I am now training clients in person and studios in Oakville, Burlington, and Hamilton. I moved and am no longer training in Toronto – Almost 20 years ago I named my company “Personal Trainer in Toronto” since I thought it was going to be my forever home. But life happens. Some of my best times have been training my Toronto clients (certain ones became like close friends/family – you know who you are and are appreciated). I have taken a long break from social media due to some major traumas over the past couple years. However, I will be sharing some workouts and nutrition and lifestyle tips over the next bit.

This session was with an inspirational trainer Mike Shepherd (he has lost 100lbs in the past and has worked hard to live positively with grace after enduring significant personal trauma) . We have combined our knowledge and experience to offer the highest quality personal training services. We are both results and detail-oriented trainers. The physical part of training is only part of both our wellness plans. Other pieces of this puzzle include: nutrition, lifestyle factors (sleep and stress relief coping methods), socialization, coaching, community work (living with a greater sense of purpose), meditation, and several other modalities.
The focus of this strength training session was abs, obliques, and lower back. Some of the exercises included TRX side planks, TRX pike pushups, stability ball roll-outs, reverse hyperextensions, stability ball perturbations, and hanging leg raises. These exercises target all the core muscles – re**us abdominus, transverse abdominus, obliques, quadrates lumborum, and spinal erectors.
