Playground Workout

Spring is around the corner and it’s wishful thinking that I can train outside soon. You can still see snow in the backyards of this video, but if I wait for better weather, I’ll be waiting a long time around my neck of the woods. I know that lots of you would have occasion to […]

Challenging Yourself to Finish Strong

I’ve introduced you to my friend Mike Whitfield on the blog before. He’s one of the coolest dudes around. He has a great sense of humor and a whole lotta smarts. Especially when it comes to effective fat loss. Mike has come from a place where I’ve never been. He’s actually lost over 100 lbs. […]

Who doesn’t want a defined and toned mid section?   Of course we all want the elusive six pack abs, or at the very least a toned tummy.   Sadly, you may have fallen prey to ridiculous ab contraptions that promise to burn off the flub and give you toned abs in less than 5 […]

Restaurant Workout Scene

Decline push ups, dips, Bulgarian splits squats, inverted rows, squat jumps: not typical airport restaurant fare.   Except for this one day that my awesome business partner, Krista Kokot and I decided we should serve it up at a Vancover airport Bistro.   We were on our way to a fitness conference and had a […]

Fitness on the Road

Posted by on March 20, 2012 at 8:38 am

Life on the road…well, I make it sound as if I’m some kind of wander lust traveler. As it turned out, I was traveling only about 10 days, which is plenty for me. (Seems like longer out of my every day routine.) I went to a couple of conferences in sunny California. I actually had […]

Have I ever introduced you to my biz partner Krista Kokot? She and I share one of my Fit Body Boot Camp locations in our hometown of Calgary, AB. She’s a super cool person and I’m lucky to be sharing a biz with my BFF. What’s cool about Krista is that she used to be […]

Do You Dare? Airport Workout

Posted by on March 4, 2012 at 4:20 am

If you find yourself in need of a workout, this travel workout will do the trick. And if you’re afraid of what others think of you doing your ‘thang’ out in public, well, just get over yourself. Most people will probably think you’re pretty cool for having the motivation to move where others just sit. […]

Another Hotel Workout

Posted by on February 26, 2012 at 4:11 am

Looking for a quick workout that you can do at home or while traveling?   I decided to train in my room while traveling recently because when I went to the fitness center I found three treadmills and a recumbent bike – nothing that interests me. I always wonder who’s job it is to equip […]

Whether you’re traveling or stuck at home, there’s always a time when you need a body weight workout that you can knock out so you can get on with your day.   I was at a conference with fitness pros recently and wanted to get in a quick workout. I didn’t know what the day […]
