A little reminder that exercise doesn’t have to be complicated

Walking is free, accessible, and a great way to start adding more movement to your day

Grab a friend, bring the dog, find a trail you enjoy and get outside while the sun is still shining!

You don’t have to start with the “perfect” workout. Start with something you enjoy and appreciate nature.

You may know me as a Personal Trainer… but now I’m also a CSEP Certified Exercise Physiologist!

So what does that actually mean for you?

My additional training as a CEP allows me to take a more individualized approach to exercise by considering your current abilities, limitations, fitness level and goals when developing your program.

This can be especially helpful if you:

✔️ Are managing a chronic health condition
✔️ Are returning to exercise after an injury or period of inactivity
✔️ Want to improve your strength, mobility or cardiovascular fitness
✔️ Want to maintain strength, balance and independence as you age
✔️ Aren’t sure how to exercise safely or where to start

I love my job because I can help you understand your body, build confidence and create a plan that actually fits you💙

Hi everyone!!

The ladies in the group have already noticed huge improvements and I’m so proud😊

Huge life update!!

This summer has been SO eventful

First, I FINALLY graduated with my bachelors in kinesiology!🎓took a little longer switching my degree and working full time while building a business. BUT I did it!

I passed my CSEP-CEP exams and am officially a Certified Exercise Physiologist🥳being a CEP opens up my range of who I can help and I’m so excited to continue growing my practice and reaching even more people.

And then… while travelling in Europe this month I got engaged!!🥰🥰 was such a perfect moment on the Eiffel Tower. He’s pretty amazing🥺

Between finishing full time studying, my best friend’s wedding, celebrating passing and travelling, this summer has been the best one yet.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way and my clients for cheering me on just as much as I’ve cheered them on🥰 I’m so incredibly grateful for all of you💕

Here’s to new adventures and this next chapter🥂🤗

Hi everyone! I wanted to share something new I’m offering😊

As a personal trainer, I’ve been working with more adults 60+ who want to stay active, improve balance and feel more confident!

I’d love to help more people because activity and stability at older ages holds a special place in my heart.

So I’m offering a simple fitness and mobility assessment that addresses things like:
- Strength
- Balance (fall risk)
- Flexibility/Mobility
- Endurance

It’s very low pressure and done at your own pace. After you get a clear breakdown of your results and some things to work on at home!

This could be helpful for you or a loved one who are:
- Feeling less steady on their feet
- Wanting to stay independent longer
- Not sure where to start with exercise

I’m located in Cloverdale, 10 mins from Willowbrook Mall and currently offering this for $45 as an intro rate.

If you’d like to book for you or a loved one the form is https://maryelisapetersen.wixforms.com/f/7454009578884171224

Feel free to message me if you have any questions or want more info. I’m happy to chat!

My client Christina, who is 63, is SO inspiring! When she came to me 18 months ago she thought she was “too old” for all those barbell exercises.

Now she’s deadlifting 150lbs!!💪🏻 She also barbell squats, bench presses and gets stronger every week which she never thought would be possible due to her age.

Christina came to me with mobility issues from frozen shoulder and back pain which was mainly due to inactivity. With proper mobility and strengthening, a couple months later we were able to make her stronger and more confident in her body each week!

Age is NOT a barrier your goals.
Whether you want to keep up with your grandkids, prevent falls or be stronger than you’ve ever been, it’s possible with the right program and consistency.

Christina says “I want every 60 year old to know that they need to be doing this, because I feel great! Mary taught me I don’t have to live in pain because I’m getting older.”

If you’re 60+ and want to feel more confident, stronger and steadier send me a message I’d love to help😊

I’m beyond proud to say I trained Emi along her pregnancy for 7 months🥰this woman was so dedicated and put in her all even 5 days before her delivery! She would’ve done a session the morning of if she could🤣her strength and determination was truly inspiring to so many around her.

Physical activity is so important during pregnancy to help with the aches and pains, prevents excessive weight gain, improved mental health, better sleep and even helps delivery time!

Emi was a champ and gave it her all💪🏻 but doing whatever you can during those 9 months will make such a difference pre and post natal. Take care of yourself when you’re creating life and your body is going through so much. Don’t put yourself on the back burner!
