Don't join a gym and waste 400e if you don't keep it up, go down the community centre and join some of their courses, there is a boxing one, google their webpage!! They have gym equipment too.

The gym warehouse is highly rated amongst some on here its €3 per session or €20 per month. If you only plan on going weekly i'd go for the warehouse option. But if you plan on going every day i'd look into Energise they have fairly good personal training staff in there from what I hear, they'd be great for what your looking for they have a huge weights room, along side the gym. They recently held a round of the Irish strongman comp too if I remember correctly.

We, people from boards, play football too every Tuesday night at 8 in letterkenny, been going most of last year, starting back next week after the festive break, feel free to drop your name down in the sign up thread your more than welcome to join us

I'm a member of Aura, and have a student rate which works out at around 23 euro a month. I go to the gym classes 3/4 times a week which are great as the groups are small and also a great way to meet new people.

As part of the gym membership you can use the gym, swimming pool, all classes, the track, steam room and sauna.

Staff are really friendly and so helpful, I can't recommend the place enough...

Best of luck

In my opinion the best gym in town is the Community Centre. I have been arround them all and always go back there. Warehouse is the cheapest and quite good too. However the community ctr is offering 4 months for 90 euro at the mo which is competitive considering classes are also included. It's got better equipment than Energie. They will also be able to do you a plan.

If you do end up going to Energie, ask for Mick to do your induction and plan. You should also Google 'starting strength'. It's a good 12 week beginners program.

Best of luck

You sound perfect for our soccer

Oranbhoy is 100% right, judging by what you've said above you will look like Messi playing with us

We don't take it too serious, its a bit of a kickabout just with lots of running in between.
