The Fundamental Body

Fantastic experience: Great gym with really great company. Ciaran & Ray are always helping you reach your personal best with continuous support and encouragement. I will miss it!

Fantastic experience: I was nervous to start HiiT/ crossfit/ weights but from day one I was made feel so welcome and comfortable in the environment by Ciaran, Ray and Justin! The team are so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They are constantly checking on your form and are so attentive so you really feel you're getting personalised workouts. If you are struggling with an exercise they will continue to encourage you and even recommend alternatives. :) All classes are quite small and the team knows everybody's name.I definitely recommend this as a gym for people of any level of fitness and there is a great social aspect to it also :) Ten stars!

Fantastic experience: My husband and I were members of the Fundamental Body for 9 months whilst we lived in Trim, and couldn't recommend it more! Ciaran and Ray are fantastic coaches - they're fun, supportive and have just the right mix of 1:1 and group training throughout each class. We loved the variety and switch ups between classes and weeks, and the FB team have created such a wonderful fitness community. Such a fantastic place for all fitness levels - whether you're just starting out or looking to push yourself further!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Fundamental Body for over 4 years and would recommend it to anyone looking to join a gym. Before I joined, I found it difficult to stay at any gym consistently, but since joining Fundamental, that was never an issue. They offer top coaching, with great support! I find the classes are fun, varied and the atmosphere is very positive, relaxed and fun! It has a real family vibe and would recommend it to anyone looking to join a gym

Fantastic experience: Very happy to have joined Funbody. The program & coaches are top class!

Fantastic experience: Having been coached and experienced working alongside elite S&C level coaches, Ciaran and Ray are right up there in terms of their personal and professional knowledge and skills. The fundamental body is an excellent gym to achieve personal short/long term goals and a real friendly environment which I consistently experience every day I go to the gym. New members are constantly joining weekly, which some are total beginners and others having some level of experience in the gyms but everyone gets treated equally Since joining fundamental body, I have never been as consistent going to the gym and it has shifted my mindset of considering the gym as a chore to now as a hobbie. I have since took a keen interest in CrossFit specific training classes and running which again both of the lads have been great in supporting me I honestly can not recommend the fundamental body gym enough, and it’s great to see the two lads always wanting to improve and make changes were necessarily to help members achieve their goals and improve their overall fitness levels. And most importantly, Ciaran and Ray makes exercising fun and enjoyable!!!

Fantastic experience: I joined Fundamental Body a year ago and can't recommend the gym enough. I've been a member of multiple gyms over the years but none compare to the friendly and supportive atmosphere here. The programming is brilliant week to week and I'm definitely the fittest and strongest I've ever been.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for the last 6 months and I cannot recommend it enough. Ray and Ciaran take a personal interest in their clients and really go above and beyond to help us achieve our goals. Ray and Ciaran are always upbeat, motivating , knowledgeable and encouraging. I have seen great progress with strength, power and endurance.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending the Fundamental Body gym for 18 months now, every week I am progressing and learning more about strength training and nutrition. Ray and Ciaran really listened to me when I explained my reasons for joining a gym and have been so patient and thorough, showing me the basics and ensuring I spend time practicing techniques and taking things slowly before joining the main class which was the perfect approach for me. Even now in group classes, there is still one on one training and advice provided when needed. There is a real sense that your membership is valued and that your progress is being monitored. If you are looking for a really personalised approach and to work with some really great coaches with great taste in music (apart from Ray’s heavy rock) I would highly recommend joining this gym!

Fantastic experience: Joined the fundamental body gym nearly a year ago, really enjoying it great coaching and craic. No experience with lifting any heavy weights in the the past, the coaches are great to make sure you are using the right techniques. Joined to do along side the football training and it has really helped my strength and speed on the pitch and touch wood have been injury free.

Fantastic experience: Fundamental Body has been a game-changer for me. The results I've achieved here over the past 2 years have exceeded my expectations, on both physical and mental health. The sense of community is unparalleled, providing a supportive environment that keeps me motivated. The coaches are exceptional, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about your progress. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym I've ever been a member of. The coaching and the classes are second to none. All you need to do is turn up; the programming caters to all levels of fitness and abilities with an overarching plan behind every class that I've seen generate for results for myself and the members around me. This gym has helped me over 5 years to gain strength, improve technique, cut body fat, train for a marathon, complete an Ironman and build muscle. It's also one of the friendliest gyms I've ever been a part of, with a great environment to work out in.

Fantastic experience: Ciaran ray and Kelsey are always so kind and always there to help no matter how big or small the issue is. Every class is always a laugh as well as taking your fitness and goals seriously. Can’t recommend the fundamental body enough.

