One of my favourite things about being a trainer is watching people achieve things they told themselves they couldn’t (whether out loud or not). Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share my love of fitness, movement, and health. @ Festival Place

TURKISH GET UPS Challenge full body awareness and control Require shoulder, hip & core stability in various planes (good if you wanna be strong AF) ... May make you feel and/or look like a badass These fit in well at the beginning or end of your workout to create a sense of full body connection and engagement. The calm nature of TGU’s also contrast nicely in between sets of higher intensity exercises that demand more power. We love a smart superset! Try em out now or save em for your next workout!

We’ve been social distancing for how long already?! At first, without much processing, I was like, now I have all the time in the world and no excuses to not do all the things. Regardless of the intense feelings I was having about the situation, I was . I’ve realized I was just keeping as busy as possible trying to fill my time without actually checking in with myself. I am the Queen of Distractions. ... So... Checking in... What’s my new normal? How am I going to overcome this? . Now that things have "settled", I have moments of extreme uncertainty, complete lack of motivation, and deep sadness for the world. , , . I'm just taking it day by day. How are you? Check in with yourself! Check in with me! We’re all in this together. See more

PSA: I will sneeze on anyone who mentions gaining the quaratine 15. Is it time to collectively understand and agree that fluctuations in weight are NORMAL & the emotional stress/low self esteem that stems from diet culture and social media could actually be MORE detrimental to your well-being than changes on the scale? Yes, yes it is.... I recommend staying at least 6 feet away from anyone who disagrees or makes you question your worth. Happy Monday everyone! See more

Introducing: HOLLOW BODY HOLDS The hollow body position will challenge your core, shoulder, and hip stability. It’s also a great tool to practice mimicking the braced position that we use for our big lifts. Shown in video (from least to most challenging):... 1. Curl Ups - The bent helps keep lower back on floor. 2. Modified Hollow Body Hold 3. Hollow Body Hold 4. Hollow Body Flutter Kicks Keep your lower back pressed into the floor at all times. Do this by tilting your pelvis slightly towards your nose and engaging your lower abs to keep your ribs down. If you are unable to find that position, bring your legs higher up or start with a modification! GO SLOW and BREATHE! Give em a TRY right now (your bedroom floor works) Or SAVE them for later! Happy Saturday! See more

3 things to do everyday while social distancing 1 Practice mindfulness. Your mindfulness practice might look like journaling, listening to music or podcasts, being outside, meditating, etc. Regardless, consider spending some 1-on-1 time with you and be in your flow for a while. ... 2 Seek connection. FaceTime someone you love everyday. Send them a smile! If you have to leave the house, or if you go for a walk in your neighbourhood, say hi to everyone (from a safe distance). Chances are they’re craving connection too. 3 Physical activity. Exercise helps with the production of serotonin which contributes to mental health. Getting at least 30 minutes of movement everyday will benefit your overall wellbeing! Try a live workout, go for a walk, play with your kids/pets, or move your body in some other way that feels good. Stay strong and healthy! If you need any support, please reach out (swipe!!) @ Westmount, Edmonton See more

Ally Alpern PFT 21.02.2020

3 Ways to Keep Making Gains at Home Without Weights 1. Unilateral exercises. Single arm/leg pushups, squats, deadlifts, planks, etc. are all challenging enough with little to no weight. ... 2. Time under tension. Try performing your favourite exercises at different tempos or even add some isometric holds! 3. Start fixing your !! Even if you can’t lift ALL the heavy weights you could take this time to work on imbalances, tight/weak points, and practicing perfect form. I’ll be safe at home working on my shoulder stability/mobility some more. When we get to go back to the gym, our heavy lifts will feel better than ever. #fixyourshitquarantine #allyoooopfit See more

Thought this might come in handy with all the push-up challenges and home workouts going around. Save this one for later or get up and practice some push-up variations right now!

