The benefits of strength training are incredible: more muscle, better energy, improved confidence, and a stronger body that’s ready for whatever mum-life throws at it.


But here’s the thing...


Are you actually getting STRONGER?
Are you actually getting STRONGER?

…there’s a difference between lifting weights to get stronger and just exercising with weights.


If you want real results. If you want stronger muscles, better performance, and lasting change follow our tips for training success:


1. Lift Heavy Enough


“Heavy” is different for everyone, but the key is to challenge your muscles. If you can already lift it easily, your body has no reason to adapt.


2. Progress Every Week

Strength comes from progression. That’s why our mums track their lifts each week — so they know exactly what to aim for next time. Little by little, those numbers go up, and so does your strength.


3. Repeat Your Workouts

Repetition helps your muscles adapt. We use four-week training phases so you can repeat your workouts during each phase and focus on lifting a little more each session. You can see your progress in black and white.


4. Perfect Your Form

It’s not just about moving weight from A to B. Good form ensures you’re actually working the muscles you want, getting the most from every rep.


5. Recover Well

Even if sleep is short (hello, mum-life), you can still take rest days to let your muscles repair and grow.


6. Fuel Your Training

Carbs give you the energy to train, and protein helps you recover and build muscle.


We work with mums to make small, sustainable nutrition changes that support training and everyday life.

Our Award-Winning Small Group Personal Training is built around these principles — so you get the most out of every session, even with a baby in tow. The result? Mums who feel strong, healthy, and confident in their postnatal bodies.


You don’t just want to exercise — you want to get stronger.
