🌟 OCTOBER COMMITMENT CLUB! 🌟

28 members. 12+ workouts.

Our Commitment Club recognizes members who show up for at least 12 classes in a month. That’s roughly 3 workouts a week!

Why does that matter?

Because consistency is where the magic happens! Regular exercise helps build strength, improve heart health, support mental well-being and create habits that last.

12 workouts a month = 144 workouts a year! Imagine what that kind of commitment can do for your health. 🙌

A special shoutout to Katelyn Ross, who led October with an incredible 32 workouts …20 weeksks pregnant!

And congratulations to every single member who made the list! We went from 16 members in September to 28 in October! That’s something worth celebrating!

A special shout out to those open gym members who come consistently ..without checking in 🫣 we see you, we are cheering for you.

Remember, it’s not about being the strongest, the fastest or the fittest person in the room.

It’s about showing up for YOURSELF, even on the days you don’t feel like it.

Here’s to another month of showing up, getting stronger and making our health a priority. 🌿

🥊🩷 WOW, LADIES! WE ARE OFFICIALLY FULL!

In such a short amount of time, all 15 spots for our Women’s Only Boxing Class have been filled!

The response has been incredible, and it speaks volumes about the strength of the women in our community and the importance of creating spaces where women can feel safe, supported, and empowered. 🩷

WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING NAMES FOR OUR WAITLIST!

If you missed registration but would still like to attend, please email [email protected] to have your name added.

‼️ IMPORTANT FOR THOSE REGISTERED:

If you’ve secured a spot but are no longer able to attend, please let us know as soon as possible so we can offer your place to another woman on our waitlist.

Our goal was never just to host a boxing class. It was to bring women together, remind them of their strength, and show them that they have a community standing behind them.

Thank you for showing up for yourselves and for one another.

There is something incredibly powerful about women supporting women. 🩷

🏒💪 A SMALL-TOWN HERO INSPIRING THE NEXT GENERATION! ❤️

784 kilometres. Over $60,000 raised. Hundreds of people lining the streets to welcome him home.

What Landon has accomplished is nothing short of incredible. He’s shown our entire community what determination, perseverance, and a whole lot of heart can achieve.

A true small-town hero! ❤️

And tonight Landon stopped by Because Health to spend some time with our young hockey athletes during their strength and conditioning session!

Now, if you know Landon, you know he wasn’t planning on just watching. 😂 He was more than ready to jump in and train alongside the boys, but between his trainer and myself, we made it VERY clear that after running 784 kilometres, he had earned himself a seat on the sidelines!

We’ve recently started working with a group of young hockey players a couple of times a week, focusing on strength, speed, agility, conditioning, and building confidence both on and off the ice.

The turnout has been incredible, the kids are loving it, and watching these young athletes show up, put in the work, and push themselves each session has been so rewarding.

But tonight was a little extra special.

These kids got to spend time with someone who has just shown our entire community that you don’t have to come from somewhere big to do something extraordinary.

Landon is living proof that hard work, determination, and believing in something bigger than yourself can take you places you never imagined.

And that’s exactly the kind of example we want our young athletes to have.

Because at the end of the day, we’re not just trying to build stronger, faster hockey players. We’re trying to help build confident, hardworking, resilient young people who understand the importance of showing up for themselves and for others.

That’s what youth sports should be about.

Landon, thank you for stopping in tonight. Congratulations on an unbelievable accomplishment, and please, for the love of everything, REST THOSE LEGS! 😂❤️

We’re so proud of you, proud of these young athletes, and proud to be part of a small community with such a big heart.

🥊 FOR THE WOMEN IN OUR COMMUNITY. 🖤

Sometimes, strength isn’t about how much weight you can lift or how hard you can hit. Sometimes, it’s about finding your confidence, reclaiming your power, and knowing you’re not alone.

In light of recent events that have deeply affected women in our community, Because Health wants to create a space where women can come together, feel supported, and find strength in one another.

WOMEN’S ONLY BOXING CLASS 🥊

📅 Sunday, October 25th

⏰ 4:30–6:00 PM

📍 Because Health

🖤 Completely FREE

This class will be led by a woman, for women. Our facility will be closed to everyone else during this time to provide a private, comfortable, and supportive environment.

