StrongHer Fitness for Women 40+

My love for strength training began over 30 years ago and the benefits have remained with me into my 50s.

I help busy professional women reclaim their strength, energy, and confidence in perimenopause and menopause through my 4-Pillar Blueprint — without dieting or a gym. I use my knowledge and expertise to help women in through the stages of menopause to achieve their fitness goals and live a healthier lifestyle through exercise, good nutrition and healthy habits.

Being strong is something I’ll never get tired of.

Not because I need to hit a certain number or prove anything to anyone else.

It’s because strength gives me options.

It lets me move through life with confidence, stability and trust in what my body can do.

And at 58, building strength isn’t about pushing myself to exhaustion or chasing my 20 year old self.

It’s about me building a body that supports the life I am living now and the years I want to enjoy later.

It’s having the strength to hold my own and step in for someone else when they need it.

And that’s the strength I’ll always choose for as long as I am able. 💪🏾

And that’s the strength I help women build, one consistent habit at a time.

Save this if strength matters to you too.

“If I’m losing weight on a GLP-1, do I still need to strength train?”

Yes. You. Do.

If you’re using a GLP-1 medication and seeing the scale move, that’s one piece of the picture but it’s not the whole strategy.

GLP-1s can support weight loss by reducing appetite, but they don’t protect muscle.

And in midlife, muscle matters more than ever.

Muscle supports metabolism, blood sugar regulation, bone density, balance, and long-term independence. Without strength training, weight loss can come at the cost of strength, energy and metabolic health.

GLP-1s can be a tool.
Strength training is what protects your body.

If you’re navigating weight loss in midlife, the goal isn’t just to weigh less. It’s to stay strong.

If you’re in menopause, you probably already know you need to move more.
The problem isn’t motivation.

It’s time.

So here’s where I’d start 👇🏽

1️⃣ Redefine what counts as movement
If it gets your body moving and your heart rate up, it counts. Walking, short strength sessions,….stop waiting for “perfect.”

2️⃣ Attach steps to what you already do
Walk while you’re on phone calls.
Add a 10-minute walk after your morning coffee.
Pace while dinner is cooking.

3️⃣ Choose consistency over intensity
Your midlife body doesn’t need hour-long exhausting workouts.
It needs steady, repeatable movement that supports hormones, joints, and energy.

You don’t need more hours in the day.
You need a plan that fits the life you’re ACTUALLY living.

That’s exactly how I coach women in menopause: simple, realistic, effective.

If you’ve been watching, saving, and saying “I’ll start soon”, this is your moment.

EVOLVE enrollment ends 1/12.
This is your chance to build strength, energy, and confidence with guidance designed for menopause.

DM “EVOLVE” or apply now. I’d love to support you.

Our Story

Welcome to my page! My name is Patricia Greaves and I am an educator, avid Fitness Enthusiast, Figure Competitor, wife and mother. My love for weight training began over 25 years ago when I was in college and won the titles of Ms. Baruch and Ms. John Jay. After having my last child, what began as a journey to get my body back transformed into an interest into becoming a competitive bodybuilder. I entered my first national natural body building competition in 2010, earning a 3rd place trophy in the Ms. Fit Body Division for my age group (40+). This experience of placing in my very first competition heightened my fervor towards fitness and strength training. Since then, I have participated in 6 competitions and earned a pro card (which requires winning the amateur division). The natural correlation for me has also been the self study of eating right, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and openly sharing healthy tips for exercise and nutrition. My goal is to earn another pro card as a 50+ competitor and to one day succeed Ernestine Shepherd’s record as the oldest female body builder.
