Yes!! . Okay ladies, yes I am picking on us ladies because I rarely hear a man ask to be toned, but we need to STOP using this gawd awful word.."toned" . "I don't want to lift weights or have muscle, I just want to be toned"....no! You WANT to lift weights to get the LEAN muscle mass look your looking for. . Toned isn't its own thing, it's simply building muscle. And ladies, please stop thinking that if you lift "heavy" your going to look like that female bodybuilding on the cover of muscle insider. Because your not. Do you realize how much effort that takes to look like that, diet wise and gym wise..it's insane!! Plus trust me, your not hitting nearly enough protein in a day and calories to become like that. . So if you want to be "toned" 🤦 lift some weights, build some lean muscle mass. And tell your trainer "I want to build lean muscle". . . . . #fullbody #muscles #womenwholift #momswholift #girlswholift #fitness #personaltraining #yegfitness #gymrat #leanmuscle #nosuchthingastoned #ihatethewordtoned

*Core, Chest, Triceps, Legs..oh my* . So this is probably one of my favorite sequences .. I know, I know, I'm weird haha. But I really do like moves like this that get the entire body working hard and working on flexibility. . So I did this as a finisher in a 12 min AMRAP circuit. I did about 6:30 mins worth. The sequence is the following: 1️⃣ 1-3 MB sit up - burpee push up - wall ball pyramid (complete 1 push up, 1 push up and 1 wall ball..then 2 sit ups, 2 push ups, 2 wall bald, etc). 2️⃣ 20 mountain leapers (should feel this in your obliques). . It's a great one on its own or as a finisher after doing a full body routine, like I did. Regardless, it will leave you out of breath 😅. Enjoy!. . . . . . #workout #workhard #workoutvideos #fullbody #fullbodyworkout #gymrat #garagegym #yegfitness #yeggym #personaltraining #momlife #momoftwo #weightlossjourney #yegpersonaltraining #fitness #fitmom #wallballs #corefitness #coreworkout #sweat #workhard #lifestyle #corestrength #stayflexible

**stability ball abs** . Give this one a try! 4-6 rounds of the following: 1️⃣ 4 jackknives 2️⃣ 4 push ups 3️⃣ 8 crossbody knee drives 4️⃣ 8 plank step offs . Make sure you keep your core engaged the entire time..ribs tucked in, back flat. It's very easy to let your back dip in this sequence, so go slow and controlled to prevent that. . Let me know how you found this sequence. . . . #fullbody #fullbodyworkout #stabilityballworkouts #abs #abworkout #workout #workoutvideos #workoutroutine #motivation #strength #strongcore #strongcorestrongbody #6packabs #gymrat #fitdad #yegfitness #yeggym #garagegym #yegpersonaltrainer

Almost 9 months postpartum. I'll post the before and afters at or after my 9 month mark. But I was curious to see if there was any changes from September to now. . I honestly felt like there wasn't much change. I hit a massive set back in November with Hailey's bad sleep patterns from constant teething (6 teeth at 8 months 😲😲) , I was literally exhausted ALL the time and still training my usual, early mornings and all. So my diet got hit hard with high carbs and low protein. My workouts went from 4 times/week to 1 or mmaaayybeee 2, if I was lucky...I just didn't have enough energy to get me into the gym after 3 hour nights and training all day 😥. . And no, it's no excuse but I had a choice..nap during my free time or workout. Well honestly, at that point, naps were more beneficial to my mental, emotional and physical health. And that's OK. . Sooo with all that fun stuff, December came and I was ssooo disappointed with progress. So I made a promise. Since Hailey is back to sleeping normally, I promised to hit the gym 5-6x/week, get my diet back in check, and my overall activity levels back up. . This is my 12 days of December result haha..kind of.. but I kicked my own butt and I am very proud of what I see for change. . The overall size of my waist went down, the "low back fat" gone and definition in my core is getting there!! This is why you do NOT quit even when life gets in the way. You keep going, keep your goal in your head and as soon as you get a clearing in your life, you get right back on track, ALL in! . 9 more days until I hit my 9 month postpartum mark after kid numero deux! Let's keep going! 💪 . . . . . #fullbodyworkout #postpartumbody #bodyafterbaby #momoftwo #fitmom #yegmoms #yegpersonaltraining #yegpersonaltrainer #yeggym #yegfitness #fitnessmotivation #fitness #garagegym #gymrat #fitmoms #leanmuscle #weightlossjourney #workhard #workout

