Primal Fitness Drogheda

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend this place enough! It’s a great gym with professional, friendly staff — they know exactly what they're doing and can point you in the right direction. It's definitely the best place in the county to get fit! With a wide variety of classes, even those with a busy schedule can always find a time that works. Love it!

Fantastic experience: A Gym That Makes You Enjoy Working Out I’ve been to regular gyms before, but I never stuck with them — I didn’t feel motivated, and I definitely didn’t hold myself accountable. That all changed when I joined Primal Fitness. I started their 8-week program in April and just finished it at the end of May. The difference was night and day. The structure of the program, combined with the support from the trainers, made a huge impact. From day 1 I felt included and never once felt uncomfortable or out of place. Having someone to check in with about my progress, weights, and even my nutrition gave me a real sense of accountability — something I never had in a normal gym. All the trainers are brilliant, but I want to give a special shoutout to Stephen, Louise, and Jakub, who were regularly around during my sessions. They were incredibly encouraging, always helpful, and created an atmosphere where I felt comfortable and capable from day one. Each week I saw progress — lifting heavier, feeling stronger, and learning proper technique. I even started paying more attention to my nutrition, not by following some fad diet, but just understanding how small changes could help me get better results without feeling restricted. Most importantly, I enjoyed going. That’s something I’ve never said about a gym before. If you’ve struggled to stay consistent or felt lost in a typical gym, Primal Fitness might be exactly what you need.

Fantastic experience: Loving my experience in primal fitness. All the coaches are just so friendly and helpful cant thank them enough and a special shout out to Louise who has gone above and beyond to help me on my new health fitness journey. Overall experience 10 out of 10 thanks guys.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing team. Louise, Stephen, Jacob and Josh have helped me so much over the last seven weeks. What an amazing place to train, meet new people and achieve goals. Thanks guys for guiding and pushing me✨️

Fantastic experience: Primal Fitnessa Drogheda is such a friendly welcoming environment where everyone feels welcome. Everyone is supported by all coaches to achieve their own personal goals . Check in by the coaches helped to keep me motivated and accountable throughout my journey. I cannot thank my coach Stephen enough for sticking with me throughout my journey. If you are thinking of joining a gym, then Primal Fitness Drogheda is the place you want to go.

Fantastic experience: As a nervous newbie to SGPT Sessions, I took the plunge and had a go! Best decision, an amazing encouraging team who go above and beyond to offer guidance and support. I was put at ease from day one, friendly members and good banter to be had. If you are nervous, on the fence like myself do it you won’t regret it. In just 3 weeks I have noticed a difference for the better. Fitter, healthier and happier.

Fantastic experience: I've been attending small group personal training (SGPT) classes at Primal Fitness Drogheda for the past 4 months, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. Every week, I’m seeing steady progress with my weight loss, thanks to the structured training and guidance from the incredible coaches. Everything is seamlessly managed through the gym’s app—workouts, calorie intake, and progress tracking—all in one place, making it easy to stay on top of my fitness journey. The coaches are brilliant: friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping every member succeed. Beyond the training, the atmosphere in the gym is fantastic. There's always great energy, a fun vibe, and a strong sense of community. It's not just a place to work out—it’s a place to enjoy the process. I honestly cannot recommend this gym enough for anyone looking for a supportive, effective, and enjoyable fitness experience!

Fantastic experience: Primal fitness thank you so much, you have the most unique set up in a gym that is absolutely fantastic, a little bit of magic :) the welcoming atmosphere and workout ethic is second to none. For the first time ever I am actually enjoying losing weight, am totally energised loving the early class workouts. The constant support and encouragement from the coaches is something you will not get anywhere else, guys you are all legends. It’s so refreshing to meet coaches that genuinely love what they do - special thanks to Louise for keeping me on track, being so patient and constantly encouraging

Fantastic experience: Iv just finished 6weeks PT with Louise. And to say I am delighted I joined primal fitness is an understatement!…I’m a busy mum of 4 and needed some “me time” but was extremely anxious to start as I had never stepped foot into a gym before!… Louise has been so helpful, held my hand through every session, nothing is ever too much and has patience of a saint!!!…The atmosphere is so friendly and definitely not what I imagined. They tailor your program on the app which I found so handy, there are times I couldn’t make the gym but I had my program on my phone so I could do some exercises at home and not feel like I’m missing a session!…so looking forward to starting my next 6weeks with Louise!

