The key for staying fit and healthy is to incorporate physical activities into your lifestyle. For that reason I went on a 3-day hike along The Juan de Fuca marine trail. Located on Vancouver Island , the trail starts near Jordan River (about 1 hour drive from Victoria) and ends up close to the town of Port Renfrew. All together this is a 47 km hike into the wilderness and across several beautiful beaches.

It is truly the experience of a lifetime! Highly recommended for outdoor fans. On these intermediate trails you will strengthen your body endurance and reconnect with your soul.

If you are planning on doing the full hike, you will need water, tent, complete camping gear, bear spray, light snacks (trail mix or bars). And remember to pack light since whatever you have on your backpack will be weighing on your shoulders!

People often ask me what the difference is between working out by myself or with a personal trainer? These will vary depending on your temperament. Some people are very disciplined and focussed but many of us sometimes need a little push. Here are the major advantages:

Motivation—A key ingredient to your fitness success is always staying motivated. When you aren’t motivated you usually do the bare minimum even when you know you can accomplish more. If your workouts are repetitive or you hit a plateau you wonder if it’s even worth the effort you’re putting into it.

Guidance—This is very important when starting a fitness program. When you do not have proper guidance you are taking a risk with your fitness results. For example, if one component of your exercise or nutritional regiment is incorrect, it can jeopardize your efforts.

Having an appointment with a knowledgeable trainer who supports and challenges you will ensure you show up and show them what you’re made of!

Train hard!
