This year has been trying, to say the least. All of us have felt the weight and stress of the pandemic this year. We like this quote to end 2020 because it reminds us that the pressure of the past year will only make us more brilliant and beautiful . This week, we encourage you to look for the ways that 2020 has brought out your best and allowed you to shine. #motivationmonday #movementequalshealth #ultraprivategym #BeOurGuest #exerciseismedicine #livewell #medicalfitness

We thought this was a great quote for this holiday week because we may not be able to see many of our loved ones. This quote reminds us that though we may have empty chairs at our table, our hearts are full, and we can still find the joy of the season. This week try to focus on all that is right and celebrate the love, happiness and health in your lives. #motivationmonday #movementequalshealth #ultraprivategym #BeOurGuest #exerciseismedicine #livewell #medicalfitness

As we approach the end of a very difficult year, we'd love to take a moment to reflect and be grateful for our incredible members. We've truly stayed stronger together and we are beyond proud of the successes and WINS you've achieved despite the many obstacles along the way.

Cindy and I both experienced the gap in the fitness industry. There only seemed to be the Community Centres, "Big Box" gyms and the growing boutique fitness shops that catered to the already fit. We are not saying these are "bad" in any way, just selective in their clientele. But what about the nearly 80% of us who aren't best served by these establishments. What excites us is that LIVE WELL addresses the need of that larger group of people who are most interested in their quality of life and looking for an effective, safe and sustainable way to achieve their health goals.

Exercise has been shown to increase our lifespan but most of us are not just concerned with living longer, we are concerned with living well during the years we are given.

It takes a while to feel the gains you get from exercising, and because these gain build slowly over time, sometimes they go unnoticed. Because we get healthier and fitter in small increments, it’s important to pay attention to how your activities of daily living are getting easier. Maybe you can walk a little farther without being tired. Maybe you can push the grocery cart at the store with greater ease. Maybe picking up a grandchild feels less strenuous eve...n though they are growing. These little improvements happen so gradually we often miss them. So this week, think back, what can you do now that you struggled to do before? Take pride in those small gains because, if you keep it up, they will build to something big with time. #motivationmonday #movementequalshealth #ultraprivategym #BeOurGuest #exerciseismedicine #livewell #medicalfitness
