Specific: Opinions
Fantastic experience: The owners and staff are very friendly and supportive. It's obvious they care immensely about their work and create an amazing environment for everyone. Suitable to everyone of all ages, can't recommend it enough!
Fantastic experience: I'm over 40 & have been a member for about 2 years now and it was honestly the best dicision ive made in a long time, the team Liam, Eoghan, sinead, Kev, Lara & Meg are extremely knowledgeable and always on hand to help you out, for anyone like myself who hadnt exercised in years, Specific focuses on training with a more personal touch. The cost is extremely reasonable for what u get out of it and the way I see it is it's an investment into your health so no brainer . My advice is to try one class, and I guarantee u will be coming back. Thanks JB
Fantastic experience: This is a really great Gym and you will actually enjoy coming here.. I've joined other gyms in the past and lost interest or motivation but not with Specific.. Since joining I have definitely noticed an improvement in my overall strength and fitness , the coaches/trainers are brilliant and this shows in the overall atmosphere of the gym.. Would definitely recommend this Gym.
Fantastic experience: Specific has been my first gym experience that I’ve stuck with and enjoyed. After turning 40 I wanted to do something positive for myself . I’ve tried many gyms and programmes and classes over the years but the nature of the Small Group Personal Training , and the great community of members , has made it a really positive experience.
Legend Aoife! We are chuffed you're doing it for you
Fantastic experience: I have been a member here for more than 5 years now and it has become a way of life. The crew at Specific are fantastic and unlike any other gym I’ve ever experienced. My favourite event of the year is the summer bbq and would recommend joining for that reason alone
All about the BBQ! Thanks Kev, top man
Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience at Specific. I’ve been a member for over a year (the longest I’ve remained a member of anything!) and love going three times a week. It’s challenging but not intimidating. Such a welcoming and knowledgable team. Although beware: Peak weeks become addictive!!!!
Thanks Jo! We do love a good peak week. You’re flyin’, keep it up
Fantastic experience: Fantastic Gym! Top class coaches who go above & beyond to ensure you keep smashing your goals in the gym and outside of it. They have built and incredible community in Rush and one I'm delighted to be part of. I can't recommend joining highly enough. I started with the 28 day trial and have been a 6am regular for the last 4 years. A much happier healthier human, thanks guys!
Thanks Ciara - some woman! Keep up all the hard work
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Specific for 4 years and they are fantastic to join. It’s a lovely environment with fantastic coaches and a great social aspect also! Would highly recommend
Thanks Ailise - we appreciate you!
Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Specific highly enough. A great gym community and the coaches are the best of the best.
Thanks Maria!
Fantastic experience: Joined Specific over 2 years ago and since then they have played a massive role in my health and wellbeing. The team are fantastic and always looking to encourage you to push outside of your comfort zone. Classes are always really structured and the new booking and tracking app makes it very easy to manage your own progress! I would encourage every one to come down and try it for yourself, you won’t be disappointed.
Thanks Ciaran! Keep grafting - top man
Fantastic experience: Best gym ever! Friendly and knowledgeable PT team who go above and beyond to make sure everyone feels welcome and comfortable in the sessions. Brilliant atmosphere and Great booking system too. If you’re looking for a gym in Rush I’d definitely recommend checking out Specific
Thanks Susanne - we appreciate you!
Fantastic experience: I joined at the beginning of 2025 and have had a fantastic experience so far, the main reason I would recommend Specific is that workouts are planned in advance and you book a slot to suit your schedule - meaning you don't have to worry about planning a routine, you get in, follow the program and go home. So far I have not felt the need to 'find motivation' to go to the gym in the morning, it has quickly and easily become a part of my normal week.
Cheers to that Karl! Fair play to you.
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend this gym highly enough, good vibes and positive energy, it’s so easy to get hooked. You will most definitely notice results you won’t look back!
Thanks Suzy
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Specific on and off for the last couple of years, it’s one the best gyms I’ve been a member of. I’m away a lot with work but they managed to find a way to keep me involved, which I’m very grateful for, they always seem to go above and beyond, which is rare these days. Love the classes, the energy and encouragement the team give. If anyone is in doubt, do the trial and I promise you, you won’t look back! Thank you Guys
Thanks Lisa - we're delighted to have you part of the crew
Fantastic experience: I've been a member with Specific for over 2 years now. The trainers are all so friendly and professional. The classes are well planned and always give us something to work towards and hit personal goals. There's no judgement. All the members are really friendly. The equipment is top notch too.

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Specific enough. In the past I’ve joined gyms but always lost interest after a few months. With 8 week planned programmes, summer bbq, hikes, run club, xmas get together and of course the best coaches ever there’s plenty to keep coming back for!
Thanks Deirdre!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of this gym for over a year now, and the improvements in my strength and fitness have been remarkable. What sets this facility apart is its commitment to small group training sessions with intimate class sizes. The staff truly stand out—not only are they friendly, but they also have a deep knowledge of strength training, mobility and core fitness. The personalised approach and expert guidance have been instrumental in my fitness journey. Small class sizes ensure that each member receives individual attention and proper form correction. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to take your fitness to the next level, this gym provides a supportive and knowledgeable environment to help you achieve your goals.
Thanks Nick! Keep up the great work
Fantastic experience: An amazing gym with a great community! Specific gym provides you with great workouts and even better coaches that help guide and encourage you. The workouts are explained and demonstrated at every class and the coaches are always ready to help and give you the extra push that you need. It has given me so much confidence with such a welcoming environment and brilliant equipment. The app is so easy and a wide variety of times ensure you can always get a workout in. It also allows you to track your progress. Best gym around!
Thanks Anna - glad to have you as part of the crew
Fantastic experience: Just joined a few weeks ago but really enjoying it. Coaches are very friendly and great at checking and correcting techniques and also adjusting for injuries.