Fantastic experience: The Fundamental Body is not just a standard gym. It is a unique gym that is welcoming to anyone (no matter of your level of fitness), a fun place to train and all coaches are more than happy to help you achieve any goal!!! Once you start you will never want to leave.

Fantastic experience: The best gym I’ve been to no question. The classes are great fun, no pressure to keep up if you can’t. Classes don’t get boring, and it’s honestly the best bunch of people there, it’s always great fun! 10/10

Fantastic experience: Really helpful coaches, great atmosphere. I'm not able to do some exercises,but that's no problem because they give me different programs. Very hard work, but no pain no gain

Fantastic experience: The Fundamental Body was exactly what I was looking for from a gym. There's such a mix of classes to really maximise your fitness and the coaches really look out for you to make sure your technique is right and really help to achieve your goals. Since joining The Fundamental Body I've felt so much stronger and the encouragement you get from people in the class really helps to motivate. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Best gym! The prefect blend of results, integrity, fun and community. There is such a personal touch that motivates me, and means I have the support I need as my needs change.

Fantastic experience: Since joining The Fundamental Body my outlook on fitness has completely changed for the better. Ciaran, Ray and Kelsey are excellent coaches who really make time for each individual and their specific needs. There is a real sense of community in the gym, all Funbod members are so friendly and approachable which definitely makes the classes so much more enjoyable!

Fantastic experience: There is a strong social aspect to this gym which makes it more fun and I found training in pairs or a group is easier to stay motivated. Classes are well structured and many time slots to suit your schedule. The App is very useful for reserving your slot and preview of the workout is great. Instructors are friendly and helpful ready to offer advise. Whether you are an absolute beginner or already following your own training schedule I would highly recommend giving The Fundamental Body a go.

Positive experience: Really enjoyed my time at the Fundamental Body (only left as I moved). The gym had a very welcoming atmosphere and gave everyone an opportunity to others perspective of their starting level. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this gym. Since joining, I have been more consistent with my training than I have been in years. They strike the perfect balance between making it fun, and taking training serious. Huge amount of classes daily to suit all lifestyles. Fantastic, knowledgeable and fun coaches. Friendly, welcoming members. A happy and positive place to be, to help me reach my goals. Also a great way to meet new people in the local area

Fantastic experience: The nicest coaches, always there to help. Very friendly and welcoming environment. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I would 100% recommend Fundamental Body Gym. I've been going to this gym for 5 years and I have learned so much. The clue is in the name, it covers a lot of bases, not just weight loss! We've done workshops on nutrition(loads of these), mobility, skipping, handstands, rowing, mental health, Men's health, Mindset/sports psychology, Women's pelvic-floor health and these are only some of them! We do mini challenges too (optional!). It's class-based so the hour flies when everyone is working together and you drive home buzzing. You can follow the "WOD" "workout of the day" or you can do an individualised programme, which the coaches will do up for you if you're a beginner or if you're injured or working towards a specific goal. It is a gym for all ages and abilities. There is great craic and community here. It is obvious that Ciaran (and coaches Ray and Kelsey) actually care about where you are at in your fitness/health journey because they always listen, give advice and ask how you are getting on. 10 outta 10 :)

Fantastic experience: I joined Fundamental Body 10 months ago and I wish I had joined 10 years ago !! In that time I've got fitter and stronger and lost quite a bit of weight . All the coaches are fabulous, they are so friendly and motivating, and even though the workouts can be tough there is a fun, team atmosphere . I really enjoy the classes, and if you put the work in you will get the results ! Kate

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of a lot of gyms in my time but I can honestly say that FB is one of the most professional gyms I have attended to date. The gym itself is always clean and tidy, equipment is always in working order. The Coaches are friendly and professional. There are a number of classes run throughout the day so there’s no excuse not to make it. The classes are always varied and well thought out in terms of programming. What’s more, membership fees are very reasonable in price which I think a lot of other gyms lose sight of.

Fantastic experience: I joined not knowing much about “CrossFit “ and Spent over 2 years at Fundamental with Ciaran and all the coaches, and I couldn’t recommend it more! No matter what level of fitness or gym knowledge you have this place caters for everyone . All the coaches are so helpful and I’ve never met a bunch more willing and delighted to help people achieve their goals. Will miss this place and all the members

Fantastic experience: Fundamental gym completely changed my outlook towards fitness, in a positive way. The focus is on technique and since joining they’ve really helped me gain confidence in my training abilities. I’ve also met so many goals in the last 15 months with the belief from Ciaran & the team. I’ve been to different gyms in the past and the coaches have never been as supportive and engaged as they are here which had led to me being more consistent with my training because I’m actually seeing results. The energy is always positive and I’ve met loads of great people since joining too.

Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoying time at FB. Since joining, have found the classes excellent. The hour is varied with a range of programs to suit everyone, while the app enables ease of booking and workout preview. The coaches have been fantastic and fellow attendees create a great atmosphere. Would highly recommend FB.

Fantastic experience: Joining the fundamental body has been one of the best decisions I've made. I'm there over two years now and before joining, I had tried a number of different ways of staying fit but struggled to remain consistent. I now go to the classes in the fundamental body three to four times a week. I've come a long way since my first class where I didn't know what I was doing or supposed to be doing! The classes mainly consist of a variety of different weights and then some cardio at the end. Ciarán does a great job of mixing up the workouts and I find all coaches, Ciarán, Ray and Kelsey to be very helpful. I'm somebody who needs a push sometimes and the amazing family at the fundamental body make me feel welcome and train hard. For me, the gym is like therapy and gives me the opportunity to feel mentally and physically stronger. I live for Saturday mornings workout and Costa chats and craic with this amazing community. Thank you to Ciarán and everyone!

Fantastic experience: This is not a normal gym. It’s a far more personal experience. No matter your fitness and technical level, this is a fantastic place to train. All the coaches take an interest in you no matter what level you’re at. They are approachable and use their expertise to make sure you get the most out of every workout. They need to have the patience of a saint to put up with my technique and questions! For me, I really like that it is a very personal approach to training, based on developmental blocks and guided by the coaches. I also like that I can track weekly progress on the app. There really is something for everyone and I started off on a beginner program to learn the basics before progressing. I am proud that I have learned new skills, perform different lifts, pulls and pushes as well as other fun stuff like rowing and skipping. You don’t realise how functional the training is to your everyday life until you start. I’m generally introverted and was intimidated starting. DO NOT feel intimidated!!! The other gym members are fantastic and I rarely leave without a smile. My family are shocked I now voluntarily get up at 5.30 in the morning five days a week, week after week, to get my daily 6am fix (there are plenty of other time slots; this one works for me…and the other insomniacs at that class). My advice is, give it a go and trust the process. You won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: By far the best facility around. The equipment and facilities are tops. The trainers are really nice and very knowledgeable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Fundamental Body to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I have gained so much from The Fundamental Body. I’ve done lots of different classes in different gyms but they don’t compare. All the coaches are so helpful and very knowledgeable, they really know what they are talking about. The classes are structured really well so you’re hitting every body part and progressing on your lifts each week without getting bored as there’s a nice mix up of exercises. The atmosphere is brilliant in the classes, everyone is really friendly and the coaches really motivate you to give it your all. I couldn’t recommend The Fundamental Body enough!!

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and variety in workouts. Best part of the day is going in to train here

Fantastic experience: Easily the best gym I’ve been to (only leaving as I’m relocating). Started here when I was about 13/14 with the GAA and got on so well. I’ve tried loads of gyms since; public, private but nothing beats here. Ciaran clearly works so hard on the gym as I can see how much it’s changed and improved in the past few years. They’ve a really good app aswell, loads of options for class times and there’s a way to track your weights to see how your progressing. The real winner for me was the coaches & environment. Ciaran, Ray, Eoghan and Justin were all super helpful and encouraging, and the community they’ve got there is just unmatched. Made me look forward to going. Fair play to Ciaran and the guys doing a class job.

Fantastic experience: This is the best and friendliest gym I’ve ever joined. Whether you have zero experience or years of experience, every class gives you direct time with a personal trainer who will modify exercises exactly for you and what you need. The Fundamental Body team accept and welcome everyone as they are and is completely unique. Would recommend to anyone and everyone, don’t be scared to join on your own

Negative experience: The owner is a scamming piece of sh1t. Steer clear. there is better options in the the town with actual qualified coaches like ultimate conditioning & Abc Trim

Fantastic experience: The best gym I've been a member of. Fantastic coaches with loads of expertise and brilliant classes. I've learned so much being a member of the fundamental body when it comes to nutrition as well as form when lifting. Ciaran has made specialized plans which helped me achieve fitness goals and the diversity of the classes always keeps me motivated.

