A GUIDE TO THE BEST GYMS IN LONGFORD

Gyms all over the country have had a particularly tough go of things this year but so many are still offering fitness classes online and there are loads of ways you can still support your local fitness spot! 

Checkout some of the top gyms, studios and classes on offer in County Longford and stay active + connected through lockdown and beyond!

Longford Fitness

Located in the N4 Axis Centre, Longford Fitness offers unlimited weekly classes for only €25, plus tailored online classes, yoga sessions and group zoom classes throughout lockdown. If you’re looking for the perfect Christmas gift for the fitness fanatic in your life, you can also purchase a Longford Fitness Voucher on their website for use online or in-person when they reopen!

Fitness Factory Longford

With a big focus on strength + conditioning, Fitness Factory Longford in the Townspark Industrial Estate is an awesome spot for both S+C training as well as group classes. Don’t let a little lockdown break your stride - these guys have remained active with in-house competitions and team workouts that will get the blood pumping and the camaraderie levels up way past a ten!

Aontacht Yoga

2020 in particular has called for a more centred and holistic approach to wellbeing, and what better way to head off on that journey than through yoga, mindfulness and meditation? Led by Shea, Aontacht is “one young man’s attempt to encourage and promote unity, both of self and community.” Weekly schedules for classes can be found online!

With resources including a gym, pool (home to Olympic hopeful, Darragh Greene!), class schedule, sports pitch and hall, Longford Sports + Leisure Centre (Coral Leisure) is a one stop shop for all your fitness needs. WHile the centre remains closed as part of Ireland’s latest level 5 lockdown, you can still head online to check out all the awesomeness on offer, and get yourself in the right headspace for when they reopen!

Exstasy Gym

Priding itself on being “an old school gym with no gimmicks or fuss, just real working out” Exstasy Gym is an awesome option if a no-frills work out is what you came for. With a massive focus on motivation and determination, head here (as soon as lockdown allows!) and get that body into a welcoming, motivating training ground!

Horsepower Gym

With early morning sessions beginning at 7am, Horsepower Gym in the Mastertech Business Park is here for the committed and ready-to-rumble crowd. Offering a variety of facilities and classes (including CrossFit for the fanatics!), make sure you take a look at these guys as soon as their training doors swing open again!

The Iron Kingdom Gym

The Iron Kingdom Gym on Athlone Road in Longford, wants you to be the best you can be. There’s a focus here on competing against yourself, not anyone else and approaching fitness as a way to get in shape, but more so, to live a healthy, active lifestyle. Lift with the best in the biz in Co. Longford!
