Fit Vagabonding - What is it?

Well to be honest, I am not even sure if this is even a real thing, but all I know is that's what I'm doing and I'd be happy to share with you what Fit Vagabonding is, and maybe you can one day join me! But let's start with "Vagabonding". Vagabonding is simply someone who travels independently for an extended length of time. Some Vagabonds do not own anything but the backpack that they are traveling with. Some Vagabonds do own their own homes, but have chosen to rent them out to enjoy their freedom. They live simple lives and crave adventure, that's what keeps them alive.

So what does fitness have to do with this? Well, when I travel for months, I share two of my passions:

- Long Term Independent Travel
- Health and Fitness


I have met so many people during my travels, from hedonistic travelers, leisure travelers, volunteer travelers, and yes.....fitness-minded travelers, like me =). Traveling for long periods of time can bring tons of stress to the body and mind. Just like non-travelers, normal every day people get enormously stressed from their jobs, home life, sports activities, and relationships, so for Vagabonds...it's no different. You may think that when you see people travel for months and years at a time, you would think that they are having the time of their lives, and trust me, they are. But with all that fun and adventure, there are also challenges. I don't know how many times I have arrived at my destination and found out that my guesthouse was overbooked, or purchased a VIP bus ticket for a 12 hour overland trip and having the worst bus experience in my life. When obstacles like that happen, sometimes the best way to relieve some of that stress is to go for a run, hit the gym, or take a sunset yoga class.

I know from experience that fitness can change the outcome of any situation while traveling. I've seen people get stressed, and the first thing that they do is either go to sleep, or head straight to the bar. Don't get me wrong, a good nap works wonders, I've done that many times =), it all depends on how your body feels, and you must always LISTEN TO YOUR BODY. For me, the best way to relieve stress while traveling is by doing it the healthy and fit way, by just sucking it up and exercising. You hear the saying all the time "you never regret a workout", and that's true, at least in my case, I've never heard anyone say, "man, I really regret that workout"!

By trade, I am a Full-Time Beachbody Coach, which means I help people with their health and fitness goals by also living an active lifestyle. I currently coach hundreds of people online, which allows me the freedom to travel the world. Being a Beachbody Coach is like the ultimate Fit Vagabond because it combines the passion to share fitness around the world, while exploring the unknown and fulfilling the lifestyle of the adventurous mind.

Being a Fit Vagabond is about living your life to the fullest, and living the healthy lifestyle. When you are Fit Vagabonding, you are sharing the world of fitness around you naturally. One of the most amazing things for me as a Fit Vagabond is when people tell me that I have inspired them to be more active in their travels, or they say "thanks for the good times, I'm looking forward to start working out when I get home". Not all Fit Vagabonds will have the goal of sharing the lifestyle with the world, but like I said, it just happens naturally. People seem to always gravitate towards people who are going places, confident, and making a positive impact. Who wants to hang out with Mr. Negative or Mrs, Debbie Downer? huh, NO ONE! =)

Did I ever think that I would have the opportunity to travel around the world and share the active lifestyle with people? Absolutely not! It just happened, and it happened..... naturally. =)

If you are interested in learning more about what I do, and how maybe you can also benefit, please feel free to connect with me on facebook, and I look forward to meeting you soon! 

Stay active my friends!

 French Canadian Team Beachbody Coach Search


Team Beachbody is growing and expanding in the international marketplace. What does this mean for all the French Canadians, or just Canadians in general? It means "opportunity". The company spends roughly $120+ million dollars every year to market and promote their growing fitness and nutrition line, and to handle that growth, we are looking for Independent Coaches to help spread the word, and become CEO's of their own businesses.

What started as a small company in California has grown into a multi-billion dollar empire built by a network of Coaches who are focused on one mission, "ending the trend of obesity".

This will mark the beginning of our INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION!

I have seen so many lives CHANGED because of this fitness movement, and I am focused on expanding my team to keep up with the demand.

813 Fit Club - Downtown Tampa FL.


 813 Fit Club - Circa 2011

It is so hard to believe that it's been almost 4 years since I opened up 813 Fit Club in downtown Tampa, Fl. I started the Fit Club with a handful of Coaches in February of 2011, and it is still growing every day. With close to 1500 members, there is no signs of slowing down!

What is the PURPOSE behind 813 Fit Club?
As a Beachbody Coach, I mostly coached people online through various Beachbody Fitness Programs such as P90X, Insanity, Body Beast and 20+ other fitness programs. We (my coach team) understood that it was tough for some of our customers, as well as coaches to stay motivated at home, so we decided to open up a place for people who were participating in our Fitness Challenges to workout together once per week. The organized event promised camaraderie, motivation, accountability, and even some healthy competition. We also opened it up to the local community so that they could see what our programs were all about, and educate them on living a more healthy and fulfilling life. The workouts are always free, and promises challenging workouts for all fitness levels. 813 Fit Club also provides Free Outdoor Workouts at Curtis Hixon Park. The outdoor workouts are hosted by Beachbody Coaches, LIVE Insanity Certified Instructors, and local Personal Trainers.

What is the GOAL for 813 Fit Club?
The goal has never changed since the very beginning when it was just a thought in our minds. Our main goal is to promote our greatest MISSION, which is to "End the Trend of Obesity" and help people live healthier lives.  When we started our Beachbody Coach Team a few months before the opening of 813 Fit Club, we only had 5 coaches on our team. We currently have 19,000+ Coaches on our team which spans all over the USA and Canada. Let's just say that we will never give up! For most of us Coaches, the fitness and nutrition programs have changed our lives, and we are just doing our part by paying it forward, not because we have to, but because we LOVE to! Beachbody Coaching is not just about fitness, it's a way of life! =)
