Personal Training

Personal training brings invaluable benefits, offering tailored workout plans, expert guidance, and motivation. A personal trainer ensures proper form, minimizes injury risks, and maximizes efficiency. This individualized approach not only accelerates results but also provides a deeper understanding of your body, making the gym experience a more rewarding and efficient journey to optimal health.

In addition to customized workouts and expert guidance, personal training at the gym provides crucial mental health benefits, fostering stress reduction, mood improvement, and overall well-being through regular exercise and supportive encouragement.

Jeff Virgo served for 5 years in the Canadian Armed Forces with the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI) before a spinal cord injury left him paralyzed from the waist down. Through intense rehabilitation, he regained the ability to walk.

Post-injury, Jeff has been a Torch Barrier for the Parapan American Games, competed in two Invictus Games (2014, 2016), and raced sprint kayaks. He also worked as a Program Manager for a multi-sports camp in Quebec, coaching soccer and advocating for accessibility and active living.

As a fitness instructor and personal trainer at Lakeshore Recreation, Jeff's persistence, positivity, and humor have made him popular with members.

Lisa has been physically active her whole life, but it wasn’t until joining Lakeshore Recreation in 2022 and incorporating strength training that she reached her fittest self. Inspired by her transformation, she became a certified personal trainer to help others experience the benefits of resistance training.

Lisa believes in the deeper purpose of strength, beyond lifting heavy weights—it's about transforming your body, mind, and soul. Her passion is guiding others to improve their fitness in simple, realistic ways and discover what their bodies are truly capable of with hard work.

When not lifting weights, Lisa teaches spin or Pilates classes.
