Can't recommend Mercury Fitness enough

r. g.

Just before Christmas I seen an advertisement on Facebook for a six week boot camp challenge.After meeting the team leader Jason I decided to sign up. The support throughout the whole process has been outstanding and inspirational at every turn. The online classes were great fun and motivating! After my six week weigh in I have lost a total of 25lbs!! Mercury works and gets results,highly recommended.👍👍

M. C.

I would recommend Mercury Fitness to anyone that wants to loose weight and get fit in a long-term effective way. The classes are a brilliant mix of strength and cardio. You get multiple coaches who all have a slightly different style of class so no two classes are the same. The six week challenge is not easy and does require you to put in effort, but you definitely reap the rewards. The trainers are available to you all day, everyday for support or to answer any questions you have. Most people in the classes are in the same position as you and so you really don’t feel out of place. Mercury Fitness NI recently were just awarded the best bootcamp in Ireland, so don’t just take my word for it! Thank you to Jay, Peter and Adam for helping me lose 21 lbs in 6 weeks!

S. M.

I’ve just completed my 6 week challenge and although I didn’t meet the goals I set myself, I’m delighted with my progress so far. Jay has been great and never far away when support is needed be it in the group or 1-1. The trainers are always great and out you through your paces! Looking forward to continuing my Mercury Fitness journey

J. E.

Just completed the 6 week program and thoroughly enjoyed it. I was really nervous before it and very quickly was blown away with the fun training sessions and relaxed atmosphere. No one judges and though Jay's social media members groups, everyone helps to motivate each other. I lost over 18lbs in 6 weeks and feel ready to loose more! Mercury Fitness NI is an amazing experience.

C. W.

Just finished the 6 week challenge Lost a total of 23lbs and 5% body fat Feel 100 times fitter and far healthier Working out outside is a bonus you just don’t get with a gym rain or shine it was great! First few sessions were tough didn’t think I’d make it to the end, but the Instructors get you through it and motivate you every session I lost more than I thought I could have in that space of time Amazing boot camp with great people alongside you Can’t recommend it enough Jay and the other guys know the score when it comes to getting you in In a healthier mindset and body

I have just successfully completed my 6 week bootcamp with Mercury Fitness. 😁 I can honestly say this has been one of the best and most life changing experiences of my entire life. My goals when I started was to get my fitness levels somewhere close to what they used to be. But more importantly it was to hopefully help my mental health and be able to be around people again without being anxious to the point I would make myself I'll. This was no small task and to be honest when I started I doubted I would be able to achieve any of my goals but was determined to try. But from the very start when I sat down with Jay the owner and chief instructor at Mercury fitness and discussed my goals and what I was looking to get from the course he believed in me and promised to be there and support me throughout my Journey and that is exactly what he did. From day 1 Jay was there to support and motivate me and help get over that initial first hurdle of meeting all the people on the 6 week challenge with me. From the very start I felt totally at ease something I hadn't be able to do in a long time. Once I had got over that first hurdle it was down to the business of getting fit and healthy and with Mercury fitness you get far more than any other bootcamp. From day 1 you have plan to work towards and accountability. You have a fantastic team of instructors who provide the level of training that will push every individual within the group to there limits. They are highly motivated and have a genuine desire to see everyone succeed. Every class is different, The instructors make them tough but also fun at the end of every single class you walk away with a real sense of achievement. Through the entire course you have the support of not only all the instructors who are on hand to help and offer advice pretty much anytime day or night, but also the rest of the group. With Mercury fitness you become part of a community of people who all help and support each other and I can honestly say I count myself lucky to have met such an amazing group of people. We all started the journey together and finished together. I highly recommend Mercury fitness to anyone without hesitation. Honestly folks if your looking for that kickstart to getting fitter and healthier then Mercury fitness is the place to be. Mercury fitness has a proven record of success that's why so many people including myself stay on and become a full member after completing the 6 week challenge. I am now extremely proud to call myself a Mercury Veteran. Mercury fitness has a bootcamp in Belfast, Bangor and from January 2020 Lisburn so you have a choice of locations to choose from. No other bootcamp will offer you this. This has been a game changer for me and I look forward to continuing my journey with Mercury and will hopefully see some of you there in the future.

