Anyone know a rough estimate of how much the dart is out to bray from town? I'm still trying to gauge the most viable route.

Ignore that, just found it was €5.20.

When I checked the website I got €5.20 return which is probably around same price as the bus anyway.

I'm getting the bus from town, goes through Dublin Road anyway whereas the dart seems to be around 20 minutes walk away.

What time you getting it at? Thats another variable to the situation.

Justin Ternet · 23-03-2012 10:58pm

The bus is your best bet lads cheaper and leaves you right outside

Reganio 2 · 23-03-2012 11:07pm

I was hoping to get out for this but my dodgy elbows are acting up so no point in me going out messing it up for everyone, hopefully this is a success though

Justin Ternet · 23-03-2012 11:10pm

You can still come watch if you want.

Got a rough idea of a cost?

Reganio i'm in the worst of shape, you will have competition in messing up!

Come on down.

Reganio 2 · 23-03-2012 11:14pm

Hmm so tempting

What time is kick off and is it ok to be late (Just in case)

Punked I highly doubt it... If I don't dislocate something I would be amazed :P.

45 or 145

Why is the dublin bus site void of fare prices?!

Because they go up 10c a week and can't be bothered to update the website

But check here - http://www.dublinbus.ie/en/Fares--Tickets/Fare-Information/Fares/

So going by that it'll be €2.65 each way?

Justin Ternet · 23-03-2012 11:51pm

The 145 is the only bus that drops you outside the place. I think its 2.75 for the trip (robbin whoores)

Was going to but there was a few things i didnt take into consideration;

How much pain i could be in following.
Toll prices.
the m50 scares me on my own.

Thanks to Phil and Justin for today, brilliant experience and i think i will definitely be going back!

Justin Ternet · 24-03-2012 7:30pm

Thanks to everyone who showed up today you all did very well for your first day. Hopefully you all enjoyed it, any feeback would be welcome good or bad. I had good craic and wouldn't mind organising another day like today in the future if there is interest. Again lads thanks and well done.

jaykhunter · 24-03-2012 9:25pm

Thanks to Justin & Phil organising this open day! Really enjoyed it & is very different actually learning moves & counters from havin just seen them on TV for all these years. We'll see if I can walk tomorrow! Would very much recommend going if u've half an inkling!

2nd Row Donkey · 24-03-2012 9:49pm

Spill the beans lads!!!!
Been dying to hear about what I missed all day.
How many turned up?
what did ye learn?
Are you gonna go again?

Dickmcsavage · 24-03-2012 10:46pm

The training session was very enjoyable. Phil and Justin did a great job. It was also great to meet a few of you in person, t'was great craic . Deffo feeling a few bumps and bruises already (thanks in part to CM Punked's clothesline from hell :P ) so I can imagine I'm gonna be in bits tomorrow. I reckon I'll be going back though. Wednesday's are better for me so I might show my face this Wednesday.

WOS fan · 24-03-2012 11:16pm

Guys..Phil and Justin...Thanks a lot for organising the session today. You were very generous with your time and it was a very enjoyable experience (even for the oldest participant). Sorry I had to leave early. I would have liked the suplex session. I will try to make it back again. Probably on a Sunday. It's a very different experience wrestling for real and I appreciate more the skill of people I have watched on TV for years.

CMpunked · 25-03-2012 12:29am

Today was so much fun.

Regardless of my back, legs, arms and hands being in bits it was excellent none the less.
There was 6 of us there, which to me seemed ideal for us. If any of you were in two minds and decided not to go today im not going to tell you how silly a decision that was but instead tell you that if another one of these are organised dont be on the fence about it.
Phil and Justin were above professional and were great instructors and thankfully disregarded the thought of making us all feel like s/marks.

Although, i did get called Mr. Cena but it was all in fun and jest. I will definitely be back once funds improve and allow me to commit.

gimmick · 25-03-2012 2:01am

Delighted this went well. Fair play to all involved.

Charisteas · 25-03-2012 8:09pm

Thanks once again to the legends that are Justin and Phil, extremely generous of you guys giving up your Saturday afternoon (a sunny Saturday at that) and you's were both excellent teachers.

Really appreciated the personal touch and advise that you gave when we were paired up doing the chain wrestling, found that the most difficult to grasp (#failure) but your instruction was crystal clear. Sam was great too.

Loved the rope and turnbuckle running, got a great buzz doing that.

The pain in my arms, legs, upper and lower back, throat, a$$, neck, and stomach was worth every minute, will definitely look into attending a few more classes again.

The Volt · 25-03-2012 8:50pm

Glad it went well lads, I've been unwell so couldn't make it

gnfnrhead · 25-03-2012 9:01pm

Im curious to know, did anyone go in thinking they were great, run the ropes and fall down in agony when they realise how tight they are? Always wanted to see that happen. :pac:

Glad everyone enjoyed it and thus far appears to have survived.

Justin Ternet · 25-03-2012 9:01pm

Jesus lads that's some fairly positive feedback thanks for posting it up. It was our pleasure having you lot on board for the day hopefully you weren't too beat up today and if this generates a bit more interest we would be happy to do it again.

CMpunked · 25-03-2012 9:07pm

Congrats lads, I'm in bits! Haha.

jaykhunter · 25-03-2012 10:33pm

I'm hobbling around and lamenting anything that falls on the floor! Ya good craic I'd love to go again as soon as I can walk lol

Dickmcsavage · 26-03-2012 10:32am

Was in bits yesterday but it was definitely worth it! If there was another day organised like Saturday I would highly recommend to the people that missed out that you give it a go. You won't regret it.

brianregan09 · 27-03-2012 1:21am

AAah sounds ye had a great time sucks theres nothing like this down around my area as I'd have been there in a heartbeat if it was local

I work most Wednesday nights but good luck though man and definitely PM me to let me know how you got on. I would like to go back soon especially with another beginner to have someone to work with.

Is your Back not still in bits from Saturday? I'm still in agony but no pain no game though right :cool:

Mine was until today. Take a bath or grab some muscle rub, that stuff helps a hell of a lot.

2nd Row Donkey · 28-03-2012 5:15pm

I missed last week but I'm determined to get down there asap.

wont make this sunday as I've got stuff to do before heading into CA for WM that night.

Going to aim for this day next week as my first session.
It is only Wed and Sundays right? the session last sat was just a once off on account of us boardsies?

jaykhunter · 28-03-2012 5:23pm

I do want to go again but i don't wanna be the only newb in the class! Today went out the window as have 2 poddies to record and a meeting to prepare for. Dunno if i'll be free to take the afternoon out, plus I'd like to be able to walk up the stairs into Captains

Next wed looks good

brianregan09 · 28-03-2012 10:38pm

we have a couple of guys there only on their third or fourth week so you wouldn't be completely in the deep end

Dickmcsavage · 29-03-2012 12:56pm

So I went last night and it was great craic again. The fitness work was definitely more intense but I enjoyed it.

We were given a spot to do in the ring as part of the fitness training after which we paired up and we were told to do the same spot but add our own finish to it. I was paired with a lad who has been there a while so naturally he came up with the finish but t'was great craic altogether.

There were a few more regulars down last night and there was a good atmosphere in the gym. All the lads were very friendly and were constantly giving me pointers.

Luckily I have a bit of protein mix back in the apartment so had a shake before and after training so I don't feel nearly as sore today. Would recommend getting some if you are planning on coming down again because you'll be in agony the next day otherwise.

What finish did he come up with, dick?

also, will 'Dick McSavage' be your in-ring name?

What is involved in this cardio-wise?
