Mobility work might not be the most exciting part of training, and judging these faces, it’s definitely not the most comfortable 🤣

But there’s a reason why you should make time for that pain.

Mobility isn’t just about being more flexible.

It’s about giving your joints the ability to move freely through their full range of motion without pain or impingement.

Better mobility can help you move more efficiently, improve the quality of your training, recover better between sessions, and reduce some of the stiffness that comes from training hard, sitting all day, or simply getting older.

And just like strength and conditioning, it’s something that needs to be worked on consistently.

I recommend a minimum of 5 minutes of mobility work every day.

A few intentional minutes spent working on the areas that need it most can make a massive difference.

We had another full Mobility Session this weekend, and it’s been awesome hearing how much better people are feeling after adding mobility work into their training.

There are a lot of new faces around here lately, so we figured it was time for a reintroduction.

We are Cory & Erin, owners of Axe Fitness. 🪓

Erin grew up in Victoria with her parents and brother, playing soccer and baseball throughout her youth.

She graduated from UVic with a degree in Health Information Science and eventually moved to Alberta to work in healthcare.

Cory grew up in Alberta with his mom and three younger brothers, spent 13 years working on his aunt and uncle’s farm, and earned his Kinesiology degree from the University of Lethbridge before becoming a trainer.

And that’s where our paths crossed.

We met at a Fit Body Boot Camp in Cochrane, Alberta.

Cory was the coach, Erin was the client, and yes, our relationship was technically a breach of Cory’s employment contract 😂

Contract technicalities aside, together we made the decision to build a gym and community of our own.

So in 2018, we packed up and moved to BC with a bigger goal than simply opening a gym.

We wanted to build a community where people could surround themselves with other adults who shared a growth mindset, wanted to keep improving, become the best versions of themselves, challenge one another to be better, and elevate the standard for everyone around them.

Because as adults, it can be easy to get complacent and settle for mediocrity, and it isn’t always easy to find other people who want more for themselves. We wanted to create a place where those people could find each other.

That was our why then, and it’s still our why today.

That gym started as Coquitlam Fit Body Boot Camp and eventually became what you know today as Axe Fitness. 🪓

Health and fitness have always been a huge part of our lives. We believe that exercise and nutrition can positively impact every area of your life, and we work hard to practice what we preach. We’re constantly working to learn, improve, and become better versions of ourselves, and our goal is to help the people around us do the same.

If you’re new here, welcome to Axe. We’re glad you found us. ❤️

Even we have days when we don’t want to workout.

And just because we own a gym, it doesn’t mean that we want to workout all day, every day.

Do we love working out?

Hell yeah!

Just not all the time.

But the most important thing is that you are consistent and that you get your workouts in, regardless of how you are feeling.

So, if you are out there and not wanting to go to the gym today, know you aren’t alone.

But get your ass to the gym anyway.

You will feel better after.

Our first ever session had 1 person.

Across 3 sessions that day, we had 8 people total.

And to us, that was a win. We were business owners, and we were elated.

7 years later we have:

🪓 Gone from Erin working a full time job all day, then coming to the gym in the evening, and Cory working for over a year and a half for free, to a team to 12

🪓 Exited the franchise we originally started our business as and rebranded to our own business, Axe Fitness

🪓 Built Axe Fitness from the ground up

🪓 Moved into our new facility just 3 months ago.

Some days, it feels like we’re not moving fast enough.

But then we look back.

And we realize just how far we’ve come.

Progress doesn’t always feel like progress when you’re in it.

So if you’re somewhere in your “1 person” season right now, keep going.

Trust the process and keep showing up.

Because you never know what your “here” will look like 7 years from now.

We are a long ways from where we want to be, but damn proud of the progress we have made.

We take a lot of pride in the product we provide to our members.

That means holding a high standard for everything, including cleanliness.

Because when you walk into the gym, you deserve a space that’s clean, cared for, and ready for you to put in the work.

Tired of dirty gyms?

Come experience what we believe is the cleanest gym in the Lower Mainland.

Do the work. Be the standard. 🪓

6 Tips for a strong sled pull.

🪓 Hinge at the hips and simulate an RDL motion

🪓 Keep your arms straight to prevent your biceps from being overworked

🪓 Keep your hands together for a stronger and more stable grip

🪓 Lean back, fall back - let gravity do the work. Allow the weight of your body to pull the sled instead of using brute force

🪓 Pull at the end to maximize the distance pulled on every rep

🪓 Coil your rope like an extension cord or a garden hose and keep a neat pile to avoid creating a tripping hazard

Weight of sled used in these videos was the women’s pro/mixed doubles weight of 227 lbs.

I would not get out of bed this early for any other job.

But the fact that people are getting up early to do their workouts before they go to work, and they are choosing to do so with our business is all the motivation I need to get up, regardless of how I’m feeling.

The only reason why I get my ass out of bed at 3:50am is because I know people are going to be showing up for their early morning workouts and depending on me to be there.

Every day the Axe Fitness community inspires me to be better, and for that I am grateful.
