I joined Evo because I was so bored with the usual effort of going to the gym to do endless cardio,…read morewhere to be honest is sometimes an intimidating place for me. It wasnt really working, I was doing too much cardio and not enough weights so i was just staying the same shape and not really getting lean and toned. Plus it was soooooo boring!!!! SO with that I joined Evo fitness. The results really speak for themselves, I even cheated a fair bit on the diet and still lost weight (mainly around the tummy area) but what I was super happy with was the muscle I had gained. For once my dweeby little arms were finally getting some sort of shape, my legs looked great and my arse fit perfectly into my jeans. Some parts of the diet are hard but to be honest you need to be dedicated if you want to change, and if you dedicate to this YOU WILL! The team are AMAZING. Not only do they teach you, they make working out a really good laugh plus its only 20 mins each time. Who cant commit to that everyday? HIGHLY recommend everyone and anyone to give this a try! You wont regret it

There are a few studio rooms which are free to use outside class hours which are usually on just in the mornings and after 6pm in the evenings. I've used the pool on a number of occassions which is clean and well maintained. Although there is kids lessons running for most of the afternoon until late evening, there is always one labe open for free adult swimming. There is also a jacuzzi and a sauna, and the changing rooms are pretty big. In the ladies, they have an adult only section as well, which is great. The only thing is that the showers are not great. The staff are very friendly, there are a variety of classess offered as well as a complimentary training plan, and from a facilities point of view this gym is probably the best in Drogheda. The one day guest pass is only €10 and gives you access to the pool, gym and all the classes for that day. I went in the late afternoons so it was not crowded at all, but I would say it gets more busy later in the evenings after 5 or 6pm.

The "movement" ethos…read morepermeates everything we do there and I'm already starting to feel big improvements in my back and shoulders after years of struggling with pain and discomfort from an old whiplash injury. The classes are fun, diverse and challenging. You can focus on strength, stretch, balance, mobility or some mix of all of those depending on your needs and your interests. There's a great atmosphere in the classes and it isn't a struggle to get myself to go to classes at all. In fact i hate missing them and can notice the difference in my body if it's been a few days since I've been. I've only been going a couple of months but it's already obvious that Andy knows his stuff and is really keen to make sure that the programme is tailored to each persons needs. If you've done the monotonous soulless gyms and are ready to try something different and excited then I'd highly recommend AM Fitness.

I had lived down the road from this place for years, but had never been before. My niece and nephew…read morewere up for the country for the weekend, so decided this would be a good place to check out. I had a peak into the competition pool area and it is an impressive facility. However, the kids were here for the Aquazone. I was pleasantly surprised by the Aquazone, it wouldn't compare to water parks on the continent, but my Irish standards it does pretty well. The changing rooms and pool areas are all very clean. The changing area is communal with lots of cubicals, so makes it easier when you have kids with you. The main attractions for younger kids are a wave pool, lazy river and a pirate ship with a few small slides. Then for the slightly bigger and braver kids there are three flumes and a "flow rider" (a large stream of water you can surf or bodyboard on, great fun). The three flumes are very good, each one it quite different, so nice bit of variety. My niece loved the flumes, running up to me after going on the Dark Hole flume "that was TERRIFYING........... I'm going again!", I thought the entrance fee was about right; Adult €14, child €12 (3 & under free) and family €46 (2 adult & 2 child). You can stay as long as you want, but the ticket is single entry. It is much cheaper at off-peak times, however, a lot of the attraction will not be operating.

The National Aquatic Centre contains the only public 50-meter swimming pool in Dublin, and is only…read moreone of three 50-meter pools in the country (at the time of writing the only others are the University of Limerick and Westwood Clontarf, which is members-only... UCD is still in production). It was initially opened in 2003 but closed after only 18 months to have the roof fixed, which was completed in 2005. The main pool comes with a moveable floor so they can shorten the pool to a 25-meter pool with a two separate pools, one for diving. The complex also includes a kids' pool (Aquazone Waterpark) with slides and an on-site gym and cafe. There is room for about 2,500 spectators as well in an impressive viewing gallery. If I was to describe the quality of the pool when extended to the full 50-meters and when it's not too busy? Abso-feckin-unbelievable (that's a word... right?!). If you've never swum in a 50-meter pool you should do it immediately! I unfortunately live a fair bit away so only get to the pool once every few months and for a pool-based triathlon each year (Fingal Sprint, held in May), but it's well worth the trip and I've never been disappointed! I would STRONGLY recommend however to phone the centre before you go, because a LOT of clubs and competitions use this pool and also it's not always extended to the full 50-meters; try and go at off-peak times with the full distance available, and you're bound to come out smiling!
