Who it's for
- Women who've never lifted, or stuck to cardio
- Anyone who's tried the weights area and felt lost
- Women who want to carry, lift and hike without their back complaining
- Experienced lifters who want a proper plan
What we'll work on
- The main lifts: squat, deadlift, press, row and carry
- Good technique first, then steadily heavier weights
- Core and glute strength that supports your back
- Mobility, so you move through a full range
What a session looks like
Every session has a plan. We warm up with the mobility work your body needs, then move through your main lifts and a few supporting exercises.
I use progressive overload, which just means doing a little more each week: a bit more weight, an extra rep, or better control. Every session is logged, so you can see how far you've come.
