Fit & Able Fitness

Fit & Able Fitness PT and Online Coaching for women 40+ and neurodivergent adults. Supportive, realistic guidance. Ever wondered what it would be like to be fit & able.

My journey began with wanting to be fit & able for my children, and now Paula and I help others do the same. I did, I wanted to be around to see my children grow up, I wanted to be able to play in the park with them, to take part rather than holding the coats. Get in touch if you want this too.

Quick one, me (53) and Paula (54) testing a few core moves we’re thinking of adding into Fitcamp 😅

We always try stuff ourselves first, if it doesn’t feel good, or doesn’t do what it’s meant to, it doesn’t make the cut.

If the gym feels intimidating, don’t wing it.

Have a tiny script for the first five minutes so your brain can settle:

Arrive, 2-minute warm-up, one easy set of your first exercise.

Once you’ve started, confidence usually builds.

Save this if you ever feel nervous walking in.

Your journey, your pace.

Some weeks you feel great, some weeks you don’t — and that’s normal.

The answer isn’t quitting, it’s having two versions of the plan.

Plan A is your full session.

Plan B protects the habit:

Two exercises, a short walk, done.

Consistency comes from flexibility.

Save this for the lower-energy weeks.

Your journey, your pace.

Last week, 5 brand new people booked in for a free Fitcamp trial.

Their ages ranged from 41 to 68, and I can pretty much guarantee they all had the same thought before that first session, “Am I going to feel out of place?”

These screenshots are the messages we received afterwards, and honestly, they hit me right in the chest.

Because it’s not just about getting sweaty, it’s about walking into a room, feeling welcomed straight away, being shown what to do, having options if something doesn’t suit you, and leaving thinking, “I’m actually glad I came.”

If you’ve been hovering over “message” for weeks, if your confidence has taken a knock, or if you keep telling yourself you need to “get fit first”, this is your sign to stop waiting.

If nutrition feels messy, start with ONE habit that makes everything easier: protein at breakfast and lunch.

You don’t need perfection — you need a steady anchor that supports energy, muscle, and cravings.

A rough guide: a palm-sized portion at meals (adjust to your needs).

Save this and try it for 7 days.

Your journey, your pace.

Waiting to feel ready keeps you stuck.

A better plan: set a 10-minute timer and start your first exercise.

If you still feel dreadful at 10 minutes, you can stop — but most people find the hardest part was starting.

This is how consistency gets built on real-life days.

Save this for the next wobble.

Your journey, your pace.

Progress doesn’t need a big jump.

A simple rule: add ONE rep first.

When you can hit the top of your rep range with tidy form, increase the weight slightly and drop reps again.

Steady, measurable progress without guessing.

Save this and try it on your next main lift.

Your journey, your pace.

Low energy day?

Don’t bin the whole week.

Keep the habit with a minimum session:

Two exercises, Two sets, Steady pace, Done.

You’ll keep momentum without needing a perfect workout.

Starting point: one lower-body move + one pull.

Save this for the next time life gets busy.

Your journey, your pace. Here for you, Michael & Paula 💛

If you’re already planning to “start on Monday”… this is your friendly nudge that you don’t have to wait. 😄

You don’t need a perfect day. You just need a small next step:
✅ Add a bit of protein to your next meal
✅ Drink an extra glass of water
✅ Get a 10–15 minute walk in
✅ Plan one simple meal for tomorrow

Small actions stack up fast — and they count even when life’s busy. Your journey, your pace. You’ve got this!

Huge thank you to Susan for this lovely shout-out 💛

One of the things we’re proudest of at Fit & Able Fitness is the vibe Susan describes: supportive, welcoming, and zero judgement. You don’t need to be “fit” to start — you just need to start, and we’ll help you build from there.

If you’re in Eltham and curious about our Fitcamps (small groups, coached properly, options for all levels), we offer a free Fitcamp trial so you can see if it’s right for you.

👇 Comment “FITCAMP” and we’ll send you the details and how to book your free trial.

As 2025 comes to a close, I just want to say thank you.

Thank you to everyone who trained with us, checked in, messaged when things felt tough, and kept showing up even when motivation was low and life was busy.

For a lot of people, December isn’t a “fresh start” feeling — it’s reflection, stress, tiredness, family stuff, and trying to hold things together. If that’s you, you’re not behind. You’re human.

If you want a simple focus for January, make it this:

✅ One small habit you can repeat.
Not a massive overhaul. Just something that builds momentum.

Examples:
👉2 sessions a week (Fitcamp, SGPT or gym)
👉a 10–20 minute walk most days
👉protein with breakfast
👉water before coffee
👉bedtime a little earlier

New beginnings don’t have to be loud. They just have to be real.

Here’s to 2026 — steady progress, stronger bodies, calmer minds, and doing it together.

Happy New Year ❤️
Michael & Paula

You did more than you think

Before you rush into new goals, pause and notice what you’ve already handled. Most people underestimate their progress because it didn’t look perfect.

Quick reflection prompts:
- What did I keep doing, even when life was busy?
- What did I learn about what works for me?
- What’s one habit I want to keep into January?

Small wins count: showing up, setting boundaries, choosing rest, starting again after a wobble.
