Exercise physiology is the backbone of my approach. It enables me to design personalized workouts grounded in science, ensuring safety and effectiveness. Understanding the physiological nuances unique to women allows for a tailored approach that aligns with individual goals and stages of life.

As someone who must eat gluten-free and a gluten-free recipe creator, I recognize the profound impact nutrition has on overall well-being. Offering delicious and nutritious gluten-free recipes complements the fitness journey, catering to those with gluten sensitivities and promoting a healthy, enjoyable dietary lifestyle. It was also a difficult transition and especially when fuelling for sport – so I wanted to integrate this into my business.

t's a myth worth busting! Women of all ages can benefit from strength training. Lifting weights enhances bone density, strength metabolism, and overall well-being. My mission is to debunk stereotypes, emphasizing that strength is not bound by age and every woman deserves the empowerment that comes with evidence informed exercise training. Or, just watch the movie NYAD and get back to me.

My journey in sports science began with a passion for movement and a desire to empower women. I realized the need for specialized guidance tailored to females at every stage of life, from pre to postmenopausal. Witnessing the transformative impact of evidence-based practices on women's lives fueled my dedication to this specialization.

In my practice, evidence-informed decisions are at the core of every step. When tailoring programs for specific goals such as running, swimming, or skiing, I meticulously choose workouts based on an individual's fitness level, available training time, and the unique demands of their sport or goal. Given the dynamic nature of research, I stay consistently updated, utilizing the methodologies ingrained in me during graduate school. I immerse myself in a topic, staying current through ongoing education, and regularly engage with maintenance articles in my specialized areas. This approach ensures that every decision, whether adjusting training plans based on tracking and testing or selecting appropriate monitoring tools, is guided by the latest evidence. The goal is always to empower females with knowledge, making informed decisions that resonate with their individual needs and aspirations.

Fun is a non-negotiable! I infuse humour and creativity into workouts to make them enjoyable, especially those not strength training to complement their sport. It's about celebrating every milestone, embracing the joy of movement, and creating a positive space where women feel motivated and empowered. AND testing and not guessing. Educating women on what kind of training outcomes are expected in each phase and when rest and tapering is necessary in addition to meting each client where they are at is essential. Learning the ”WHY” behind the recommendation is extremely impactful for training success.
