    I was there about 18 months ago and I have to say I did not like it. The equipment was tired and very worn, the free weights area was full of teenagers lifting very heavy weights in very strange ways and not in ways to be encouraged, lockers in the changing room were broken.

    Ben Dunne in Lucan is a lot cheaper and basic but better in my opinion.

    All the equipment has been re done since then ;). I was the opposite hated Ben Dunne always to busy for my liking no matter what time of the day due to it being so cheap prefer paying a bit extra to have a bit more freedom to move around :).

    If you're in Ballyer then check out the Sheldon Park on Kylemore Rd. Nice gym plus pool/sauna/steam room. It's €200 per year off peak, I don't know the rate for peak but stroll down for a tour

    Closer then Park West

    Hey guys just an update on this gym I went in for consultation today, I must admit I was very nervous as I haven't been to a gym in years..
    I arrived 15 mins early and straight away I felt comfortable,, Its just 2 lads that run the place so I wasnt bounced from pilar to post I just delt with one of them. he sat me down and we basically chatted for nearly an hour about what I want to get out of training and he broke everything to down in laymans terms for me to have a better understandment. needless to say im starting my programme tomorrow and will keep you guys updated

    from my meeting today with these guys I recommend
