FIT OVER 45 šŸ’™

Most of our ladies walked through the door having never lifted a weight.

And a SKI ERG? šŸ˜‚ Definitely outside their comfort zone!

The nerves are REAL when you’re trying something new — especially if you haven’t been in a gym for years, or ever.

But they settle quickly.

Because this isn’t your typical gym environment. It’s women cheering each other on, celebrating the small wins, having a laugh and reminding each other: you absolutely can do hard or new things!!

I’m Sarah, and I love helping women discover just how strong and capable they are — not so you can lift the heaviest weight in the room, but so you can feel stronger in everyday life.

And THAT is where the wins happen:

✨ Carrying all the boxes yourself.�✨ Walking kilometres on holiday and feeling great.�✨ Climbing stairs without stopping.�✨ Getting down on the floor — and back up again — with ease.

These are the wins šŸ‘šŸ¼

The strength that builds confidence, independence and freedom to keep doing the things you love.

Our Fit Over 45 community includes women in their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s. Age and experience don’t matter.

Bring the nerves. Bring the uncertainty. Bring the ā€œI’m not sure I can do this.ā€

We’ll meet you exactly where you’re at šŸ«¶šŸ»

Come as you are. Leave with confidence.

Today I chose me.

I could have completed work admin, folded the mountains of washing, tidied the house, hung out the washing… (it’s still in the washing machine) eek!

Or taken this VERY SAD DOG for a walk šŸ•ā€šŸ¦ŗ šŸ˜‚

But nope. I went to the gym (downstairs in my house).

Some weeks I struggle to make time to train myself too. So today, I pushed the list aside and prioritised me.

Went in with a headache.
Walked out feeling amazing.

The washing can wait.
The housework can wait.
Even the sad dog survived šŸ˜‚

Your health and wellbeing matter too.

WOMEN’S HEALTH WEEK šŸ’™ā€Ø
DO IT ANYWAY

How often do we know we should be looking after ourselves… but somehow everyone and everything else comes first?

We’re busy.
We’re tired.
We’re caring for everyone else.

And thanks to social media, looking after our health can sometimes feel like it requires a 27-step morning routine, perfect nutrition and hours at the gym šŸ™„

It doesn’t.

Looking after yourself doesn’t have to be complicated. It might mean:

- Booking the appointment you’ve been putting off.
- Asking for help so you actually have time to go.
- Going for a walk.
- Getting 5 minutes of fresh air.
- Coming to the gym and moving your body.
- EATING. Yes, actually fuelling yourself!
- Getting more sleep.
- Taking time to rest.

And perhaps most importantly…

Giving yourself permission to prioritise YOU!

It isn’t selfish.
It isn’t indulgent.

It’s part of looking after your health šŸ¤øšŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

So this Women’s Health Week, take 10 minutes.

Write down 3 things you’re going to do for yourself — and 1 change you can make to help actually make them happen.

šŸ‘‰ Maybe it’s putting that appointment in your calendar.ā€ØšŸ‘‰ Asking your partner to take over the kids for an hour.ā€ØšŸ‘‰ Scheduling your walk like you would any other commitment.

Or simply saying no to something else so you can say yes to yourself.

Not things you should do.
Not things Instagram says you need to do.
Things that will genuinely make you feel better, stronger, healthier or more like yourself.

Then…

DO IT ANYWAY šŸ«¶šŸ»

Even if you’re busy.
Even if it’s not perfect.
Even if you have to ask for help.
Even if you’re a little nervous.
Start small.
Start today.

Because every little bit matters - believe me!!

Our STRONGER classes are for busy women šŸ’™

Kids or no kids. 20, 30, 40 or 50 years old and beyond!

Super fit, starting from scratch or starting again. It doesn’t matter.

These classes are about building strength and fitness in a way that works for YOU.

Yes, it’s a group exercise class, capped at 20 women, but our philosophy is simple: you do you.

Because we understand that women have a LOT going on that can make prioritising themselves difficult.

Sick kids. Work. Pregnancy. Fertility. Hormonal changes. Perimenopause. Family. Life. Loss. The list goes on…

And sometimes just getting through the door is the biggest achievement of the day.

That’s why STRONGWOMEN is affectionately known as ā€œthe gym that’s not a gym.ā€

No mirrors.
No egos.
No judgement.
Just loads of support.

