Fantastic experience: After having a load of kids, and my only regular exercise being a slow walk at toddler pace, I needed to get back to minding my myself and getting healthy. Mick came highly recommended for Personal Training, and I understand why. Every session is fun, but you do get a good workout in. Mick works with you to achieve your goals and I would recommend him in a heartbeat. I'm already seeing results and feeling so much better about myself. And the fact that his venue is private and not in a busy gym is a huge plus for me. 10/10, Absolute Fitness is absolutely fabulous

Fantastic experience: After 25 years of no fitness training of any sort and out of shape by miles I found myself in absoloute fitness . Hard to take first steps ,but mick is a Gent and extremely professional . Adapting execrises just for me , building a routine for me and the private space is super. A gym which has equipment to suit everyone at all levels of fitness. Personal and small group training in kilkenny does not get any better than this .

I’ve never walked into a gym and felt comfortable before, but Mick is so supportive, nonjudgmental and positive that you can’t help but feel at ease and motivated at the same time. I leave every session feeling exhausted (in a good way!) and still excited for the next session. Thanks Mick!

Thanks so much for the generous words Adrian. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I really couldn’t recommend absolute fitness enough! I’ve been trained by mick for over a year now and I really can’t say enough good things about him. Mick from day one made me feel very comfortable and made sure we were at a pace that was okay for me. It can be scary to work out but with mick you really have nothing to worry about he is an absolute gem!!
Thank you very much Toni. I really appreciate the kind review.
Fantastic experience: I'm 57 years young living with Heart Failure but being introduced to this pure gentleman Mick Brennan at Absolute fitness has been life changing for me. Micks interest in the individual needs of his clients allied to his vast experience, knowledge base and very apparent dedication to his profession as a Personal Trainer is fantastic! I've never looked back. Cheers Mick! never felt so well inside & out!
Thank you so much for the kind words Sandra. Its really appreciated, thank you.
Fantastic experience: Mick at Absolute Fitness is a 5* personal trainer. He listens to what your goals are and works hard to help you achieve them. He's a great guy and really knows his stuff. I have worked out in the gym with Mick as well as via online training and have really enjoyed both. I have worked out in other gyms before and with other trainers but have never stuck with it. Mick's expertise and welcoming attitude certainly have made me stick with training this time. Mick motivates me to work hard through his encouragement and support.
Thank you very much for the kind review April.
Fantastic experience: I though enjoy trainning with Absolute fitness, Mick always ensures I hit my goals and get the best out of every session in a fun manner. I could not recommend him enough

I've been training with mick for over a year now and every session we get results and at the same time have a good time. If your just looking to start your fitness journey or already a into keeping fit and playing sport mick has something for you. Training is always good and a friendly atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Been training with Mick for a few years now and I’m definitely fitter and stronger. He’s a fantastic personal trainer, we always have good crack while getting the job done. And I always leave feeling satisfied with the training sessions and looking forward to the next one would 100% recommend
Thanks so much for the review Kevin
Fantastic experience: Great personal trainer who pushes you all the way but has an ability to make training fun and enjoyable ... fully recommend him
Thanks Steve, appreciate you taking the time to leave a review :)
Fantastic experience: Mick is an excellent PT and made all the sessions enjoyable by changing them up and doing a mixture of cardio, streching and weights. Always felt great after the sessions and was very happy with the results. He even has good taste in music :)
Great, thanks Tony. Glad you like the music too!
Fantastic experience: I started with Mick back In 2019 I was coming off the back of and injury and surgery. After being with other PTs I had not achieved what I wanted to achieve. When I first met with Mick, he sat with me and took a full history and wanted to know what I wanted to achieve and what sort of a time frame I thought I could achieve it in. Mick is a great PT but not only for the physical side he would also get to know his clients and know when the mental health might be stopping us making progress and this was very helpful when I had a few set backs and thought about packing it all In. The sessions are varied and challenging and it's not one programme for a long period of time Mick switches it up and educates you why he is doing this. I highly recommend Mick as he is very professional and has a passion for what he does.
Thanks so much Amanda for the kind review, it's very much appreciated!
