How did you get into fitness?
I’ve been active my whole life with track, basketball, and volleyball. Once college hit, and I stopped, I became very unhealthy and gained a lot of weight. I decided to get a gym membership and slowly started sharing my journey on IG. As more people started asking me for advice, I decided it was time to get my CPT certificate and help others!
What type of workouts do you like to do?
I’m the type of person who enjoys switching it up, but I mostly enjoy strength training and Pilates right now. Also love going for walks with my dog to get my steps in!
What’s on your workout playlist?
Either EDM or Rap, depending on what mood I’m in.
What do you recommend for those who are new to fitness?
Invest in a good coach. There’s so much conflicting information out there, so finding a good coach who knows you & your goals and who won’t risk your health & mental wellness is so important.
How important is nutrition in achieving fitness goals, and what dietary advice do you typically give to your clients?
It’s the most important factor, I believe, when it comes to achieving fitness goals. I always advocate for a balanced, nonrestrictive approach when it comes to diet. No fad diets or unrealistic eating restrictions.
Why try a meal prep service like Fit Kitchen?
It really makes eating healthy so much easier. It saves you money, time, reduces food waste, and is a great way to incorporate variety in your diet without sacrificing your goals.
What are your go to Fit Kitchen meals/snacks?
Anyone who knows me knows I’m obsessed with the PB Crunch Protein Pudding, its one of the best snacks for on the go and has a ton of protein. I also always order the Tasty Thai Beef, Killer Beef Enchiladas, and Mac & Gainz
We’re all about balance! What are some of your fave places to eat in Calgary?
Hula Poke and Cactus Club are a few of my favs
