Shamrock Athletics

Expérience fantastique: Gave the semi-private/small group classes a try here to escape my crowded gym. In the past 4 months I’ve noticed a great improvement in my strength and endurance. The structure of the workouts allow me to progress the weight I’m lifting week over week while also introducing new exercises that I wouldn’t have tried on my own. Really pleased with the progress I’ve made. Thanks Cormac and Dave!

Expérience fantastique: I love this gym! The small groups, full body strength and a blast of sprint intervals at the end is bringing my fitness to the next level! Thanks so much David and Cormac!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been training at Shamrock Athletics for over 3 months with Cormac and Dave. I had no previous experience in a gym and was made instantly feel comfortable. I started out with a free initial consultation and then proceeded with 2x sessions a week and over haven’t looked back. I’ve noticed a massive difference to my energy levels and fitness and have enjoyed every session with the two lads. Each session has felt well planned and tailored towards my needs, they explain what I’m doing, why I’m doing it and how it all relates to the end goal. I highly recommend this place.

Expérience fantastique: I joined this gym because my home workouts weren't giving me what I needed, and I wanted support and a fresh start. Cormac and Dave are amazing—they really know their stuff and keep me motivated. I'm already feeling stronger and healthier. Plus, they foster a great community vibe. Highly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: Hi praise and recommendation for Shamrock Athletics — the classes are great!! Right size for high energy in the room and love that every one is different. Really elevated my fitness in a short period of time while keeping my interest as they never get boring. I have a slight knee energy which the guys are always mindful of and customize the exercise as the deem appropriate for me, yet still keep me challenged. That level of detail and mindfulness provides the benefit of personal training in a class environment. Bonus of short intense cardio at the end of each session provides the lasting mental lift I need. All of this at a great price point earns Shamrock my 5 stars!! ❤️

Expérience fantastique: Have loved training with Dave at Shamrock! He's listened to our goals, put together training plans, helped us measure our progress (and recover after illness or travel), and more. Dave has been a great trainer and friend to us over the last half year of training at Shamrock -- he's helped me gain several lbs and put big numbers on my lifts. We've also enjoyed testing ourselves with the regular progress testing sessions that Shamrock runs. Big ups to Cormac and Dave for running such a top shop

Expérience fantastique: As an age group cyclist and lifelong athlete, I'm experienced with working out. However, I was just missing something being self directed. The professional level coaching that I am receiving from Cormac is helping me overcome the injuries that I have been struggling with, and get to the next level. Highly recommended.

Expérience fantastique: I started training with Cormac in January 2024. As a woman in my early 60s, I wanted to try to actively get fitter for a whole range of reasons, including fall prevention (in her 80s, my mother broke both her hips in separate incidents despite being active and at a healthy weight her entire life). Cormac carefully constructs workouts that suit my level and abilities. Each workout is challenging without being too difficult or frustrating. I find that his clear explanations, gentle encouragement and Irish sense of humour make the time I spend in the gym surprisingly enjoyable and, as a bonus, good for my mental health. The physical results are obvious to me, my family, and friends. The mental results are obvious to me and my partner. I am much stronger and my lower back pain is gone. My blood pressure and weight have dropped into healthier zones. I now realize how wobbly I really was (which was a real eye-opener!). It is remarkable how daily activities, that never seemed difficult or onerous, are now much easier. I have more confidence in my abilities and appearance. In short, this has been and will continue to be a wonderful success for me!

Expérience fantastique: Cormac, and the whole team at Shamrock athletics are absolutely an amazing team off trainers that go above and beyond to make you feel supported in your fitness journey. I really can’t say enough good things about them.Try them out you won’t regret it. The best in Vancouver!!

Expérience fantastique: Cormac runs a great workout. The small group classes are the perfect size and he has a high level of knowledge and care. ☘️!

Expérience fantastique: Really enjoy the friendly atmosphere. Im a gym newbie and felt welcomed right away. Cormac and Dave are both really good at pushing me out of my comfort zone in a know encouraging and motivating way.

Expérience fantastique: Think about it.. for the same amount of money you would spend on a class at a bigger gym to exercise along with 30+ others, you can work with one of Vancouver’s best trainers in a class with a maximum of 4 participants. Training with Cormac is the best thing I can do to handle the challenges age throws at me. His workouts are geared to increase your balance & strength and to get you to move with confidence. The gym is great, the workouts are fantastic, and Cormac is legend!

Expérience fantastique: Top notch.

Expérience fantastique: Great trainer, great lad, but most importantly he's from Cork!!

Expérience fantastique: I read somewhere once that to stay healthy you have to choose an activity you could do for the rest of your life – and coming to work out with friends at Shamrock in an environment where someone guides us in a way that challenges our bodies while being mindful of our injuries and aches is something I could do forever. The bloke that runs it is pretty ok too ;-)

Expérience fantastique: When I found Cormac, I was not only looking for weight loss, but for a complete change of lifestyle. Cormac thas a unique energy that cheers you up and make you feel motivated! His workouts trigger me the joy of being active again! Not only I'm improving my strength and resistance, but I'm now the best version of me! I'm even writing this review right after my evening workout. As Cormac says, "Keep moving"

Expérience fantastique: Cormac is one of those legends we all know by the one name. He is a competitor in athletics who walks, talks and has lived through the grind. This helps him meet each person where they are in the training and rehabilitation regime. I am absolutely confident sending all the clients who need guidance, structure and motivation in the right way. FYI you’ll have a hard time not making a new friend with him or the people around!!

Expérience fantastique: I can’t say enough good things about Cormack’s gym and personal training services! His workouts are not only effective but also enjoyable!! I always look forward to the next session. His knowledge and tailored corrections in my workouts have pushed me to limits I never thought I could reach. The best gym in town!

Expérience fantastique: If you’re looking for an excellent trainer in Vancouver look no further - It’s been wonderful and fun to work with Cormac! He has been so helpful and thoughtful in his ability to individualize exercise programs and modify routines on the spot. I always look forward to the sessions and appreciate his expertise, kindness and upbeat energy!

Expérience fantastique: Cormac is an amazing trainer. He is extremely knowledgeable and truly cares about his clients. One of the best out there!

Expérience fantastique: I have been training past few years with Cormac, going through health issues for the past year and my trainer has adjusted my plan to help me maintain and help me recoup, would recommend shamrock athletics to anyone

Expérience fantastique: I have been training with Cormac for the last 3 1/2 years and the experience has been great. He consistently challenges me, motivates me and gives me the confidence to try new things. I don't always look forward to training days but I am always glad when I do them and he makes the effort worthwhile. I have much greater confidence in my ability to lift and climb, run and move my body in ways that I had thought were no longer an option for me at 53. Highly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: Cormac is great! He’s punctual, knowledgeable, respectful, and a hard-working individual.
