AYB Fitness & Running I've been helping women 35+feel stronger, more confident, and supported with their health and fitness since 2014. Abi # # #

Getting you stronger so you can live better for longer. Wherever you are in your health, fitness and running journey, I'm here to help you realise your goals and ‘achieve your best’! I provide 1-on-1 personal training and running coaching, as well as face-2-face group fitness classes, online classes and challenges, aimed at keeping you both functionally strong as well as complimenting your other sporting activities. As a runner myself I understand how important it is to be strong in your chosen sport and remain injury free, but to also provide a well-managed rehab plan if you have been injured (in consultation with your medical practitioner). While you put in the blood, sweat and tears (more sweat, less blood and tears!) I provide the technique and expertise but also the knowledge, support and motivation you need. Because let's face it, sometimes it's just hard to put on your runners and fitness gear and get started. We all have those moments in our day where our energy has flagged because we're trying to do a million things, or we haven't slept well, or we're stressed from work, or we feel we don't have the time, and the list goes on. So, often you are the last person on your priority list. So, that’s my job… I'm here to help you be fit, eat healthy, have more energy and stay the course so that you aren't stressing about your own health and fitness too. I’m a firm believer that the fitter and healthier and more energy you have, the better equipped you are to give 100% not only to yourself, but to those you love too. Be fit, be strong, stay healthy... believe and you can achieve.

20/30 years old? Future proof yourself.
40 years old? Stop muscle loss before it starts.
50 years old? Protect your joints.
60 years old? Prevent falls.
70/80 years old? Quality of life.

Prevention, better than rehab.

Lift. Be strong for life.

Women over 40... strength declining? hormones whacky?

Then you want more strength, less stress. And stress comes in many forms, not just emotional stress. Things like not enough sleep and over training and a poor diet all contribute to stress in the body.

When it comes to exercise though strength training is your friend. While I love long distance running, it's not the friend to me that it used to be over 40 (well, over 50). Instead it's better to prioritise strength training with less reps, more weight.

That doesn't mean don't run (omg, I hate when I read that running is crap... do what you enjoy because it's better than sitting on the couch!), but strength training 2-3 times per week will help manage your age related muscle and hormone loss 💪🏋️‍♀️

Oh, and did I mention protein? Eat more protein! 🍗🥚🍣🥛🥜

We're famous! My Exercise for Older Adults class is so popular another class has been added to the timetable at the Lilydale Community Centre.

And we don't just squat and lift weights! We play fitness games and activities, build strength and balance, and have tons of fun along the way. And it's not just popular because we exercise, it's because it's such a fabulous supportive and encouraging group of people who have a lot of laughs and fun as they stay fit and healthy. Because staying active as you get older is where it's at 💖🤩
New class starting next week! (25th July)

2 fun, fabulous classes every Fri at 11am & 12pm! ❤️🥳💪
Plus I run an Active Adults class at Chirnside Community Centre every Wed at 9.30am! 😍🏀🕺🧘‍♀️

If you, or someone you know, would like to come along and give it a try message me and I'll be happy to have a chat and help you get started.
