When Anam Zahid, a GP based in Tralee, joined Evolution Fitness in December 2024, she was looking for one thing: a way to stay physically active and motivated in the middle of a busy life and demanding profession.
But what she found was so much more.
“Absolutely What I Needed”
Starting something new—especially a structured training programme—can be daunting. Anam wasn’t sure if she’d fit in, especially when others around her seemed more advanced.
“I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to do it since most of the people were already so good.”
But within a few short weeks, things changed. The coaching, the support, and the welcoming atmosphere helped her settle in—and now, she’s showing up regularly, pushing herself, and even bringing laughter into her sessions each week.
“Absolutely what I expected.”
Physical & Mental Benefits
Since joining, Anam has felt a huge shift—not just physically, but mentally.
“My mood is better. I feel physically better. And I actually look forward to my next session.”
That’s the power of structured training and a supportive environment. It’s not just about lifting weights—it’s about building a mindset and routine that lifts you in every area of life.
Proud of Her Consistency
As a busy medical professional, consistency is no small feat. But it’s what Anam is most proud of:
“Consistency. That’s what I’m most proud of.”
We’ve watched her confidence grow, her strength improve, and her presence in class light up the room. She’s gone from quiet to cracking jokes with the group—and that’s what true progress looks like.
Looking Ahead: Stay on Track, Stay Positive
Her main goal now?
“To keep going, not break off, and stay consistent. I’m trying to stay positive and not let laziness creep in like it has in the past.”
It’s a simple goal, but it’s the most important one—and it’s what makes long-term progress stick.
Anam’s Advice to Anyone Thinking About Starting
“Strength training—or any kind of fitness training—is a favour to your body and mind. You feel good about yourself. I think everyone should give themselves a chance… you won’t regret it.”
You Deserve to Feel Strong Too
Anam’s story is proof that you don’t need to be the fittest, strongest, or most confident person in the room to start.
You just need to take that first step—and we’ll meet you exactly where you are.
