Get strong in
three sessions
a week.
Online strength coaching for busy women over 30. No cardio punishment, no food guilt, and a plan built around the life you actually have.
I've coached more than 200 women over the last eight years, after a decade competing in heptathlon at national level. Most of them started exactly where you are now.
You've tried being good. It never lasted.
- You start a plan on Monday and by week three, work and family have eaten it.
- You do the classes and the cardio, and your body looks the same as last year.
- You're tired of plans that only work if you eat less and feel guilty more.
None of that is a willpower problem. It's a plan problem, and plans can be fixed.
Four ways to start
Pick the one that fits where you are today. You can always move up.
What 1:1 coaching includes
- A programme written for your body, your kit and your calendar
- Video feedback on your lifts, so your form improves every week
- A weekly check-in where we adjust the plan to real life
- Nutrition guidance that adds food in before it takes anything out
- Message me any weekday and get an answer the same day
Three-month minimum, because that's how long real strength takes to show.

Hi, I'm Nell
For ten years my whole life was heptathlon. Seven events, twelve sessions a week, and a body I treated like a machine. When I stopped competing I did what most people do: I trained less, ate "better", and felt worse.
What pulled me out wasn't more discipline. It was lifting heavy things three times a week and eating like someone who trains. That's what I've taught ever since, mostly to women who were told strength training wasn't for them.
I'm based in Manchester and coach online, so where you live doesn't matter. How busy you are doesn't either. That part is my job.

Back at the track where I trained for a decade.
Questions I get a lot
I've never lifted weights. Is this for me?
Yes. About half my clients start as complete beginners. Every exercise comes with a video, and you send me clips of your lifts so I can correct your form from week one.
Do I need a gym?
No. A pair of adjustable dumbbells and a bench is enough for the first six months. If you do have a gym, we'll use it.
Will I have to follow a diet?
No meal plans and no banned foods. We set a protein target, build a few default meals you like, and leave the rest of your life alone.
What if I travel or miss a week?
Then we adjust. The Sunday check-in exists for exactly that, and the plan is rewritten around your week rather than the other way round.
Why is there an application?
I keep a small number of clients so everyone gets real attention. The four questions tell me if I'm the right coach for you, and they save us both a week of messages.
Can I cancel?
After the first three months you can stop any time with 14 days' notice. No contracts beyond that.
Three sessions a week. Let's build yours.
I open a handful of coaching places each month. Apply now and, if we're a fit, you'll pick a call time straight away.
