Best decision I ever made was to join Galway Strength & Performance. The coaches - Matty & Ayshea are knowledgeable, motivating and supportive. They take a genuine interest in their members and most importantly they get results. Highly recommend this gym!!!

Met Matty Costello during the week. Great guy. Best of luck with the new business. Gym has great set up and the equipment for powerlifting and strongman is fantastic. Seems to be a great community spirit. The wall of medals is impressive!

Best and favourite gym hands down. Such a lovely environment for anyone wanting to improve their lifting, whether it be for their own fitness goals or at a competitive level. Matty and Ayshea are so encouraging and tailor the programme to your goals with fantastic experience behind them in both coaching and competing themselves. Great equipment, the best people to train with and of course, the very gorgeous dogs.. everything you could possibly want!

If you're looking for a gym to compete in strength sports or to learn to lift then Galway Strength and performance is for you. I've being under guidance of Matty and Ayshea for over 2 years for strongman, and the progression I have made is incredible. I competed at Ireland's strongest Man being one of the youngest contenders with a strong finish, and look forward to the years ahead of me. I not only notice my own performance and Drive increase, but everyone around me aswell. I've seen some seriously impressive shows of strength by both men and women from this gym. I've also seen people start off with little to no experience in the gym earn big improvements over after a few months. It's a very welcoming and supporting gym so no need to be shy, we all started from the beginning and so can you.

By far the best gym I've ever been a member of. Whether you're interested in strongman or powerlifting or just want to lift weights and improve your general health it's got something for everyone. Ayshea is incredibly supportive and knowledgeable and gives you all the tools you need to succeed!

Great gym, Well equipped for strongman and staff are A++

Galway Strength and Performance has everything that anyone could want in a performance facility. Both Ayshea and Matty are exceptional coaches. The facility has all the necessary equipment and space for anyone in the strength and performance field. Additionally, anyone that is newer to the gym world or to training will be in great hands with two very experienced and knowledgeable coaches that provide a supportive and stress-free environment in which to train. I cannot say enough good things about this gym and the members.

Fantastic gym for all levels from beginners who are not used to the gym right through to high level strength athletes. Matty and Ayshea are both fantastic trainers and very knowledgeable in all areas from programming to nutrition and recovery, and are always happy to give advice or help in any way they can. There are a wide range of classes and membership options to suit different needs also. Highly recommended.

I have trained in alot of gyms but nothing compares to galway strength and performance. If it's your first time ever in a gym or you are training for competitions everybody is given the same attention by Matty and Ayshea. You literally have two of the strongest in Ireland as coaches to help you and I've never met two who have as much as a passion to help others achieve their goals in the gym.

Brilliant and welcoming gym. Has everything you need, with all the support you need from the owners Matty and Ayshea. I joined GSP on a beginner level programme and now competing at IPO powerlifting nationals in a few months, thanks to the tailored training programmes, support and motivation provided at GSP!

Whether you're an experienced competitor or you've never touched a barbell in your life, there's something here for you. Coaches Matty and Ayshea have a wealth of knowledge to offer you, having both competed and coached at many world championships worldwide, along with helping countless people achieve their goals. The gym is one of the best equipped gyms in the country. Along with 5 racks, there's a monolift, squat bar, deadlift bar, calibrated plates, 1000s of kilos of plates (steel and bumpers) and more strongman gear than you could know what to do with. If you're in Galway and you're not training here, you're missing out big time. Get in touch for a free consultation.
