Ambi Fit Inc.

Ambi Fit Inc. Personal Trainer and Running Coach who specializes in Weight Loss, Strength, Hypertrophy, Conditioning. I didn’t grow up in a fitness-focused household.

By the time I was 18, I was considered overweight. I struggled with simple things like walking up stairs without losing my breath, lived on junk food, and dealt with constant low back pain—all signs that my health needed a serious change. Over the past 15+ years, my journey has had its ups and downs. My weight, strength, and conditioning have all evolved depending on the goals I set at different times. What’s remained consistent is my commitment to growth—through strength training, running, hiking, smarter food choices, and ongoing education. My transformation wasn’t a “30-day quick fix.” It was built on consistency, self-compassion, and long-term habits. Today, I’m proud to be both a Certified Personal Trainer and a Running Coach, helping others create lasting changes in their health and fitness. For the past 7+ years, I’ve worked with clients ranging in age from 16 to 72—each with unique goals like fat loss, strength building, running performance, pain reduction, or simply moving better in everyday life. I truly believe there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to fitness. Everyone’s journey is different—and that’s what makes it powerful. With patience, the right plan, and a supportive coach, you can achieve lasting, meaningful change. I’m here to guide, support, and challenge you every step of the way. Let’s build the foundation together—and make progress that lasts.

My Weight Loss Journey — Before Running & With Running

When I was in Tokyo in November 2025, I was around 202 lbs.

When I came back from Japan, I started dealing with a lot of stomach and acidity issues that felt similar to gastritis.

For the next few months, eating became pretty basic.

It wasn't some weight-loss strategy I decided to follow. At that point, I was just trying to eat foods that wouldn't irritate my stomach while still getting enough protein and continuing to train.

It wasn't until around late February 2026 that I finally started feeling like my stomach was getting back to normal and I could slowly become more flexible with what I ate again.

My training was still focused on lifting, and I had become extremely consistent with my nutrition.

By the time I started running again in April, I had already lost a significant amount of weight and inches off my waist.

I started Running Again in April and gradually went from getting my running fitness back to training for my half marathon.

As my running volume increased, my nutrition had to change with it.

For most of my half marathon training, I was eating around maintenance calories, and on my longer-distance days I would actually put myself into a calorie surplus to make sure I was fueling and recovering from the amount of running I was doing. And I still ate out here and there.

My lifting eventually dropped down to maintenance as running became the priority, but I continued getting leaner throughout the process.

From around 202 lbs in November to the low 170s, with my lowest weigh-in just under 170 lbs.

My waist went from around 36 inches to 30¼ inches — almost 6 inches off my waist.

Before running: nutrition and lifting were my focus.

During half marathon training: I ate more, fueled my training, maintained some strength work and let running take priority.

Two different phases required two different approaches.

And after everything I went through with my stomach, I also know something about myself:

If I ever need to get back to that level of discipline again, I know I can do it.

Half Marathon Done 👟 (Servus Edmonton Marathon)

Started running again on April 4th and Today was the end result of the last 4+ months of work. My Last Half Marathon was 2018!

My goal going into this training was to run a sub 2 hour half marathon.

Official time was 2:00:51.
I'll Consider that a GOAL ACHIEVED!

My watch had me running 21.96KM in 2:00:58, with my 21.1KM around 1:56:26.

This training block taught me a lot.

When I first started back in April, I wasn't worried about pace. I was running mostly based on RPE and slowly building my distance and volume.

Once I knew I could run the distance, my mindset changed.

July became more about how fast can I run it.

I started focusing more on my long run pace, 5K/10K speed work and intervals while keeping my lifting at maintenance.

There were a lot of adjustments along the way.

Rain. Heat. GI issues. Fatigue. Runs that felt amazing and runs that didn't.

It was a lot that worked together for ME:

The long runs.
The speed work.
The intervals.
The hills.
The recovery runs.
The strength training.
The recovery.