P. M.

I would highly recommend Mercury Fitness if you are looking a team of really committed instructors to support you to break old habits and achieve your health and fitness goals. A great range of classes on offer and all available live/ on line through lock down.I lost 17 lbs in 6 weeks and feel great🏋️

I've just completed Mercury Fitnesses 6 week boot camp program where I lost 18lbs and 4% body fat. I've also gained muscle, strength, knowledge and a pretty awesome team and community for support! I've enjoyed my time so much and feel this is the place for me to reach my goals that I plan to stay for as long as I can. Mercury Fitness has very recently won Best Boot camp in the while of Ireland so that more conforms I am in the right place. The thing I like best about the group is the community, the help and support that's only a click away. If you need a kick start to yoir fitness come to the best Boot camp in Ireland. It will not disappoint!

Best bootcamp around!!!! Could not recommend these guys enough. I joined 6 weeks ago never having done any kind of exercise before but wanting something different than going to a gym and using the same mundane equipment, so I took the challenge Mercury Fitness NI set and boy was I pleased with the results, just over 18lbs off and 29 inches off my whole body in just 6 weeks! Who wouldnt want results like that! Dont hesitate, drop Mercury Fitness NI a message and get onto that fitness journey today.

M. H.

Just completed 6 week challenge and am thrilled with results. 13lb lighter, dropped 3% body fat and 20 cms. Love the outdoor classes. Tough at the beginning but well worth it. I feel fitter and stronger thanks to the instructors who are all knowledgeable and fun, pushing you on to do your best, varying class routines and accepting of different abilities. Happy to say I am staying on as a veteran. Thanks Mercury Fitness

M. G.

6 week challenge complete with mercury fitness not only am i fitter but im alot healthier and also ive lost 21.8 lbs off weight in 6 weeks. Cant recommend this bootcamp enough jay and all the instructors are amazing at what they do and they make it an enjoyable session.

G. H.

6 weeks ago I responded to an ad on Facebook for Mercury Fitness N.I. with Jason and today had my final weigh in. I was a bit unsure at the start whether or not I would be able to hit my 18lb weight loss goal. But with help from the fitness instructors and all the mercury fitness regulars I am glad to say I hit my 18lb goal. It has given me the kick start I needed to get fit again, I feel fantastic and look forward to continuing the journey as a Mercury fitness Veteran. Would highly recommend this programme to anyone looking to change their health for the better. Thanks to all the mercury fitness team and looking forward to getting fitter and loosing a few more lb's!!!

K. S.

Mercury Fitness NI is seriously a fantastic organisation! The staff are incredibly supportive and motivated to provide unique and challenging sessions. I've dropped a dress size and I'm feeling better physically and mentally. Would highly recommend this boot camp to anyone in the Lisburn area.

D. C.

Could not recommend Jay & the team enough. I was steadily gaining weight with increased work & life getting in the way of exercise & eating well and something had to change. That change came in the form of Mercury fitness!!! 6 weeks in and i have already lost 17 pounds & have the same energy levels i did 5 years ago playing rugby. For anyone who wants to get results, quickly & while having good fun - this is the place for you!

C. M.

i would highly recommend Jay and Mercury Fitness. I have just completed a 6 week bootcamp and feel amazing. I have lost 14.6lbs and 23.3 inches off my body. Jay is a fabulous instructor who knows his stuff and always has an upbeat positive attitude. No 2 classes are ever the same and target different parts of the body at each workout. The classes are fun and always have a bit of banter. The people you train along side are in the same boat as you. At the end of the sessions you feel good and feel where your muscles are (no pain no gain they say). I have signed up for the next year with Jay. Simply the best !!

A. T.

Throughout the six week transformation with mercury fitness I lost the target weight of 18lbs and I know that it was only down to the training sessions and eating plans provided by jay I had tried losing weight by myself simply going to the gym but lost motivation quickly. With mercury’s six week transformation I was in a group of people in a similar situation to myself (feeling fed up of diets and not seeing long lasting results) and the group atmosphere in the training sessions along with the group WhatsApp helped keep me on track. I would highly recommend the mercury fitness six week transformation as it has enabled me to feel good about myself by lasting weight loss. A big thanks to Jay.

