I had a great experience with self esteem uturn! When I started my goal was to lose 20 kilos and feel better in my skin and with the help of Barry and my coach pearse I'm well on the way to achieving that goal! I've gotten great support, guidance and encourage from both Barry and pearse and my overall experience has been excellent!

100% Recommend

From the first call I felt supported by the team and by my coach Pearse. The program gives great accountability and support with nutrition and exercise. Pearse is very approachable and always great to hype up my achievements. I have been able to keep consistency with the gym and tracking cals that I wasn’t sticking with before the program. The resources available are excellent and very educational! I would definitely recommend Self Esteem UTurn for anyone looking to make a change and focus on improving their health and fitness!

Best support team to help reach your goals!

Starting with an online coach I was a bit apprehensive especially when we are on the otherside of the world but I have had nothing but success!

After speaking with Barry in my initial call I was quick to decide this was the program for me! My coach Pearse has been nothing but supportive always hyping up any achievements I have made. This is the perfect program for anyone needing to get a headstart in their health and fitness goals.
Even on bad weeks during the program I have been encouraged to keep going!
Would 100% recommend Self Esteem U-turn to anyone interested in the ongoing support of this amazing team

Best decision I’ve made for myself joining the programme

From the initial call to get started on the programme to now, the care and support that Barry and the team put into creating a suitable plan to fit your lifestyle is second to none. Since being assigned to my coach, Pearse, he has helped identify the areas in my diet and exercise that I was overlooking when it comes to losing weight. I’ve tried a number of times to lose weight before with no success, but since joining Self Esteem U Turn, I am getting real results only after a couple of months.

Not only that, but my knowledge of nutrition has improved immensely. The planned workouts are suitable to my weekly schedule and leaves room for improvements. The online community are really supportive and is full of positive people all with the same long term goals.

Would highly recommend the programme to anyone struggling to build consistency when it comes to nutrition and training without huge restrictions.

The kind of direction offered by Coach Kurt and this program sets it apart from others. More specifically I find that the coaching supports me while encouraging accountability in a way that allows you to be human but keeps you moving forward. The community chat with other participants, keeps it real as well as informative as others share wins and losses during their fitness journey. I would recommend Self Esteem UTurn without hesitation.

Finally achieving results without major sacrifice

Thanks to Kurt I finally know what I'm doing with a plan that works for me & around my life. I'm down 9kg in 4months! I still eat food I enjoy, go out & have fun, but now I know how to balance it all without undoing all the hard work I've put in. I even enjoy the gym now! Kurt, Barry & the team aim to give you the tools & knowledge to reach & maintain your goals long term in a way that suits busy lifestyles.

Kurt was really knowledgeable and consistent and a great motivator. He had a flexible style to figure out the best ways to fit exercise routines around work and other life commitments.

If you need great guidance and very supportive staff and community...look no further.

From the start, the quality and sincerity of the owner (Barry) was very genuine. Once he got me going with my coach, Ste, it was all another level. Such a personal touch from them both, plus all ths staff he has, and the committed nature to your personal goals is nothing short of amazing. You get solid support and constant feedback and they're always actively listening to your concerns and ongoing support. The online community they have built is brilliant and full of care and support from not only the community but also the staff themseleves who always put there time in when they can. The focus on my and everyones well being is paramount to them and I couldn't be happier with not only my results but their commitment to each and every person that also put their time and effort in aswell.

Tremendous Experience

The whole team and program is fantastic. A real community that pulls for each has been created. It’s a joy to share in everyone’s journey.

My coach, Ste, has been with me every step - coming up with creative workouts, motivating me, and keeping me accountable. Just world class.

Excellent and Supportive

This is a very informative and supportive program that gets those with the most apprehension with getting started with their fitness journey on the right track. Barry and Teigan provide great informative trainings and encouragement to the steps clients take to get going. One on one coaching is very supportive, where Kurt (personal coach) is very helpful and knowledgeable to how to get you to your goals, whatever they may be. Fitness is a personal investment and I have had quite the return (15lbs+ lost) since I started and really glad I came across this program.

I don't feel like I'm on a diet, yet I am, and it's working!

I really love this program! It has done great things for me, I lost more than 12 kilo's, more than 13 centimeters around my waist and my bloodpressure has dropped significantly (almost tot the levels I can stop taking medication for it). The program is holistic in a way, it incorporates physical and mental aspects and it is very doable. The coaching is great with weekly feedback on exercise, sleep, calorie tracking. I don't feel like I'm on a diet, yet I am , and it's working!

