As more people have begun to understand the benefits of staying active and fit, physical training and coaching are in huge demand. However, once they start their gym membership, it’s not long before they start making their way back to their sedentary habits. This usually happens when they lose motivation, feel intimidated, or become distracted. If you been through this and have struggled to stay on track with your fitness training at the gym, you are not alone.

Is working out and staying fit during pregnancy one of your goals. The key on being able to do exercises during your pregnancy, is to prepare for it!

Start off by going for a check-up and discussing the importance of a safe and healthy pregnancy. The doctor can verify if there are any risks or recommendations such as diet healthy eating plan based on your circumstances, trimming some unhealthy habits such as smoking, drinking alcohol, and lowering caffeine quantities and give you recommendations such as taking prenatal vitamins that contain Folic Acid in them. If you are just coming off a birth control pill they may also recommend Vitamin B and Zinc which tend to be depleted more from being on a birth control and waiting 3 months for your hormones to regulate. See your local doctor for specifics on your body!

Have you found yourself less and less accountable as you get older?  It's time to take back control of your body and your life! Fitness Niche has a solution for you! We match up a great fit for your requirements and goals into a workout system that is personalized and best suited to you and your busy lifestyle to get the results!

 

Why do I do what I do?

As a personal trainer I have worked in large gyms! I often felt I was limited in the capacity I was able to help them! Just based on the pay structure!

I decided to break down the barriers I seen my clients were struggling with to be able to offer specialized services that meet their needs. Meeting them where they are at! For me, understanding a client's mindset and perspective on where they are at, where they want to go, and their commitment level, and accountability level, and experience in exercise, working out, previous coaching experiences, and current nutrition habits has allowed me to truly understand where the client is at!

Like a GPS, if you don't know where you are at, the same directions can't be used for every person!  Truly understanding where my client is at on a physical and mental state can help me navigate their workouts and give them directions to allow them to arrive at their destination in achieving their goals.

 

The first step of Fitness Niche is to book a consultation with you. An opportunity to chat and get to know each other and make sure it's the right fit! Upon learning your goals, your weaknesses, your strengths, and experiences I can recommend an action plan based on my knowledge and expertise of 12+ years in the Fitness Industry.

1) In-home workouts - if applicable (Currently serving Vancouver + Greater Vancouver) 

2) Online personalized workout programming - delivered to your smart phone with videos, timers, and integration of one-on-one messaging for workout feedback.

What 3 Reasons Do We Give Ourselves For Not Working Out?

1.  Excuse Makes - "I don't have time"

This is interesting "verbage"  that comes out of many people's mouth. I remember times in my life that this was a very easy way to get out of doing something that I didn't want to do! Did you catch that? Something that I didn't want to do!

The fact is EVERYONE has the same 24 hours a day to live their lives. No one gets 26 Hours a day or only 18! But the way we spend our time tends to sometime unravel like a roll of toilet paper. You had so many great intentions of completing something, but then you look and the roll is empty and you are scrambling doing the pants around your ankles shuffle in life. 

I would beg to ask you the question? Can you truly and honestly state where you know how you are spending every minute of the day? If you cannot show me your calendar because you do not have one or you cannot remember what you actually did today. My solution to you is to grab a note book and start tracking how much time you spend in each activity!  Be honest with yourself?  How much time did you spend scrolling or swiping on Pinterest of Instagram?

After a week of tracking your activities, can you see where you are "wasting time" and look at eliminating those gaps? I am proud to say as a Personal Trainer and Coach, I provide my clients with the tools and support to be able to start accomplishing their goals and creating tangible results by catering their workouts to their lifestyles. As a coach if you tell me you are usually out at the lake on the weekends and away from a home gym or fitness center, I will program your workouts to match your setting and environment and resources you have available to you.

Even after you have evaluated where your time is being spent and you start illuminating those gaps of time where you were partaking in "time wasters,"  the next question I would like to ask you is are you prioritizing what is actually important to you?   Ask yourself is Fitness or that Weight Loss goal that you wanted to accomplish actually a priority for you? People who prioritize their health and fitness, tend to make it an non-negotiable and will make decisions based on their priorities or their values.

We are delighted to announce the launch of our new website!
