I do have to say that one of the great things about being a personal trainer is that you get used to getting up early. On Sunday mornings when most are still a sleep my alarm rings at 4:45 am. Yes you read it correctly 4:45, I am on the rode by 5:30 and it […]
Taking time to do the “extra” is usually not one of the priorities with regards to our training regime but it is one of the most important! What is the “extra”? It’s taking and making time to take care of our bodies, stretching protocol, foam rolling, massage, physio and sleep are all examples of the “extra”! […]
On a beautiful Sunday afternoon, some coworkers and I went down to Jericho to try out paddle boarding. I had never done it before, but the other three had and it was quite evident! The waves were a bit choppy but we spent about 2hrs out on the water and had a fabulous time. It […]
Last weekend, Krista and I (as well as her fiance and two friends) drove out to North Vancouver to do the Grouse Grind. I had only done it twice before and never timed myself so this trip was all about setting a baseline time for completion! Krista’s goal for the trip was a bit different: […]
Here is a picture of my stats from my Porteau Cove ride this weekend. The biggest thing that I can say, as you start to do longer summer rides, is to make sure your nutrition is in check! Bonked on the way home and it seriously affected my average speed. Electrolytes in the water and […]
The weather has changed and I’ve been back on my bike in Squamish for my second ride of the year! The dry trails were great and I had no problems on some of the more technical spots. Thankfully there were no wipe outs to test the repaired shoulder but all felt great! Now if only […]
On Saturday April 13th, we had a Rep1 team meeting. The purpose was to bring everyone together and to discuss Rep1’s Vision and Core Values. Prepping for, and speaking about our vision took me back to 2008-09 when Scott, Chad, and I were having a lot of secret meetings to discuss what we wanted in […]
Are you a true Rep1 spin loyalist? If so, you will have noticed the new spin posters we put up this week! We are all around the city with our colors!! Thank you to the Poster Guy for helping us get our name out there.
Do you need motivation to get yourself to the gym or to continue your workout when fatigue starts to set in? A new study was recently released describing the best motivational music and it all has to do with the number of beats per minute in the song! Apparently a song with 125-140 beats per […]
So, went riding with Chad Friday. Had a great time but realized that after 6 months of no mountain biking the legs didn’t feel to bad going up hill, funny, I guess the training and spinning does work! The test run was successful and my shoulder felt great, I’m ready for something more serious. […]
