Thanks Enda for the 10* review ✨. We really appreciate the feedback and hearing the impact a chat can end up having on someone's life! We aim to make people feel welcome to the gym and work hard at ensuring everyone is at the level that is right for them! It's awful to sit at home saying "Ah sure, I need to be fit to work out" or "I'll loose a few lbs and then start" or "Everyone will be fitter/stronger/skinner/etc etc" but the reality is that taking the first step is the hardest. Such a cliché but it's so true! Hopefully your review will encourage someone to pick up the phone and give me a call on 086804244 looking to join! Keep up the good work in the classes . Thanks again Maeve
Fantastic experience: I've been doing a fitness class with Damien from F23 for the last couple of months now. I had never been in a gym before starting this class but Damien really puts you at ease and explains everything really well. It's a small group in the class so there is lots of personal attention to make sure you get the technique right. The class is very relaxed. Even if you are a total beginner who just wants to get a little bit of fitness, this is perfect. And it's amazing how quickly you start to see an improvement.
Thanks for the 5* Dave. We appreciate the feedback. Great to hear you are enjoying the classes. We lay the groundwork but you are doing the hard work and therefore you are seeing the results .
Fantastic experience: I've been a dedicated member of F23 gym for several months now, and I can confidently say it's been an incredible fitness journey. From the moment I walked in, the team's friendliness has set a positive tone for each workout. Damien and the entire team go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and motivated. The clarity of instructions at F23 is exceptional. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced fitness enthusiast, the guidance provided is easy to follow, ensuring you get the most out of every session. The attention to detail in the small group settings is something that truly sets F23 apart. The smaller groups allow for personalized attention, making each workout feel tailored to your specific needs. What I appreciate most is the immediate positive impact I've seen on my fitness journey. The results were evident from the get-go, thanks to the effective training programs and supportive atmosphere. Damien and his team's dedication to their clients is truly commendable. I can't recommend F23 gym enough for anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals in a welcoming and results-driven environment.
Thanks so much for the 5* review David. We appreciate the feedback and are delighted that you enjoyed your time with us here at F23 Fitness. The way you have described your experience at F23 fitness is exactly how we described our aim for the gym back when we first opened so its great to hear that our vision is being realised and validated. Best of luck in the move and keep training! ✨
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend F23 Fitness. I booked a consultation with Damien and we talked through what I needed to achieve. The private gym is great for 1.1 coaching and being able to learn techniques to practice at home. A really positive experience with Damien and extremely knowledgeable. Couldn’t have asked for a better coach to get the results I wanted. Always checking in daily to see how you are getting on, giving really good feedback on ways for improvement. Honestly couldn’t recommend Damien enough.
Thanks for the review Patrick! We appreciate the feedback. You absolutely nailed the training and worked hard to reach your goal. Keep up the good work! Best of luck in the new career. Maeve
Fantastic experience: great place to get back into a fitness journey. The guys are really helpful, they try and make each class individual to your goals and level.
Thanks Orla. Appreciate the 5* review. Thanks Maeve
Fantastic experience: F23 is a great gym that works for all levels of fitness Coaches are very helpful and encouraging at all times
Thanks Patricia. Appreciate the 5* Maeve
Fantastic experience: As my primary goal for the recent decade has been losing weight, I had tried some personal training programs before; Huge money and quick effect. But I always ended up gaining back maybe because my goal was not quite right. It was at the end of 2021 that I was warned by my GP about a high cholesterol and liver rate, and it’s been almost a year and a half since I joined F23 Fitness. Now, I have changed 180 degrees. I go to the gym 2-4 times a week, and it became my life. What was the difference from my previous experiences? I think it is the approach. To me, the F23’s goal wasn’t really about the aesthetics of my body or some specific figures. It was about consistency and casualness. Going to the gym, sweating, and making my heart pound became so normal. And the coaches are always there when I want some professional advice or even a casual chit-chat. The gym itself is nice and clean. I wouldn’t say it’s super fancy or grand. But that’s the part I love. It feels so neat and comfortable so I can focus 100% on my workout. Now, even when I go on business trips, I bring F23’s program and keep my routine. In numbers, my weight came down from 106 to 91kg, I can do three full pull-ups. (It was zero for the last 15 years.) I’m not doing any low-carb diet, because I love carbs as much as I love working out. Joining F23 was one of the best decision in my life. I want F23 Fitness to be more successful but at the same time, not too much successful because it’s going to be too hard to book the sessions. Lol
Thanks so much Doo-san. I had to read that a few times to take it all in! We are delighted that you and your family are part of the F23 Fitness clientele. We really appreciate your kind words and are really pleased to see that our values are such a huge part of your life with us. We wanted a community based gym where small classes were the norm and where people felt welcome and not intimidated by being in a gym but we also wanted a gym where people would achieve results. And you are nailing that bit! We are very grateful that you picked us back in 2021 and look forward to seeing what the next 2 years bring for you. Kind Regards Maeve
Fantastic experience: Almost two years ago I decided it was time to get back into some fitness routine after having the kids. So I looked around at a few of the local gyms between Castlebar and Claremorris. For me an early morning class was needed as having two small kids it can be hard to get away and rely on a babysitter. When I seen F23 Fitness I decided to make an appt and met Eoin and that was almost two years ago. Joining F23 was the best think I ever done the care and attention that you get from Damien, Ryan and Dylan is amazing. They explain each exercise in detail and they don’t make you feel intimidated. Everyone in the class is so supportive of each other and we all try and encourage one another. If you feel scared to join well then don’t because I promise you when you start you won’t want to leave. I am completely addicted to it now and hate when I have to miss a class
Thanks so much Paula for your kind words. We are so happy you made the decision 2 years ago to come and see what we are all about! We appreciate the feedback and love how you have mentioned the things that make F23 fitness the gym it is today - Our team and our clients! Kind regards, Maeve
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym with top notch equipment. The trainers Damien, Dylan and Ryan are so knowledgeable, approachable and helpful. The small group personal training sessions are great and programs can be tailored to your own goals. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to develop and improve on their strength and fitness. Thanks to all at F23.

