    Hi all..

    I know there have been some forums previously about personal training in limerick but they are very old and not quiet answering what im wondering about.
    Im not looking for a fitness instructor who give you a plan that you work on Im essentially looking for a coach. Im moving to limerick form the UK where ive been working with a coach for 3 months now for weightloss and overall fitness. My coach worked out with me 3 times a week in a gym, on circuits and outside as well an giving nutritional advise. Does anyone know of something similar in limerick?
    Ive bee googling but not finding what I want.. Ive found 2 of intrest studio 21 city center offer personal training an 20eu p hour and another called Tri-fit but they give no prices. Ive emailed them and they evaded my question about costs so that a bit intresting.
    Anyone reccomend anyone? ever used Trifit or studio 21?

    Thanks for any help, I really need the motivation of having my progress monitored which you just dont get from a fitness instructor!!:)

    I go to Aaron and really recommend him. He's not into fad diets and my body is completely transformed and toned since I started working out with him.

    I have heared good things about Trifit though. Their circuit class is meant to be the best in limerick. Studio 21 I would skip, I know two people who were doing trx classes there every morning and can't say I noticed any weight loss or change in their body shape.

    If your looking for a really good workout then head to altitude spinning in delta sports dome. Best cardio workout in limerick.
