Midlife is the perfect time to take a chance and try something new.
Feel the fear and do it anyway!

Stop telling women that we can do it all.
We don’t want to.
We want someone else to do it so that we can go to the gym. 💪🏼😅

I’m halfway to running my first marathon 💪🏼🏃‍♀️‍➡️😅

What goals have you already ticked off this year and what are you working towards?

If you’re not quite where you want to be, give yourself grace, we’re all only human.

And on we go together…..

I’m not one to toot my own horn, that’s why I love it when one of my awesome clients does it for me.

Thank you Karen, I really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to write such a thoughtful Google review.

The truth is that you did all the hard work and I couldn’t be prouder of the results you have achieved.
💪🏼👏🤩

I love my job and helping women of all ages reach their unique health and fitness goals.

Over the last few years I’ve done additional training on the needs of women who are going through perimenopause, menopause and post menopause.

If you or a loved one are looking for personal support
to:

get started with strength and conditioning training,

are needing nutritional guidance,

want to level up your training and compete in HYROX races and/or CrossFit competitions,

or

would simply like to stay injury free to crush your favourite sport and recreational activities.

I have over 14 years of experience to take you where you want to go.

I offer both in person training in Port Macquarie and online coaching.

I’m not running a marathon just to lose weight or look a certain way.

To me it’s about seeing what my body can do and so much more….

Preparing for a marathon isn’t just about running long distances. It’s about committing to something months in advance—and showing up for it every single day.

You don’t wake up one day and suddenly run a marathon. You build toward it—step by step, week by week. You train when it’s raining, when it’s cold, when you’re tired. You stick to the plan, not just when it’s convenient, but when it’s hard. That’s discipline in action.

Training for a marathon teaches you to prioritize your time, push through discomfort, and stay focused on a long-term goal. It teaches you patience, persistence, and resilience. And those lessons don’t stop at the finish line.

Because once you’ve built the discipline to prepare for a marathon, you’ve built the mindset to take on anything.

If 8 week weight loss challenges actually worked then you wouldn’t need to keep doing them.

💐Happy International Women’s Day!💐

Sad to see that Apple and Google have now removed International Women’s Day from our calendars.

But that won’t stop us from celebrating. 🎉

Women are amazing. 🤩

Kindness and empathy are evolved states of intelligence not a weakness.

Being a woman is a strength and we deserve to be treated equally with dignity and respect.

Let’s not let the tech bros who are currently running the world keep us down.

Today we celebrate.

Just hanging around during our “Strong & Flexi” class at CrossFit 2444.

If I could recommend just one form of exercise to increase both your lifespan and your health-span it would be strength training.

Current health guidelines recommend that women who are going through the menopause transition should prioritise strength training 2-4 days per week.

Beginners should start with simple body weight movements and gradually add weight as their mobility and technique improves.

If you need guidance with getting started I’d be happy to help.

Just send me a DM or comment “strength” below for more information.

The Key to Aging Well: Strength Training

When it comes to longevity, one factor stands above the rest: muscle mass. As Dr. Peter Attia puts it,

“The strongest correlation to lifespan is strength, and the strongest correlation to healthspan is muscle mass.”

Strength training isn’t just about lifting weights—it’s about preserving independence, mobility, and resilience as we age. It protects against sarcopenia (muscle loss), strengthens bones, improves balance, and even supports brain health.

If you want to move well, feel strong, and live longer, prioritise resistance training. Your future self will thank you!

Question:
Is it possible to have more than one training goal at the same time?

Answer:
Yes it is!

As you can see in the images below, I’ve recently received confirmation that I made it through the ballot draw process for the Sydney marathon and I’ve just started training for that.

As I wasn’t running consistently beforehand I’m choosing to do a couch to marathon program that will see me ready for the big race on August 31.

I’m currently in week 2 of the Couch to 5K program below.

Simultaneously, I’m training with the team at CrossFit 2444 for the CrossFit Open that starts on February 27.

At 55, I’m also training for my old lady body and running and strength training (which we do loads of at CrossFit) are two of the best ways to keep our muscles and bones strong which helps prevent falls and broken bones from osteoporosis as we age. 💪🏼

I may even throw another HYROX event in the mix just for fun!

What health and fitness goals do you have for 2025?

How is your training to going?
