BodyByG

I joined Body By G in January 2019, 16 months before my wedding day. My main goal was to get fit and feel comfortable with my body. I hated having pictures taken but its something you cant avoid on your wedding day!

Slow and steady was part of my plan but after my six week challenge I was shocked at how much my fitness level and body had changed. My unhealthy relationship with food had done a 360 thanks to the amazing support from Tan. I finally understood how food fuels the body and the importance of protein in conjunction with training. I actually looked forward to the next class and torture the trainers would have planned for us ???? .

My biggest challenge since joining Body By G was believing in myself. But Vanessa, Fiona and Sinead quickly helped me overcome this and made me realise what I was capable of.

Then Alan joined the gym as part of a bring a friend challenge and the gym bug hit him hard. We both would have been slow to book a weights class, those racks just seemed so intimidating. But we were so wrong, one Friday evening weights session with Gary and we were hooked. It was in those weights classes where both our progression really took off. Being able to get my personal best of 60kg on back squats was one of my proudest gym moments. All those weeks of hard work had paid off.

It's not your average gym, it's a community. Everyone is so supportive, friendly and it's great craic.. So my advice to anyone starting out their fitness journey would be, don't overthink it and take ?before? pictures. Body By G will show you the rest and support you every step of the way. You?ll never regret it (until you need to walk up the stairs ????)