Hi Orla, thanks for your great review. Keep up the great work and progress and its great to have you as a member in F23 Fitness. Damien.
Fantastic experience: Have been a member of F23 for about 2 months now and am absolutely loving it. The 6am sessions are great and so handy to be able to get in and get my workout done before going to work. Maeve who I dealt with initially on the phone is lovely and the trainers Damien and Ryan are so friendly and helpful. They make you feel at ease as soon as you walk in the door. I love that we work in 6 week blocks and can track our progress each week. We are guided through each workout and never left wondering what we need to do next. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone who is looking for one to sign up to. You won't regret it!
Hi Lorna, thank you for your kind review. Great to have you in the gym and keep up the excellent progress. Damien.
Fantastic experience: Both trainers Damien and Eoin are very helpful and encouraging.Very clean and great quality gym equipment. Max of 6 people in each class which makes it a lot less daunting working out in front of others. Classes tailored to everyone's individual abilities. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Absaloutly loving training at F23 Fitness! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: F23 is an amazing gym with extremely experienced staff. I find classes are perfect for a busy mother as I can attend after school drop off.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly atmosphere and great if you are a beginner as Eoin and Damian are very helpful throughout the classes
Fantastic experience: F23 is a convenient, well equipped and friendly gym. They have convenient parking with an easily accessible location. They have a personal log so that you can track your own progress and equipment ranging from squat racks to ski ergs to accommodate every skill level. The instruction is attentive with a focus on detail. A great all round friendly gym.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly gym and the classes are all great. The trainers are always happy to provide tips on training or recovery. No better place to start the day than in F23 Fitness !
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, my teenage son is really enjoying and learning from the youth strength and conditioning classes.
Fantastic experience: F23 provides high quality small group strength and cardio classes. The classes are at flexible hours starting from 6am. Each class is catered for clients at their own individual level whether they are a beginner or advanced. The staff are very professional and really approachable helping you reach your goals.
Fantastic experience: Damien and Eoin were very friendly from start, I was delighted to hear that a gym had opened in Balla area as it is close to my family. The training sessions are very well put together and covers all different types of fitness such as strength, muscle gain and cardio. It is perfect the way classes are limited numbers as you get pretty much 1 on 1 training as the trainers can watch over and help with technique and push you on. There is good selection of gym equipment such as squat racks, dumbbells and kettlebells, and for cardio they have ski erg and assault bike, plus many more Would recommend to anyone in Balla or surrounding areas to join gym, will suit any age or fitness levels as they have classes to suit. I wish lads continued success in future as the gym continues to grow, thanks- Bernard, Balla
Fantastic experience: Love the sessions at this gym , theres a broad range of top quality equipment and the lads are always there to give advice on what suits you best. As a young person id highly recommend anyone to join!
Fantastic experience: Loving the PT classes at F23 Fitness, highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: The set up at this gym is fantastic. The equipment they have available is top-notch and enough for everyone (no waiting around for a particular weight of dumbbell or cardio equipment). The coaches are very helpful, supportive, motivating and well-informed. I would highly recommend this facility for anyone who wants to focus on or get started with their health, strength and conditioning. The location is great - central, easy to find and with tons of free parking around too. I've also been very impressed with the cleaning protocols and space between users as I was nervous returning to a gym environment considering Covid etc
Very kind words Lorna thank you! You've had some great results in the short time you've been with us, looking forward to seeing what the next few months have in store.

Fantastic experience: I joined just before Christmas and was very nervous. I found both Damien and Eoin really encouraging and I'm really enjoying my morning small group personal training sessions. They have modified my routines to deal with weak shoulder. Now i love going in each morning and feel so much better. So glad I took that first step to getting back. Its like no other gym I've been too. So friendly.
Fantastic experience: This is a fantastic gym run by 2 excellent coaches. There is lots of flexibility in class times and types of classes offered and the coaches are constantly adapting to match everyone’s level of fitness.
