Supporting healthy ageing with expert guidance
Menopause brings significant changes to your body, from declining oestrogen levels affecting bone density to shifts in muscle mass and metabolism. Strength training is one of the most powerful tools you have to support your body through this transition and beyond.
Why Strength Training Matters During Menopause
As oestrogen levels decline, women can lose up to 20% of their bone density in the first five to seven years after menopause. Muscle mass also decreases, affecting metabolism, strength, and balance. Regular strength training helps to counteract these changes, supporting bone density, maintaining muscle mass, and reducing the risk of falls and fractures.
Maintaining muscle strength through menopause and beyond has a profound impact on your quality of life in later years. Women who prioritize strength training are significantly more likely to maintain their independence well into their 70s, 80s, and beyond. Strong muscles support everyday activities that many of us take for granted – getting up from a chair, carrying shopping, climbing stairs, playing with grandchildren, or simply moving around your home with confidence.
The strength you build now isn’t just about today – it’s an investment in remaining active, independent, and able to do the things you love for decades to come.

What We Offer
Our menopause strength training service is delivered by Amy, who holds a Master’s degree in Strength and Conditioning and specializes in supporting women with strength training after birth and during and after menopause. This means your programme will be expertly designed to build strength, while being fully adapted for any pelvic floor concerns, pre-existing injuries or medical conditions. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never exercised before, or if you’re a regular gym-goer.
What to Expect
In your first session, Amy will:
- Discuss your health history and any concerns including pelvic floor symptoms
- Assess your current strength, movement patterns, and fitness level
- Understand your goals and what you'd like to achieve
- Determine whether you'll be training at home or in a gym and what equipment you have access to
- Design a personalized strength training programme tailored specifically to you
- Teach you how to exercise safely and comfortably, so you feel confident to do it by yourself
Your Programme
You’ll receive a comprehensive, written programme that you can follow independently between sessions. This will include clear instructions, appropriate progressions, and modifications where needed.
Follow-Up Sessions
We recommend review sessions every 4-6 weeks to keep you focused, reassess your progress, and advance your programme as you get stronger. These sessions ensure you’re continuing to challenge your body appropriately and safely, while maintaining good technique and addressing any concerns that arise.
