With summer upon us, the only thing more important than being able to scale a mountain is looking like you can!

Strengths and Weaknesses.Why do you come to the gym? Is it to show off how many pushups, pull-ups, and heavy squats you can do? Do you need more flexibility, mobility, agility?  Or wait, you want to lose some weight!, or put some on?  Hopefully your answer is yes to it all!  It feels good to…

Life as we know it has changed and exercising from home is becoming more and more common.  A major challenge for those working out from home is lacking adequate weights – many of us live in small spaces and do not have room for equipment, cannot afford weights, or the weights/equipment is backordered from increased…

Stamina workouts, especially those longer than 20-30 minutes, can be mentally fatiguing and hard for athletes to stay committed to. In AMRAP cycles, coaches can encourage athletes to complete each round of exercises in the same amount of time to stay at a steady, consistent pace, but this can result in conservative work efforts that…

This week I am going to make a plot twist and turn this into this week’s “Warm Up of the Week”.  Recently, I have adopted a simple warm-up to do before I go out skiing. As we know skiing is not a kind sport to your body… The nature of the sport has a tendency…

I believe strength training during pregnancy is very important. It definitely helped my recovery and labor and helped me prevent injury while pregnant. So many women stray away from resistance/strength training while pregnant but what they don’t know is there are a million exercises that will help keep you toned, prevent the chance of injury…
