Fitz Fitness works with people who are committed to becoming the very best version of themselves. Our clients are prepared to invest heavily in the realisation of their dream results and make decisions based on a “greater input, greater output” mentality. If your not worried about results and your prepared to compromise quality classes for cheaper PAYG classes, then we may not be the right gym for you.
Our team members are not just trainers. A trainer just beats you through exercise, makes you sweat and has no real concern about your short-term and long-term results. Here at Fitz Fitness, we consider ourselves to be coaches. A coach identifies your goals and helps you break down barriers to get there and that is exactly what we do here at Fitz Fitness.
We pride ourselves on being an ideal gym for beginners or for those who feel intimidated by the big commercial gyms. We BELIEVE you can achieve and do anything you want in life with Time, Energy & Effort. We help you set higher standards for yourself and build confidence in a hands-on nurturing and non-intimidating environment. We also help you adjust your thoughts around diet and exercise and see these as the pillars to achieving more in your life. We aren’t here to just to make you better inside of the gym, but also outside. Our theory is that most people don’t have a diet or training problem.
They know what healthy food is but life is so crazy that it’s easy to make bad choices after a busy day at work or skip training because you’re too tired. That’s where we help. We give you proven nutritional strategies that are simple and wildly effective, coupled with short and intense training to melt boat loads of unwanted fat and replace it with lean muscle tone. Once you start implementing these changes you’ll begin to feel more energised, you’ll feel happier and you’ll achieve more. You’ll feel less stressed, less anxious and actually more positive and driven.
Joining our members Facebook group is also part of every membership and allows us to support everyone fully 7 days a week. If you are not on Facebook don’t worry, many members just create a ‘junk’ profile purely to access our members group and are not actually ‘on’ Facebook.

“Having worked from home for 7 months, my best friend was the fridge! One morning while working from home and feeling sorry for myself I heard the half 9:30 class from my apartment and Trish giving it socks up in the gym. Within an hour I booked in a call with John, joined FitzFitness in September of 2020 and haven’t looked back since!
FitzFitness has been the only thing that got me through Covid LOCKDOWNS! The online classes helped me maintain my weight loss and keep the happy endorphins high. John is always there if you have any issues or just need a chat. The food plans are simplistic and show you that you don’t need to starve to loose weight.
I am usually exceptionally self conscious in the gym I worry about my arms do they look too flabby, can people see my tummy roles in this top etc. but John and Trish have created the nicest and most accepting environment I’ve never experienced it in a gym before (and I’ve been a member of loads of gyms!!!) … it also helps that the classes are unreal and the trainers are lovely.
What is most important to me is that FitzFitness has given me my confidence and fun back. They have helped me turned my life around ! I might not have lost 2 stone (yet!!) but inside I am like a new person”
John, Trish and the gang are a world apart from so called “gyms” I joined before. FitzFitness is about changing bad habits, understanding bad habits, maintaining good habits and then it’s not a habit anymore, while getting stronger and healthier along the way.
Everything I learned about nutrition with FitzFitness, has been a game changer for me. I now don’t think about the next meal or even feel hungry 95% of the time as I have satiety and that just amazes me and its all down to the amazing trainers.
I can’t recommend FitzFitness highly enough, you will not only get fit, feel better but you will understand the whole process as John, Trish and the gang are not only the best trainers around but also the best damn teachers in nutrition. I now train because I enjoy it so much and also because John, Trish and the gang make it so enjoyable on a personal level.
I was stuck in a rut, doing nothing but a bit of walking and not eating correctly. My food habits were, to say the least, unhealthy. I had a BMI of 30.4 and was classed as obese. My energy levels were very low and it took a lot out of me to do anything any bit exertive. To run up the stairs was a no no as I had no energy for it. On occasion I did run up the stairs and was horrified by all the bits that wobbled! Also, my wardrobe was shrinking as nothing fitted.
Then COVID hit, again. Not a problem for Fitz Fitness as they had all their classes on line. If I missed a class I could go on line to the recording and do it in my own time. John and Trish encouraged me all the way and still do. The classes are blood pumping but I have improved greatly. I have dropped nearly 17 kg and my BMI is at 24.6 which is a healthy weight for me. I have toned all over and have muscles where there was once none. More importantly, my clothes are fitting!!!
I could not have done this without the help, support and experience of John and his team. I do really enjoy doing the classes as the banter with the other members is mighty. I would wholeheartedly recommend Fitz Fitness to get your life back on track.
We actually didn’t get off to the perfect start. Five weeks in, Ken phoned me as he was concerned about his progress, he only lost a pound in 4 weeks. I assured him that this was normal and explained that it was crucial to remain patient and more importantly, CONSISTENT. We were focused on one thing (no snacking) and Ken thought it was all a bit too simple.