Ok, I'm long overdue doing this review, but it means I can comment on some more stuff following the initial six week exercise. Firstly, my reasons for joining and a bit about me. I'm no gym bunny and I'm not super fit but I love getting to classes at the gym because I feel better exercising and most importantly it gives me head space. I really missed the classes at the gym during first lockdown. Towards the end of last year I found out about mercury (was walking dog and saw a class and just asked) and after meeting jay thought I'd give it a go for the initial six weeks (something to give a bit of structure and a boost outside of work). I was a bit apprehensive, as I say I'm not super fit and am not a runner. I wondered if I'd be able to keep up....anyway, long story short I loved it. Exercising outside is great (and I am a cold soul!). There are different instructors and venues, the instructors all have their own style and it's always different, but each and every one are great and the classes are structured and organised. There are clearly a cadre of people who are long term members and have well established relationships, but everyone was very welcoming, friendly and supportive to newbies. Most importantly, you go at your own pace. If you need to have a break, you have a break. If you can't do an exercise, you'll be given an alternative. The way I looked at it, I was doing more than I would have been sitting on the sofa! Over the course of the six weeks I lost 12lbs. Could have been more but I relaxed a bit coming up to Christmas. I was really pleased and felt stronger and fitter at the end. I've stayed on as a member because I love it so much. When the post Christmas lockdown started and classes outside ended, the classes went online and have kept me going. There have been lots of different mini challenges and charity events to keep motivation up. I've recently started another six week challenge. There's a supportive community - members and instructors - to offer nutrition and exercise advice and to help you stay on track. I couldn't recommend it highly enough and I'm so grateful to have found it. I'd encourage anyone to give it a go.

J. M.

Just finished my 6 week challenge with Mercury fitness. I reached goals I didn’t think would be possible in such a short space of time. 6% body fat gone, 17.8lbs shedded and 13.5inches lost. That’s thanks to Jay, Adam, Catherine and Peter the coaches and all of the other troops for their support and encouragement. I have never felt fitter and this has been the most fun and well structured bootcamp I have ever attended. I highly recommend getting involved, the team are amazing and you’ll get fit and enjoy every minute along the way. Honestly, it’s like one big family and there is always immediate support at the end of a call or text through your entire journey so you are never left in the dark. Go give it a whirl ✌🏼

R. Y.

So decided to make some changes in my life from crisps chocolate and generally a see food and eat it diet to @mercuryfitnessni approach. Clicked on the link one night sitting on the sofa then bang emails texts and a meeting to get an idea about the program. From signing up it was the fear of turning up at a boot camp not knowing anyone but a lot of friendly people and instructors which made you push on and achieve your goals. I found the calorie counting difficult for a few days and when I found the veg and fruit really filled you up for longer and in fact needing less food to feel better. The outdoor boot camps are amazing good variation of cardio and strength and if your lucky enough to live in Lisburn you have a guy who will bust you but take your mind off the burn pushing you in the direction you need to be in! Folks if your sitting there watching Jason’s videos and nervous to try it, don’t be 6 weeks transformed by body weight and energy levels. Give it a go and try and loose more than I did 19.6lbs and 5.9% body fat in 6 weeks. What have you got to loose except from weight and fat!

R. H.

The support from Jay and all the trainers, especially Peter, was fantastic. I have finished the 6 week challenge, but feel like I've gained a life style change. Overall I lost 13.5 inches and I feel a million times better in myself. I have more energy and see a difference in my overall mood and mindset. I couldn't say enough to thank Jay and his team for supporting me through this challenge and look forward to continue to see change in my body, fitness and ability

J. F.

I completed a six week challenge with mercury fitness in Nov/Dec 2019. The challenge is based on an array of bootcamp and boxing classes which are a mix of indoors and outdoors. I enjoyed the variation of the classes and the enthusiasm of the instructors really kept you going. There's a really broad range of fitness levels and abilities so everyone will feel welcome and able.

