When you choose to eat healthy or go to the gym regularly or sleep 8 hours a night, sometimes, we have to be prepared for all of those things to happen. The actions or words of those around us are constantly pulling us back towards our old habits.
FirePower's vision is to 'Reconnect Families Through Sport', and this is one of my fav examples.
Sometimes we become too obsessed with being “perfect” in our path to success. NO ONE IS PERFECT! This can cause utmost amounts of stress if a flexible mindset is not present. This stress can be amplified over the holidays as food at events and traffic may be outside of your control.
Get the facts about food safety!
Join us for a Christmas Eve to remember! Workout with your friends and family while we cook breakfast for you!
Introducing "FirePower Cares". Our special way to share with you a resource of care and listening to the hurdles, challenges, and pressures of life that hold you back from greatness. We are blessed and thankful to have such a wonderful person in our community who cares so much about our members to offer help.
David has been FirePower member for close to 3 years now. Despite a long list of physical injuries and limitations, he's proof that with determination, precision coaching and time served, he can rebuild himself to a new level of athlete!
If you are reading this, chances are you are a fitness addict. Non-fitness addicts don't understand your dedication and may sometimes even call it an obsession. However, even as dedicated as you may be, it is normal to go through slumps or feel unmotivated for small periods of time...
Katie & her husband Stuart are members at FirePower. This past week she earned her "100 Shirt" and wrote this post on her FaceBook. With her permission, we couldn't be more proud to share it!
Coach Ryan tells us a little bit about his past and journey with fitness, food, and what brought him to where he is today. "I was on the heavier side in terms of bodyweight but didn’t think anything of it. I was always informed kids are allowed to be 'heavier' or 'built like a football player.' Boy…was I wrong about how football players were built."
As hard as it is to believe, we are less than 2 months away from 2019 -- The New Year. The new year is the time when we set goals that we want to accomplish in the 12 months ahead of us. These goals are usually related to weight loss, travel, work, getting fit or focusing more on ourselves. These are what we plan to be our next steps in life.
The holidays go by in a blur and they can be some of our most memorable times and also some of our most stressful of times. Many people struggle this time of the year with their nutrition and fitness goals due to this stress.
With the leaves fully changing colour with the fall season, you might have already noticed pumpkin spice everything, holiday décor and activities, and an increase in prices for those holiday flight tickets home. Another thing that comes with the change in seasons is a change in our schedules and routines.
That feeling when you have everything together and organized… How does this impact your self care, in particular, your nutrition and exercise patterns?

Many of us at one point or another have dealt or are dealing with some form of pain in our shoulders. Sometimes we try stretching them, backing off weight in workouts, or massaging shoulders with a lacrosse ball and things never seem to be 100%. That’s because typical soreness in shoulders is a result of something else.

Success doesn't come from one moment in time. It's about the steps we take to reach our goals. Read more to take a closer look at building habits and how they contribute to your life.
The simple fact of the matter is that you don't suck as much as you think you do. You can do this. You are doing this. (from Words By Lisbeth)
We are all about TEAM at #teamfirepower. Sometimes you're carrying a teammate, and sometimes you're the one being carried. At the end of the day, it's all team member's level of combined effort, not just skill that makes the best teammates.
I was a mid-30s Dad looking to step out of my comfort zone and try some new stuff. Years later I have a list of personal accomplishments that I would have never thought possible and more importantly I’ve found a second home/family.
Many of us dread stepping on the scale. It’s the uncertainty of “will my weight be up or down?” Has all of my hard work, planning and tracking worked? The truth is, our weight doesn’t accurately represent our body composition. People’s weight only represents their OVERALL WEIGHT at that specific point in time...
As a healthcare worker, Tisha's last 12 months have been through hell and back and it's not over yet. But here she reflects on how quickly her state of mind can change now that the gym has reopened.
Neda was looking for a new routine and changes to her health. At 25lbs lost already, she's half way to her goal and all the way in on confidence!
It seems everyone these days are seeking the quick fix. In reality, there is no quick fix. There's only hard work, dedication and the results will come. Karen and Jason are examples of a family diving head first into a long term lifestyle. The results speak for themselves.
John shares his journey to finding confidence in all areas of life with the impact on him mentally, emotionally, and physically.
When a client walks through the door, they aren't judged on their abilities, but their determination and effort. Coach Annie shares this heartwarming story of her client Pam who changed her life and those around her, including Annie's.
Samreen began at FirePower ahead of her time. She was the lone teenager in a sea of thirty to forty-something year old athletes. She had no one to relate to. She had never participated in any physical challenge; CrossFit was her introduction. Despite being out of place and over challenged Samreen had a determination and kindness that was unparalleled.
Today we are honoured to bring you the final instalment in our 2019 campaign we called Fitness Is Who I Am. We’ve spent the last 8 months bringing you stories of amazing members who have made fitness part of their lives; beyond classes, beyond squats, thrusters and burpees; beyond the cosmetic or weightloss outer self; and beyond themselves.
"FirePower has been by my side through the worst time of my life and for that I am forever grateful. Any time I speak or think of FirePower I smile."
Maria joined FirePower 8 years ago when she was 16 years old, way before we had a varsity program. With the soul of a lamb but the heart of a lion, she soon became everyone’s favourite “Little Maria”. Here's her story of how fitness has influenced her life.
After learning that his driver’s license had been suspended for medical reasons and that all of his retirement plans were now on hold, Jon (62 years old) joined FirePower in February 2019. He decided to take advantage of the fact that he was “stranded in Milton”, got his mountain bike tuned up and peddled over to FirePower. His new project was himself!
Our campaign of Fitness Is Who I Am aims to showcase our members who are using their fitness outside the gym to shape their lives. Beyond CrossFit and the rugby field, the Jones family shows us it doesn’t stop there!
For most, fitness is simply a way to stay healthy, to maintain a reasonable body weight, ward off disease, or simply look good for their partner. For Coach BrianKay (“BK”), fitness has an entirely different meaning: to save his life and those around him.
We are wonderfully excited to present the next in our series Fitness Is Who I Am. We are beyond proud of his accomplishments inside the gym, but more inspired by his pursuit of humanity outside the gym and across the globe.
Fitness isn’t something you do; it’s who you are. It’s the lens of of how you see yourself in the world. For some it’s your lifeline to keep your sanity while for others it’s a health necessity to keep you alive. Here's Andrea's story of how fitness influences her life decisions.
In 10 short months, this FirePower Varsity athlete transformed his physical self, gained confidence and is inspired his family along the way!
Sometimes life takes you places you never anticipated. A little piece of FirePower will be traveling half way across the globe for a while. Rodd Olmstead, dubbed the "Mayor of 6am", will be heading to Japan for a year. Here's his message to the community.
3719. That’s how many days of FirePower since Day 1. That’s almost four thousand days of cool gym happenings, recollections, and memories. But sometimes, random moments stick in my brain like it was yesterday. There is one moment that has stuck with me for years...
Tammy and her husband Jay came to FirePower in 2008 seeking weightloss but found so much more. Close to a decade later, “Mighty Mouse” is seeing strength and benchmark workout improvements, and still finding joy in the same community.