Fantastic experience: Can’t speak highly enough about specific! I started when I went back to work after maternity leave and the difference getting there has made to my headspace is amazing - every coach there is so welcoming and helpful and always up for a bit of craic too! The classes are always changing and never get too repetitive, so I always look forward to coming back. I’ve never been much of a gym go-er but Specific has converted me - I feel so much stronger after just a few months - highly recommend!!
We love being an option for the non gym go-ers! Glad to have you Rachel

Top man Kev - keep up the great work!

Thanks Karin - keep smashing it!
Fantastic experience: Specific gym is great for everyone no matter the age or physical activity. I’ve been coming to this gym for some while now. Been also training there during the whole pregnancy and the trainers modified some exercises to fit my abilities. The trainers genuinely care about your progress and are always ready to push you to achieve your goals, but they do so in a way that is encouraging. I highly recommend specific if you’re looking for a healthier lifestyle.
Delighted we were able to support your training while carrying baba, Annija! Happy, health mams club!
Fantastic experience: 2 days into my first week with Specific can’t imagine going to any other gym ever again
Thanks Ellie! Delighted to have you in the crew
Fantastic experience: I cannot speak highly enough of the guys at Specific. I've been a member since 2020 and every session is still fresh, new and challenging. The coaches are so knowledgeable and skilled, and they always create the most inviting environment for all gymgoers, regardless of ability and fitness level. No matter how you feel walking in the door, you are guaranteed a laugh and will leave feeling happy. I would highly recommend Specific to anyone - it's a different kind of gym in all the best ways!
Thanks Laura - one of the OGs! keep smashing it
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend it. It has been great for my mobility, fitness and general wellbeing. The coaches are the best around and always meet you at the door with a smile.
Thanks Clare!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! Great instructors, best gym around. Highly recommended it for fitness, mobility & general wellbeing for all ages. Well done to everyone there.
Thanks Lynda! Keep up the great work
Fantastic experience: Joined Specific last November and it has been a game changer for my overall fitness and wellbeing. Had lost momentum going to the gym myself and since joining I have made more progress than I ever had alone in such a short space of time. The structure and rotation of the classes makes it easy to build up weight and track improvements. All the team are extremely helpful and put genuine investment into ensuring you get the most out of Specific as you can. Highly recommended and the team deserve the continued success!
Top man Rob - serious effort going down!
Fantastic experience: I joined specific 7 months ago with a goal to improve my fitness and lose some weight. I met my goal with the help and guidance of all the coaches but the longer I train at Specific the less emphasis I put on weight and more on how the training is helping me feel in and out of the gym , energy levels, feeling stronger and generally happier. Specific is a very friendly and safe environment, every technique is explained well and demonstrated precisely and all done in a fun way. There are great community events that add a nice social aspect to the gym , however you might need one or two extra sweat sessions after the burgers and sausages at the summer bbq. I would highly recommend Specific .
All about those burgers, Brian! Keep up the great effort
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Specific for almost four years, and I can say with absolute certainty that it's still the best gym around! What's good? They have a flexible booking system and timetables that fit your schedule, high-quality equipment and a fresh programme every eight weeks to keep you motivated. They do run club, hiking club and social events too. Always a fun and supportive atmosphere at Specific with plenty of laughs along the way. Can't give enough credit to the incredible team of coaches that work there. Specific is so much more than just a gym—it's a community!
Thanks Suzan!
Fantastic experience: The coaches are super friendly and encouraging. They make everyone feel welcome. It's a great place to work out and feel supported.
Thanks Bernie!
Fantastic experience: Started with Specific 4 months ago after years away from the gym, i have loved every minute of it and have felt the benefits already. All the Instructor's in Specfic are amazing.
We’re so glad to have you, Claudia! Keep up the great work
Fantastic experience: Best gym environment and family
Fantastic experience: I joined Specific shortly after I moved to Rush as a way to get back into exercise, all the coaches provide such great support and encouragement that it never feels like an effort to go to the gym. They have created a great community within their members and give back to the community around them. They organise loads of activities to take part in outside the gym too, and encourage friends and families to get involved. If you are looking for a local community based gym to achieve your fitness goals, I couldn’t recommend this place more.
Thanks Evelyn!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, it really does what it says on the tin 2 happy, healthy years later and counting
Thanks Clare! Keep smashing it
Fantastic experience: Fabulous team, great atmosphere and sense of togetherness. Highly recommend if you’re not the usual gym type.
Thanks Will - keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: Specific Fitness is an ideal gym if you looking for a gym that has people of all levels of fitness. The coaches will do an assessment with you before you join and advise you on what equipment you need to use. No matter what session you go to there is people of different levels of fitness at them. It's not just a gym it's more like a big family that keeps growing. They even outside activities like walks,hikes where you get coffee or tea either at the finish or half way through it. Then there's the sports day like when we were younger only there's a bar be que afterwards and not forgetting the Christmas quiz. Overall it's a great gym and a good place to get fit,healthy and meet some new friends. Thanks coaches for getting me out in the evenings.
We love our gym family! Thanks Ger!
Fantastic experience: I have been with Specific since 2021 and I couldn't recommend them enough! The feeling of being part of a community & that you matter is unmatched. It is a safe space for all abilities and ages. All the trainers are the best of the best and will really push you to the best of your ability and more! I now couldn't be without specific! It really is all about the little wins while on your journey to a happier, healthier lifestyle and specific will always celebrate them with you along the way!
All about those little wins, Savannah! Keep up the great work
Fantastic experience: 10/10, all round legends

Fantastic experience: Having been a member of Specific for a few years now I could not recommended it more. The gym is more like a family than a gym.
