My Own Health & Fitness Experiences
Hi, I am Noel, Director and founder of ABC Gym. I was and have been a Lifelong sports and exercise enthusiast but I felt I never achieved my potential due to a long term back injury. This back pain made me angry and frustrated and out of pocket spending money on physios, doctors and chiropractors.
After graduating as a Secondary School Teacher I went and studied Strength & Conditioning with Setanta College to learn all about rehab, prehab, athletic development and basically how to train people the right way without hurting people.
This was the foundation of my training philosophy which has directly brought hundreds of people to their goals through guided and personalised training and nutrition.
Losing a Parent & Lessons Learned
My Dad died in 2012 of Lung Cancer having never smoked. He had played Gaelic Football until his late 30’s / early 40’s and once he retired he never had a sport or a pastime of his own – all his time was spent working and then coaching my team and helping out with my sister’s team and giving time to the GAA club.
Had he unearthed his inner athlete once again in 50’s he may not have thought his breathlessness was just due to being unfit and gaining weight and instead realised there was something wrong and done something about it sooner.
This was my inspiration to help others…
Being healthy and active is not only a great way to avoid illness, but it also makes it easier to spot when an illness is setting in. There are too many benefits to name when it comes to being active, being strong, being injury free and having better nutrition.
I genuinely couldn’t recommend ABC gym highly enough for anybody feeling disheartened with the usual gym ‘programs’, not seeing progress, are feeling they need to gain back control of their health (both mental and physical) or who have health issues that set them back- especially strange and unusual ones!

A lot of people out there are intimidated by gyms, me being one. ABC has such a different feel around the place, great people, great craic, hard work and great atmosphere. The trainers are top class, always pushing you whatever goal you may have set. I’m nearly 2 years with ABC and I’m only sorry I hadn’t joined a lot sooner.

So what’s changed since joining ABC? Everything! I do not obsess over the number on the scales, I understand my diet so much more, I don’t feel guilty if I eat a slice of cheese or enjoy an ice cream in the park with my little boy. I remember reading and watching about this gym that was opening and going home to my hubby and saying that I want to give it a go, cos I think I’ve finally found a gym where they know what they’re talking about and a found a gym that’s gonna work and it did!
Emer O’Farrell
For anyone thinking of joining ABC I would encourage you to go for it. I have struggled with my weight most of my life, I did diets every now and again, walked, tried gyms etc. but never kept the weight off. In my first 12 weeks in ABC, I felt a lot better, I haven’t had any back problems and I lost 9.5kg in weight, 2 years later I am a different person completely.