And just CONSISTENTLY showing up for months.

Now for a couple days rest. Might do 1 more Race before switching up my Training💪

Client Spotlight

Over the past 8 years, I've had some of my cousins and siblings start their own fitness journeys. Some were already working out before I became a trainer, while others started during my time as a trainer.

gurneer ⭒˚.⋆ was one of them.

She's trained with me when she was a teenager but took few years off. But her journey changed in 2024 when she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease.

She was encouraged to work on her nutrition and fitness as part of taking better care of her health.

At the time, I reached out to PJ 🦋 , who could help her with more then I can and guide her with the nutrition side, while I continued helping her with her training.

It hasn't always been easy.

There have been times where she's been consistent in the gym and other times where flare-ups have made training much harder.

We've had to learn when she can push herself, when we need to modify things, and when her body simply needs a break.

One of our biggest focuses has been consistency — but understanding that consistency doesn't always look the same for everyone.

Proud of you Cuz!

My Long Run Journey 👟

Long runs began all the way back in April. Goal was just to Build my Base and get Comfortable covering long distances.

Most of my Runs were guided by RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) rather than pace.

Once I became confident that I could cover the distance, my focus began to shift.

Around July, I began putting more attention into the pace of my long runs.

Instead of just finishing the distance, I started working on maintaining a stronger pace.

For me, long runs help me:

Build endurance.
Improve aerobic fitness.
Practice pacing.
Build confidence for race day.

As my race day approaches, I got 1 more long distance run left before I began my Taper week.

Shoulder Maintenance for Running 👟💪

As my speed work has increased over the past few weeks, I've noticed my right shoulder starting to get irritated during faster arm swings. It's something I've experienced before. An old injury of mine.

Instead of ignoring it, I'm adding a little more shoulder work into my maintenance lifting.

One exercise I'm including is the single-arm kettlebell underhand press.

For me, it helps challenge:

Shoulder stability
Rotator cuff control
Single-arm strength
Upper body control

When we run faster, our arm swing becomes quicker and more forceful. That places greater demands on the muscles around the shoulder to control each stride.

Prep work Continues until Servus Edmonton Marathon (Half-Marathon)

Core Training & Running 👟

25 Days until Servus Edmonton Marathon (Half Marathon)

Still doing Resistance Training 1-2 Times a week.

Core training is a must!

It can help:

Improve stability while running.

Transfer force between my upper and lower body.

Maintain good running mechanics as fatigue starts to build.

Running has been the main priority this Month and will be until Race Day, but Resistance Training still plays a role.

My Interval Journey 👟

Intervals are my Toughest Type of Run to do.

Right now, my workout is: 1 km repeats @ RPE 9 with a 2-minute walk recovery between each repeat.

For me, intervals aren't just about trying to run faster.

They help me:

Learn to apply more force into the ground with each stride.

Improve my running mechanics at faster speeds.

Build confidence running at higher intensities. Especially since, I have a history of Quad Cramps when I fatigue.

The walk recovery gives me just enough time to recover so I can maintain the quality of each repeat instead of fading as the workout goes on.

That doesn't mean every run should be an interval session.

I still include:
Long runs
Recovery runs
Medium runs
Hill runs
Strength training

Every workout has a purpose, and Intervals are just one Type of Training that I am doing before my Servus Edmonton Marathon (Half- Marathon)

My 10KM Journey 👟

Something I was aiming for in the beginning of May, was to see if I can do 10KM under an Hour. Couple months later, now I know I can. In fact, now I want to see if now if I can do it in 50 minutes!!

My 10 km runs have helped me:

Build endurance.
Spend more time on my feet.
Learn to pace myself.
Build confidence over longer distances.

As I get closer to the Servus Edmonton Half Marathon, I'm becoming more confident that I can cover the distance.

Now the focus shifts to improving my pace over my longer runs while continuing to stay healthy.

My goal is to work towards a sub-2-hour half marathon.
