Bodybuilding Lifestyles – Alan Byrne

We wish to present you with our new chapter- Bodybuilding lifestyles from Paul Byrne’s Westgate Fitness.
Our today’s member is Mr Alan Byrne from Drogheda who is currently training at our gym.
Alan has beeen training at Paul Byrne’s Westgate Fitness for the last three years. Alan initially wanted to put on weight and that is how he became interested in bodybuilding. Alan says that there is currently around 15 bodybuilders training at our club and that makes everything much easier from the point of being competetive and supportive.
You could always stop by and ask a question about diet, training and supplementation. Alan firstly competed in RIBBF Nationals in 2008 and his training mentor was Paul Byrne, who for several years competed himself, and has since gone on to train many men and women. Alan came 2-nd in his first competition and it was called the firts timers category. Since that time Alan Byrne has successfully competed in the RIBBF Nationals 2009 (novices) and came 4-th. He found this competition at a very high standard and with many great contestants.

Alan’s favourite bodybuilder is Mr Flex Lewis and this is the way Alan sees himself in the future.
Alan when asked about our gym says it is the best in town for the equipment, staff, members and atmosphere. He says that our club attracts many bodybuilders and has much more to offer than other gyms in town.

We all wish Alan a bright future and of course always first places in his bodybuilding competitions.

See our free membership Christmas Draw Winner

As every year Paul’s Byrne Westgate Fitness offers a chance to win 3 months free membership to our fantastic premises. This year the happy winner is Ms Donna Kierans (below) from Drogheda. Donna has beeen training for around three years and her main passion lies with toning and losing weight.
Donna when asked what is it about our club that stands out from others is : great classes, great instructors and especially General Cycling Instructor Ged Halpin, great atmosphere, great members and fantastic facilities.
Donna thinks that there should be more people from Drogheda training on regular basis as training is a healthy way of living and changes the way you think. One thing worth mentioning is another driving factor for Donna, her partner who is a current body builder. His training regime is amazing and he belongs to our most regular members. You can see his interview in our new chapter about body builders from Paul Byrne’s Westgate Fitness.

Here you can see Donna’s pictures presented with 3 months free membership and a supplement pack from Olimp Sport Nutrition offered to everyone these days who join Paul Byrne’s Westgate Fitness.
