    I am with Fitz Fitness since September 2022, and I have never been happier to be part of a health and wellness group. Over the course of my life (I’m 50) I have had various levels of Personal Training, including one on one coaching, online coaching, and other classes, but Fitz Fitness has been the best experience for me. I am seeing great results, I have toned up, lost belly fat, and increased my cardio vascular fitness, all while enjoying the setting, learning from the excellent coaching staff, and trying lots of new exercises. The class schedule is excellent for most working patterns, and the programs work for new beginners, and the more experienced alike. For the first time in my life, going to workout is not a chore. Fits Fitness takes the “work” out of “workout”.

    A fantastic gym and I would highly recommend Fitz Fitness. I’ve been attending for over 8wks and just love it. There are lots of classes to choose from and its easy to book via their dedicated app. More importantly the classes are suitable for all levels of fitness and I always leave feeling energised . John and his team are great - extremely knowledgeable , always encouraging and pushing to get the best out of all their members. What I love most about Fitz Fitness is that there is a really nice welcoming atmosphere and everyone is there to support each other - the Fitz Fitness Family !

    It’s almost 1 year since I initially joined Fitz Fitness and I can honestly say it’s been the best decision I’ve ever made for my health. Prior to joining, my only goal was to lose weight but a year later, I realise that Fitz Fitness has helped me achieve that and so much more; consistency, routine, strength, positive mindset and confidence. Ironically, I haven’t weighed myself once during my membership as I’ve been so content with the progress I’ve made (which is measurable in more meaningful ways). I haven’t once dreaded coming to class and I put that down to the fun and welcoming atmosphere instilled by the coaches. Additionally, the team are very knowledgeable and encouraging, making the gym a safe space for all. The class times are ideal to accommodate busy work schedules and bookings are easy to make via the app. I’ve recruited two family members to join just by word of mouth - I never stop going on about how great it is!! Would recommend to all! Thanks to John and all the team at Fitz Fitness 👏🏼

    Joined this and wasn’t in to gym work and the team are brilliant. Even in the group classes the coaches (Conor and Clodagh) are fantastic and help people and show them individually how to do the exercises correctly. So glad I joined and feeling great. They also look at your food and eating habits and provide you with help in this area as well. Very professional and friendly at the same time I always feel comfortable and look for to going to the classes. Credit to John he has put in a lot of hard work but has paid off I highly recommend Fitz Fitness!!!!

    A fantastic place! I joined Fitz Fitness back in August and initially signed up to the 12 week program but stayed on as it was such a great environment! I found within only the first 4 weeks I had completely changed my eating habits due to the nutrition advice and supports in place. I started lifting weights that I had never lifted before - weight flew off and I was and am feeling much better and stronger for it! The coaches are amazing and have a wealth of knowledge to help you through all of the programs! What I love most about Fitz fitness is that exercise is made fun and every month there is a new program with new things to learn - highly recommend to anyone who’s looking to improve their fitness or health in an enjoyable and supportive environment 👍

    Having been a hater of gyms, I love this place. Have been attending for 5 years (with Covid break). Classes are great, varied, trainers all good. The hardest part is getting oneself there, but once there you’re swept along on the wave of class energy. No posturing; everyone just gets on with it. And you can do everything at your own pace, whether that’s full on or ‘modified’, so the same class works for all different levels. Fitz Fitness is the best thing I’ve done for myself!

  • 5/5 Linda C. 10 months ago on Google
    Absolutely just so happy that I was highly recommended Fitz Fitness from a family member and I'm loving my health and fitness journey there so far. It's an amazing gym full of supportive and motivating, down-to-earth coaches. Their clients in our group classes are a lovely friendly bunch of people who have a smile, a joke, bit of banter and always looking out for each other and pushing each other on. Bootcamp has been amazing for me to reset myself and focus on areas in food, fitness and overall wellbeing that I was struggling with. I'm definitely a fully fledged Fitz Fitness member now and look forward to each group session I have!

    I started in Fitz Fitness in April for my first 12 weeks and I can honestly say that it's a gym like no other. It's a community of people who just want to improve fitness and build strength. The coaches are there for you 100% of the time to encourage and answer any questions and give the extra push that's needed! 100% would recommend to a friend.

  • 5/5 Kate L. 6 months ago on Google
    I joined the FITz Fitness 12-week program to get kick started back into being more active. I am pleased to say it has been a fantastic experience. The whole team is welcoming and so friendly. The classes have been great and are continually changing to keep pushing you to do better. Now that the 12 weeks is over, I have officially joined the gym and love being a part of this community. I feel stronger, have more energy and am seeing results. I highly recommend you give it a go if you want to make a change to your fitness and overall health.

  • 5/5 Dave O. 6 months ago on Google
    I absolutely love the strength and conditioning gym I go to! It has been a game-changer on my weight loss journey. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, always pushing me to reach my goals. The variety of equipment and workout routines keeps things interesting, and I've seen amazing results in my strength and overall fitness. I can't recommend this gym enough for anyone looking to shed pounds and get stronger!

