Challenge matters more than the number on the dumbbell.

Progress doesn’t come from lifting heavy; it comes from lifting challenged.

What matters is that the combination of weight + reps feels hard for you:
👉the last few reps slow down
👉you have to focus
👉you could do a couple more… but not many

That might be:
✔️6 reps with a heavier weight
✔️10–12 reps with something moderate
✔️15+ reps with lighter load

All of those can build strength and muscle when the effort is there.

There’s no bonus prize for using heavier weights before your body is ready.
The goal isn’t to impress; it’s to adapt.

If it feels challenging by the end of the set, it’s doing its job 💪

👉Following a plan that gives me a full week of strength training, broken into short daily chunks so it just becomes part of my day

👉Doing something most days instead of trying to “fit in” two perfect gym sessions

👉Not beating myself up if I miss a day, just getting on with it so days don’t quietly turn into weeks (and then months)

👉Setting up my environment to remove thinking: like keeping my equipment out and visible so it’s a cue, not a decision

👉Being okay with working out in whatever I’m already wearing instead of waiting until I feel organised

👉Making it about 10% more enjoyable: coffee in hand, favourite podcast on- so I enjoy the process

👉Training in a way that feels achievable on busy days, not something I have to psych myself up for

👉Focusing on building strength for my future body, not chasing soreness or exhaustion

Nothing extreme.
Nothing fancy.
Just a system that works with real life instead of against it.

If you’re a woman over 35 who wants to feel stronger, move better, and stop overthinking exercise - you’re in the right place.

Most women aren’t “bad” at working out at home or on their own.

They’ve just spent years exercising inside external structure - classes, PT sessions, fixed times, someone else making the decisions.

That structure is powerful.
It lowers mental load.
It removes decision-making.
And for many women, it works brilliantly.

But home workouts run on a different system.

When you train at home, you’re no longer outsourcing the thinking.
You’re deciding when to start, what to do, how hard to work, and when it’s enough.

That’s not a motivation problem.
It’s a skill gap.

And here’s the honest part:
Home workouts aren’t for everyone - and they don’t have to be.

If getting all your movement needs met in classes or the gym works for you, that’s great.
There’s nothing to fix.

But if time, money, life, or logistics mean some of your training needs to happen at home, then learning how to build that internal structure matters.

🎧 In this week’s podcast, I break down the 4 parts of building the home workout skill — and how to work out whether it’s actually something you want to learn or not.

Strength training doesn’t have to be
long
hard
expensive
or something you need to psych yourself up for.

A lot of women are told they need:
– minimum 2 long gym sessions a week
– heavy weights or it doesn’t count
– perfect form under constant supervision

And while that is one way, it’s also why so many women never start… or never stick.

What works better for most women is this:
Short, intentional sessions done often.

10 minutes a day
Well structured
Covering the basics
Repeated consistently

Not because it’s “better than nothing”
but because it actually becomes part of your life.

That’s exactly how I program strength inside GLOW10.
Daily 10-minute sessions that build strength without wrecking you,
and without requiring a gym membership or huge chunks of time.

If you’re curious what a 10-minute strength session actually feels like…

If you’ve ever thought…

“I’ll start strength training when I have the right equipment.”

This one’s for you 👇

Because I’m currently in the middle of my 10ADAY challenge and my FAVOURITE part so far is seeing how 200+ women are making it work… with wildly different set-ups.

Like:
💪one woman deadlifting 30kg with a barbell in her garage gym
💪another using a resistance band because that’s what she has
💪 workouts in a hotel room
💪 home sessions with a set of dumbbells

All doing a version of the same program.

And it proves the point:

✅ Strength training isn’t about perfect equipment.
It’s about having a plan + building a rhythm.

Most women don’t “fail” because they didn’t have a barbell…

They stop because it never becomes part of their week.

➡️ If you’re waiting for your back pain to “fully go away forever”… you might be waiting a long time.
Not because you’re broken.
Because you’re in a human body with an aging spine.

➡️ Most recurring back + neck pain is NOT a ‘damage’ problem.
It’s a capacity + sensitivity problem.

