Many women are intimidated by the gym, but we know as we age, we lose muscle mass. Research shows adding muscle helps combat the effects of peri and post menopause. If you have been wanting to start strength training, but are unsure of what is the most safe, effective way to do that, this is the program for you!
I have been strength training myself for the past 10 years. I started out not really knowing how to lift or progress. I got a personal trainer and learned the safe and effective way to improve my strength and fitness. Then, I loved it so much I became a certified personal trainer and started training women like myself, in their 50’s and above wanting to feel stronger and add a little muscle to combat the inevitable loss of muscle mass as we enter menopause. It was so exciting to see my clients get the same results I did, all it required was consistency. As a physical therapist, I made sure to design the programs to prevent injury and address functional strength. My clients are not interested in buidling huge muscles, but are interested in looking more toned, continuing to be able to do the things they love, be it hiking, tennis, biking or playing with their grandchildren!
Sometimes it is difficult to afford a one on one personal trainer or get into a gym facility, so I designed this program so that you can easily access video instruction on your computer, ipad or phone. These videos include instruction and adaptations to keep the exercises safe and effective. You can also do this at home, all you need is a few small dumbbells (I recommend getting a set of 3-15 lbs) and a resistance band. If you can be consistent and work out at least 2x per week, you will get results. I have seen it happen with my clients and myself! As of this time, I am 62, bike for fun and enjoy hip hop dancing. This would only be happening if I also was strong.

That’s over 9 months of training. But don’t worry, you don’t have to commit all at once to the full program. I have organized it so you can move through each phase at your own pace. I recommend you try and complete each phase in 12 weeks. BUT, you can take as long as you need to progress yourself to a more lean, strong and fit body.
For each phase you receive a full workout with descriptions of technique, reps and recommended weights. You’ll also have links to YouTube video tutorials to help you be sure you know how to do the exercises and make any adaptations your need!
