Better than boot camp: We test out Vancouver’s hip new workout-meets-diet program, The Tight Life

Have you ever invested in a gym membership only to use it but once a month? Made a promise to stop eating sugar and carbs only to give in the moment a dessert plate is offered? Our western editor Joy Pecknold can certainly relate, which is why she jumped at the chance to try Vancouver’s newest (and probably the hippest) three-in-one healthy lifestyle program, The Tight Life.

A holy trinity of trainer, nutritionist and chef, are behind The Tight Life. Three Vancouverites—Keighty Gallagher, Carley Mendes and Christina Culver—dreamt it up to solve a common dilemma: when you cleanse, you have no energy to exercise, whereas if you do a boot camp it, it’s common to binge on bad food posthaste. The solution is so simple, it hurts: “A combination of healthy diet and regular exercise.” D’oh! Actually doing it is the tricky part, so they facilitate. I took their three-week Glory Zone package, which includes two hour-long group workouts a week with Gallagher, weekly nutrition guidance by Mendes and two post-workout salads a week made by Culver.
