Still think lifting is just for bodybuilders? Think again. 🏋️

Strength training is one of the most evidence-backed things you can do for your body — and your mind. It boosts your metabolism, protects your bones, sharpens your brain, and adds years to your life.

The best part? You don’t need to go heavy. You just need to start.

Not sure where to begin? Our Exercise Physiologists and Personal Trainers can build a strength program that’s tailored to your body, your goals, and your ability — so every session counts. Whether you’re brand new to weights or looking to level up your technique, we’ve got you covered.

Come see us at Fit Up Fitness — open 24/7 for when the motivation hits. 💪

PERIMENOPAUSE & MENOPAUSE

How heavy should women lift?
As hormones change, women can lose muscle, bone density, strength, power and confidence.
How many reps and sets?
A good starting point:
2–4 strength sessions per week
2–4 sets per exercise
5-12 reps for main lifts(higher end if beginner)
8–15 reps for accessory exercises
1–3 minutes rest between sets
Women need to:
Lift. Push. Pull. Squat. Hinge. Carry.
How do you know it is heavy enough?

Use Reps in Reserve method!
Ask yourself:

“How many more reps could I have done?”
5+ reps left: too easy
3–4 reps left: moderate
1–2reps left: ideal working zone
0 reps left: max effort, use carefully

The goal is not to smash yourself.

The goal is to give your body a reason to get stronger don’t just use the same comfortable weight each time.

Strong women age better.

PERIMENOPAUSE & MENOPAUSE

Train smarter. Feel stronger. Build confidence.

Perimenopause often starts in your 40s, but it can begin earlier. Menopause is reached after 12 months without a period, with the average age around 51.

As hormones change, women may notice changes in muscle tone, bone density, sleep, mood, libido, belly fat, joint aches, energy and confidence.

But the answer is not starving yourself or smashing endless cardio.

It is about building a body that feels strong, capable and alive.

Women need training that supports muscle mass, bone density, metabolism, joint health, posture and confidence.

That means learning to lift, push, pull, squat, hinge, carry and progressively build strength.

Pilates can also be a fantastic addition, especially when taught well and progressed properly. It can support core control, posture, pelvic floor awareness, breathing, balance, coordination, hip/spine mobility and confidence with movement.

But Pilates should not be the only form of training. For bone density, muscle mass and long-term metabolic health, women still need progressive resistance training.

Australian Exercise Guidelines

Aim for:

30 minutes or more of moderate to vigorous activity on most days
Strength training 2+ days per week
Mobility, balance and coordination 3+ days per week
Break up long periods of sitting

A smart weekly plan may include:

2–4 strength sessions
1–2 Pilates sessions
2–3 cardio sessions
Daily walking
Mobility/stretching
Pelvic floor awareness

Eat enough protein, include fibre, move daily, protect sleep and get support if symptoms are affecting your life.

At the hub, we help women train smarter through evidence-based strength, Pilates, clinical exercise and supportive university-trained coaching.

Strong women age better.