You have qualified trainers who know how to work with women at different ages and stages, a fabulous community around you, and the freedom to challenge yourself when you’re feeling good — or adapt when you’re not.

These classes are also child-friendly, because we know childcare can be one of the biggest barriers to exercise for mums.

We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, because …

Every woman is different. Every body is different.
Every day can be different.

Come as you are. Do what you can. Build from there šŸ’ŖšŸ¼

That’s what our STRONGER classes are all about.

I’ve realised that having goals keeps me motivated—and, most importantly, keeps me showing up šŸ’ŖšŸ¼

I know… a fitness coach lacking motivation?! šŸ¤” But at the end of the day, I’m a busy mum doing my best, just like you.

I’m almost 46, and I’m happy to say my ongoing back & hip pain and fluctuating energy levels have improved šŸ‘šŸ¼

I genuinely believe it comes down to persisting with the right guidance around training, nutrition & hormones.

And what I learn along the way, I share—because if it can help another woman, it’s worth it šŸ‘šŸ¼šŸ‘šŸ¼

My goal? Keep playing competitive hockey. Next up: Nationals in Adelaide! šŸ‘ But also to feel energised, happy and as pain & symptom-free as possible in everyday life.

Training Focus: Unilateral strength, rotational & anti-rotational core work, plyometrics—and REST days!

Nutrition: A work in progress. I’m working with a nutritionist & naturopath, focusing on more protein and eating more regularly. For me, this has made a BIG difference to those energy crashes and headaches.

Hormones: Watch this space! I’m experiencing some perimenopause symptoms—energy dips, hot flushes, heavier periods and low iron. I’m supplementing and seeing a women’s health GP next month.

Is it rocket science? Nope. A lot of it I already knew. The challenge was learning what to implement and how.

So my advice? Ask for help. Keep starting and re-starting. Be kind to yourself.

MumSafeā„¢ Level 2! (finally - I’ll get onto completing Level 3 now) 🤪

I’m really proud to share that I have officially achieved MumSafeā„¢ Level 2 Trainer status! šŸŽ‰

As a MumSafeā„¢ Trainer, ongoing education is a huge part of what I do. Working with women and mums means continually learning, evolving and staying up to date with the best evidence around safe and effective exercise throughout motherhood.

To achieve Level 2, I’ve completed more than two years as a MumSafeā„¢ Trainer, along with all required Year 2 education and assessments.

I’m incredibly proud to be part of such a passionate community of trainers who share the same mission: supporting women to move safely, confidently and effectively through every stage of motherhood and life šŸ’ŖšŸ¼

Because returning to exercise after having a baby shouldn’t be confusing, intimidating or a one-size-fits-all approach.

If you’re pregnant, postpartum or simply looking for a trainer who understands the changes women experience through motherhood and life, I’d love to help.

Well, it’s been straight back into ā€œreal lifeā€ for me — running kids around, work, repeat.

This picture is from my first gym session since I got home — almost two weeks later. And honestly, I’m sharing it as a reminder to give yourself some grace when you feel like you’re letting yourself down.

Life gets busy. It’s hard!

The Masters Hockey World Cup already feels like a lifetime ago, but the memories will stay with me forever. It was an absolute BLAST!!

And as clichƩ as it sounds, it was exactly what I needed.

Time to just be me — not a mum, wife or business owner. Just Sarah. It felt incredibly freeing and, honestly, long overdue.

The past few years have been a lot about caring for others, putting family first and doing what needed to be done. I wouldn’t change many of the choices I made, but looking back, I can see how much of myself I put on hold along the way (and perhaps taken advantage of just a tad).

I’ve learnt the hard way that I should have put myself higher on the list sooner.

You don’t have to wait until you’re at breaking point to make a change.
Mums — you’re still allowed to have dreams, goals and adventures of your own.

It’s not always easy when everyone needs you, but even small changes can make a big difference. Don’t lose yourself while taking care of everyone else.

So, my new strategy? Goals and mini adventures. Things to look forward to, just for me.

Next up: the MumSafe Fitness Retreat, a Melbourne concert with one of my boys, and Masters Hockey Nationals in Adelaide.

Because you’re a person too. Not just a mum, wife or partner.

Life is too short to forget who you are ✨
