A coach in every class
There is a qualified coach on the floor in every single session. Not an app or a screen or a sheet taped to the wall. A person who corrects, encourages and adapts on the spot.
About us
Built by Dungannon, for Dungannon.
G45 is a community interest company, which is a formal way of saying this gym exists for its members and its town, not for shareholders.
01How we started
It started with a simple frustration.
Gerard grew up around here and spent years watching the same thing happen: people join a big commercial gym in January, wander between machines with nobody to talk to, feel like an outsider, and quietly give up by March. Not because they were lazy. Because nobody coached them, and nobody noticed when they stopped coming.
So in 2021, Gerard and Amy opened G45 in a big shed on Ballynakilly Road with the opposite idea. Every single session coached, by a team who know your name, your knee, and what you lifted last Tuesday. And a rule that has never been broken since: nobody trains alone here.
Five years on, more than two hundred locals have come through the 6 Week Programme, the timetable runs seven days a week, and the room is full of people who once swore they were not gym people.
Machines don’t change people. People do. Our job is to build the room where that happens, and to keep it warm.
02What we stand for
Three things we’ll always stick to.
Every level is welcome
From first-timers to Hyrox racers, everyone works off their own numbers. Scaled doesn’t mean easier or lesser, it means it’s yours.
The community comes first
We are a community interest company. Mums bring prams, members bring craic, and the Saturday Team WOD ends in coffee more often than not.
03The team
The faces you’ll see on the floor.
Coaches who train in the room they coach in, and know exactly how heavy that last set felt.
- GGerard · Founder & Head Coach
Started G45 to build the gym Dungannon deserved. Programmes the training, coaches most mornings, and still answers every enquiry himself.
- AAmy · Co-founder & Coach
Looks after the room, the standards and the welcome. The reason first-timers leave their first session already looking forward to the second. Leads G45 Mums.
- +The coaching team
A small crew of qualified coaches who keep every class capped, safe and properly coached, from the 6am S&C to the Sunday Hyrox.