S. R.

I finished my 6 week challenge yesterday and I've completely amazed myself; I enjoy exercise (in fact I miss it when I don't), I'm subconsciously thinking about the food choices I'm making and I achieved my goal and more (a total loss of 19lbs). I have never enjoyed exercise but I can honestly say I belly laughed at each and every class I attended. Exercising outdoors surrounded by a community of wonderful people has so many positives; but for me, clearing the mind and improving mental health has been a biggy! I trained with the Bangor crew and I can honestly say I'm gutted I can't stay on (maybe logistics will change and you'll see me again in the future 🤞🏻). The personal trainers, veterans and my fellow 6 weekers have shown such support, encouragement, knowledge nuggets and care and I'm super grateful - you all played a big role in helping me achieve my goal.

M. K.

I just finished my 6weeks and must say I’m so happy I did this The trainers are amazing very supportive and helpful. I only attended 2 live sessions and was still able to reach my goal even beyond the target within 6 weeks I lost over 8% of body and sitting now on 15% which is absolutely amazing I feel so much more energetic was able to get perfect times while Hiking mountains without being out of breath After 3 weeks I lost 10kg of weight and 6% of body fat on the end I find out I put up back 4kg but lost additional body fat over 2% which means I put up muscle weight as I feel and look leaner this is incredible results and I can not recommend them more if you wanna get back in shape. If you decide to do it you need to follow the plan and be dedicated to reach the goal and work hard on it. The support you get is amazing so if someone is reading it and thinking about transferring your life don’t hesitate

H. H.

100% the best choice I ever made! 🥰 19lbs down in 6 weeks, I feel fitter and have more energy than I’ve had in a very long time! Mercury Fitness NI isn’t just a bootcamp it’s more than that, it’s a family; a group of awesome people who cheer each other on when you feel like giving up, people who have similar goals and people who you have a laugh with whilst meeting your goals! Jay is the best of the best! 🥇Without him and his team of awesome coaches I wouldn’t have gotten this far! With Mercury Fitness NI you get 24/7 help from not only a private Facebook page but also Jay is always there if you need him and he won’t hesitate to take your call and get you back on track. There’s a full nutrition guide, so this isn’t just about working out it’s about learning how to change eating habits and keeping the changes long term. Bootcamp with Jay is perfect for all fitness levels, shapes and sizes! I’ve achieved so many of my own goals in the last 6 weeks, I’m excited to see where I will be this time next year with Mercury Fitness NI helping me the whole way! 🏃‍♀️💪🙋‍♀️ thank you to Jay and the whole mercury family 🥰

M. S.

So six weeks is up.... a total of 16lbs 4oz off, 3% reduction in body fat and 2% in visceral. Healthier, leaner and feeling stronger. More importantly for me a complete change of lifestyle and a passion for training again. Mercury fitness has helped me feel focused and grounded during all the recent chaos. Considering we only had a couple of outdoor class boot camps before lockdown it is a real testament to the quality of the online classes. 100% recommended.. Cheers Jay and crew 👏🏽👏🏽

M. M.

I done the 6 week challenge in lockdown might I add so all virtual. The system worked well for me kept me focused and open minded about my body what I was putting into it and how to live a balanced diet life without the fear of having a bar of chocolate a beer whatever. The instructors mainly jay and neally are brilliant force you to do things the right way putting focus on your form along with pushing you to actually complete the course. Highly recommended I lost 20.6lbs in six weeks or 9.3kgs whatever way you want to read it.

P. C.

I have just finished my 6 week transformation challenge! All I can say it has been both transformative and challenging! Throughout the bootcamp I reevaluated my lifestyle, eating and exercise habits. I have loved every second of it and feel fitter, healthier and more confident as a result! The team at Mercury Fitness have adapted expertly to the current climate we all find ourselves enabling us to carry on with the classes from home. Even though the majority of my classes were from home I still felt I had the support of each of the trainers and that they were casting their expert eyes over my form and technique. I have lost 20.2 lbs in weight, nearly 3% body fat and 3% visceral fat. I am ecstatic with my results and will wear my veteran top with pride. I look forward to what's coming next with Mercury Fitness! Bring it on and let's smash this.

S. m.

I would recommend this specific fitness challenge to anyone not only wanting to lose weight, but looking to join a welcoming community as well! During my 6 week bootcamp it switched to online classes and they have been just as encouraging as the outdoor ones. There are many trainers so it is always fresh and varied exercises to keep you on your toes. It is a great feeling when you think you can't do a certain task but then you smash it !! The videos on nutrition are informative and easy to follow. The recipes given were a great help. This group helped me switch my mind frame from wanting to look my best to wanting to feel my best! Very happy I have done this. Give it a go!

