Halo all, well wanted to take today to do a few things. First a friend told me to treat #mondays as the beginning. New week, new goals, fresh start, fresh you. So I’m going to do just that, I may not have slept last night but I did get some #meditation in this morning. Second, finish my birthday vacation at a place I should be in more often. And lastly, enjoying the new gym shirt given to me and man it gave me a strong feeling. Thanks to my best bro for a great birthday gift. Hope you all are having a great start to a new you. #nothingcankillthegrimace #gymbear #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well as a #birthday tradition, I go for a #workout just see how the body handles being a year older. This time for #tricepsday/#chestday I did 4 exercises, but just kept doing #supersets. Holy **** was I drained by the end lol. Just kept myself going and my heart pumping. Hope you all had as wonderful a day as I did. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well after an interesting #dream last night. I decided to put my 5am wake ups to use. Had a #homeworkout, and my morning #mantra exercise. I made the start of my day a lot better. For now hope you all crush your #goals, say and believe in your #mantra, and just all around #haveagreatday. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, first off a big #birthdayshoutout to One of my best friends for sharing awesome birthday memories with me. We celebrate both of ours around the same time. This was first time in ages we could do a mini #roadtrip anywhere so we hit the #scarboroughbluffs for some #picturetaking. Got some great pics, and funny story of us both fallen flat on our asses trying to climb a hill (she’s a much better climber than me 😊), but more importantly a great day out with a great friend. #happybirthday #birthdaygirl #birthdayboy #birthdaycelebration #birthdaymemories #beach #whataview #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well first in ages I did a #walk and #gym day. After my morning walk I made my way to my gym and did #bicepsday/#backday, after all that I love the near exhausted feeling when I got home. It was a great burn and a great way to start the weekend. Hope you’re all having as awesome a start to yours. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo and good morning. For this #morningwalk I wanna give two shoutouts to Tuyet for keeping me company on the walk over the phone. And to Elaine for the suggestion as to where to go. Such a beautiful walk this morning despite being just a tad cold 🥶. Still great way to start my #saturdaymorning. Hope you’re all having as awesome a start to the morning. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Happy #nationalcatday from my #prettykitty Samoth. She sends purrs to you all. #catsofinstagram #cat #kitty #cutecat #cutekitty #softkittywarmkitty #purrpurrpurr
Halo all, well feeling good today. On my #goldstarchallenge I got three today in the calorie department and procuring 122 active minutes over the course of the day. The #tricepsday/#chestday at the gym was the majority of that and damn did I feel good after this one. Not only a good workout but having no more capacity limit meant seeing more members at my gym so it was a nice feeling. Hope you’re all having a great day too. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, so for day one one the new challenge I started it with the morning walk. Picked a random area in the Burlington area but sadly didn’t get very many good pics. Oh well I mean I should just be happy I’m getting out for the #walk as it’s getting #colder outside. Still not too shabby for a start to the morning. Hope you all had a great #saturday today. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well I think I’ve finally found the inspiration needed for a good finish to the year. It’s an interesting #challenge my friend Tuyet came up with. A gold star challenge for #diet, #activities, and #focus. Earring a minimum 125 gold stars on my calendar by years end and the prize. Is in my friends words “investing in your health” if you’re all looking for something to try as well could be fun for you. Also doing it this way as I was unable to find a shop that sold a calendar and packs of gold stars :-s. Hope you’re all having a great and inspired weekend. Oh and the three I’ve earned today 10,000 steps, active minutes, and less than 2500 calories..I’m hungry 😭😭. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong

Morning all, starting the Saturday with a #walk that after #legday was a lot harder to do. But made it out and it’s done for the day. Will soon be heading off to the movies to enjoy this Saturday morning, and hope everyone else is having a great start to the weekend. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well another stumble in the week but still made it to a good place for me. Though I still struggle I won’t stop fighting on. Thanks to everyone whose still here cheering me on my victories and consoling during my defeats. Tonight I worked a solid #legday and #shoulderday and going to be a sore victory in the morning. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, finally got my fat ass to the gym this morning. Made it bright and early to #bicepsday/#backday. Did #supersets of each and kept walking around the area in between sets. Anything to keep my #heartrate going higher. Then in change room before shower. Had a few #breathingexercises to calm down. All in all had a fantastic #workout this morning. Hope the rest of the day goes as awesome. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well revisiting one of my favourite walk places. It was great to see so many people out and enjoying the park. And what’s not to enjoy? The scenery, the built in workout equipment, and the super friendly and super cute squirrels 🐿 🥰. I wish I was able to catch the photo in time. But one was attempt to climb up my leg when I first arrived. Was a great start to my Saturday and hope you all had as an awesome a day. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well what’s sore, drained, but got some #gains? That’s right this #polarbear, had a great #tricepday and #chestday at #onehealthclubs tonight. There’s only 92 days left in the year so back to work, if it’s #gym or a #walk either way something active must be done that day. So back to great tests and trials for me. Hope you’re all having a great start to the #weekend #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Bittersweet last night, had the last guys night of the 4 of us. Our friend Marc (grey sleeves) is moving across the country this Saturday. Though for the price he got the house for I can’t blame him. So we all went out for our favourite Korean bbq place to have a send off meal. Hoping for good things for him on his next step in life.
