Vicky Taylor-Hood

Vicky Taylor-Hood was born and lives in Newfoundland, Canada.

 

She spends her winters on the rugged east coast of that island and her summers riding the waves and exploring the coves of a tiny remote island in central Newfoundland.

 

Among her interests are powerlifting, strength training, kayaking, hiking, photography, orchids, nutrition, textiles (knitting and quilting), gardening, dogs, and ice cream. (But wait a while, the list is sure to grow!)

 

She has competed in the sport of Powerlifting at various international, national, and regional events and holds and has held numerous national records and has been National Champion many times over as well as World and Commonwealth Champion.

 

She has coached the Canadian National Team at World Championships, has served on the board of the Canadian Powerlifting Union and the Newfoundland and Labrador Powerlifting Association, and holds certifications to support these roles. She is also a CPU National Referee.

 

She believes that you get what you work for, that consistency is a learned skill that will take you anywhere, and that fitness is about being able to do more, be more, and own your space in this world, while enjoying the process and celebrating every success along the way with good people.

 

At heart, she is a woman who fell in love with feeling strong and who vastly enjoys sharing this passion with others and helping them cultivate strength in all aspects of their lives.