Fantastic experience: Fundamental Body has been an absoulute dream place to train for me. Every class is tough but so rewarding, fun and doable. Ciaran and Shane are both A class coaches and give individual training despite being part of class. Each class is not too big so you can get alot out of them. Really fun training experience for me and I would highly highly recommend. It is a very welcoming place to train even for a beginner like me.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism

Fantastic experience: The Fundamental Body in Trim is a training experience like no other. Aside from the impressive gym layout and top of the range equipment available, The Fundamental Body is the most welcoming gym that I had ever trained at. The coaches Ciarán and Shane lead innovative workouts that are differentiated based on gender and ability. They monitor each member's performance and encourage you to reach your full potential. Joining the Fundamental Body has allowed me to reach personal goals that I would have never dreamed of, that's all thanks to Ciarán and Shane. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism

Fantastic experience: Before joining TFB I exercised solely to lose weight. Since joining this gym, I now exercise for so much more than that. Ciaran has created something truly unique here, a network that encourages you to become the best version of yourself. He is committed to serving and passing on his wealth of knowledge and listens to your tailored requirements and approach. Nothing is ever to much trouble. This gym is unique and wonderful for all levels of fitness, shapes and sizes… so much more than just a gym. Would 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Ciaran and the team are amazing at making such a comfortable and motivational environment for you to train in. There really is a wide range of abilities here and Ciaran will do everything to make your experience and goals applicable to you. Nice bunch of members too!

Fantastic experience: A great place to help you achieve your goals! Thanks for all the hard work and motivation Ciaran!

Fantastic experience: The Fundamental Body is by far a step ahead of the rest. Not once have I dragged my heels through the door of this gym. Somehow, Ciaran and his team get you to push your boundaries within each training session, while always making it a bit of fun at the same time. The attention to detail within this gym in terms of their coaching on the floor, programming, and constant information they provide for their members regarding training and nutrition, is second to none. That said, besides from all the training and the eating stuff, the members of this gym make it what it is. You’re always guaranteed a laugh when you head in for an hours training, even on a cold winters 6am Friday morning class…I know who’d have thought it. You gain so much more than just a gym membership when you join The Fundamental Body!

Fantastic experience: Hard work!

Fantastic experience: I had recently moved country when I joined Trim Fundamental Body. I knew I wanted to join a gym here to keep my exercise journey going but starting over is very intimidating. To say that Ciaran and Shane took my worries away about starting a new gym program is an understatement! I have never felt so welcome! I know it can be hard for a gym to help each member with their own fitness goals but this gym catered to what I was looking to get out of my membership. If your on the fence about joining this gym let me tell you do it! You won’t rector!!!

Fantastic experience: Son loves here great staff

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff and welcoming. Very enthusiastic about your fitness goals and what you want to achieve . I came to learn weighlifting i.e the Olympic lifts clean and jerk and the snatch. Coach Martin is very knowledgeable in assessing and working on different exercises to perfect the technique. Highly recommend

Positive experience: Blackdragon kickboxing is better

Fantastic experience: My Favorite Place in Trim

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff and welcoming. Very enthusiastic about your fitness goals and what you want to achieve . I came to learn weighlifting i.e the Olympic lifts clean and jerk and the snatch. Coach Martin is very knowledgeable in assessing and working on different exercises to perfect the technique. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Amazing atmosphere. Challenging routines and knowledgeable trainers. There are interesting and different routines for every personal goal set, so you won't get bored in here. Highly recommended!

Negative experience: Didn't like it as the girl had no clue what she was doing, the main guy was too busy with his regulars, they're looking for stupid money when there's plenty of Bootcamp and Pay as you go classes run in Trim that are better value!

Fantastic experience: What makes Ciaran a great coach is that he is motivator and an educator. He will give you the tools you need to make you a healthier, stronger, leaner version of yourself. Always mixing things up in the gym and keeping an eye on your form and no shortage of helpful information regards training, nutrition and mindset (and if he doesn't know it he'll get someone in who does) After 6 months at the Fundamental Body I have lost 2 stone and over 10% body fat and enjoyed it. I have a better understanding of how to achieve my goals and am looking forward to the future at The Fundamental Body as I know it's only the beginning for Ciaran, Larrise and new coach Laura!

Fantastic experience: There are countless gyms out there to choose from but there are very few who invest so much time and dedication to not just running classes but actually educating you on all the things you need for a sustainable healthy lifestyle. This is exactly what you get when you join The Fundamental Body. Ciarán will give you all the tools and education you need in everything from movement, nutrition, mindfulness and getting strong amongst many other necessities for a healthy lifestyle. What makes The Fundamental Body stand out from the crowd is the fact that Ciarán invests everything into helping you succeed, holds you accountable for your own efforts to achieve your goal and you have all the support and craic with the other members who have now affectionately become know as the Fundamentalers :-) Great gym, amazing coaches and the best "family" you could wish to workout with. Ciarán, Larisse and Laura work well together to improve your overall lifestyle. I feel more confident, energetic and healthier than I've ever felt since joining. I highly recommend this gym for everyone at any fitness level.

Fantastic experience: Great staff

Fantastic experience: Run by a genuine guy with a passion for getting people to perform at their best from beginner to expert. Ciaran provides excellent coaching and an environment that is friendly and open.
