Connect What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

The gym community is the best getting to meet new people and have new opportunities come to you. Having friends that you make at the gym who push you to be better everyday gives me lots of motivation. Besides the great community and the personal growth, the gym is also my go-to for stress relief. There's something about pushing your body physically that clears my mind. Plus, the feeling of accomplishment after a tough workout is unbeatable.

What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?

since I'm already in the gym five days a week and playing junior A hockey and rugby, my fitness routine is pretty action-packed! My favorite way to train is definitely a blend of strength and conditioning. In the gym, I focus on building strength with compound lifts like squats, deadlifts, and bench presses. That helps me with power on the ice and the field.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I had $20,000, I’d get a power rack, bumper plates, and a barbell for strength. Then add a sled, plyo box, and resistance bands for speed and power. Finish with a treadmill and air bike for cardio, plus good flooring and storage to keep it safe and organized.
