Your New Gym… (by Tom)
Hey,
When I started with the lads it was always my goal and plan to get you all the gym you deserved. A place that we would all be proud to bring friends and family members down to train in and a place where Will and Colm can do what they do best.
From Donnybrook to Dundrum we have looked at them all. Its time to bite the bullet and go for it. We found a premises and think its the best of all that we have seen and looked at. Our plan is to have the same brilliant atmosphere and community feel in a bigger and brighter premises.
Oh and place to hold the European Qualifiers, too.
We have found that place:
- It has 2 roller doors for much needed air and space during nasty metcons.
- It is 3,000 square feet, and has the option of fitting in a mezannine as time passes by.
- Male and Female changing rooms
- There will be a check in desk and also a small shop, eg fish Oil, Foam Roller, Hoodies
- We will have showers in place by the end of March
So the plan is to be here on the 1st of December. (Touch Wood!!)
Please let us know any thoughts you may have as we love to hear them and any questions you may have.
Thanks so much,
Tom

Looks the business lads, its accessible, being a stones throw from the M50, large, has changing facilities…. and no doubt will rock.
Heres to being in by Dec 1st!
I shall christen it with my first muscle up
.. hopefully…
Looks nice and big.well deserved lads.
Looks great lads. cant wait to collapes on the floor after a fight gone bad
Wow. Thats a savage new space for the gym lads. Well done!
Congratulations guys, well deserved
Looks great guys can’t wait
Also lads if you need a Van to move stuff shout me
New place looks nice, being a northsider & not too familiar with the southside how much more of a drive is the gym from the place in Tallaght? Can you avoid the M50?
5min mate depending on traffic 10 max it is not that far at all just 3 junctions away
“Possibilities…” is right. That place looks huge. Nice!!
It looks way bigger than the current place; the gym must be partaking in project hugening too. Well done, it looks brilliant! The fact that’s it’s now only 3km from my door is an added bonus.
That strectch of the M50 usually takes 10 mins, 15 if traffic is heavy. Depending on where you’re coming from on the Northside, and the time of day, you could come out the N11 and turn off at Leopardstown.
I really like the articles from Saturday too, I sent one on to a couple of friends.
Looks the business.
Thats great, not even 5 mins from my door… Yay!!
Noice, you have a gym and an indoor car park all in one!
Thanks for the votes of support and confidence so far guys.
In other news, Monday 12noon sessions are back on if you’re around.
Interesting article on the Ashville website – especially about learning the meditative aspects of de-stressing. I’d be very interested to see how people in the gym approach their goals from a mental perspective. What do you do to get yourself in that frame of mind to blast through the barriers we face. tricks techniques whatever…I’d like to know.
Great place!! I can cycle from my house…
Oh yes. Jeff arriving to the gym in gimp gear.
Wow, that place looks fantastic, am very excited about this, I’ve started planning the wall murals already, sure you ever know Colm I might actually get the right green this time *wink*
Oh how’s everyone getting on with their 30 day challenge by the way, going well? Anybody owe us some burpees yet?
Thanks a million lads, we are in the middle of forming a company and once the lease passes inspection by the solicitor we will sign and motor on.
A weekend will have us in no bother, cheers for the offer of a van dale. Will be giving you a shout and getting that headed paper and envelopes off you too
John- I tend to just keep banging away in the hope that the pain will be over faster. It does make a big difference with the big lifts if I really tell myself that its going to go and its a “liiiight weight buddy”
The place looks great lads, best of luck with it. It’s huge!
Cheers Ger, they alwasy look massive but get small fast when you put in changing rooms, mma area, and platforms
John, I take a few approaches…
-pretend “the bad man” will get me if I stop. Unfortunately he’s a bit unfit these days so that ain’t really working
-Turn the brain off completely and go into robot mode. This works a bit better than the previous method, especially for “heavy” lifts
-Various deals with various deitys.
I’ll let ya know if any of them actually start working!
Lads
I can fit a suprising amount of stuff in my hatchback vectra, so can help move gear when required.
Thanks Damien…LOL
A WOD could be move everything from Old to New premises for time.
Looks brilliant guys and easy enought to get to from the M50. Probably more direct then Tallaght.
Well done !
ps The new luas line will be passing your door also. So easy enought to get from town.
Dale if you were going to the new place from the greenhills rd would your best bet be to jump on the M50?Is it longer if you want to avoid the M50? Will do you have any fish oil left up the gym if not Tony do you still have some spare?
Much quicker on the M50 paddy, its a straight run down to junction 15 and its a minute from that junction
Will there be any change to the schedule with the new location?
ID say the M50 is miles quicker mate , the traffic has being much better on the m50 these days as they are slowly opening the third lane and it make a whole lot of difference.
I come from the Blueblell from work and it is quite quick just nipping down the m50 , on a good day i have being know to get to the same junction the lad are moving to as i turn off on it for home in 15min easy from leaving work. on a bad day you looking at 30min give or take.
new place looks the bees knees guys.
just to add im growing a mo for movember so if any of you want to donate to this fantastic fundraiser, please feel free http://ie.movember.com/mospace/285154
jeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaayyyysus! that’s huge! nice one lads. if ya need anything at all, help with the liftin’ haulin’ and draggin’ or anything else gimme a shout.
looks super and only 5mins from my place!
Good luck with it guys, I know it’ll go great!
Wow….now thats an impressive space!!! With two roller doors you really are spoiling us!!! Give us a shout if ya need any help!!! Best of luck with it guys you deserve it!!!
Paddy,
I have your magnesium up in the gym.
Today at 16:01 I passed by the Tallaght exit heading south (I was coming from the N7), by 16:12 I was at the front door to the new place to give you an indication of travel time. Traffic was busy enough but I was able to keep a speed of 90-100kmph.
Pat,
We haven’t worked out timetable changes yet. Prob stay the same til Christmas anyway.
Go for it!!
now all you have to do is break thru all the tqpe just to REACH the red tape..
*tape*, typing with a cast on sucks.
wow looks great and massive. best of luck lads.
I have no doubt that the new place will be a roaring success. The work ethic, dedication, commitment and enthusiasm CFI has shown their clients will, alone ensure success. Onwards and upwards I say!
Paddy,
I’ve some Fish Oil knocking around, be down at 5 tomorrow. I can leave it for you then.
Fantastic news guys – best of luck in the new box!

Lads and Lassies
anybody got some good links for buying lifting shoes online? Where’s the best place in terms of price delivery etc.
also it seems adidas are the brand of choice. Why is that exactly?
John i got my adidas shoes from sugar ray boxing shop for £105 incl delivery by dhl chose them because i could try on a pair of the lads shoes to check the size.

I’ve nothing much to say, just felt this day needed a 50th comment to round it out.
