The word víking derives from the feminine vík, meaning "creek, inlet, small bay". The Old Norse feminine noun víking refers to an expedition overseas. It occurs in Viking Age runic inscriptions and in later medieval writings in set expressions such as the phrasal verb fara í víking "to go on an expedition".
Viking Fitness developed around the idea that fitness is about the journey and not about the destination. The vikings didn't set camp in one location and never move again, they as a people were constantly on the move. Like the Vikings we will brave the unknown, we will fight for our future, and advance ahead together. As a team we will push each other to the next level of our own fitness, our destinations are not all the same, but our journey, we'll take together.
Think of Viking Fitness as a boat. Imagine trying to move that boat with only one oar (just think, circles). Now imagine a team of people with oars; now you can feel the movement. Add a sail to the vessel (our trainers) and now we are really moving on our way. Bringing like minded people together striving for similar fitness goals, we are stronger and more capable.
Thats why I want people to get involved now, I want people to be a part of the journey I'm on as I develop and grow Viking Fitness. My graphic Designer Barry Wallace (amazing guy and a brilliant art, graphics, and marketing mind) has designed all my images and graphics. (Check out his site: Barry Wallace Design ) The only issue that we have, is the Viking he designed, doesn't have a name. So I want to get everyones input on what his name should be. Comment here and let me know. Once I get a few suggestions, I will put it to a vote! Check him out, and let me know what name suits our Viking best.
