We came to the conclusion that we first met some 2 We came to the conclusion that we first met some 20+ years ago when @barefoot_af_outdoors came to one of my Bootcamps, came on and off to ECN and even now still comes and joins my online programs from time to time

As with all my gals. Not just clients but friends. LOVE that I got to catch up while she was in town on her summer holls

Always the reminder that fitness and fitness classes are never ‘just’ about the workouts, but also about people, connection and moments of together with like minded wonderful humans. And that stuff matters ❤️

So glad we got to catch up. Until next time 😘
If you’re a woman 40+ don’t shy away from impa If you’re a woman 40+ don’t shy away from impact training. Power and plyometric training isn’t just for athletes — it’s one of the keys to aging strong and ageing well. Here’s why:

Fast-Twitch Muscle Fibres – As we age, these fibres decline faster than slow-twitch ones. Without training them, we lose speed, reaction time, and the ability to move quickly when it matters (like catching yourself if you trip).

Muscle Elasticity – Plyometrics keep muscles and tendons springy, which supports better movement efficiency and helps reduce injury risk.

Bone Density – Jumping, bounding, and other impact work sends powerful signals to your bones to stay strong — crucial for preventing osteoporosis.

Metabolic Health – Power training can improve insulin sensitivity and keep your metabolism more responsive.

Tthink squat jumps, med ball slams, or power push presses, or rebounds like I’m doing in the video. Start small and build over time, once or twice a week can make a difference.

Start feeling stronger, faster, and more resilient. Join my FREE 5 Day Kickstart Challenge and I’ll show you exactly how to incorporate this type of training into your week.
Comment or DM if u want access to the free challenge.

Here are 4 things I recommend every woman 40+ does Here are 4 things I recommend every woman 40+ does daily to boost energy, reduce stress, and feel stronger in midlife:
1.Prioritise Protein – Aim for 30g per meal to support muscle and hormone health.
2.Walk Daily – Even 20 mins can improve metabolism and mental clarity.
3. Lift Something Heavy – Strength training is non-negotiable for bone and muscle health. 2-3 times a week
4. Go Tech-Free Before Bed – Your sleep and cortisol levels will thank you.

First Hyrox training session completed and it was First Hyrox training session completed and it was so good to get a feel for the race, all of the different stations and how we will work the transitions. 

Now my main focus for the next few months is clear. Improve aerobic capacity and get faster at running.

How often should I increase my weights?�Here’s How often should I increase my weights?�Here’s the rule I use with my crew (and it’s how I just hit a 110kg PB on hip thrusts 💪)...👉 If you finish a set and could have done 4+ more reps, your weight is too light. Progressive overload — gradually increasing your weights over time — is how we build strength, preserve muscle mass, and boost metabolism (especially important in midlife and beyond). But it doesn’t mean going heavier every single session.�We phase training across different rep ranges:🏋️‍♀️ Lower reps = heavier weights = building raw strength�🔥 Higher reps = lighter weights = building endurance and controlSo when should you go heavier?�✔ When your form is solid�✔ When the last 2 reps feel challenging but doable�✔ When the set ends and you know you had 4+ more reps in the tankStrength training in midlife isn’t just about “toning” — it’s about staying powerful, mobile, and independent for decades to come.💬 Got a question about lifting, reps, or how to phase your training?

Many people never sprint again after 30, and resea Many people never sprint again after 30, and research shows this loss of explosive movement and power is linked to: * faster declines in muscle mass and bone density * reduced cardiovascular fitness * loss of functional movement (hello, injuries and falls)* and ultimately, a shorter healthspan. Sprint Intervals are certainly something you should build up but can be an incredible training tool that covers strength, power and cardiovascular fitness. They are also kinda satisfying tooAfter following a Stacy Sims training plan myself and really feeling the benefits of sprint intervals, or course I get my clients to join in the fun too #fitnessmotivation #fitnesstips #fitnessover40
You didn’t stop on the hill this time.�No one You didn’t stop on the hill this time.�No one cheered. No medals.�Just you… noticing that what used to break you doesn’t anymore.Midlife progress looks different.�It’s slower.�It takes more work.�And sometimes, it’s frustrating — because what used to work (like dropping 4lb in a week just by skipping wine) doesn’t anymore. But that slower progress?�It’s deeper. More solid. More earned.I’ve only lost 4lb…�But I feel lighter.�Not just in body — but in energy, in strength, in mindset.This isn’t just about weight.�It’s about being able to run up hills I used to walk.�It’s about sticking with the process even when the scale’s quiet.�It’s about redefining what progress actually looks like in this season of life.So here’s your reminder:�Keep going.�You’re further than you think. #MidlifeStrong #WomenOver40 #FitnessJourney #RealProgress #StrongerNotOlder #Shift40 #MindsetMatters #MidlifeFitness #PerimenopauseSupport
