Good flat ride today after a few hill workouts! Need my DPA as much as you need your DPA! #HearComesTheSun @WHBallardnews #StayActiveHWDSB

My @WHBallardnews friends! We need to remember that exercise anywhere is important but if we can do that exercise outdoors, it will bring a bigger smile to your heart, mind and soul! Go outside and Be Safe! 🌞 #StayActiveHWDSB (@BelievePHQ)

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads! I was able sneak in a beautiful ride...hope you were able to sneak in some DPA before your Father’s Day celebrations! 😉

What a fantastic program to be a part of! I will always remember the amazing staff and the incredible basketball players I was able to coach! #trytooutshootthecoach 😉 Thanks for letting me be a part of this @coachbaillie #rariddellbballacademy

There is a kid in everyone. Staying active with your kids shows them that there is no age limit to jumping around and being silly. Being active doesn’t have to be a chore! #trampolinejumpingcanbetiring #StayActiveHWDSB

It’s because when I ride, I look around and see! I appreciate the earth’s magnificence And everything around me! So when I coast the winding roads, Even the ones less traveled, I can’t wait for my next ride To see more beauty unraveled!

Needed a mental getaway! Using my bike as a tool to help see the countryside and clear my mind has becoming invaluable. Go for a ride @WHBallardnews and you’ll be amazed what you’ll see in the places you’ve never been! Always Be Safe! #StayActiveHWDSB

@WHBallardnews let’s get your HR ⬆️ Going from left to right, start with a march, to a reverse lunge and then a leg raise. Take a 20 sec break and do the next series of exercises..20 sec break and then do the last series! Try it once...then try it again Be Safe! #StayActiveHWDSB

Daily Physical Activity is important to everyone’s MENTAL well-being as well...because HER mental well-being is VERY important and will affect MY mental well-being #needherlovedandhappy Ally and I went on a bike ride for our DPA on this ☀️ day! @WHBallardnews #StayActiveHWDSB

Thanks @coachbaillie Racism has absolutely no place in our world. I 100% pledge to continue to oppose and expose racism and hate through my words but more importantly through my actions. I know that you will join me! @CoachVermeer @jrichea @HammerRopes @DrewSmillie

@WHBallardnews @HWDSB_athletics @HammerRopes keep #BlackandYellow #BallardSpirit going this week! I started in #plank position and did a pushups at #BlackandYellow. Followed left and right in high #plank. Your turn! Be Safe! #StayActiveHWDSB

For the Wheel or Walk Wednesday, I completed a sunset ride!🚲 Tough against the wind but I love setting it up where it is at my back to finish!😉

Light rain this morning and a beautiful day this afternoon. You choose when to raise your HR! Don’t need a lot of space for this. 20 sec on and 10 sec off. A cardio workout doesn’t have to be an intense run or fast bike ride. @WHBallardnews #StayActiveHWDSB

During this time, it is important to know we can do at least ONE thing to help improve our mental and physical self...MOVE! Get a family member and go for a walk, run, bike...do 10 burpees or squat 15 times...then do more! Cherish what you have, MOVE and be SAFE! #StayActiveHWDSB

Staying consistently active is easier when you establish a routine. Make a plan. Stick with it. Conquer your goals! 👍 #rideeveryotherday #keepitsimpleandattainable #StayActiveHWDSB

Can’t deny the catchy beat! 👶🏻 🦈 Try this core workout and end your week on a high note! #BeSafe #dododoodoodooodooo #StayActiveHWDSB

Backyard Games are a @WHBallardnews favourite Take your family outside, find an open and safe space and try a Target Game of your choice: Bocce, Ring Toss, Ladder Toss, Rubber Horseshoes or Lawn Darts (the safe ones)😉 There are many to pick! Be Safe & have fun! #StayActiveHWDSB

@WHBallardnews being active is as simple as a walk, run, swim or bike ride. Get out there and move your body! Have fun and be safe!! #enjoythesun #hydrate #StayActiveHWDSB #MorningRidgeRoadRide

TABATA TUESDAY @WHBallardnews it’s been a while since we’ve done a Tabata session. Let’s get after it with these exercises. Try to go through this one time. If you are able, a second time!👍 Good luck and Be Safe!! #StayActiveHWDSB