Halo all, well after my #morningwalk I made my way to the glorious #houseofgains @onehealthclubs. Did my #bicepday and #chestday routine and what a savage #heartrate I had going. Great burn as I was super setting every two exercises with 7 sets of each. I’m now officially pooped for the day even rescheduled my #blooddonation till next week I’m that #drained. Going to head home and catch some rest. Hope everyone is having a great #saturday. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, got a lovely #walk in for early morning. Had a little bit of a snag during it though. Had a huge coughing fit again. Not liking this as it seems to be happening for frequently. Taking a friends advice and going to start drinking water during the walk and not just before and after. But at least a good walk was had. Now onward to the gym after this. Hope you’re all having a great weekend. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well started the day just after 6 this morning in One Health Club Oakville. Decided to mix up a bit and did for the combo #tricepday and #backday. Was pushing myself to get my heart really going this morning…both for the sake of #workout and #wakingup 😂. Hope you’re all having as great a start to the day as I did. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well only way I like to start Saturday is my #morningwalk. Now come winter that’ll probably have to change. But for time being I’m going to have to go back to gym/home workout but going to enjoy the #outside for the time being. Love this time of morning as far as picturing taking cause you have the chance to get such great shots. When I’m not chatting on the walks I take time to #reflect and just get lost in my thoughts. Truthfully I don’t like what I think somedays. Others I wish I had a solution to my thought process. But maybe someday I’ll get a clue, till then hope you’re all having a great start to the weekend. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
A #randomthought for the day. Also a safety tip as well. Hope you’re all having a a great #friyay and all around great day. #thoughtoftheday #randomness #amusing #makesyouthink #themoreyouknow #dailysteps #walk #goodadvice #knowingishalfthebattle #lols #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well normally I like to add the workout stats with my post. Sadly though my #fitbit has crapped out but thankfully have a new one to set up tomorrow. So will be back on to the full swing of my #workoutroutine, my #walks, and trying to complete this new checklist daily. Truth be told it’s hard to get the veggies/fruits in but my dietary choices have always been my kryptonite. So have to really put work into them. Starting the day with meditation was a nice new way to start though. Tonight’s #bicepday/#backday was a great sweat. Though iffy on my shrugs exercise as it really feels off and I’m doing it wrong (any tips welcome). Hope you’re all having a great week. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, this has been a long while since I’ve done a walk post. I’ve been to #spencersmithpark before but I always find something new to look at and take pics of. Shout out to Tuyet for helping grab some of my pics today. Was nice to be on my feet and out site seeing something semi local. Hope you’re all having a great start to the #weekend. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
I LOGGED in a walk, trying to STICK to my walks…I think these puns have BRANCHED out far enough lol. #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong #nothingcankillthegrimace
Halo all, well can honestly say this is a first in ages. Started my day @onehealthclubs just after 6, and man I’m feeling good. Great was to start the #workweek and the day in general. Started with my #tricepday/#chestday workout and it was a great burn today as it was predominately spent in the fat burn zone. Let’s all have as a great a start to the week. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Though tonight’s #tricepday #chestday combo was a great one. I feel the good kind of tired from tonight and sore. I’m going to be honest I’m very disappointed in myself for this month. This hasn’t been a good month in regards to both walk and gym. I’ve passed “fallen off the wagon” I’m now tumbling down a cliff. All I can do though is just force myself forward and get back on the trail. Hope you’re all having a great week. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
Halo all, well great way to end the week. Rocking a #bicepday/#backday combo and got to say had a great rhythm and control on this one. Though to be fair (and sorry if this sounds like I’m bragging) bicep workouts are usually the ones I have best movement and form of. Still working on getting back into my full groove but slow and steady as they say. Hope you all had a great finish to the weekend too. #weightlossjourney #weightlossmotivation #strengthtraining #cardio #fatburn #promisetomyself #swoleisthegoal #backupyourbullshit #gymmotivation #seeitthrough #betteringmyself #progressnotperfection #happyplace #feelingstronger #shaketheblues #findyourcenter #onehealthclubs #canadastrongman #polarbearstrong #baldandstrong