  • 5/5 Terri L K. 6 months ago on Google
    I have been attending Fitz Fitness for about 12 weeks. I have attended 3-4 classes per week during this time. By being consistent with the programme that John and the team put together each week and month, I have noticed the following wins in my fitness progress: I am stronger! I can lift almost 2x the amount of weight in most categories of lifting I have more energy! The classes are tough but each person chooses their pace and the coaches will encourage and challenge each person appropriately. My body shape is changing! Today I am wearing a dress that felt uncomfortable in 12 weeks ago. There is no magic pill to getting results, but if you want a strategic way to gain fitness, get stronger and lose weight, Fitz Fitness is a great choice.

  • 5/5 Avril F. 6 months ago on Google
    I joined Fitz Fitness in 2022 after spending way too long thinking about it.I initially started on the 12 week program and I’m still here! It took a lot for me to walk through the door and push myself way out of my comfort zone but I can truly say that it has been one of my better life decisions. Clichéd I know but I only wish I had done it sooner. It hasn’t been easy at times trying to get through challenging workouts and at times I’ve really struggled but I now feel stronger and find it’s what I need. I would never have thought that my days would be built around my sessions in the gym but it is integral to my mental health now and a space that I feel safe in to be at my most vulnerable.None of this would be possible without the guidance, support and encouragement of John and his team and the fellow members who make it possible to have fun and to enjoy doing one of Johns finishers 😜😜 For anyone thinking about joining a gym, stop thinking, make the call, it’ll be a step you won’t regret, It’s my happy place now😍

    I signed up for the 6 week challenge and have enjoyed it so much I will definitely be extending my membership. There is such a great atmosphere in the gym, everyone is so friendly and all the trainers bring a variety of styles to each class so it’s never the same work out twice. Would highly recommend Fitz Fitness

  • 5/5 Rachael S. 5 months ago on Google
    I've been a member of Fitz Fitness for over 2 years. Anyone that has been there for any length of time will tell you what happens within those 4 walls (blood sweat and tears aside) is really special. All walks of life, all levels of fitness are welcomed and supported equally. The sense of community and friendship is like no other and the workouts are pretty dam good too! I also love how the app makes getting multiple sessions a week in so easy, there are plenty of options and less reasons to talk yourself out of going! Give it a go, once you join you won't leave!

  • 5/5 brian g. 4 months ago on Google
    Extremely welcoming and friendly environment. Definitely a gym for people who don't like regular gyms. Great workout structure provided including guidance of good food and bads foods to eat. Can't recommend Fitz fitness enough. I will be signing up again after my six weeks are up.

  • 5/5 John C. 5 months ago on Google
    I’ve enrolled in a few different programs over the years and I’ve never felt as comfortable and welcome to a program as much as I have at Fitz fitness. They have created a great community and provide a great atmosphere when working out, the program itself is really challenging but made achievable by the great support provided by the instructors. The set up, the clients and instructors create a great space to help you reach your individual goals.

  • 5/5 Cathryn O L. 3 months ago on Google New
    I joined Fitz Fitness a year ago because I wanted to lose a little weight. Not only did I lose weight and maintain that weight, I am fitter and stronger physically and mentally than I have ever been. I love going to the classes. The trainers are amazing and so helpful. They show you how to do the exercises properly and make sure you are using the equipment correctly. They organise challenges at different times during the year to keep you motivated.The other members are very friendly, inclusive and helpful. Thank you @fitzfitness.

  • 5/5 Irene S. 10 months ago on Google
    I've been with Fitz Fitness for about a month now, doing their 6 week programme. I love it. The team are great, extremely helpful, with an extremely comprehensive, balanced and easy to follow programme. I've been determined to put the work in, and I'm getting great results so far. I love building strength and the team have helped me with any concerns I've had. The other gym goers are lovely. Can't recommend John and his team highly enough.

  • 5/5 Matt M. 1 year ago on Google
    Hello,my name is Matthew. I joined Fitz fitness a little over three months ago. Like a lot of people who started this journey, the unknown was facing me. From day one, the professionalism and more importantly, the friendlies of all the staff working for Fitz fitness have and are amazing! I have seen such a transformation in both my physical and mental well-being sky rocket! Anyone who is thinking about joining Fitz fitness, I couldn't rate them enough! They're amazing! Special mention to Patricia, Alan,Mags and Dave.

  • 5/5 Billbo 8 months ago on Google
    I can't recommend Fitz fitness highly enough. From the coaches to the other members, everyone is very welcoming and helpful. Whether it's to lose weight or get fit and healthy or lose weight by getting fit and healthy the S&C program is fantastic. The classes are great and the time flies. The interactive app is great as you can always communicate with the coaches if you have any questions. 5 stars.

