Testimonials:

“The Strength Training Foundations for Perimenopause 8 week course has made a big difference to my fitness and strength. Within a few weeks I noticed I was getting stronger, I had more energy and my balance improved and I now have toned upper arms, bum and thighs.
Fiona is really friendly and easy to talk to and during our 1:1 sessions I learnt about the importance of protein in my diet and we discussed any exercises I was having trouble with and talked about ways to modify them to suit me.

Now, for the first time in my life, I actually want to exercise and move, and I have even started rock climbing.
It has had a real positive impact on my life and set me on the path to continuing to build my strength and fitness through Perimenopause and beyond.”

“Never thought I'd ever do online exercise training. Then I accidentally fell across Fiona Pitt. We had a couple of conversations via zoom. Through these, I found Fiona to hold empathy and passion for what she does. So I decided to sign up and give her program a go.

Over the last 12 weeks, Fiona has written 3 personal training sessions per week for me. These helped me to become motivated to go to the gym regularly, and I looked forward to these sessions.

I received the sessions via an easy to use APP, which I loaded onto my phone. I would also get email reminders, I was able to message Fiona through the APP, which made things easy. If I missed a session or didn't go to the gym for a few days, Fiona would check in.

The PT sessions came in an easy to understand format with videos to show me what to do. If I wasn't sure, Fiona would send a video of herself doing the movement, which was great.

The workouts were designed specifically to my individual needs and took into account my past injuries, limitations and training history.

The program included a variety of traditional bodybuilding style workouts as well as some fun and challenging CrossFit workouts, which I enjoyed.

To my surprise, the more sessions I did, the more I wanted to do them and challenge myself.

What I liked was that if I missed a session due to being tired, sore or menopausal issues, Fiona would encourage me to take extra rest days &/or adjust the programming when needed, which shows compassion and understanding.

I highly recommend online personal training with Fiona.”

“Thank you to @theintuitivept for all her skill and patience as I slowly worked my way through a 24 workout programme (which I think was meant to take eight weeks - I took about 14!)

On paper that probably doesn't sound that great, but here are 10 things I learned:

Lifting weights is not reserved for The Incredible Hulk or people who look like him.

Exercise really is a mood booster. This is not just something that annoying people in lycra say. At times I felt better than I have in years

This sort of annoyingly hard push-yourself-in-a-good-way exercise is much more mood boosting for me than walking.

Taking things at your own pace is OK. Think of the hare and the tortoise!

Being stronger physically can make you feel stronger mentally and emotionally

Apparently this kind of weight-bearing exercise is massively important for bone density and health.

You don't have to live on the same continent as your PT - Fiona lives in Australia - it didn't stop her prodding/encouraging me when I fell off and celebrating with me when I got back on.

When you exercise your children become more interested in exercise. This is a mixed blessing if they decide to try your dumbbells then drop them

Exercising makes you more likely to reach for a vegetable, more likely to drink water, and more likely to wear moisturiser (I haven't fact checked this one)

It's acceptable to bribe yourself with the promise of cappuccino - turns out there's a way to work coffee into pretty much anything ”

“Shout out to The Intuitive Personal Trainer ... helping me get back on track after a few years of study on top of work, I found myself really run down.

Fiona Pitt created a tailored strength program for me to do at home when it suited me, which took the pressure off trying to get to classes when I was really over constant scheduling.

Enjoying exercise again, worked around injury and just happily completed a 70 km walk on the Larapinta trail.

Definitely recommend it if you want some flexible support to suit you. Thanks Fi! X “
