The Unit

Fantastic experience: Joining this gym has transformed my life—physically and mentally. The supportive community motivates me daily, while the challenging workouts have boosted my confidence, energy, and overall well-being. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: After sustaining an injury (and a subsequent period of inactivity), I was recommended by a friend to try The Unit. The coaches tailor workouts to the fitness level of the individual, and importantly cater to any limitations a person might have (whether that be an injury or something else). I have now successfully rehabbed my injury, and continue to work on my strength and mobility through the SGPT sessions offered through the week. I also really enjoy the boxing classes, and would encourage people to give this a go (even if you have no experience in this area, the high level of coaching means you won't be long progressing). I can't fault anything about The Unit, and would encourage anyone thats on the fence about joining to speak to one of the coaches - it has been a game changer for me!

Fantastic experience: If you want a gym that helps you get the best work out, results and craic then this is the gym for you.

Fantastic experience: Changed my life and made exercise a real staple. Great support from the coaches and a close knit group. Accountability with a real focus on support as a network. If I hadn't of moved from Belfast I'd be there permanently.

Fantastic experience: No better place in Belfast to improve your physical and mental health! I had never trained in a gym until I joined in July 2023 and the hardest part has been walking in the door on the first day. However as soon as I walked in I was made to feel so welcome and settled into the sessions right away. The biggest improvement I’ve found is a huge improvement in fatigue. I found after a day of work I was tired and lethargic but after only a couple of sessions a week it has left me feeling more energised and improved my moods. When in the gym the only thing that makes it feel like a gym is the training and exercising the rest is purely having a great laugh, letting off some steam and enjoying yourself. The gym is more of a community of like minded people who want to better themselves and each other. Everything from the personalised cards at Christmas to the range of events organised and the recognition given to each member over the past 5 months has blown me away. I couldn’t thank Sam, Donard and Mark enough for keeping me fit, accountable and having a healthier outlook on life.

Fantastic experience: I honestly can't speak highly enough about this place. The Unit isn't the type of place where you'll find people gloating about how good they are, or how heavy they can lift. You won't find many mirrors with people posing during their sessions. But what you will find, is an amazing group of coaches and people who are there to help you in any way they can. They understand that everyone has to start somewhere and there's no judgement or unrealistic expectations. When I started back training for the first time in a few years, I was absolutely dreading it. That fear of walking into back into a gym not really knowing anyone or what to expect. That's all put to bed from day 1. There's something for everyone and they find a plan that suits you. But what tops it all off is the general atmosphere of the whole place. It's not just a gym, but a social hub and a real community where everyone looks out for each other. It's no longer a chore getting up and getting to the gym, I really enjoy it for the first time in my life which is a testament to Mark, Sam and Donard and what they have created. If you're considering joining a gym, this is the one for you. Don't think it, do it. Up The Unit.

Fantastic experience: I started at the beginning of last year thinking I would hate it. How wrong was I. It has been the best decision. I have lost 11kg and have become fitter and stronger. The Unit is a welcoming space for anyone young and old. I would recommend anyone afraid to join a gym to try The Unit. You won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: Best training gym in the west! Great team culture and proven track record for getting results - couldn’t recommend this these coaches anymore if your serious about fitness.

Fantastic experience: Been training in The Unit for almost 6 years. Cant recommend the gym enough. Changed my life and mindset for the better and couldnt imagine not training there. Great coaches and great craic

Fantastic experience: Great community feel to the gym! I was worried about it being one of those gyms that have mirrors everywhere for people to watch themselves in but this isn’t it! 1-1 coaching by great people who care about your needs and ability level, extra activities offered like couch to 5k, boxing & fun runs. Great Gym, 5 out of 5!

Fantastic experience: Class facility, even better atmosphere and would recommend to anyone! All coaches are top notch also :)

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend this gym enough. Great variety of options offered to suit your needs and brilliant atmosphere. Staff are very knowledgeable and always happy to help.

Fantastic experience: The best gym with the team of trainers and the nice people who goes to it

Fantastic experience: The Unit is honestly the best Gym. You go in feeling nervous and after 5 mins you feel right at home everybody is soo nice and arent afraid to tell you where they struggle and give you tips on things they can do to help. I honestly love the place. As PTs go you couldnt ask for better coaches in the gym and boxing! They are amazing, they check in with you all the time help you where your struggling and cheer you on where your sailing through! The Unit and the people are the G.O.A.T. If your not with the Unit then your not doing it right!

Fantastic experience: Phenomenal Gym!!!! If I could rate it higher, I would. I have trained in many gyms and tried many plans to get in any sort of shape and this has been the best gym without doubt!! I joined The Unit via a recommendation and have been here 3 years now. They have genuinely helped change my life. All the coaches are fantastic and work really closely with everyone, they genuinely care and want to see you succeed. The gym facilities are great and always kept clean, the atmosphere in the gym is incredible, always great fun and has a really sense of community and comradery with everyone being so supportive and helpful. There's Challenges and Gym events that are always top tier and have yielded incredible results in so many people. I have, would, and will recommend this gym to anyone. Call in and speak to the coaches, you won't regret it!!

Fantastic experience: I joined The Unit during their 6 week summer shred programme after an encouraging push from a close friend. I joined as I was going through a tough time and i really needed the headspace, I hadn't taken part in any form of exercise in 15 years prior to joining, I even turned up to the induction in a pair of jeans not knowing that it was actually a work out of the day , that didn't stop coach Mark from getting me to take part anyway lol. I didn't really know what to expect as this was all new to me, but needless to say with the help of all the amazing coaches, my partner, encouraging friends and the 6am crew, I was able to stick to it and lose a staggering 3 and a half stone, my body shape changed and as a result I'm down 8 bags of clothes aswell lol. I really appreciate what the team have done for me and what they are continuing to do for others. If your thinking about it don't hesitate, remember "nothing changes, if nothing changes".
