Moves to Motivate

Brilliant messaging, UK 👏

An equally important lens is: women over 40yrs...

Don't aim for perfection - just consistent permanence....for yourself so YOU can thrive in menopause and beyond...not just survive.

Something ALWAYS is
Always
Better than nothing.

When clients achieve their goals, I get SO excited for them! I am so happy for my client Phoebe, who wanted to get back into running post injury from years ago. Her ultimate goal was to do her best but have "happier hips when running and in recovery". She additionally wanted to feel "strong" in training.

Congrats Phoebe - you nailed it at the ...10km here you come!

Essential take home:
1. Squatting is essential...a functional movement to keep you living long and strong independently.
2. HOW you squat matters.

Everyday humans: Move your body for function not for the Olympics.

The barbell back squat has been treated like a religion in the gym ...

🤩 Congratulations to my client, John - 70 years young for competing in his 1st Indoor Rowing event at the Queensland Indoor Rowing Championships, Birtinya 7 June 2026.

🥇🥇🥇3 x 1st Place!
🥉1 x 3rd Place!

📍Proving it is never too late to try something new

❓Did he work hard to compete - YES! BUT training was intentional - not to thrash him, rather work with his body to encourage the best ways to stabilise, strengthen, give power and allow the recovery needed.

HOWEVER I take this opportunity to add - whilst John was wanting to focus on preparing for this event - His big picture focus is training for - being able to play with little grandkids, be a strong physical support to his wife, children and friends in and around the home. Well done, mate! 👏

Every single one of us is ageing.

‼️For the 1st time in global history - more than 50% of the world is now over 50 years old.

Whilst we may be LIVING to be older than previous generations = LIFE SPAN.

Our HEALTH SPAN gap is not moving with LIFE SPAN. This means, when we commence medications or have a HEALTH indicator be monitored by a health care provider (aka GP), this becomes the beginning of your Health Span to Life Span gap.

📣GREAT NEWS!

📉Changes can be made to reduce the Health Span to Life Span GAP.

Even with injuries, illness etc - identifying what capabilities you DO have and combining it with what capacity you HAVE to make small, manageable and consistent changes can be the START of improving how you age.

💪Not 20 or even 40 years old anymore? You don't need to try training like you are - contact me to learn more how you can start or improve on what you are doing!

Medical Weightloss. Commonly known as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro or referred to as GLP-1s and GIP receptor injectibles.

FACT: these are changing the landscape of metabolic health & weight management in ways traditional nutrition and movement has been unable to achieve for most users — majority of which are women over 35yrs.

These successes are not exclusively about weightloss. They can be about managing other medical concerns like PCOS, insulin resistance, diabetes etc.

Having previously worked with barriatric clients, I am seeing similarities but even greater success with my clients whose health professionals have prescribed medical weightloss injections, especially when paired with:

👉A network of care for clients between health care provider and trainer
👉Supportive and science backed understanding on how best to move the body with treatment
👉Nutritional coaching and support to manage any medicine side effects
👉Coaching behavioural changes for long term sustainability

As a Certified GLP-1 Medication Support Fitness Professional, I offer Remote / Face to Face coaching and training options available.

👩‍🎓Qualified to support you with strength training / programming, nutrition, behaviour change coaching, health care collaboration and accountability....working together on sustainable strategies.

WHY DO I LIFT? 🏋‍♀️

So I can keep being healthy, happy and strong doing things that I enjoy for as long as possible!

No competing. But monitor my own PBs in and out of the gym.

After a massive 2-day weekend of being Dirt Girl in the garden (yes in the 🌧!), pressure cleaning, climbing, hedging, stepping up, balancing, jumping down, deep squatting for weeding, lifting...

My 55yr self feels it. But that's ok...in fact it's EXTRA GOOD as my Dad would have said.

Today? I recognise the need to move but not flog.

Lower and slower gym weights at higher reps...it still counts. Not every workout should be a smasher.

Be kind to yourself...something ALWAYS is ALWAYS better than nothing.
