PMR #172: Finding Your Strength with Strongwoman Aimee Rose

Today we are talking with strongwoman Aimee Rose. Aimee is a competitive strongwoman and spokesperson. She’s based in Ottawa, Ontario where she founded Love to Train, a holistic training facility that delivers health and wellness programs to people of all ages and abilities. After struggling a lot of her life with scoliosis and food sensitivities, doctors labeled her physically disabled when she was a kid. But she decided to take her health into her own hands, challenging herself to learn and compete and she got in to bodybuilding, strongman, and even an Ironman. Now, as a coach, she helps apply these same techniques and knowledge that she gained to help other people find their own strengths. In this episode we talk about her work, and the fundamentals of strongman workouts. We also get into chatting about empowering yourself in the gym and how this can have so many positive effects in the rest of your life as well.
