How to get in shape for Summer

Well, well, well…look who’s come crawling back!?!

Year in year out, we see people flood in the doors when the spring sunshine starts to show its gorgeous face!

This year more than ever, we are seeing folks running along the promenade, joining bootcamps, power walking or even running around with their children in the evenings.

People seem to becoming more aware of their health in general but we still feel that we get a much larger influx of new clients looking to look their best when it’s time to start wearing…well…less!

That’s where we step in to help…

Personal Training for a more Personal approach

There’s a reason why most celebrities opt for personal trainers when they are making a change to improve their fitness, health and appearance.

 Personal Trainers in Dublin

Working with a personal trainer is the quickest, easiest and most successful to reach your health and fitness goals and has proved so effective that personal training has now spread beyond the rich and famous. Today, people from all walks of life are opting to finance their health in place of eating out, drinking or buying expensive clothes or things they simply don’t need.

Alan, 23, Howth, explains why he started training in The Edge: Clontarf:

“I’ve always been in pretty good shape, or so I thought, but after a few years in college I began to feel lazy, tired and unfit very quickly- I contacted the guys in The Edge and haven’t looked back since. I have changed my eating habits and they have become part of my daily routine. It’s just a different way of life and it’s worth every penny”

Benefits of working with a Personal Trainer:

You will improve your overall fitness levels and can have your programs fine-tuned as you go along to avoid boredom or the dreaded plateau effect!

You will reach or maintain a healthy body fat % and weight. Whether your goals are about body shaping, weight loss or toning, with a qualified personal trainer you will have all of the encouragement you need!

“My whole way of looking at things has changed…I am like a new woman- I had a baby two years ago and felt frumpy, overweight and just lacked my old ‘buzz’. The lads encouraged me each and every step of the way and I am DELIGHTED with my results- well, my progress…I am still on the path but I am enjoying the journey haha!”
