Hey Ladies,
My name is Megan and I am incredibly excited to be the Booty Camp Instructor for the amazing Kingston, Ontario location!!! I am a former recruit of Booty Camp fitness, and I loved the experience, the results and of course the recruits so much that I just knew I had to get involved as an instructor. I am Can-Fit Pro certified as a personal trainer, and an enthused reader of any material about nutrition, strength and conditioning.
I first joined Booty Camp in August 2010 when my sister, Erin O’Reilly, also a Booty Camp Instructor, convinced me to get back into shape when my son was only 6 weeks old. I was completely nervous before my first workout. I thought I would never be able to keep up with everyone. I convinced myself to go and have fun and I am so extremely happy I did! All the women at the camp were at different levels of fitness, and Booty Camp offered us variations of each drill to vary the level of difficulty to match each individuals needs. Everyone always gets a really great and challenging workout no matter your fitness level.
At first I was just along for the ride, having fun and meeting lots of incredible women. After the first four weeks, I realized that I was actually getting into great shape as well! It was so motivating and encouraging that I fixed up my nutrition and stayed faithful to my workouts. Now my son is 8 months old and I am in the best shape of my life, all thanks to Booty Camp! After my first 4 weeks of camp, I knew I had to take my newfound love for fitness to the next level and become an instructor.
For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to help women feel confident, motivated and beautiful inside and out. Women should not have to listen to what the media tell us fitness and beauty looks like. Becoming an instructor in women’s group fitness is my way of helping women feel beautiful and confident in themselves, and to feel that they are strong, powerful individuals.
If I can help recruits get in better shape, have a ton of fun, and feel confident and beautiful about herself, then I have achieved my goal and done my job.
My philosophy on fitness is to work hard but have fun. I very much have the attitude of “everything in moderation”. To be healthy, I believe everyone should be active on a daily basis in whatever way is most enjoyable to you, eat healthy and respect your body, but treat yourself. You deserve it! Most importantly, don’t stress about it. Stop and smell the roses! Enjoy life!
So many women feel that being fit and active is such a complicated ordeal that they stress their way to their goals, or they can give up because it just isn’t worth it. Being fit and healthy does not have to be complicated. Make healthy daily fitness choices like taking the stairs, or go for a walk after dinner. Make healthy food choices such as fresh organic and local produce and meats, and be creative with your meals. Keep it simple and you will reach your goals.
It is important to take care of yourself in all dimensions; body, mind and spirit. Exercise is not usually a priority for many busy women, and mind and spirit can be even less of a priority. There are many stresses in every day life. It is important to take the time to exercise, relax and rejuvenate.
My days are filled with being a proud stay at home mom for my beautiful baby boy, Liam, and spending time with my husband, Stephane. All three of us are very active in our daily lives. We love to spend time snowshoeing, skiing, hiking, practicing yoga and meditation and traveling. My husband and I are always reinventing ourselves physically and mentally by experimenting with nutrition, and our fitness goals.