But Boom, the following week he was down 5 pounds and 12 weeks later he was down 20 pounds. Ken then set the goal of being down 50 pounds before his 50th Birthday a few months later (despite being in lockdown) .. . .. And of course he absolutely smashed it
What I’m most impressed with is that he has maintained that weightloss for well over a year. He can now run 10km in 54 mins, Deadlift over 100kg and as you can see from the pic on the right, he is in phenomenal shape .
Since joining, Ken has never missed a scheduled session be it in gym or online. The secret to his success is NOT detox diets, magic pills, crazy insane workouts…. It’s doing the simple things right Consistently
I’m sure we can all agree that Ken is an absolute inspiration. We start all clients on an initial challenge to get the ball rolling but once momentum is created we think long term .

FITz FITNESS: Opinions
Fantastic experience: This is a fantastic gym with wonderful coaches who are always there to help and guide you. I signed up for the strength and conditioning classes in 2021 as I was diagnosed with osteoporosis in my hips and spine. The combination of classes and medication has resulted in my latest scan showing hips reversing to osteopenia and great improvements in the bone density of the spine. I’m so grateful to have joined this gym and met some wonderful people whom I now call friends.
Fantastic experience: So delighted I signed up again in January. Really enjoying my classes and feeling fitter and stronger than ever. Energy levels are better than 20 years ago and I finally feel like I can keep up with all the demands of young kids and work/ life in general. The trainers are all amazing and have taken fantastic care of me, modifying exercises and tailoring my workouts to take in to account a number of injuries and surgeries I have had in the last few years. I couldnt recommend it highly enough. I was just saying today I feel like I've gone from surviving to thriving and it is 100%down to John and the team at Fitz Fitness. Thanks so much lads, you'll have a life long member in me!
Fantastic experience: I join Fitzfitness after seeing the results of my husband weight loss last year. I never been to personal training session but Fitzfitness cater for everyone. I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and the coaches gave me modifications for the exercises my body can’t do. I will recommend Fitzfitness to my friends and family. This gym is different because the team really care for their clients .
Fantastic experience: I had never been a member of a gym before, but John and the team made it feel like the most natural thing in the world. But this is more than a gym, it's a community, such a friendly and supportive atmosphere. And most of the time the music is excellent, unless someone puts on some Westlife. Best decision I ever made, couldn't recommend it enough.

Fantastic experience: Well what can I say about FitzFitness except that they've gotten me back on track, fitness wise, after nearly a 10 year break. I stopped playing sports about 10 years ago and since then I've dipped in and out of cycling and jogging, but only really when training for a specific event. I knew about FitzFitness from seeing the sign while driving though Ballincollig village but never did anything until I turned 41 last year, when I finally decided to sign up for a 12 week strength and conditioning program, and after a great call with John I was member and I haven't looked back since. All the instructors at FitzFitness are excellent and really made me feel comfortable when I first started at the gym. What really stood out for me was the way that the instructors managed to give one to one attention to people in the class, when needed, while also keeping everyone else in the class motivated throughout the 45 minute classes. Another great thing about FitzFitness is the easy to use Phone Apps they have for booking classes, tracking progress and seeing what exercise program is scheduled for the coming month. All in all I'd recommend FitzFitness to anyone that's looking for a gym for the first time or even for someone who's looking to change up or improve their current exercise routine.
Fantastic experience: FITz Fitness fully lives up to how it promotes itself. This is most definitely a gym for those that don’t normally like gyms. A team of highly qualified trainers are always on hand to provide support and training in a relaxed friendly environment. Irrespective of your level, anyone can feel comfortable walking in the door and made to feel part of the FITz fitness family. There is always a great atmosphere in the studio with everyone supporting each other. The programs are well structured and enjoyable and once you take on board the expert advice you will see positive results. Me personally, it’s been a great experience and one I have thoroughly enjoyed and I would highly recommend FITz fitness to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic team to work with.
Fantastic experience: I joined Fitz Fitness last Summer and it was the most enjoyable fitness classes I have ever been too. They have great options for indoor and outdoor training and various classes that you can attend. All the coaches are outstanding and are very attentive when it comes to any questions you have about nutrition. Fitz Fitness put the fun back into Fitness. Their apps are very user friendly and help you to hit your daily goals and tasks and lay out important info each day on subjects like importance of sleep, good nutrition, why strength training is great and so many more. I honestly couldn’t recommend Fitz Fitness more highly and if I was still living in Cork, I would still be attending classes in Fitz Fitness. For any person thinking of joining the gym make this your first port of call, you certainly won't be disappointed.
