    Can anyone join the gym or the rugby club ie non students.
    I saw the clip tonight about the rugby clubs gym setup and i like like it a lot. Loads a big weights and powerlifting. Looks Better than a lot of the other girly gyms.
    Ive never played rugby before but id love to train with them for the physicals etc.
    Any contacts here?
    How much is the gym? Does it get packed? Can anyone access the powerlifting area or is it "elite" only?

    You can join the gym as a non-student, but it's quite expensive. You'd be looking at over 300 euro a year. The rugby club is students only as far as I know.

    E300 a year? Expensive?
    If you can access all areas like that powerlifting place then thats as cheap as it gets and is half my current subscription.
    Thanks. I'll call out there soon
    Does the ucd gym get packed? As i can remember its a small enough place

    Packed?

    It's busy enough in the evening but during the day it's quiet.

    The place only looks small because it is spread out over a number of sections (cardio, weights, legs, upper body, and another less specific.)

    The place with the big weights and powerlifting that i think you're talking about is reserved for sports scholarship students. And yeah it is pretty cool got to train there with my mate one day (he got the scholarship not me ;) )

    Hey thanks for the replies lads. I called down there the other night and met simon cowell, manager i think - sound guy in fairness
    E250 for a year for access to everything. I deliberately went at 7 to see what itd be like at peak times and it was packed but i'll prob be going at different times so i think i'll join up.

    The free weights area was cramped but had all you'd need 100lb dumbells, area to power lift. I think i'll be joining up as soon as i get sorted out with a place in ranelagh rthmines.
    Anyone know of someone with a good size room for rent around 400euro mark pm?
