CALGARY, June 17, 2013 /CNW/ - A new website allows Canadians to interact with each other and with health experts including Olympians Hayley Wickenheiser and Kyle Shewfelt about fitness and healthy living.
Revive.ca is a free online community gathering place where Olympic medalists, nutrition & food experts, fitness enthusiasts and active Canadians of all ages come together to share information and inspiration about healthy, active living in their own communities.
Revive.ca is the first website of its kind. It features weekly columns, instructional fitness videos, nutritious recipes, meal planning guides and wellness advice from Olympians Hayley Wickenheiser and Kyle Shewfelt, extreme endurance athlete Simon Donato, nutrition expert Andrea Holwegner and North America's leading meal planning guru and best-selling author Sandi Richard.
Revive.ca is an unprecedented tool for Canadians to connect, learn and pursue their passion for healthy living. The website is a philanthropic tool for Canadians powered by Jugo Juice, a Canadian company with an interest in helping people live healthier, more active lives.
"Revive.ca is a really unique - and much needed - resource for people to connect with others about fitness, health and wellness," said four-time Olympic medalist Hayley Wickenheiser. "The site's goal is to support people on their personal fitness and lifestyle journeys. I'm going to be sharing my own tips and tricks on healthy living, but I also am excited to hear from Canadians about how they stay healthy. It's going to be a great community forum."
"We are at the start line of something amazing," said Olympic Gold Medalist Kyle Shewfelt. "And the great thing is, no one knows where we'll end up. The health fanatics at Jugo Juice got this online party started, but it's Canadians who want to be active and healthy who will drive the content and focus of the site. I am psyched that I am able to share my thoughts and experiences, a weekly piece of "awesome" that Canadians can add as fuel to their fire for fitness and vitality."
