Control your weight

Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn.

Regular trips to the gym are great, but don’t worry if you can’t find a large chunk of time to exercise every day. Any amount of activity is better than none at all. To reap the benefits of exercise, just get more active throughout your day — take the stairs instead of the elevator or rev up your household chores. Consistency is key.

Combat health conditions and diseases.

Worried about heart disease? Hoping to prevent high blood pressure? No matter what your current weight is, being active boosts high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, the “good” cholesterol, and it decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This one-two punch keeps your blood flowing smoothly, which decreases your risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Regular exercise helps prevent or manage many health problems and concerns, including:

  • Stroke
  • Metabolic syndrome
  • High blood pressure
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Many types of cancer
  • Arthritis

    Improve your mood and energy

    Need an emotional lift? Or need to destress after a stressful day? A gym session or brisk walk can help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that may leave you feeling happier, more relaxed and less anxious. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem with fitness coaching.

    Winded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lung health improve, you have more energy to tackle daily chores.

    Sleep Better

    Struggling to snooze? Regular physical activity can help you fall asleep faster, get better sleep and deepen your sleep. Just don’t exercise too close to bedtime, or you may be too energized to go to sleep.

    Exercise can be fun!

    Exercise and physical activity can be enjoyable when you work with a fitness coach. They give you a chance to unwind, enjoy the outdoors, or simply engage in activities that make you happy. So take a dance class, hit the hiking trails, or join a soccer team. Find a physical activity you enjoy, and just do it. Bored? Try something new, or do something with friends or family.

    Fitness & Nutritional Coaching with John

    John’s approach to Fitness coaching is based on teaching you how to implement healthy habits into your life; habits that not only align with your goals but more importantly, habits that align with the type of person you want to become. Goals can be useful, but they give the impression of an endpoint. There is no endpoint here…there is becoming a different person and never going back to the way you were before. His personal success is based on having habits in place that he has followed on a daily basis for decades.

    John’s goal is to teach you how to implement these habits into your life so that the changes you make are permanent ones. He’ll provide you with everything necessary to be successful, such as nutrition guidance, custom exercise programming, support, and accountability. Unfortunately, he can’t provide the effort required on your part, but he guarantees that if you put in the effort, you will have amazing results!

    If you have any questions or concerns at all then please don’t hesitate to reach out to us – We would be more than happy to help you choose the right plan.

    FITNESS PLANS JOHN OFFERS:

    Habit-Based Exercise Coaching

    The exercise program will be tailored to your goals, schedule, limitations, and equipment which means you will make more progress than using a cookie-cutter routine. In addition, Coach John will personally provide you with support and accountability to help you stay on track!

    Note: The assumption here is that you already have solid nutrition habits in place!

If you are unsure whether or not you require help with your nutrition then please contact Coach John as he would be happy to discuss with you the best course of action to take for your fitness journey.

    What you get

    • Initial coaching call (over the phone or Zoom) to set you up for success.
    • Customized exercise programming from Coach John.
    • Programming to ensure that you are performing exercises in a progressive manner to ensure that you keep progressing with no injuries.
    • Coaching app where the training will be delivered along with an in-app messenger that allows for both written and video messages in order to keep you on-track.
    • Online coaching manual to walk you through the process so that there is no confusion.

    Habit-Based Nutrition + Exercise Coaching

    This plan is for those that want to tackle both their fitness and nutrition together (which typically includes most individuals). Combining good nutrition habits with regular physical activity makes for a potent combination that simply cannot be beat. In order to live a fulfilling and healthy life, the reality is, is that both of these must be a part of your life.

    A note on the Nutrition Coaching portion: Having the correct nutrition habits in-place is paramount in order to optimize your progress, whether you are trying to lose fat, build muscle, or simply improve your overall health. This plan will give you a solid nutrition foundation so that you never fall for a quack-diet again and so that you can maintain your weight-loss forever. With this program, be prepared to get educated as Coach John desires that all of his clients learn the latest evidence-based nutrition information!

    A note on the Exercise Coaching portion: Having the best nutrition habits in-place in the world simply is not good enough if you want to optimize your health and be able to function optimally. For example, did you know that having more muscle means that you can better regulate your blood sugar and that you can burn more Calories at rest than someone with less muscle? Let’s also not forget that stronger and fitter individuals live longer, can participate in more of their favourite activities and are able to be more independent as they age (not require assisted living).

    I am a mother of two, now adult children and a grandmother to one incredible little boy. I am on a mission to help as many Women in Midlife Transform their life by creating healthy habits (not restrictions) to improve their health and well-being just as I did.

    Many years ago, I didn’t realize that I was unhealthy and causing my own problems. I looked to the doctors to find a reason, thinking something was causing the bloating, inflammation, pain and discomfort.

    I thought I ate healthy food. I tried restricting my diet, but nothing changed. I spent a fortune on medications trying to fix my health problems being reactive instead of proactive when it was all preventable.

    I was stuck in the cycle, thinking it is too expensive to look after myself when in actual fact, it was more expensive to regain my health. I learnt that the hard way, and I want to prevent YOU from experiencing what I did.

    I had a friend that introduced me to what became a gradual lifestyle change. It was a journey that she was on, and I really just joined her to be social. I did not realize how much I needed it myself. It did not take long before I developed new habits and started to learn about my body and what is a healthy balanced diet. It truly makes me ask myself, what would my life be like now, if I didn’t make changes? What would my health be like now, it I didn’t make changes? How would my family see me now, if I didn’t make changes?

    Was it easy, no, not always. I had times of doubt and times of going backwards but I kept going. I learnt that consistency is key. I learnt to trust the process. I learnt about exercise, nutrition and how my body works and eliminates unwanted toxins and fats. I learnt the keys to making mindset shifts to enable a mind to body transformation. It became my new way of life.

    My energy increased, my confidence increased and my belly decreased. This is a journey to be embraced and develop new habits that are sustainable and enjoyable.

    When it comes to health insurance, those of us who’ve needed it over the years are grateful for it, but, our greatest health insurance is what we do for ourselves everyday: getting in high-quality nutrition, exercise, fresh air, and self-care.

    If my story has resonated with you, I hope it has given you hope and inspiration, it’s never too late. My wish for you, if you are reading this and feeling like there is no hope is not to despair like I did. I couldn’t of done it alone and wouldn’t expect you to do it alone either. This is why I want to help as many Women in Midlife to regain their health and live their best lives.
