Bariatric & Medical Weight Loss Strength + Movement Workshop

A safe, supportive introduction to strength training—for every stage of your weight loss journey.

Whether you’re preparing for bariatric surgery, currently using medical weight loss options, or navigating life after significant weight loss, one thing remains constant:

Your body needs strength.

This workshop was created in partnership with medical providers at St. Michael Medical Center to help individuals safely build confidence with movement, strength training, and long-term physical independence—without intimidation, pressure, or misinformation.

This workshop is designed for individuals who are:

• Preparing for bariatric surgery
   
• Participating in a medical weight loss program (GLP-1s, physician-guided weight loss, etc.)
   
• Post-surgery and unsure how to return to movement safely
   
• New to strength training and unsure where to start
   
• Concerned about injury, joint pain, or “doing it wrong”
   
• Overwhelmed by conflicting fitness advice online
   

👉 No prior gym experience required.
👉 No workouts to “keep up with.”
👉 This is education first, movement second.

Let’s be clear—this is not:

• A bootcamp
   
• A weigh-in
   
• A sales pitch
   
• A “push harder” environment
   
• A one-size-fits-all workout
   

This is about education, confidence, and clarity—so you can make informed decisions about your body.

BC Fitness exists to bridge the gap between medical care and real-world movement.

We specialize in:

• Strength training for longevity
   
• Working with medical populations
   
• Private, non-intimidating environments
   
• Science-based programming (not trends)
   

Many people leave medical weight loss programs knowing what to do nutritionally—but not how to move safely afterward.

That’s where we come in.

When you attend a workshop, you can expect:

• A small group setting  

• Fully coached movements  

• Modifications provided as needed  

• No gym experience required  

• A supportive, non-intimidating environment  

This workshop is about progress, not perfection.

These workshops are currently being offered as small-group beta sessions:

• Mondays at 11:00am  

• Wednesdays at 6:00pm  

Class sizes are intentionally limited to ensure quality coaching and individual attention.

The cost for each workshop session is $20 per person.

Payment is handled through our scheduling system at the time of booking.