No boxing experience is necessary. Come as you are.

We have just 15 spaces available.

📩 To reserve your spot, email [email protected].

There is no expectation to share your story, explain why you’re attending, or be anything other than yourself.

You deserve to feel safe. You deserve to feel strong. And you deserve a community that stands beside you.

Because strength is more than physical. 🖤

Shout out to our members who stepped out of their comfort zone yesterday morning & tackled an Engine Room competition!!

This is a new style of training we have all been falling in love with. Even though the competition itself stays the same (see photo below), the training varies every class.

People are falling in love with this because:

• it is making everyday fitness into a sport again

• there is no technical movements you have to learn & train for

• it gives you something to train towards — a goal to strive for

• it is for all fitness levels

To name a few perks.

Our athletes have been training behind the scenes for a couple month through our Engine Room classes & yesterday they were able to prove to themselves that the hard work paid off.

Proud of you all

Shoot us an email if you’re interested in dropping in to one of our classes to see what the hype is all about.

Some accomplishments deserve more recognition than they receive.

This past weekend, one of our very own competed at the Crucible Crunch CrossFit competition in Virginia.

And I want to take a minute to explain why this is such a big deal.

For those outside the CrossFit community, it’s difficult to understand just how demanding this sport really is. These athletes aren’t just strong. They’re incredibly conditioned, skilled in gymnastics, explosive, powerful, and mentally tough. They’re expected to excel at things that most athletes spend their entire careers specializing in individually.

And the athletes competing at this level? They’re on another level entirely.

This was Maguire’s first major competition.

After years of training, countless hours spent in the gym, and more sacrifices than most people will ever see, he stepped onto a competition floor alongside some of the top athletes in the sport.

And he held his own.

I want people to really understand what that means.

He didn’t get there overnight. He didn’t get there by luck. He got there through years of consistency, discipline, determination, and an incredible amount of hard work.

And perhaps the most impressive part is that he’s done all of this while continuing to coach, encourage, and invest in the success of other athletes.

Sometimes I think we become so accustomed to seeing someone do extraordinary things that we forget just how extraordinary they actually are.

We see the heavy lifts. We see the workouts. We see the strength and endurance. But we don’t always see the sacrifices, the exhaustion, the setbacks, or the days when showing up takes everything you’ve got.

And over time, the recognition for that kind of dedication can get lost.

But it shouldn’t.

Because there’s something incredibly special about watching someone who has quietly put in the work for years finally have the opportunity to stand among some of the best in their sport and prove they deserve to be there.

This weekend wasn’t just about a competition or a leaderboard.

It was about years of hard work coming together in one moment.

And while the results of a competition will always matter to an athlete, I hope he knows that what he’s accomplished goes so much further than a placement.

He’s shown our members, our younger athletes, and our community what dedication really looks like.

You don’t have to understand CrossFit to understand how remarkable that is.

We are so incredibly proud of you. Not just for how you performed this weekend, but for the years of work nobody was applauding.

You earned your place on that floor.

And I hope you know just how big of a deal that really is. ❤️🔥

From all of us at Because Health — congratulations. You deserve every bit of this recognition.

The athlete that used to park in front of the doors of my garage so I couldn’t make her run for a warm up just did her first half marathon 🏃‍♀️

Naomie put down the barbell & has been behind the scenes training for the Harvest Valley Marathon, and we couldn’t be more proud of her!

I’ve loved watching you grow into the athlete you are today, and can’t wait to see what challenge you put in front of you next. ♥️

✨One of our own, Coach
Maguire is spending his thankgiving weekend (his favourite weekend) competing at the 2026 Crash Crucible in South Carolina!!

This is a high-level functional fitness competition that brings together some seriously talented athletes to test their strength, endurance, skill, and grit.

The hours spent in the gym, time away from family & the insane dedication you have put in these last few years is being displayed and we cannot be more proud of you, Maugs!

Our small community sure does deliver some incredible athletes with undeniable grit & determination.

You have us all back home rooting loud for you — yelling at you to pick up the f*cking wallball as we watch online 🤣🫣

Let’s show some love as Coach Maguire tackles 7 workouts the next 3 days next to some of the top athletes in North America. 👏🏼 👇
