Using your speed on a threadmill as a benchmark you can use any of our cardio machines to try to get from town to town around Ireland. The tour is divided into stages and completing them gives you a star. The more stars you earn the more tickets you get for the final draw and so the more chances of winning! The time you spend on our bike's, crosstrainer's, stepper's, rowing machines or glidex will be converted to the distance you would have completed on a threadmill. There is also a conversion for swimming available.
For more information ask at reception or check out one of the notice boards.

September Nutrition Challenge - Starting Monday 6th September
Keep a diet diary for one month. Give up one bad food that you tend to eat regularly. Get a handle on your health and nutrition and be in with a chance of winning money!
Help us to help you by signing up and taking part. At the end of this process, we will sit down with all participants and carry out an analysis of where it all went right and wrong! This challenge is not a competition, its really important to be honest with yourself. Nobody is expected to be perfect, hopefully we will all learn a little bit and set up a solid foundation for healthy nutrition (and thus better health) in the future.
So what are you waiting for? Talk to our gym staff (Barbara, Linda and Martin) about signing up! All it takes is €5, nominate one food you will stay away from and if you return a fully-filled in diary, we will enter you into the draw for the full pot o' gold.

Crossfit Circuit Classes
CrossFit Certified Trainer Diarmuid Morley is starting an exciting range of classes to get you fighting fit for the summer...and beyond! We really believe that these fun and social classes are your best bet for great health.
Early Morning Class: Monday 7.15am
Mid-Morning Class: Thursday 9.15am
Lunchtime Class: Tuesday 1.15pm
After-Work Class: Wednesday 6.00pm
These sessions have 4 main features:
1. Functional Movements. We all need to practice funtional movements so that fitness in the confines of a gym is reflected in our daily lives outside of the gym.
2. Technique focused. These classes will improve your technique. Without good technique, its not realistic to progress your fitness.
3. Intensity. Have you ever left the gym feeling like you've just gone through the motions? These sessions will get you exercising at a high intensity (safely and relative to your own needs of course). Leave the gym after this circuit class knowing you've given 100%!
4. Variety. Constant variety will benefit you in two ways....constantly shock your body for greater training benefits AND you never get bored!
