    A few of us (Me, Drifter, L, COH and G86) have decided that we're going to have a fitness beers so consider this a call to arms, lets have a meet up and kill our muscles and our liver.

    We're (I'm) thinking something along the lines of meet in the early afternoon in a willing gym somewhere, do a random strength workout, metcon and some playing about with various lifts and toys before heading out into town and getting ossified.

    Probably follow it up with a hungover session in the phoenix park the next day with Kettlebell's, sleds and hill sprints. First person to puke loses.

    Location will be Dublin, obviously!! Date... TBC

    Who's interested?

    fair and vailid point my friend.

    but the advent of the new school year will severely curtail my availability for such a session

    badly! spose the second last weekend wouldn't be too bad actually... not the last weekend though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,660 ✭✭✭G86


    Can't do the second last weekend, but good for the last one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,991 ✭✭✭metamorphosis

    Me. I'm currently slightly on holidays so only dipping in and out of the internet, but I'm game for that. Puking sounds fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 771 ✭✭✭Red Cortina


    I'm interested! I love doing sleds pulls and stuff like that!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,465 ✭✭✭COH


    We'll have to go to The Wezz after training so Cardio can come too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,472 ✭✭✭Kev M


    Savage, I've always wanted to go get locked with other true fitness enthusiasts! Would that new ironside gym let us do it if we paid for a group session maybe? And if they're open at that stage of course. That would be savage!

    I'd be up for it, pity didn't think of this sooner, could have done it the NABBA weekend (5th Sep), would have been good fun.
    Def some strength work would be fun, fvck the metcons, I don't want to have to take my top of and train in spandex shorts to fit in :p
    I say if we get enough numbers we split into groups for training, whoever wanting to do what...and maybe have the more experienced leading a group so others can get some advice. Having 20 people doing all the one thing will be retarded, we can be 1 big group in the pub :D

    It would certainly be good advertising for them if they let us. Hanley knows the guys so maybe he could have a word?

    Or the lads in Raw? Anto, you there?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,465 ✭✭✭COH


    Anto's off sunning himself on a cruiseship somewhere :D

    Raw is fine for the venue if thats what people want. Options being either during the day sometime, or after hours at 6pm, crank the volume up and have the gym to yourselves.

    This is long overdue.I'm moving down to Galway in a couple of weeks for my master's. However,if there's a big crowd I'll try my utmost to make the trip down and join you guys for the festivities


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,338 ✭✭✭the drifter


    Going to sticky this for a while..

    I know a gym is being looked at for the training session but maybe some people might not make that so can Hanley or someone pick a pub and a time for people to meet in that night?

    Gym's sorted as far as I know.

    Depending on numbers we could either hit Captain America's for food and drinks before going out, or just go straight for somewhere like The Market Bar.

    I'm easy on locations tbh. I'm as happy in some dingy pub as anywhere.

    The logical choice might actually be Bernard Shaw. That's a great spot to start off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,338 ✭✭✭the drifter


    And given that you seem to be sorting things what time in bernard shaws?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,981 ✭✭✭✭Hanley

    If we after hours train from 6 til 9, then 10.30?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,333 ✭✭✭✭itsallaboutheL


    Who's sorting me with caffeine tabs?

    i have to bench a pr that day :cool:
