Get fitter, stronger, healthier, happier.
I'm Charlie Johns, a fully qualified personal trainer in Cork. I help everyday people, parents, desk workers, and anyone who's been meaning to start for years, get stronger, fitter, and build habits that actually last.
Let's have a chat.
Every new client gets a free 60-minute personal training session and consultation, both in the same hour. No pressure, no sales pitch. Pick a location to see this week's times.

2,500+ hours. 100+ clients. One simple goal.
I started training at 13 to deal with my own weight. I was always the biggest kid in class, and I got bullied for it. The gym became the place where that changed. Not overnight, but session by session.
I've built a career out of helping other people do the same. Fully qualified, 2,500+ hours of coaching behind me, 100+ clients. I moved from Australia to Cork to put down roots, and I now coach out of two gyms: Phenom Gym in Ballintemple and Resolution Fitness in Douglas.

This is who I train.
I'm not here to coach professional athletes or competitive lifters. I'm here for "normal" people who want to feel better in their own skin.
The parent who used to be fit before kids, and wants to be able to run around with them instead of watching from the sidelines.
The desk worker who's spent a decade behind a screen and is ready, finally, to do something about it.
The person who's never really been into fitness but has wanted to make the change for a long time and just needs the right person to start with.
If any of those sound like you, the best place to start is a free consultation. We'll figure out the right plan together.
