Welcome, Alec W Dewdney!
Profile Information
- My "Proud ME" Story:
- Like Cross country ski, snow shoe, walking, working out, improving my physique and staving off old age. Love my family three sons and a daughter. Youngest is 30. Love my two granddaughters both around five years old. Really enjoy gardening and caring for my wife who has MS.I competed for the first time in the 2009 Ontario Fame as a super grandmaster. I enjoyed the build up and the actual day was a huge adrenalin rush for me. I had so much fun backstage and on stage. I didn't really want it to be over. I was still in the afterglow a week later. To top it off I placed first. I subsequently placed second at the World's Super Grand master and fifth in the open category. This year I placed 3rd in Central Canada Fame World Tour but received an award for the most entertaining male on stage. I like that. This year I placed first in Vegas and am still in the golden glow. Placed firstat the Fame Centrals in Cobourg and received the overall champion choice from the judges. Placed first in my category at UFE Oct 22 2011 in Hamilton
- What Made Me "ME"
- David Avery is a kind, considerate, knowledgeable guy who has helped me significantly. Julie his wife is delightful,very encouraging and certainly knowledgeable as a bodybuilder with the added bonus of nutritional knowledge.
Jeff Kipple and Mindy Blackstein are amazing and accomplished. I have never met such a positive couple before now. Nothing is too much trouble for them.
- My Body Proud Moments
- An easy way to calculate protien, carbs, fat and calories on a plant-based diet.
- Experience, Awareness, or Life Lesson that Enriched ME:
- I read somewhere that "You can't stop aging but you sure can slow it down"
- Stretching My Comfort Zone
- You don't have to become limited as you age. Know your goals and set out a plan to achieve. I am learning that a plant based diet can provide me with all the nutrients I need without the negative side effects of animal products. I don't expect to become a vegan but certainly will increase plant based foods in my diet and reduce animal products.
- Talents I Wish to Hone.
- CTV picked up my story for their news spot about Canadian Spirit! they picked it up from an article about me in The Independent, a local newspaper.Stephan, a camerman, and John Venavally-Rou, the reporter came to our house and the Y in Cobourg and after four hours of filming and interviewing produced the newspiece that was introduced by Lloyd Robertson on national News. It was very well done and can be accessed by googling me. I am amazed - I placed 5th in the open category at the World's competing against guys half my age. I placed 2nd in the Super Grandmasters Can't complain about coming second to Richard Seguin!
The Toronto Star published a story about my wife and me on June 18th -http://www.thestar.com/article/651842
Q107 a local radio station from peterborough read the story over the air Thursday 25th and now City TV wish to run a feature story. City came to our home and filmed an interview and aired it. Getting "Most entertaining male on stage" award in Cobourg Spring 2010. Since then first at the Worlds, first in Fame Centrals and overall male champion Spring 2011 and 1st at UFE hamilton Oct 2011
- My Passion Project:
- Alec Dewdney Trainer/Consultant in Behaviour change applied to Life Safety Skills - SafeStart and SafeTrack working with Electrolab Training Systems Belleville ON. In Occupational Health and Safety 39 years.
As of February 23 2010 certified by Can Fit Pro as a Personal Trainer Specialist
- Areas I wish to Solve / Resolve / Enrich:
- Teacher, Personal Trainer &/or Fitness Professional, Professional
- My Philosophy / Message / Wisdom:
- The help and guidance provided by David, the camaradery of the "Team Avery" and all of the great people staff and members at the Y in Cobourg and to WNSO for providing an even playing field for clean athletes
- Players I Wish to Associate With and Why:
- Anyone can make mistakes and we all make them. Some more than others. These mistakes can hurt, kill or just waste our time and do the same for others. It is possible to reduce these mistakes, even if we have little control over events and actions of others. we can control how we react to them. I work with two simple and very successful processes called SafeStart and SafeTrack. I go to workplaces and train a number of employees as facilitators and they in turn work with fellow workers encouraging them to use the simple ideas at work, at home and on the road. A take home component enables all employees to take the message home to their families. These two processes have taken me to all over North America and Overseas. I have met many wonderful people and seen the lights come on. The processes can be accessed through Electrolab Trg Systems Belleville Ontario Canada
- Look for ME Here:
- You only limit yourself. Age has nothing to do with what you can acheive. It is possible to become whatever you want to become. As the sign at the YMCA Cobourg says "Check your limits at the door"
- My GAME Play Strategy:
- I started working out to maintain my strength as I increase in years, mainly to be able to take Sue, my wife who is quite disabled with MS, on business trips. This requires me lifting Sue in and out of vehicles, airplane seats and hotel beds. It has worked well for us. We have travelled extensively for work. I became a client of David Avery four years ago. He has helped me tremendously. I learned the benefit of having a personal trainer and decided to persue this as a goal for me. I would love to help others as David has helped me.The competition seemed like a natural thing to do to act as a goal for my workouts and to help me to market myself as a personal trainer. I will keep going
- Skills I Have:
- To continue to learn improved technique for bodybuilding and about diet. I will help others acheive life fitness goals as a certified personal trainer specialist.
- Referred by (and why):
- David Avery
