ParaTough Training Series

Originally launched to bring awareness to Canada's athletes headed to the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games, the ParaTough Training Series was the first workout series led entirely by Canadian Paralympians. 

Brought back by popular demand, you are invited to experience firsthand the intense and gruelling training done by some of Canada's toughest Para athletes. The series features 14 athletes and five challenging workouts that they do regularly in order to compete at the elite level. You are invited to follow along and try to keep up.