Ally Alpern PFT 26.12.2019

Just go for a walk 1. The mental and physiological benefits! Studies show that walking for even just 5-10 minutes daily can have positive effects on your mood, energy, and productivity. 2. Set the tone for your day. Its kinda like the butterfly effect. Maybe since you already went for a walk this morning you’re gonna go for the salad at lunch, and since you have so much energy from having a good day, you’ll hit that late workout too! Small steps still count!... 3. You never know what could happen. That short walk could be the reminder your mind and body needed to move! You might find yourself motivated to do a little more and next thing you know your 5 minute walk has turned into a 45 minute adventure! Now you’ve got all your steps in for the day! Bonus: the less crowded walking areas are often the most beautiful - so get yourself outside and go for a little walk! See more

5 Ways to Make Your Workouts Work Better 1. Smart supersets. Pairing exercises together is a great way to increase exercise density, heart rate & avoid boredom. 2. Beneficial fillers. Fillers can be a simple way to help address problem areas without having to include an extensive warmup. Lazy glutes? Add some glute bridges in between squat sets. ... 3. Challenge your stance. Half-kneeling, single-leg, split stances and others are effective ways to further challenge your stabilizing muscles and progress simple movements. 4. Be intentional. When programming, consider things like volume, intensity, tempo, and recovery times. Work on progressively overloading, consistency, and patience. 5. Start strong. Begin with the biggest/hardest exercise - usually compound movements like squats, deadlifts, pull-ups, and presses! Hope these tips help you crush your next workout even harder!

Ally Alpern PFT 05.12.2019

The ALL OR NOTHING approach is sabotaging your goals and here’s why Have you ever heard someone say: I’ll start again on Monday. Or maybe: I’ll go to the gym 5 times next week to make up for not going this week. ... If you feel like you have to do everything right all the time to see results, keep reading Yes, if you have a goal, you need to work for it. And also, your goal and lifestyle need to work FOR YOU! Can’t hit the gym this week because you’re exhausted from school? Go for a walk instead to relax, unwind, and get some extra steps in. Feel like you ruined your diet with one cheat meal or binge? You didn’t - get back on track for the next one. You don’t need to make up for anything. You just need to keep doing the best you can, when you can. The bottom line: something is ALWAYS better than nothing. And SOMETIMES something is better than everything. See more

HOW TO GET YOUR FIRST CHIN-UP Start where you can. When you’ve successfully completed the progression, move to the next one! 1. - basically the same mechanics as a chin-up, but with the legs on the ground you reduce the amount of bodyweight you have to lift. Once you can complete ~10 reps on the lowest adjustment, move to the next progression. ... 2. - (what I’m doing here!!) - jump up to the top position of the chin-up, stabilize yourself by engaging your abs and glutes, and SLOWLY lower the entire way. Once you can complete ~5 reps of 5 second lowers, move to the next progression. 3. - - loop one end of a band around the bar and the other around your feet or knees. Once you can do ~8-10 chin-ups, use a thinner and thinner band. When you are able to do ~8 reps with the thinnest band, you are probably ready for your first chin-up. 4. - - this is going to require some grit and courage. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF! Start from a dead hang position with your shoulders away from your ears/lats engaged. Work towards bringing your CHEST all the way up to the bar! I recommend including whichever progression you’re at 2-3x per week. Once you get your first chin-up, practice one or two chin-ups repeatedly throughout the day to develop it as a skill (it helps if you have a chin-up bar at home). NOW GO GET THAT CHIN-UP! Want specific videos on these progressions? Let me know! See more

5 Reasons Why Women Should Lift Weights 1. More muscles = more energy used. Muscle tissue is metabolically more active and burns more calories than fat tissue. The more muscle tissues available, the greater your resting energy expenditure will be, which basically means that your body will burn more calories while doing nothing. 2. Lifting weights burns more calories. This has to do with the fact that muscle tissue gets damaged during a strength training sessio...n. The body has to work to replenish and repair the muscle tissue, which burns calories in the process! 3. It changes your body composition. This is similar to the points above in relation to muscle synthesis. Strength training promotes changes in your body through an increase in fat-free body mass, muscular strength, and bone-mineral status. 4. Makes you feel badass. You know that feeling when you go to lift something heavy and you’re actually strong enough to do it? Badass. 5. Longevity! Strength training has the ability to reduce the risk of osteoporosis and the signs and symptoms of numerous chronic diseases such as heart disease, arthritis, and type 2 diabetes, while also improving sleep and mental health! Have I convinced you yet? Message me if you’re curious about how to start strength training! See more

Has anyone else spent ridiculous amounts of time sitting in their car outside the gym building up courage to go in? You’re not alone! Here’s my list of top tips that seem to help gym anxiety ... * Go during slow hours (very early in the morning or in between the lunch rush) to build up confidence and self efficacy * Don’t read too far into other people’s behaviours - if someone’s looking at you, either ask them all good? or start picking your nose in between sets and hopefully they’ll look away * Expect the best from others and ask for help if you need it - most people will be happy to spot you * Have a plan - get a trainer, a program or go with your buddy so you know exactly what to expect when you get there * Exercise releases endorphins which can make you feel happier and more relaxed - so just go do it * Talk to a therapist about it - if anxiety/other mental health issues are impacting your ability to complete day-to-day tasks, it’s never a bad idea to talk to a professional about it Of course, everyone experiences anxiety in their own ways, and these tips might not resonate with everyone. Whats worked for you? Let’s talk about it! See more