I completed the six week challenge with mercury fitness in Nov/Dec 2019. I attended 3 Bootcamp sessions per week - two circuit style classes and one boxercise. The classes were varied and the instructors motivated you to do your best. Overall, working extremely hard and participating in the 6 week challenge I lost over 19lbs which I was so pleased with.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND MFNI I have just completed my 6 week challenge and absolutely loved it! Not only have I seen a massive difference in my body shape and fitness levels, but I have also lost 10lbs and feel amazing! I always struggled with motivation at the gym but at MFNI the outdoor classes are always fun and we always have lots of banter. Jay and his trainers are so encouraging and supportive, and what also makes it extra special is the other members who are all going through the same journey with you, its such a great team to be apart of!!

I started six week challenge in January 21 with the aim to lose weight. with the help of training and motivation from mercury fitness I achieved great results and highly recommended it to anyone looking to get out of bad eating habits

Just finished my 6 week bootcamp and I am delighted with my results. I lost 19lb in 6 weeks and I also feel so much more fitter. My mood has also improved and I just feel so much better at the end of the bootcamp compared to when I just started. The network and support is amazing and I highly recommend mercury fitness NI.

I signed up with Mercury Fitness NI in November, excited at the prospect of potentially losing 18lbs in the run up to Christmas. Following the calorie deficit diet, participating in 3 Bootcamp classes per week and keeping myself accountable to the Mercury fitness group weekly, I was over the moon to lose over 19lbs in 6 weeks, along with inches off my body, feeling fitter and stronger and more energised in general. The bootcamp sessions, both inside and outside were varied and enjoyable, and the trainers were great at motivating and encouraging me when I really felt like i had no more to give (especially in the pouring rain) Mercury Fitness supplied me with detailed nutritional guides and support, in the form of Facebook and Whatsapp groups to use as and when I felt like I needed to. Alongside this, home workout videos were also available to use if a bootcamp session was not feasible due to personal & family commitments.

Brilliant boot camp with a great team of instructors, all with their own varying style which mixes it up and keeps you on your toes. Classes 7 days per week at various outdoor locations. Just finished 6 wk challenge with a 7lb / 8% bodyfat loss and am continuing on as iys enjoyable, challenging and is great for both physical and mental well being!

I was sceptical going into this six week intro programme but my scepticism was soon run out of me in my first session! This was by no way going to be easy but the positive attitude and encouragement from Jay (who knows everyone by name from week one!) along with the team encouragement made me believe it was possible. My competitiveness came out in the bootcamp session with others pushing me to go that bit further. I even surprised myself by getting to level 11 in the bleep test in week4! The challenge for me was always going to be outside of the classes and tracking my calories. I had no idea what my calories were like and thought I ate fairly well. Though as I got deeper into Jays food program and from watching the live facebook videos on the Mercury facebook page, I learnt more and more about macros and getting that healthy balance and feeling satiated not just full. The end result is I lost 18.2 lbs and 5.6% body fat in six weeks. The other take away is a greater knowledge of my body and healthy eating and also my mental strength to push through to the end of a challenge and belief that I can do it! I would highly recommend anyone to strongly consider this six week challenge!

