The national center for health statistics says only about 26.9% of women strength train.
So 73% of you are leaving your health up to hope, luck & genetics.

- decreased visceral fat
- leaner appearance
- decreases risk of falls
- lowers risk of injury
- improves heart health
- helps manage blood sugar levels
- greater mobility/flexibility
- boosts self esteem
- increases bone density
- boosts mood
- improves brain health
- improves quality of life
If you’re if you’re reading this, you’re likely part of the 26.9% that strength trains.
Please share this with those in your life that are in the 73% group!
And I encourage those who’s habits aren’t dialed in, to start small with my most affordable coaching program where I’ll provide accountability to the habits that will yield the most results with the least amount of effort. Take a look here.
And if you’d like to discuss options of what it looks like to work together (for as little as $2/day), just set up a call. No matter what, you will come away with at least ONE actionable step to take control of your health (there’s no obligation to join any of my programs).
