Smart Time Fitness

Elaine Warnock, organiser of Smart Time Fitness, has a message for the sports community. Located in Newry, Smart Time Fitness was founded by Elaine, who grew up on a farm where fitness, health, and nutritious food were everyday essentials. As an avid runner who has participated in numerous marathons and ultra-marathons, entering the fitness industry was a natural step for her. However, it was her experience of motherhood that truly highlighted the profound impact of exercise on both physical and mental health.

Elaine's fitness programmes are shaped by her experiences as a mother, covering the highs, lows, and challenges that come with parenthood. She understands the physical changes post-childbirth and the lifestyle adjustments needed to maintain a healthy balance. Elaine's personal experience with food and its effects on mood and energy levels led her to become a certified nutrition coach, transforming her own health and well-being.

After facing her own struggles with diastasis recti, Elaine pursued further training in anti and postnatal fitness in London. She discovered safe and effective ways to heal and strengthen her core, moving away from traditional exercises that could worsen her condition. Now, with a stronger core than ever, Elaine is eager to help others achieve similar results.

At Smart Time Fitness, clients can expect a tailored and personal fitness experience. Elaine offers group, semi-private, and private classes, accommodating schedules that fit around early mornings, lunch breaks, office hours, or even nap times. Each session is designed to be enjoyable, friendly, and suitably challenging, targeting individual goals.

Elaine's hands-on approach means she guides clients through each workout, ensuring proper technique and offering needed support. Client care is paramount, with follow-ups to ensure the best results.

Smart Time Fitness isn't just about exercise. Clients learn to tailor workouts to their specific body and lifestyle needs and are guided towards healthier eating habits. The goal is to enjoy nourishing food without falling into the trap of fad diets. The centre highlights the relationship between diet and exercise for overall well-being.

For those who prefer in-person sessions, Smart Time Fitness offers studio classes, including Level 4 Advanced Mat Pilates and Ante/Postnatal Mat Pilates. These classes combine strength training and Pilates, focusing on the deepest muscles and improving flexibility. With hands-on instruction, participants perform exercises with control and precision, aiming for a challenging but manageable workout.

Elaine is dedicated to helping individuals achieve lasting, sustainable results, both mentally and physically, in a supportive and empowering environment at Smart Time Fitness.
