Women 50+ have a different focus when it comes to fitness, compared to those under 50.
Over 50, we have much different goals, objectives, lifestyle and even some restrictions. This could be basic functional movements such as reaching, bending or twisting. Or it could be working around a serious injury or disability. We also have different nutritional needs that need to be addressed.
And maybe we have to do some work on our physical & mental fitness simultaneously.
My customized approach allows me to get to know my clients, their goals, and work with them on total physical and mental fitness.
Goals can range from being able to move freely, without pain, to building muscle and toning their body. All the while, working on nutrition needs, understanding/working through medical conditions, and identifying and addressing the bridges to success.
At 59, I have walked the journey of turning my life around physically and mentally, and have never felt better, or more confident, in my life.
The Program is all about YOU, and what you need to meet your goals.
Location
I will Coach you from anywhere! We can meet virtually online, or in person at your home (Scottsdale/Phoenix area only.)
Program
The program is completely customized to your goals, abilities and budget.
However the first two sessions have a standard look & feel:
Session 1:
We get acquainted in this one hour COMPLIMENTARY session!
We will get to know each other, your goals, abilities, restrictions, basic medical history & lite workout, if appropriate (no equipment required!)
We will review Program Pricing/Plans that work best for you.
Session 2:
This session kicks off your transformation!
I will come to the session with a customized plan to get you started for first 4 weeks. This will include session dates, times, and expectations.
Equipment
Even if you don't have any exercise equipment, you can still get started! We can determine what equipment you need during our initial consultation.
My journey began when I was diagnosed with prediabetes in 2016 at 51.
I was 40lbs overweight, taking multiple medications, depressed, anxious, tired, and felt like a beached whale.
For over 30 years, I made the tour of equipment and exercise. I was getting off and on treadmills (literally), following the latest fads including aerobics, stairmasters, Zumba, organized national workout classes, videos and CDs that focused on (yawn) sit ups and stretching.
No exercise program was exciting for me. I hated treadmills and stair masters. Every exercise 'du jour' was so boring for me.
The prediabetes was my wake up call. My doctor wanted to put me on medication. I couldn’t see myself on a 7th medication…for life! I researched alternatives for prediabetes and found that weight training helped ‘do something’ to reduce my A1c.
I knew nothing about weight training. I thought that was only for big bulky men who compete in weight lifting and take steroids.
Little did I know the passion and enjoyment I would get out of working out with weights would completely change my lifestyle on multiple levels.
I found a trainer, and began working out. It was slow at first, but I found working with weights leant a variety of workout options, and an opportunity to challenge myself to do more/better.
After 90 days of weight work, I was retested and my A1c dropped BELOW the pre-diabetic level!
I progressed to eliminating ALL BUT ONE medication (med for dry eyes.) I worked on my mental fitness. Through Life Coaching, I worked to realign my thoughts and priorities, creating a lifestyle that is now balanced and intentional.
Today I consider myself a warrior; and physically and mentally sound-at 59.
If you are struggling to become physically and mentally fit, I know what it’s like to be in those shoes.
If you want somebody to help you through your journey - that’s already been successful going through the journey - reach out to me let's talk!