➡️ Your “bad” posture isn’t the problem. It’s your unchanging posture.
(Any posture for too long = spine gets cranky.)

➡️ If you’re treating recurring pain like something to FIX… you’ll spiral.
If you treat it like something to MANAGE… you’ll feel powerful again.

➡️ Hot take: it’s rarely the one thing you did.
It’s usually the week you’ve had:
more stress
less sleep
more sitting
less training
more “go go go”

➡️ Back pain is not a sign you’re ‘falling apart’.
It’s often a sign your spine needs more movement + strength than it’s getting.

“The cold hard truth about back + neck pain as we get older.”

One of the biggest objections I hear about 10 minutes a day is:
“But is it actually enough?”

I’m going to let you in on a little secret 🤫
Your body doesn’t care whether you train for 60 minutes a week across two long sessions…
or six shorter ones.

It cares about consistency, effort, and progress over time.

Short daily sessions work not because they’re a shortcut, but because they’re far more likely to actually happen.

And when something happens most days, it stops feeling like a thing you have to prepare for.
It becomes part of your daily rhythm.
Part of who you are.

Like making a coffee.
Like putting on a load of washing.
Like answering emails.

That’s where the real change happens.
Not in perfect weeks.
Not in all-or-nothing plans.
But in showing up again and again, even when life is busy.

10 minutes isn’t “better than nothing.”
Done with intention, it’s enough to build strength, reduce niggles, and support your body for the long term.

And I don’t know about you, but that’s the kind of training I can see myself sticking with for life.

Simple right?

But Im not kidding.

Here’s what I know after years of working with women in clinic + coaching women inside GLOW10…

The hardest part of strength training isn’t:
❌ lifting heavy weights
❌ finding the “perfect” program
❌ mastering your form

It’s showing up consistently enough for it to actually work.

And the truth is…
All the “best” workouts in the world mean nothing if they live in your Notes app and never get done 😅

So instead of trying to force yourself to be more disciplined…

Try this:
Make it easier to show up.
Make it more enjoyable.
Make it something you don’t dread.

Here are a few ways to do that:

✨ Temptation bundling
Pair your workout with something you love:
coffee, a podcast, a playlist, a guilty pleasure show, sunlight on the deck
* especially effective if you ONLY do that thing when you’re exercising

✨ Environmental design
Change the vibe so it feels good:
music on
fresh air / fan
tidy space
equipment ready before you start
workout clothes laid out

✨ Post-session reward / ritual
Give yourself a “closing loop”:
a shower, a smoothie, a walk, 5 mins of stretching, sitting down with your coffee

Because the goal isn’t to become someone who can suffer through workouts…

It’s to become someone who can repeat them.

✨If you want help actually putting this into practice…

My FREE 10-min-a-day challenge starts Monday.
It’s short, doable, and the easiest way to build momentum again.

❌ I don’t rely on it being exciting and different
❌ I don’t let the plan to work out take over my whole day
❌ I don’t follow random workouts with no structure
❌ I don’t do massive workouts that wipe me out
❌ I don’t “start again Monday” every time I miss a workout
❌ I don’t expect it to be perfect (uninterrupted, tidy space, elaborate setup)
❌ I don’t chase sweat or the can’t-walk-the-next-day feeling as proof it worked
❌ I don’t neglect the things that support my energy (sleep, nutrient-dense food, rest)

✅ I keep it short
✅ I repeat it often
✅ I focus on rhythm
👉 and then I get on with my day

That’s it. That’s the whole secret.

If you want to try this approach with me, I’m running a free 10ADAY challenge starting Monday 19th Jan.

If you LOVE the gym… keep going 👏
This isn’t one of those “you don’t need a gym” posts.

This is for the women who don’t want to go…
or who’ve bought memberships before and still haven’t found a rhythm that sticks.

Because here’s the good news: you can build real strength at home.
You just need a plan, a starting point, and a way to keep showing up.

If you want help building that rhythm, I’m running my FREE 10 Minutes a Day Challenge soon.
