Strength sessions last from 30-50 minutes, depending on your programme. The workouts do NOT change each week; the goal of this programme is to help you build strength, and this requires repetition and progressive overload over weeks. For each workout, you'll have access to my easy-to-follow movement demo videos, with key coaching points and cues for each exercise. My user-friendly App makes it a breeze for you to log your reps and weight, time your rest periods, and follow my guidance on when and how to progress so that you're constantly improving week by week. All programmes include access to a Know-How library, full of handy tutorials and tips. You can ask me questions and share your wins in the Group Chat or via DM within the App.
The main focus of LIFT is strength training, and strength training requires plenty of repetition of the same movements, over several weeks, so that we master technique and can build up reps and load. On any of my programmes, you'll be repeating the same workout(s) for several weeks running, gradually progressing the challenge as per my guidance. If that sounds boring, then LIFT won't be a good fit for you.
On LIFT, you'll get a comprehensive movement demo for each programmed exercise, with written guidance on both perinatal modifications and on how to make the exercise easier or harder. My workouts do not, however, include full, follow-along videos. If you prefer working alongside someone in real time, LIFT won't be a good fit.
While we will take the reps higher for some movements from time to time, we'll mainly be working in the 1-15 rep range. If you want to do only light weight, high rep training, LIFT won't be a good fit. To that end, you'll also need access to heavy enough weights to challenge for low-moderate reps.
Shit takes time, whether that's getting your first ever push up or building muscle. I am not promising any 28 day body transformations, but if you train consistently and apply progressive overload you WILL get stronger! If you're not up for playing the long game, LIFT won't be a good fit for you.
I offer a limited number of one-to-one Personal Training sessions at my studio in Benenden, TN17, on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays - £300 for 4 weeks. Sessions run for 75 minutes. I also offer one-off sessions for anyone who wants to work with me in person on a specific issue, for example working on deadlift form, managing prolapse symptoms while lifting, or modifying strength training during pregnancy or postpartum. Check availability.
Back in my twenties, exercise for me was about burning calories above all else, and I used to joke about my sheer lack of strength.
In 2016, on my journey back to fitness after having two babies in the space of 22 months, I wet myself during a circuits class. Long story short, reaIising how under-served women were by mainstream fitness, I decided to quit my career as a lawyer and retrain as a fitness coach. That's when I started training with weights, working consistently and progressively to get stronger. It was life-changing!
Now I'm on a mission to help as many women as possible to get strong AF. No gimmicks, no four-week transformations; just simple, structured, progressive workouts that set you up to age strong, whatever your life stage.
I live in rural Kent with my three kids, one husband, French bulldog, tortoise and two gerbils.
