schools’ soccer and cross-country successes, and obtained his Bachelor’s degree in Sport & Exercise Management from Cork Institute of Technology.

Having worked as a personal trainer from 19 years old and all the way through college, Cormac always knew he would stay in the world of fitness. Moving to Vancouver in 2016 as a typically confident 23 year old, he quickly worked his way into the corporate fitness world and by 25, he was the Fitness Manager of the luxury US gym brand of Equinox.

Fast forward to 2020 where Shamrock Fitness Services became his full-time focus. During the first lockdown of COVID-19, gyms were closed and home workout equipment was scarce. Cormac started an equipment rental service with affordable prices, no long term commitments and free contactless delivery. With most of his personal training taking place within the film industry, his rental market quickly became actors travelling back and forth from the US who had to undergo mandatory quarantine spells. So far in 2021, a lot of Irish in BC have started to make use of the rental service having travelled home for Christmas!

Cormac currently runs his personal training within the private grounds of a film studio in Burnaby, as well as Denman Athletics in downtown Vancouver.