It all started with watching a simple Facebook video post. Having wanted to do something about putting on weight and being unfit I never had the push to do anything as i was always busy, working or just being lazy about it. Until one day me and the partner decided to go for a hike. This opened my eyes as after 15mins of walking up a slight hill I was done !! This was the point it clicked and I had to do something, So once home watched the PROMO video again and thought this might work so registered straight away, booked my induction with Jay and off we went. Nervous and worried that I might have to actually do exercise ! Enjoyed the induction and left smiling and motivated to get started in the coming weeks, went away and enjoyed Christmas (i ate everything in the house) then it came ,.... Day 1 ….. First Day Training … worried about joining into a new class etc was one thing but having realised that the last time I had done any form of REAL exercise was when I was in year 14 in school ! I found the instructors all very welcoming and you were not left out, you were put centre stage so you could mingle and chat. The first night I struggled and when I say I struggled I STRUGGLED. I spent more time on my face trying to do press ups that actually doing them . However the instructor and other people weren't to long in shouting and pushing me to keep going. After the first 2 classes I was done. Was getting annoyed with myself cause my brain wanted to do the class and my body was like no! Also the issues of having went from over 3k cals a day to 1800 didn't help. However cause you have already booked you classes and the instructors push you and find out when your coming etc give me the sense of right let go get it done as they where there waiting to start the class and didn't want to let anyone else down. Over the next few classes I got more into it still hated life for the 45mins that I was there. After the 2nd week it was the first time I had the (good Feeling) after working out, i could never relate the the other when they said they felt great after working out. All I wanted to do was curl up in a ball as my legs and arms where that sore ! We only got 2 weeks or so outside training then we moved to indoors. I thought that this would be worse as ill be at home in the living room however i was wrong !! The online classes are just as hard and you don't move more than 2m unless you do Neals classes and you find yourself running up and down a set of stairs 30 times in one class (sounds handy ITS NOT) plus don't think the instructors aren't watching. THEY ARE !! they make it known to, this helped me as when you think "ill stop for a second that's that second they see you so you just keep going" i needed that, i needed the push to keep going and pushing hard. Its amazing how much you work in the house with noting more than a resistance band and a set of stairs. The large group chats where good for time when you wanted something nice to eat and then you realise you cant cause your only allowed X number of calories. They soon give you plenty of ideas. The hardest most boring part for me was tracing the food, photos of the food, weekly measurement etc. however now I've done it I can see why they push it. You soon realise how much Calories is in food when you trace it. when you post your food pics and everyone else does it give you ideas for the next weeks foods, The measurements mean you can see after week 2 that there is movement without stepping onto the scales. All this information feeds back into you 3 week and 6 week weigh in where the scales tell you how well you have done. Over the 6 weeks I lost 18lb and dropped 2 waist sizes in my trousers, Cloths I thought ill never wear again i have to as noting else fits right. I.e. My suits I now look likes I've stole my dads when 6 weeks again it looked like I was bursting out of it ! So in summary - I loved it I've stayed on to progress more Hope you decide to take the plunge and well see you soon !

so I've just finished my 6 week bootcamp at mercury fitness. I was so reluctant to start, even crying in my car on the first night because I didn't want to get out of the car and embarrass myself with how unfit I was but as soon as I started I felt so at ease with not only the help of jay but also all the other members. they were all in the same boat and were amazing at giving encouragement when it was needed the most. in my 6 weeks I lost 17lb and even managed to fit into a dress I bought 5 years ago and had never worn. anyone thinking of giving a bootcamp a try or wanting to get fitter, I would highly recommend mercury fitness. I've tried many others before and never stuck to them but this was the most fun I've had doing exercise and I've even signed up for the next 6 months.

After getting a really high reading from Bupa on my Bodyfat percentage I decided I needed to do something drastic as any previous efforts to lose weight had failed. A 6 week body transformation ad appeared on my facebook with Mercury Fitness NI and from that initial consultation I knew this would he different. Jay gave me the push I needed to change my lifestyle and not just another fad diet. The bootcamp sessions are like no other always something different and fun. Great craic and the support both from Jay and the rest of the boot campers gives you that motivation needed to keep going. I couldn't recommend Jay enough, so much so I've finished my 6 weeks and have signed up for a year! The results are amazing, don't take my word for it come try for yourself you will not be disappointed!

Just Finished my Six week Challenge with Jason and really couldn't rate this Guy any higher.Ive lost 24 lbs in six weeks and there is no way i could have did this without this guy. I had been stuck in a rut after a couple of years of injuries and I can safely say I'm on the right tracks once again. Jason really knows what he is doing and makes sure you reach your goals. He really cares about your results and makes sure that he keeps accountable. No boring meal plans, no boring cardio. The bootcamp sessions are so varied that you never get bored and the recipes he provides are superb. On top of that Jason has also assembled a great team of trainers who have all pushed my body to places I didn't think it could reach. I really couldn't recommend Mercury Fitness NI any more and for anyone thinking about wether they should sign up, stop thinking and sign up, you will not regret it!

