Bodybyrne Fitness

BodyByrne is a private, by-appointment personal training studio on the 2nd floor of Powerscourt Townhouse, just off Grafton Street in Dublin 2. Billed as a pioneer of personal training in Ireland, it has trained clients exclusively since 1995 and opened its city-centre private PT gym in 2004.

The 4,000 sq ft space is fitted with Technogym equipment, and no more than six clients are on the floor at once, so there are no queues. Every client starts with a 60-minute initial consultation that includes an InBody full body composition scan, a goals discussion and a personalised plan, with body stats tracked every 4-6 weeks.

Nutrition is central, with food consultations and food intolerance testing led by director Siobhan Byrne, and the studio also offers corporate wellness programmes, a fitness holiday and gift vouchers. Open weekdays 7am-6pm.
