Kevin Odonoghue · World Record Holder
Discover the Secrets Behind My World Record!
For years, I’ve kept many of the details behind my world record journey to myself.
Until now.
What did it really take to complete 70,805 sit-ups in just 24 hours?
Behind that achievement is a personal story of determination, challenges and lessons that have stayed with me throughout my life.
I’m now sharing more of that journey, including why I chose June for my record attempt, the challenges I faced and what this extraordinary experience taught me about overcoming limits.
My journey didn’t end with the world record. Since then, I’ve faced serious health challenges that have changed the way I approach my own wellbeing.
Today, Joanne and I share our experiences through Fresh Start Wellness, helping people discover practical self-care habits and how quality essential oils can become part of everyday life.
Discover the story behind my world record and the lessons that continue to shape my life today.

If you’ve ever wondered what essential oils are, how to use them or whether they might fit into your everyday life, we’d love to help you explore the possibilities.
At Fresh Start Wellness, we’re passionate about sharing practical information about quality essential oils.
We enjoy incorporating essential oils into our own daily routines, from creating a pleasant atmosphere at home to making time for quiet reflection and relaxation.
We also believe that understanding the products you’re using is important.
You don’t need any previous experience with essential oils to get started.

What Is a Personal Oil Experience?
We believe one of the best ways to discover essential oils is to experience them for yourself.
Our Personal Oil Experience is a relaxed, private session where you can explore different essential oils, learn about their uses and ask questions.
We’ll introduce you to a selection of quality oils and explain practical ways you might incorporate them into your everyday routines.
There’s no need to have any previous knowledge and no pressure to purchase anything.
Our aim is to help you make informed decisions about what might suit you.

Why Does Essential Oil Quality Matter?
Not all essential oils are equal.
The plants used, growing conditions, extraction methods, handling and testing can all influence the quality of an essential oil.
We believe people deserve to understand what they’re using rather than simply choosing a product because it smells nice.
At Fresh Start Wellness, we focus on sharing information about quality, purity, appropriate use and the things worth considering before choosing essential oils.
We also recognise that natural products need to be used carefully. The appropriate oil and method of use will depend on individual circumstances.
If you’re curious about essential oils but don’t know where to begin, our free Oils Guide is a useful introduction.
