Hey everyone,

We have been getting quite a few requests about our GTA Fitness Workshops held at local Fitness Source’s.

It seems some of the Frequently Asked Questions are;

Is this free? What’s the catch? ?Absolutely free, no catch, no obligation. Just spreading the word of Fitness.

What do you exactly do there? ?We allow the public to sample new fitness tools and get a great sweat doing so.

Where and when they are held at? ?http://www.meetup.com/Fitness-Workshops-TRAINERSONSITE/

Well, here is a quick video on our workshops

If we at Trainers On Site can help more people get fit, mission accomplished!

When it comes to exercise, us at Trainers On Site like to think we know fitness!

One of our favorite websites to frequent is Discovery Health.

Discovery health has plenty of factual information and sometimes cool activites to do within their website.

For example check out this excersie fitness test. It takes only 5 minutes and you find out how great your personal knowledge is when it comes to health and wellness.

Be sure to leave a comment and let us know your score. Were you as savvy as you thought you were?

Everything…

Hey everyone.

I just got back from a week long vacation to the greatest place on earth – Walt Disney World!!!

We stayed in a resort just 10 min from Disney.

Don’t worry the resort had a decent gym with plenty of Dumbbells (I checked before booking).

Since I was on vacation I actually had some real amazing hour long workouts – Trainers On Site style.

While my wife and kiddies were asleep, I woke up (after sleeping in – my sleeping in is 7:15am) and snuck out down to the gym.

I completed 5 workouts while there. Although my specialty is in home personal training, going to the gym was kinda cool for a change.

The workouts went like this;

Day 1 Chest, Shoulders, Triceps.

Day 2 Back and Biceps.

Day 3 Shoulders and Legs.

Day 4 Chest and Triceps.

Day 5 Back and Biceps again.

What an amazing way to start the days.

And if you have ever been to Disney, you know there is a plenty of walking to do! (I almost had a desire to borrow a Segway – they were so cool)

Carrying a 35 lb child on your shoulders wrecks havic on one’s back.

I have to admit I did indulge into the odd cheeseburger and fries combo. (Ok, a couple of beers too)

What I can’t believe is some of the crazy conveniences people do while visiting Disney.

I am not so sure that everyone in one of those RENT A SCOOTER’s were actually handi-capped.

Being overweight and obese (A huge problem in North America) is really hard on the knees, legs and lower back.

What a great time it was. We had a blast!

I suggest everyone go at least once. And of course, walk the whole park!

Remember, vacation’s are not vacation’s for your body. This is probably the best time to get on the fitness wagon again.

Posting pictures soon.

Leave a comment and tell me about your favourite Disney Vacation workouts.

Hey guys,

On this post I want to discuss what type of equipment do you use with your resistance training.

Are you a believer of Bands?

Do you benefit from Barbells?

Or do dumbbells deliver?

Bands…

I like bands personally for many different reasons;

• They are portable
• They are affordable
• They provide varied resistance

With bands, when you start the exercise the load is easy but gradually becoming increasingly harder every inch into the movement.

Bands weigh virtually nothing but when expanded they can be a tough load on the desired muscle.

Barbells…

The reason why barbells are great is;

• You can lift very heavy weight
• Very sturdy
• You can perform power movements

Barbells usually require a great deal of space and are most often used in a gym setting. One would have to be an experienced exercise enthusiast to use barbells.

Dumbbells

Dumbbells rock because;

• They are portable
• You can recruit a great deal of stabilizer muscles with them
• The required resistance

Dumbbells give you the same resistance at the start of the movement all the way through until the end. If you are investing in dumbbells, invest in Bowflex select techs http://www.fitnesssource.ca

You surely don’t want to invest in 17 different sets of dumbbells and pay double the price?

Don’t forget to leave your comment on the blog on which you prefer, Bands , Barbells, or Dumbbells?

Here’s that video;

Well, here it is – another day of Fitness just in time for the holidays.

I came across this product through 1 of my Brampton In Home Personal Training clients.

Now, due to the popularity and success my clients are having, I am thinking it should become mandatory for all my clients.

I get no commission for promoting this product or any direct benefit from you buying this.

The benefit I get is you getting fit!!!

It works and it is my favourite most revolutionary product out there on my list.

Besides buying personal training for a loved one, this is the most important Fitness product out there anyone can buy.

It rocks and is my 2nd gift idea on my list!
