Eddie has been great since I joined a couple of months ago. I’ve always been scared of the gym as I’m not the most outgoing person in the world and he has made getting into a routine so easy. Obviously his knowledge has also helped me tremendously and attention to my needs is the main reason I was happy to keep my membership going. Everyone else in the gym are bang on and very welcoming. Genuinely delighted I joined, thanks all.

Fitness & Babies at Wicklow Strength and Fitness is an incredible outlet for new mums! Vicki is a wealth of knowledge about postpartum fitness and I feel so confident working out under her guidance that I’m building my strength back in a safe and paced way. Vicki is also amazing with the babas which is a huge help during the class. I’m so happy to be part of the class & love that I can bring my little girl along.

I got a request for review for today's class programmed and organised by Liam O'Toole, however Liam is not listed in the drop down menu, so I've selected Eddie, because you know who wouldn't pick Eddie. Today's notification arrived just as I was mid 100 pullups, to be split between a team of three, so naturally I was doing 50 of them. (shout out to my teammates Shauna & April) As you can understand that 50 pullups can be taxing on the body, nevermind my state of mind, I chose not to stop doing the pullups to submit a hot take review of today's class, but I chose to let the dust settle, before considering my review of today's class / team workout. I suppose you can't have a workout with first there being a workout programmed, and let's say this waa a doozey, it have everything a growing boy needed, it had your cardio, brought to you in the form or stationary rowing and again in the form of stationary bicycling that creates a powerful wind of fitness. You had the explosive use of weights in the form of shoulder to overhead dual dumbells push / jerk presses. Which were a dealers choice of mass to choose from. I chose the slightly anventerous weight of 20 gravity defying kilogrammes, for each dumbell. These were challenging at best when approaching the culmination of my third set of 15 repetitions. We had wall-balls which didn't involve a wall and kettle bell swings that didn't involve kettles, or bells, come to think of it, is that why dumbbells are called dumb, as they don't make a bell noise 🤔. Anyway I digress. The workout was bisected by a considerable amount of pullups which as I mentioned earlier did tax the body and soul (nonexistent soul notwithstanding) before we were brought to the piece de resistance, the burpee box jumps, the PTSD rendering movement that makes grown men cry, and women swoon. I was subj

I always come out of the class learning a new CrossFit skill move even if it’s just a simple thing to a movement that you’re learning it all adds up.