100% Recommend. Amazing community. Brilliant Trainers.

Every trainer I have interacted with in this company, which is more of a community than anything else, have all been absolutley brilliant. They are all very knowledeable, personable and comfortable to deal with and talk to.
Their level of communication with me has been consistently high since I started the programme. My trainer Pearse, who is brilliant, always gets back to me quickly with answers to any questions I have despite the time difference of 11 hours. (Ireland and Australia)
The programme itself is easy to navigate and I am so surprised at the difference it has already made for me in just 1 month. Best decision I've ever made.

Self Esteem Uturn is more then a company,

It’s hard to think of Self Esteem Uturn as company, Its way more then that. Everyone makes you feel at home, like your completely looked after and cared for, as if it were your own family or friends looking out for you.

Kurt, my trainer has had so much patience for me in helping me learn and grow into this whole new person. If I seen 2022 me, I wouldn’t even recognize her. The confidence I’ve gained in myself, the knowledge of body health and fitness, life changing events that have occurred, I firmly believe it happened because I had his support, his experience and understanding.

The best thing to happen me in 2023

Before joining the "My self esteem U-turn" I had gotten to a stage where I felt completely miserable with how I looked and felt. I felt helpless. I had tried so many things in the past before but nothing stuck. I also had pre conceived ideas about PTs, "diets", gym and weightloss (I blame social media for this tbh) . I plucked up the courage to contact Barry because I liked his content and he was relatable. Accepted onto the programme I was really nervous but then I was introduced to Kurt....
Literally bricking myself at the beginning he just heard me. He developed a taylor made programme specifically for me. I told him what I liked and didn't like and he listened. He understood the commitment I have to my family and my busy work life. He also helped me get over my gym anxiety. What I learned there is that everyone is too busy looking at themselves to be looking at me frankly. He taught me all about tracking calories and how to live a normal life even while tracking. It opened my eyes massively to why diets never worked before. I never really ever felt restricted on the programme. As the pounds dropped off, I felt stronger, my body began to change and gained a confidence I hadn't felt about my body in a long time. I lost 20lbs in total. Since leaving the programme I have managed to maintain that. It was honestly the best investment of 2023 for me. My advice is, if you're thinking about doing it, don't think , just do it. You will honestly not regret it !

Why it’s worth it!

I joined the self esteem u turn 6 weeks ago and to say I’ve been blown away by the approach, professionalism and results is a massive understatement. From the one on one coaching I’ve received from Ste Coyle to the easy to implement plans he has given me, everything is super simple but hugely effective. The great thing about the self esteem u turn is that it teaches you new habits and creates an understanding for nutrition and the impact you can have on your strength and body in a short space of time.. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough. The key is consistency and actually doing what the coaches ask. Excellent!!!

I love the approach they take.

I love the approach they take. So many fitness or lifestyle coaches have a cookie-cutter approach to health and fitness: "decrease calories, increase protein, workout five days a week, here's your standard meal plan, here's your standard workout plan, see you in next week". The coaches at Self Esteem U-Turn will sit with you, really listen to your story and your goals, ask you great questions to identify where you need the most help, and then work with you to make a plan that will actually work for you specifically. My issues were having no time and having too much stress. The time issue was causing me to skip workouts and exercise. The stress issue was causing me to make bad food and health choices because they were easier and quicker than the healthier choices. The coaches at Self Esteem U-Turn showed me ways to make those choices easier and more convenient by 'raising the floor' (essentially rigging my life to make making better choices easier than making the bad ones). They addressed my lack of time issues by creating a workout plan that integrated into my life, and a set of goals that were reasonable. When I falter, which everyone does and everyone will, they continue asking the right questions to get to the bottom of why it happened, and we figure out what I need and how to get it together. I have referred two very close friends to Self Esteem U-Turn already, and will continue to shout their praises from the rooftops. Barry, Ste, Teigan, and the rest of the crew will take great care of you, and, more importantly, will teach how to take great care of yourself.

Lots of things haven't worked. This does.

Because of how this programme is set up, this is the first time, as someone who has struggled with his weight for years, that I've managed to easily stick to tracking my calories, stay within my calories etc. That's because all of those involved with the programme show me how and give me helpful tips etc.

Results don't lie, excellent program.

Whether by design or chance, I was assigned Ste as my coach and it was a great fit. He was extremely knowledgeable of where I was starting from and what it would take to get to my goals. The attention to detail, motivation and encouragement given was excellent. The results showed and the foundations for ongoing progress were formed with his help. Highly recommended.