Fantastic experience: I’m so glad I found Primal Gym! I just finished their 4-week charity challenge, and I honestly feel stronger and fitter than I have in ages. If I had actually counted my calories and stuck to a proper calorie deficit, I’d probably be in serious shape right now. But instead, I took the “live a little” approach and didn’t take it too seriously—oops! Still, the results have been incredible, and I’m feeling better than ever. But here’s the real reason I’m hooked: the community. Primal isn’t just a gym, it’s like one big, slightly sweaty family. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed like I was a regular. The trainers are absolute legends—knowledgeable, motivating, and always there to push you to do your best, without making you feel like you’re about to pass out (most of the time). And the members? Such a great group of people who genuinely cheer each other on. It’s like having a personal cheerleading squad, minus the pom-poms. The workouts are tough, but in the best way. My favourite is the Lift Class. I call the Engine Room Hell though..I’ve definitely had moments where I wanted to throw in the towel, but then someone says, "You got this!" and I somehow find the strength to keep going. It’s that kind of environment—supportive and fun. If you’re looking for a gym that feels like home, where you can get strong, have fun, and not take yourself too seriously, Primal is the place. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants a great workout and an even better community! Just maybe count your calories—if you’re into that sort of thing.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to primal for maybe 7 years, could be even more. I love the atmosphere and all the trainers are so friendly and helpful. Love it!

Fantastic experience: I been training in primal fitness for the last couple months now I have to say it been brilliant the lads and lady’s have been great with me the group pt classes have been fantastic

Fantastic experience: If you are someone like me who has joined so many gyms and never goes then this is the place for you. There is absolutely no 'gymtimidation' here, it's super friendly and the trainers are so approachable and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Primal Fitness Drogheda has managed to combine the key elements of hard work, encouragement and accountability into a fun environment. Each and every member of staff shows genuine care and interest in your quest to hit your personal goals. If long term sustainable results are what you are after, then Primal is the place to go.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic Gym and BJJ school, coaches all very friendly, experienced and approachable, Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Awesome place, I've been to many gyms and none have had the great atmosphere of primal, very knowledgeable and professional instructors along great members make staying consistent with workouts and classes easy, definitely recommend .

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training regularly with Primal since the end of the first Covid lockdown, so about 3 years I’d say. The gym is brilliant - a combination of excellent trainers and members. There are no egos, everyone gets on with their training and there’s still room for a laugh or two. It’s the longest I’ve stayed in a gym. They even have me getting up at 5am for a 5.30 session and I’m not normally a morning person. The small group private training is brilliant. Working with Ben and Stephen, they can tailor the program specifically for your needs. The new app also adds another level of accountability and tracking. All in all I’d wholeheartedly recommend Primal Fitness to anyone. It doesn’t matter whether you’re starting out or are a seasoned gym goer.

At primal fitness, it’s all about community and healthy fitness, which encompasses the body, and mental health as well as healthy fitness lifestyle. I appreciate the events they plan for the members too!

Fantastic experience: I just finished the beginners BJJ course in Primal Fitness and couldn't recommend it enough!. Ben, the main coach is fantastic and great at breaking down each movement during training. It's suitable for all age groups and abilities. Everyone is so welcoming and wants to see you progress and succeed. I am continuing my training since the beginners course and loving every minute of it! Come on down and bring a friend, you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: Having recently had a baby I wanted to meet other mothers and babies in the locality. I contacted Bree directly and she was so helpful and encouraging. I have never stuck to a fitness regime until now. I feel great and its so nice to speak with other mothers in a similar situation. Bree adjusts all the exercises to ensure you can manage and gives clear demonstrations. Bree creates such a welcoming environment and it has easily become my favourite time of the week. Aileen Ward

Fantastic experience: I trained with Bree all throughout my pregnancy, the best decision I made. It helped me train safely and feel strong pre, during and post labour. I'm now attending her pre and post natal classes. I love how they are suited for all abilities and she fully understands the challenges after pregnancy whether it's physical recovery or a chat about babies! She's always encouraging and makes sure we are using the correct technique. The classes are always upbeat and good craic, you're guaranteed a laugh. I really look forward to them each week.

Fantastic experience: Bree’s classes have been an absolute god send for me - we moved to Ireland from London in 2019 and after having two babies in the midst of the pandemic I didn’t really know where to start with my fitness or with my confidence having felt increasingly isolated for the past two years. The prospect of walking into a regular gym class was so overwhelming, I don’t think I could have faced it (or found the childcare to do it!) I am so grateful for the opportunity Bree is giving new mums to get out of the house, meet other mums and regain fitness in such a supportive and safe environment. Her empathy and encouragement has been invaluable and an absolute game changer for my routine and state of mind.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant classes and run by a very good team

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend the Pre & Postnatal classes with Bree! The best way to get fit after your baby. Bree is always kind and motivating. Making sure you do your training according to your own physical level. I started the classes when my daughter was 4 months old. The best decision I ever did :)

Fantastic experience: I train in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and the gang there are great, excellent service. Thought well by Ben in the art of of Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Using the online glasses and group to stay motivated until we get moving again and it has been a god send. Great support and the workouts change everyday.

Fantastic experience: Im doing BJJ a 6 months now and really enjoying it! Id definitely recommend Primal to anyone who lives in/near Drogheda. Primal BJJ are affiliated with East Coast Jiu Jitsu Academy, who are one of the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu teams in Europe. So Bens coach would be Darragh OConaill.
