Fi Modderman - Fitness & Health Coach

Fi Modderman - Fitness & Health Coach I help you develop a healthy relationship to food, fitness and your body, so that you can just get on with enjoying the life you are here for! Wrong! You can.

I help women switch the internal narrative when it comes to their health and body, from "I can't," to "I can." It's from the inside that the real transformation happens. If you don't truly BELIEVE that you can have the body and health and energy you desire - then you won't. You won't stay consistent with the behaviour and lifestyle changes that need to happen externally - because hey, you believe deep down that you can't actually do it right! But we need to start not only with the 'outside world', but most importantly, your 'inside world'. What is going on in your head? So alongside the 'what to do' in terms of eating, exercise, stress and sleep, let's change all those life-long stories, patterns, routines and ways of being that you're currently accidentally stuck in. If you don't know those programs are running in the background keeping you stuck, how can you change them? That's why working alongside a coach, who's job it is to shine a light on those pesky stories that tell you you "can't", is what will ultimately have you doing what it takes to get you to where you want to be long term. But you MUST be ready and willing to do the work! Not just the work of loading up your plate with chicken and broccoli (blah really? No, we don't have to do that either!), but the work of catching reoccurring thoughts, beliefs and stories that no longer serve you - and rewire in the new ones that do! You can do this. I believe in you. And I'm here to help. Just message me to get started with coaching now. xx Fi

We are so busy being in the here and now, it's easy to forget about the future...

Who do you want to BE in that Future Version of you?
How do you want to FEEL?
What do you still want to be doing when your precious children are all grown up? Or having a family of their own?

When you do the maths, it makes it hit harder.

But the cool thing is, we get to decide - and take those small actions daily.

Because Future You ain't set in stone...

Lifting heavy weights can be intimidating as eff!

I get it - every week I'm having conversations with or working with, women over 40 who are either new to resistance training, or starting again after years of not doing it.

The fear that you're doing it wrong.
The fear that you'll hurt yourself.
The fear that you look stupid!

So here's how to start:

Find an experienced trainer to TEACH you the proper form, so that not only will you protect yourself from injury, but you'll actually lift as effectively as possible.

Start at a comfortable weight, where your body and brain can LEARN the motor-pattern first.

When you have nailed that motor-pattern, when you feel like your body is moving how it should, when your brain feels safe... THEN lift YOUR VERSION of heavy!

It should feel how I like to describe, as a 'satisfying challenge'.

It's when you start lifting weights at this level, that your body will respond with: more strength, muscle growth, bone density growth, better insulin management, your physique will change... the list goes on!

And if you're like me and don't want to join a gym, but want to learn how to safely strength train from home, send me a message or comment 'HOME' below, and I'll send you a voucher to get my Strong START program for free.

Where I walk you through step-by-step, my structured beginning home workout program.

There’s a reason fat loss after 40 has felt harder than it should.

There is nothing 'wrong' with you!

Most women over 40 trying to “lose weight” never get shown the full context.

They’re handed calorie deficits and cardio plans without understanding what those methods were actually built for. (So you know... those plans are for burning fuel/calories with the goal to lose WEIGHT on the scales. I'm not just referring to fat weight on the scales - just seeing that number going down, irrelevant of where that weight loss comes from! I feel like starting a rant about muscle loss with loss calorie diets that under-feed you protein and overfeed you on cardio, but I'll save that for another day...)

I digressed...

So when it doesn’t work the way it used to, they assume the issue is them.

But the real issue is muscle loss.

Once you understand that I hope you can make sense of your past attempts:
The gym phases (where you headed straight to the cardio area, because weights machines are seem intimidating as f*ck).
The spin classes.
The running phase you tried.
The cutting carbs (and joy outta your life).
The frustration when the scale barely moves.

If changing your body composition is important to you in midlife, then we need to build it on the right foundation.

Muscle!!
Strength.
Progressive overload (fitness jargon for making your resistance training harder/heavy).
Recovery.

And please, stop looking at the bathroom scale as your measure of progress. 🙏

If this gave you clarity you didn’t have before, comment “STRONG” or send me a message and I’ll share how I help women over 40 go from cardio-heavy training to strength-focused results in my membership.