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend the gym. For me it's about getting toned and having a good place to train in. There is no previous knowledge required. The classes are fun and fast and it's very friendly. They will also help with diet and will adjust any exercise if you have any injuries. For me it's a great for my headspace. I always feel more upbeat after a class. If you want 45 minutes of me time check it out.
Fantastic experience: In my experience it’s about your initial motivation. In my case it was driven by a desire to be more healthy and ultimately give myself a more positive platform for the future. For me - Fitting into your clothes, feeling more confident, hitting a target weight etc. were all important but secondary to the health benefits. What I can say about the program is it gave me a focus and real accountability to keep me on track. What were initially aspirational goals became solid commitments that I felt accountable for. The end result is that I am losing weight, highly energised and motivated and very importantly - not suffering at all!!! My diet is good and I do y feel like I’m losing out. Of course I’m not eating the s**t that we all already know is bad for us - there is no magic wand. I’m eating great natural and unprocessed food every day and when I see the results it makes me even more motivated. Having a support structure around you while you are on this journey is really important. No bulls-**t……it isn’t easy. You need to want to really achieve something…..but if you do then the program will help you make it happen. No short cuts but it starts with you….if you want it…..then go for it. You will not be sorry!!
Fantastic experience: I am 6 weeks into the 12 weeks challenge and am loving the experience. I have lost 14 pounds to date which I am thrilled with, all the instructors are lovely and very good at motivation, the app is fantastic with all the updates, tips and good food ideas, overall a very professional service with constant checking in, I would highly recommend this to others.
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Fitz Fitness. The trainers are very friendly and are always there for advice. The atmosphere in the gym is always a friendly one. The classes are tough but so effective. I'm really enjoying my time there and looking forward to what's ahead with the new premises.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym with a fantastic Staff. Got great results over the last 2 years. Delighted to recommend.
Fantastic experience: Great gym, amazing classes (indoors and out) and the loveliest staff! Fitzfitness is one of the best gyms I've been to and it's because of the overall vibe! Everyone is so welcoming and friendly. Would highly recommend
Fantastic experience: I joined Fitz fitness for a 12 week program and I got fantastic results I went from being 114kg to 97kg in just 12 short weeks looking forward to keeping it goin for great results
Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend highly enough been to a few gyms throughout the years never seem to stick fall out after few months but I've just felt so comfortable from day one . Met great people and surprising my self all the time brilliant feel good gym .. My happy place !!!!
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of FitzFitness for the past two years and I have to say it has been the decision I have made-fitness level is great and everyday tasks both at home and at work are not an issue-not bad for a 50 year old!
Positive experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism
Fantastic experience: I have been an active member of Fitz Fitness for over a year now, I manage a session either outdoors or in the gym 6 days a week most weeks. I had piled on a lot of weight in a two year period and was generally a bit fed up. I signed up with FF after seeing John's ad on Facebook, they also came highly recommended by my daughter. I made up my mind to stick to the plan....... both training and diet..... and achieved my goal. Even though I was (reasonably) firm in my resolve, the help and support provided by John and the excellent team meant that quitting was not an option! Even fellow members were very supportive when I was gaspin' in my 4XL tee shirts at the start and that kinda sums up the overall atmosphere and attitude at FF. The most important thing about the FF way of doing things is that it works and works well.
Fantastic experience: Super staff ..Super workout.
Fantastic experience: I joined 5 weeks ago and it’s the best decision I ever made. John and Trish are outstanding coaches. There two of the best PT’s I’ve ever had pleasure of training with and there experience and guidance that have helped me on my fitness journey is second to none. They put the FUN back into Fitness and I couldn’t be happier to be losing weight, feeling super and training 4/5 days a week with them, helping me every step of the way with all my food related questions and have clear understanding of my goals. Their apps are super easy user friendly and help you to hit your daily goals and tasks and lay out important info each day on subjects like importance of sleep, good nutrition, why strength training is great and so many more. I honestly couldn’t recommend Fitz Fitness more highly and am so excited to see where the next year of training with these two legends gets me and to keep on this fitness train for a better and happy overall lifestyle. ️♀️♀️
Fantastic experience: John, Trish & all the team are brilliant. The online classes are great and really help to keep me motivated.
Fantastic experience: I have worked with John for 8 weeks and found it the best. They analyze your current state and work towards your requirements. By the end of my training I felt I have enough energy to complete a 5k at a stretch. I was never advised to cut down my diet but they worked converting it towards stamina. Thanks a million for all your best work John.
Fantastic experience: Friendly easy going enjoyable experience