Just finished my 6-wk challenge feeling lighter, more toned and more importantly it reignited my love of exercising. I'm sleeping and mentally feeling so much better. It's a lifestyle your buying into and I can't recommend it enough. The classes are not easy but you get out what you put in. The guys are motivating and the constant encouragement is one of the reasons I've signed up to continue my journey with them. #no walking in the gym!

J. M.

This is a fantastic course to be on for anyone who is just starting off in their fitness journey and for those who want to be pushed beyond their limits. This is a course for all people and everyone is made to feel welcome and is helped to achieve their goals. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to change their lifestyle for the better. I have literally just finished the course and when I started I weighed 15st 6lbs and I've now finished weighing in at 14st 1lbs which is a loss of 19lbs. This course has given me the knowledge to change my lifestyle and given me the motivation to continue on in my fitness. I cannot recommend it more!!

A fun filled 6 week bootcamp. It surpassed all my expectations and I achieved goals that I didn’t think were possible. Definately a surefiire way to educate anyone in healthier nutritional and exercise activities. I have been running for the last 3 years and I teach Pilates but I was carrying a calf injury for 3 months prior to signing up. The exercises and nutritional advice offered allowed me to fully rehabilitate my calf and lose a total of 7.9% body fat which equated to a full stone of weight. As a result, I have become a little bit quicker with my running and it feels a bit easier on my joints as I’m not carrying as much weight with me! In addition I loved the support from both the group and the trainers in helping me to achieve my end result. Thank you 🤗

I joined Mercury Fitness NI for a 6 week boot camp not knowing what to expect from them or even myself. With targets set to acheive the game was on. The program run by Jay and his team is something else, different classes to keep you on your feet at all times. Also the outdoor gym is a great game changer too. I managed to hit my tatgets, ( well chuffed with myself ) and with the help of the instructors ( always on hand if needed ). If you are considering joining a boot camp LOOK NO FUTHER, this is THE ONE. Highly recommended, professional company and run by a professional team. Exciting and enjoyable

2months ago i was stuck in a rut of work and sleep and no get up and go to anything extra at all. I spotted an advert on facebook for Mercury Fitness NI i was nervous about putting myself out there as i suffer from ASD, depression and anxiety, but said to myself lets give it a go and i decided to get in touch. Fast forward and having completed the best 6 weeks of my last year it is hard to say how elated and eager i am moving forward. I have changed my whole eating habits and trained so hard. Jason who owns and runs Mercury Fitness NI has been an inspiration, motivator and allround great guy. I am now at a stage where i have completed a 11km run and training 4 times a week. I feel fantastic and have signed up to veteran status as want to improve further and tone up. I have lost 14llbs in weight and am so much stronger and fitter. The community spirit with everybody is great and i really do look forward to each session. Being socially awkward it has helped me meet new people and everybody works so hard every session and we support each other no matter how big or small, old or young, everybody is accepted. The hardest step is the first one, i am so glad i took that by getting in touch. Thanks Jason.

Just completed my 6 weeks with mercury fitness, who I can not recommend enough!! Although I came into it with a different reason than most I have achieved what I set out! I have a better relationship with food, healthier approach to exercise and have enjoyed the whole experience with Jay and his team! Cheers and here’s to the next steps

t. t.

I was nervous about joining as am in mid 50s and had very low level of fitness. Jay reassured me and his Bangor group is so supportive and encouraging. After 6 weeks not only do I feel so much better but my Fitbit says my heart rate is now good to excellent for my age To anyone thinking of joining - come to a taster session in Bangor - and feel the difference quickly

H. W.

I have just completed the six week challenge with Mercury Fitness and it has been fantastic. I've lost weight in a fun way but more importantly I feel better than I have in years. I would highly recommend this bootcamp.

A. H.

Haven't been to the Stormont bootcamp but am a regular at Jay's, Ward Park, Bangor bootcamp. He is a fabulous instructor who never fails to be energetic, smiling and good fun! Have been going every week (2-3 times) since early this year and no class has ever been the same. Jay has a real skill of always keeping classes varied and always makes sure we enjoy ourselves whilst getting a good workout. It's great to have an instructor who is genuinely passionate about what he does. Definitely recommend him.