? YES... and no. What results are you looking for? Be SPECIFIC. ... If you want to get generally healthier (lose weight, move better, have less pain, increase mobility and stability) it is possible to achieve similar results with body weight training and weight training (with the right program). On the other hand, if you’re looking for major gains, muscular hyper trophy, and functional strength (for carrying ALL the groceries in at once) then resistance training CAN get you better results. Adding a load of external resistance is the most effective way to stress to the muscles to stimulate growth and strength. That being said, bodyweight workouts (including yoga, kinaesthetics/gymnastics, barre, martial arts, etc.) also have the potential to get you strong AF. - ? If lifting weights makes you feel BADASS then lift weights... but if it’s handstands, pullups and dancer’s pose that do it for you... it is possible to achieve great results with either types of exercise.

Dear people with (aka me)... HEEL ELEVATED GOBLET SQUATS! For some long-legged lifters like me, the plate allows a greater depth by positioning the knees further forward. Once you’ve mastered the goblet squat with the plate under your heels- . Goblet squats are a great way to build up the core strength and mobility required for traditional back squats. ... The plates are great training wheels but the ultimate goal is to be able to squat pain-free on our on two feet. Although this is an awesome way to build up some strength and mobility, it shouldn’t be used in place of (but in addition to) specific ankle/thoracic mobility drills to help your squat (at least in my humble opinion...)!

Keep your eyes on the kettlebell at all times. Try these out without weight first, or challenge yourself by balancing your shoe on your fist!

ZERCHER SQUATS... for the seasoned squatter WHO invented these? A super strong guy, Ed Zercher, who wanted to be able to squat without a rack. ... WHERE does the bar go? It sits in the crooks of your elbows! You can use a pad if you’re a wimp like me. WHAT does this allow? More thoracic extension and for some, a bigger range of motion and depth. WHY try this lift? It will challenge your upper back and trunk strength due to the unique bar positioning & we all like strong backs and cores. Especially if we’re also deadlifting and squatting. Not to mention that bicep contraction... Like & save & try em on out! Happy Thursday Fit Fam, as always if you have any questions about how to program these, send me a DM. See more

Raise your hand if you’ve ever been personally victimized by BACK PAIN Most of us spend our days sitting, standing, reading, typing, texting, eating, driving, or some combination of forward bending. Excessive forward bending can (among many other factors) contribute to muscle imbalances, poor posture, and back pain. ... Fortunately, there are ways to help MINIMIZE YOUR BACK PAIN... 1. Remove triggers that contribute to pain. Use supportive footwear, seating, and be mindful of the tension in your body. 2. Create a solid foundation for pain-free movement. Working with a trainer to help address muscle weakness and imbalances can support your long term back health. I’m accepting clients for in person and online training.

Hi, I’m Ally. My passions include... Fitness, health & wellness, Outdoor adventures, Great music, ... Vegan eats and sour candies, My family and friends who are like family, Coffee/yoga/candles (combined especially) I haven’t always been a fitness fanatic. Throughout high school and after quitting sports I developed a pretty negative body image and anxiety really started taking over my life. I worked to gain control of mental health with different strategies including therapy, and developed a powerful sense of mental strength, understanding and control. Then, I decided my inner strength should match my outer strength. I ditched the cardio/restrictive eating cycles and started lifting weights and eating plant based foods. I soon became obsessed with the feelings of confidence, strength and accomplishment from strength training and have been in love with it ever since. For me, there is no better mind-body connection. I hope to use this account as a way to connect with others who are passionate about fitness and wellbeing, as well as to create a support system full of other awesome, empowering, like-minded individuals.

3 THINGS STRENGTH TRAINING TAUGHT ME 1. You’re only as strong as you think you are. Your mind will either tell you you can or you can’t. Either way, your body believes it. 2. Be comfortable being uncomfortable. Growth is made outside the comfort zone, so push yourself while always knowing your limit. 3. It’s okay to fail. Failure = you tried. And that’s never a bad thing. ... Not the prettiest squats today but getting operation squat my body weight is under full effect. See more
