MBHL Youth Ball Hockey League at Le Club West Island

leclubwestisland — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 20:55:20 +0000

Due to high demand the Montreal Ball Hockey League will be launching its inaugural Youth Ball Hockey League this spring. Our league has been around for 20 years and is one of Canada’s largest recreational ball hockey leagues, and is the largest in Quebec. We look forward to providing your child a great ball hockey experience.

Thanks to NHL stars like Alex Burrows of the Vancouver Canucks, ball hockey has taken off in Canada! Many players today play the sport to improve their endurance, hand/eye coordination, and their speed. But it’s also a great way to have fun with friends.

The MBHL is committed to providing a premier ball hockey experience by creating a safe and fun sporting environment. We look forward to having you and your child join us this Spring!

Please find attached the information pertaining to the upcoming season, including; age brackets, available nights, and pricing. Click here for more info in English or French.

Please feel free to forward this message to other parents. If you are interested in registering your child, please contact Sean Guerriero at (514) 966-3561 or by email: info@mbhl.ca

Choosing the Right Personal Trainer

leclubwestisland — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 19:10:56 +0000

If you want to lose weight, get healthy and/or build muscle; hiring a personal trainer can be a step in the right direction. A good trainer can help you set up a program that meets your goals and teach you the best way to exercise. Finding and choosing a trainer can be a little confusing and, for some, intimidating. It’s not easy asking for help, but going in with more knowledge about how personal training works can make it a little easier.

What is a personal trainer?
A personal trainer should be, at the least, educated and certified through a reputable fitness organization (see below). This person’s job is to assess your fitness level, figure out what your goals are (or help you set goals) set up a program and keep you motivated. He or she will push you past your comfort level – something difficult to do on your own. A trainer also provides:

Guidance on reaching your goals;
Education about strength training, cardio and basic nutrition;
A reason to show up at the gym each week;
Accountability; and,
Ways to help track your progress.

What is a session like?
Each session usually lasts about an hour. The first meeting is devoted to assessing fitness level, postural assessment, body measurements, exercise and health history and goals. Depending on your goals, be prepared to step on a scale, have some body measurements taken and answer specific questions about your goals. After that, you’ll spend each session doing some combination of cardio, weight training, flexibility or other activities depending on what your goals are. Your trainer will show you how to do the exercises, help you figure out how much weight to use and give you pointers for getting the most out of each exercise.

If you need a little “push” to help stay accountable to your health and fitness goals, Le Club West Island offers one-on-one and small-group private sessions. Our certified personal trainers help you launch a smart exercise program, move beyond stubborn plateaus, break out of fitness ruts and reenergize your workout. Along the way, they’ll challenge you, change your outlook and build your confidence, with results that extend far beyond the mirror. Please contact Carole Cousineau at (514) 695-8851 ext.203 or by email at carole@leclubwestisland.com to book your session with a trainer today!