K. L.

I have just completed the 6 week challenge with MFNI & have now just signed up to be a Vet member. Loved the 6 week challenge. I have seen such an improvement in my fitness levels & my body shape. Nutritionally I am in such a better place. MFNI has encouraged me to make changes for the best & for my future health. Great support from Jay, all the trainers & of course the other members. Cant imagine another bootcamp would be the same. 💪😊👋

C. P.

Just finished the six week bootcamp. If you're prepared to put the work in then it is well worth it and I would thoroughly recommend it. The instructors are all brilliant and no two classes are the same. in additional to the classes you will also get loads of helpful information on nutrition and other things. A great way to get yourself fitter!

C. M.

Joined Bangor bootcamp in July was bit nervous as hadnt exercised properly in about 5 years! The word bootcamp alone was scary! Did not need to worry ! Jay is great at making you feel at ease and everyone works to their own level. They are such a lovely bunch of people who encourage each other if they are finding it tough and enjoy alot of laughs along the way. Jay is always motivating and up beat I would reccomend mercury fitness to anyone!

W. H.

Did the six week boot camp with Jay at Ward Park in Bangor. I always struggled with motivation at the gym and found the variety of outdoor classes that he offers much more enjoyable. The nutritional support has been as important as the exercise as well and I was really pleased with the weight loss results that I achieved.

T. K.

Everything that you could ask for from a training and results based solution to be honest! Motivating and knowledgeable coaches. A high energy and friendly environment. All of the accountability necessary to ensure you keep showing up and getting results. Everything that you need to know around nutrition to start seeing changes fast. I’ve done a few group training programmes and whatnot in the past and no one lays in on like these guys.

D. S.

The past 6 weeks have flew in. This programme is amazing. Jay and his team work you to your limit them give you the strength and drive to push on and give a little more. I have grown in confidence. My physical health has not only improved but my mental health also. There is something about training outdoors with a great group of people to really boost the soul. The programme is tough and the training is brutal at times but if you believe you can achieve. The programme works. The team are incredible. Jay is the bomb. He has changed peoples lives and is in the process of changing mine. What are you waiting for. Take the next step to change your life and be the best you have ever been. 😁

K. B.

Cannot recommend the guys and girls of Mercury fitness enough, They support, encourage and motivate you throughout your journey. They will show you just how much you can get from your body.

J. H.

Absolutely love this bootcamp, the instructors are all fantastic and make every session a good work out. There is a great friendly atmosphere there and everyone is encouraging. If you want to do something this year then definitely sign up to this IU 100% recommend it.

C. M.

The program teaches you the method behind the madness, which empowers you to make your own decisions. It will allow you to develop new habits and change how you view nutrition and exercise. Life is a balance, Mercury understand that. Also their classes are some of the best fun you will have.

K. M.

This is THE No. 1 bootcamp in the country. Through Jay's 6 week program, I have lost 24 lbs and have completely changed my lifestyle. This is more than a few exercise classes, this is a community of like-minded individuals who support each other. Not only that, but this is a hell of a lot of fun. Definitely get in touch.

L. L.

6 weeks ago i challenged myself to @mercuryfitnessni 6 week transformation. I was very strict and stuck to the plan working out 3/4 times a week with them at Stormont. I have just had my final weigh in today and can not thank the Mercury family enough! I have managed to lose an unbelievable 24lbs from start to finish which is 1.7 stone. They have given me some much needed confidence back. Anyone thinking of trying a Bootcamp, this is the one I would recommend! 🙌

h. m.

10 out of 10, Mercury fitness is an absolutely fantastic programme suited for all ages, shapes, sizes and fitness levels.. The trainers provide top call sessions that will always leave you busted but always ready for the next one, I blasted the six week programme and got incredible results and am now back as a Vet because it really is brilliant, I found it the most ideal form of exercise for those who struggle with self motivation and working out alone!!

P. I.

Fresh Air and Exercise is a great combination. It stays fun with a different session every time. Before you know it you have been working out for an hour. No matter your fitness level you can work to your own pace. 💪🏼😊

M. M.

Can’t recommend Jay boot camp enough. Hadn’t exercised in over a year due to having a baby, was so nervous my first night but had no reason to be. Really enjoying exercising outside, every night is different and you will get plenty of laughs.
