Rob Lipsett became a major shareholder of Raw Gyms Group and is launching Raw Gym Academy to train fitness professionals. He's planning seminars, meet-ups, and guest speakers from MMA and rugby to make Dublin's location a hub for health and self-improvement.
Ready or not, I do believe that you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Here I go. Think back on all the times that you set yourself a goal and it fell through. You can't hide. Do you actually really want it, or did you just want it sometimes? When you truly want something, you won't accept anything else. It's not Not even an option. Okay, we're going, right? I'm just literally gonna just try, just say this, just everything. It is what it is, just what is on my mind. Okay, right, so the first ever gym that I joined was Raw Gym. I went in there, 18 years old if even, skinny, didn't have a clue what I was doing. And over time, I slowly got more structure to my training plan. I learned off the members in the gym. I did more research myself, and I started making progress. And there's always been one consistent in my life, and that has been the gym. And I know that can sound, you know, like, oh, come on, Rob, it's just lifting weights, but it's really not. It's really a community, and it's really bettering yourself, and it's a really positive thing to get involved in. And when things in my life weren't going that well, you know, getting fired from jobs, failing college year after year, just completely remaining stagnant there was always one thing that I was good at, and it always has been a place that I could just go to when things weren't going right. Like, I remember I'd fail a test or I'd have a bad day in work, and I just go to the gym and I just let off steam, and it would just feel so good. So what I want to announce in this video, and I can finally say it, is that I'm now a major shareholder in the Raw Gyms Group. This is just a Cinderella story. This is just a real-life Cinderella story. Imagine if you told that young guy who first signed up to the gym that he'd one day be in this position. I wouldn't have believed you. Of course I wouldn't have believed you. If anything, I want you guys to take something from this video, okay? Because that's what it's all about, okay? This channel is not all about me. It is about you, the viewers, and how it positively benefits and impacts your life, okay? That's what, that's what really matters, okay? And I want you to just think of like a huge goal or a huge aspiration that you have that may seem out of reach and just think that it's not. And it isn't. Crazy things happen. Crazy things do happen and crazy things can happen and you can really, really surprise yourself if you actually put in the work. And this is just living proof of all that. So what can you expect from all this? Well, one of the many, many things that we have been working on over the past couple of months is the Raw Gym Academy. All the information is going to be linked down in the description box. I highly recommend checking out— it's going to be— if you want to go down the same route I did and pursue a career in fitness, then it's definitely worth a look at. On top of that, we are going to be doing some crazy events here. I'm going to be doing regular seminars, meetups, getting guest speakers in. Not only am I going to be getting some of the biggest names in fitness to come down here in Dublin, Ireland. I'm also gonna be reaching out into other realms. I wanna get top names in MMA, rugby, everything to come down here. I wanna make it like this one-stop hub for all things fitness, health, and self-improvement. I wanna make it like the Mecca of Dublin. Oh my God, I'm getting fired up even just thinking about this. Like, I seriously am. By no means think this is the end or think this is the end goal or that's it, you know? This is, if anything, it's just the beginning and it's just the start of the next chapter. And that is one thing I hate, is when people, they accomplish a goal or, you know, something that they've been working towards, and they say, oh great, I've got that now, I can put the feet up and relax. That is not the case, and that is not me whatsoever. If anything, I just see this as, you know, a stepping stone onto greater things. So guys, thank you so much for following me along on this crazy journey. I am so glad I got that off my chest because I've obviously known about it for the last couple of weeks and it just feels so good to just say it out loud. Okay, we're gonna finish up this video here and next thing is I'm gonna Manchester for 2 days and then we fly to Ibiza to celebrate. So I'm very excited for that. Good times ahead. Thank you so much for watching. Keep it real. Peace. I was getting so fired up there that it's like Ben nearly ended up in the bushes. It's like, I was like, ah, walking towards the camera. Ben's gonna like end up in the dumpster over here. All right, let's go home. Sleepover. Yep.