Yes! This is so true! . Here's the thing...we do eat brown or rye bread. But honestly, it's because I prefer it over white. I honestly prefer sour dough bread!. . But when it comes to rice and pasta..we eat white. White jasmine rice and white pasta...what?!?! The reason , everytime I ate brown rice I would bloat like a balloon. Same with pasta. So clearly, for my body brown isn't a good choice and that's ok!. . It's NOT going to make me fat or unhealthy eating white pasta, rice or even bread. Maybe you won't get as many nutrients from it but your getting some. But I also don't rely on those foods to give me my nutrients..I take my greens, eat my veggies and fruit, I take multivitamins and my omega 3s. I eat balanced. . Don't fall into this, just because something is categorized as unhealthy, ask yourself why is it really. If you can't come up with a really good reason, then your probably ok. . . . . #foodislife #choices #healthyfoodchoices #foodchoices #nutrition #yourbody #fitness

Brooke made up her own circuit....and repeated it multiple times. This isn't the first time she has made up a routine... Trainer in the making

This couldn't be more true. People constantly criticize how we eat. Worrying about the small stuff that doesn't really matter, and missing the bigger picture. . "Cheese is bad..fats aren't good..coffee is bad".. blah, blah, blah. I really think this is why so many people struggle with food. Stop criticizing every food, and try to understand why something may not be the best choice and why others are. . For the record, cheese, fats and coffee are good...everything can be beneficial if you eat things in moderation. . . . #foodchoices #healthylifestyle #yegfitness #fitness #fuelyourbody #foodislife #foodismedicine #goodfood #goodchoices #fitfromfood

DB complex**. . You know I LOVE my complexes. This one was "fun". I did 8 rounds, this was round 7. Goal: complete 5-8 rounds as fast as you can WHILE keeping good form. . Form should not go down the crapper just because you want to be speedy gonzales. Haha 😂. . 4 push ups. 4 renegade rows. 4 ground zero squats. 4 DB cleans. 4 push presses. 4 front squats. 4 front reverse lunges ALT . Let me know if you tried it and what you thought. Pick a weight that's challenges you- you should have to take breaks because of muscle fatigue. . Enjoy 💪. . . . . . . #fullbodyworkout #fitness #fit #dumbbellworkout #workout #workoutvideos #freeworkout #yegfitness #yeggym #fitmom #garagegym #fitchick #pushup #workhard #motivation #absaftertwokids #momswhowork #momlife #personaltraining #yegpersonaltrainer

*BOSU abs...and shoulders..and chest..oh my* . Okay, here is my BOSU (@bosu_fitness ) core workout today. Did 3 rounds of this and yikes!! My core, shoulders and chest were on 🔥! . Complete 10 reps of each move for 3 or more rounds. Depending on your workout layout. . Keep your core engaged the entire time. Ribs tucked in. Think of keeping your core intact like your about to get punched in the stomach- the more you stabilize your core the better you can take that "hit" to the gut. . Remember, if you want to see ab definition it's NOT by doing this, or any core work..it totally relies on your diet. . Don't be fooled by 6 pack equals strength..it doesn't . You can have a very strong core but have no or minimal definition. Others have a 6 or 8 pack but can't do much when it comes to core work. Sometimes muscles are just for show..but by doing exercises that challenge you, it will allow you to build strong, useful muscles. The definition will come by what you make in the kitchen 💪. . . . . #fullbody #bosu #bosuballworkout #corefitness #coreworkout #abs #absaftertwokids #summerbody #training #trainhard #bodyweighttraining #pushup #shoulderworkout #chestworkout #yegfitnessgirls #yegfitness #fitness #fitmom #yegtrainer #personaltraining #personaltrainer #garagegym
