    You should look into Prozone! It does various different classes some of which may suit your needs.

    If you google Prozone Limerick it will give you the details you need. Also University of Limerick Arena do some good classes. Prozone is out in Thomond Park and University is in Castletroy.

    In fact most gyms will have a class list. You should do a search for the area you will be living. You may be able to do trail periods or something. I go to the Strand for some personal training and I noticed they have a timetable of classes! I think it will be more of a case of figuring out what kind of work out you want and use that to narrow your search.

    That will be much cheaper,social and motivating tbh. Pending on level fit4life may be a gateway drug.

    AmphibianKing run a training group for non-runners to get them up to 5km (called zero to 5k=Zero25k). I lifted this from their website:

    "#Zero25k
    For the past 2 years, each January, we've organised a #Zero25k group from our shop in Oranmore. This has served as an introduction to running for so many people over the past two years and there is such demand for it we are going again!!
    Have a read about the group here and you will hopefully be motivated to join us or invite your friends to join us as we go about setting up a new group. Some of our runners have gone on to join local clubs, others have gone onto running Marathons, its up to you where your running brings you.
    Starting the 26th of October we will be hosting our #Zero25k program in two locations, completing just before Christmas:
    * #AKGalway - based from our store in Oranmore, Galway
    * #AKLimerick - based from our store in Roxborough, Limerick

    All we ask for is that you are
    * committed to following your fitness development for 9 weeks
    * trust our trainers to guide you correctly (no jumping ahead in the program!!)
    * reasonably healthy and injury free (if in any doubt get your Doctor's advice)
    There is no online registration for this season, you must call into the relevant store in person to register and it is of course, FREE of CHARGE!!"

    That's what I am looking for. Need to get started in a proper way.
