Our Life By Design Challenge for July has been to Get Your Weekly Dose Of Vitamin N… How did you do, btw?  I upped the ante a bit and challenged myself to explore at least 1 new trail each week… And I made it to 7!

For a complete list of the best, family-friendly Kanata trails, check out this post!

The Best Gatineau Park Trails

Normally I get my Vitamin N playing across the Ottawa River in Gatineau Park and I’m often asked “What trail should I do?”

Over the past 3 weeks I have covered the best Nature Trails in and around Kanata.  On today’s episode, I want to take you into my favorite Ottawa Playground – Gatineau Park.

We’ve all heard the rumors… Squatting is hard on your knees and absolutely terrible for your back, right?

In fact, I used to be one of those ‘experts’ who swore by this… Well intentioned of course, but poorly informed…

We just finished our annual 30 Day Squat Challenge and I’m so proud of everyone who participated all the way to the end! I’ve been sharing specific exercise videos on Facebook to help fix the most common problems people have…

Here they are all in one place:)

The more time that passes working in the health and fitness field the more I see the same 5 mistakes that cause people’s fitness routine to fail.

No one plans to fail, but that doesn’t negate the cold hard fact that most people do not achieve the results they’re searching for.

You want to lose body fat but you’re not.

You want to get stronger but you’re not.

You want your clothes to fit better but they don’t.

You’d love to have more energy but you’re more tired than ever before!

You wish you felt better but you’re still in pain.

Reality exists and the sooner you accept that this is where you are the sooner you can start figuring out what the heck is going wrong and begin the process of getting it fixed.