  • 5/5 Adrian M. 1 year ago on Google
    I joined FitzFitness Feb ‘22. Having been a member of various other fitness studios both PT and general gyms. I have to say Fitz has been the best. From a physical aspect where you get great results and brilliant guidance and also as important the sense of community at FitzFitness is brilliant. Thanks to John and his team for making this happen. Adrian.

  • 5/5 Tim M. 1 year ago on Google
    Fitz Fitness Ballincollig is a fun safe space to change your life. I love the flexibility of booking one of 5 or 6 classes per day on the app and the classes are non judgemental it is an easy place to fit in and every class has people of all abilities from those on their first few classes to those there for years. If you want to take that first difficult step this is the place to do it.

  • 5/5 annette s. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been attending Fitz Fitness for several years now and I absolutely love this place. The coaches are amazing, they offer fantastic advice on health, fitness and nutrition, but most importantly they are great crack too. The times on offer to attend various classes are brilliant and I’m often up at 5.30am to attend the first class of the day at 6am (which more often than not are full). I have tried difficult gyms and classes over the years but this is the only one I’ve ever stuck with this long, and I have no intention of going anywhere. Fitz fitness is stuck with me for a long time to come!!!

  • 5/5 Marian O D. 1 year ago on Google
    I’ve joined gyms before but never stuck with it. Until I joined Fitz Fitness in 2019- this time was different and I’m a member since. It’s the attention to detail that impresses me most. Every class is given the trainers full attention, exercises are tweaked so you are doing them correctly. The strength I’ve gained has had a huge effect on my health especially as I had previously suffered regularly from back pain. Class times and variety are in abundance. You are pushed to do your absolute best and results follow. Staff are always on hand to assist in any way they can.

  • 5/5 Tracy Jane K. 2 years ago on Google
    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!

  • 4/5 Peter B. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic gym, great atmosphere and a great holistic approach to long term goals, signed up for a year as i find this training fun and varied

  • 5/5 Edward S. 2 years ago on Google
    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.

  • 5/5 Nessan F. 1 year ago on Google
    I'm on Week 9 having signed up for 12 weeks Strenght and Conditioning in June. I was a little apprehensive being 60 years old and having never done anything like this before, but I can honestly say, it was a fantastic decision. There are times, weights, classes to suit everyone, with coaches and team members catering for everyone's individual needs. Yes physically I am stronger and fitter, but the biggest win for me is my mental well being, I have more positivity and mental energy in everything I do. FitzFitness has certainly given me an outlet to strengthen and condition both my mind and body. Thanks everyone 👏👏👏

  • 5/5 Paul H. 1 year ago on Google
    As I approach the decade that my wife refers to as 'snipers alley', I wanted to get fitter & stronger to best enjoy life into my sixties and seventies. I needed something more than exercise, I needed motivation to want to exercise and the knowledge of how to look after myself to get the benefits from exercise. The team at Fitz Fitness instruct, encourage, cajole and occasionally push you to do a little more; heavier, longer, faster, harder in a way that makes you want to improve. The group dynamic is great where an 'ould fella felt comfortable working out with ladies and gents of all ages and fitness levels. There is lively banter and craic between the group (quietens down as the session progresses), and then you get a hand on your shoulder and quietly spoken advice on technique to realise that the instructor is keeping a weather eye out to keep everyone safe and improving. There were occasions when I finished a workout wondering if my legs would carry me to the car, yet feeling great on it... underlining that I had to commit and put the work in but at Fitz Fitness the team make it fun, and you will stick with something you enjoy doing. I signed up for the 90 day program with the plan to get back into the habit of exercise, to gradually improve my fitness and have a good base to continue at home. I have changed my eating and drinking habits for the better, I am sleeping better than I have for years, I am fitter and stronger. If you are reading this then you are likely considering joining a program.... my advice is DO IT, you will not regret it.

  • 5/5 Tim C. 1 year ago on Google
    I’m halfway through the 12 week programme with John and the team at Fitz Fitness. I couldn’t speak more highly of it. It’s so enjoyable and I’m seeing great results. I will definitely be signing up for the rest of the year once the 12 week programme is over. Such a nice atmosphere in the gym. There’s loads of classes on each day so it’s easy to find a time that suits. No matter what your level of fitness, it’s such a welcoming gym. Great advice with your diet and nutrition too. The lads check in with you weekly and are always on hand if you’ve any problems. I’d highly recommend joining Fitz Fitness.

  • 5/5 David R. 1 year ago on Google
    Really great offering, very challenging but in a good way, the coaches are very well trained, supportive and will push you if you need it. My fitness has greatly improved, from being unfit to now noticing how much more able I am for exercise. Their app is excellent with tons of helpful hints and tips as well as recipes. It’s not a conventional gym but class based, mainly strength and conditioning but also cardio classes on offer throughout the day.
