After 35, your body responds differently. Your hormones have changed. Your metabolism has shifted. Most programmes were not designed for this. ELEVATE was.

"I know what actually works for women's bodies after 35 — and what doesn't. ELEVATE is built entirely on that knowledge."

Hey, I'm Lynne. I've spent over 10 years helping women build stronger bodies, healthier habits and unshakeable confidence. As a certified fitness instructor and sports & exercise nutritionist specialising in gut health, I've worked with thousands of members across every life stage.

I designed ELEVATE specifically for women navigating the changes that come after 35 — because this life stage deserves a programme built for it, not adapted from one that wasn't.

Sound Familiar?

You're working hard.
But nothing is shifting.

After 35, declining oestrogen changes everything — your metabolism, your muscle mass, your energy and your mood. It's not you. It's biology. And once you understand it, you can work with it.

Sound familiar

Training just as hard but seeing far fewer results

Oestrogen decline slows muscle protein synthesis and reduces insulin sensitivity — meaning your body responds differently to the same effort you've always put in. The solution isn't more effort. It's the right kind of effort.

Or this

Stubborn weight around the middle that won't budge

Visceral fat increases with oestrogen decline regardless of diet or cardio. The answer is progressive resistance training and blood sugar management — exactly what ELEVATE is built around.

Or maybe

Energy crashes, poor sleep and relentless brain fog

Cortisol dysregulation is common in perimenopause. The right type of training — combined with daily walking and targeted nutrition — is one of the most clinically supported tools for restoring energy and sleep quality.

And often

Feeling completely disconnected from your body

When your body changes without your permission it can feel like a stranger's. ELEVATE rebuilds that relationship — through strength you can feel, movement that energises and mindset work that genuinely sticks.

What Is ELEVATE?

Six weeks.
Three tools. One method.

ELEVATE combines three evidence-based training modalities specifically chosen for their impact on body composition, bone density and hormonal health in women over 35.

🏋️

Dumbbell Strength Training

Progressive resistance sessions to rebuild lean muscle, boost resting metabolism and improve bone density. The single most important training intervention for women with declining oestrogen.

🫙

Kettlebell Conditioning

KB swings between every exercise pair create a powerful metabolic stimulus — burning more calories, raising growth hormone and firing the posterior chain in a way dumbbells alone cannot match.

🧘

Pilates

Deep core activation, pelvic floor strength and postural restoration. Pilates targets the stabilising muscles perimenopause most commonly weakens — and creates the lean, sculpted look strength alone cannot.

🚶

10,000 Daily Steps

Daily walking keeps cortisol low, improves insulin sensitivity and supports fat loss without stressing your body. NEAT (Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis) accounts for up to 15% of daily energy expenditure.

Three phases.
Six weeks of progress.

Each phase builds on the last — progressively increasing intensity, weight and challenge so your body is always adapting.

01
Phase One
Weeks 1 & 2

Prime & Activate

Learn the movements, find your weights and build the daily habits that carry you through all six weeks. Higher reps, Pilates-led sessions to fire deep stabilisers.

Build & Burn

Progressive overload begins. Heavier weights, tempo training and metabolic drive — this is where fat loss and lean muscle building happen simultaneously.

"I am almost 47 years old. I have been more of a cardio person, always wanted to do strength training — and for the first time in my life, I've been sticking with strength training three to four times a week using Lynne's routines. Thank you for being such a light in this world."

★★★★★

"I have PCOS and Hashimoto's hypothyroidism. Before starting I struggled to lose weight despite eating healthily and walking daily. I finished week two and, for the second week in a row, I LOST weight. I tend to stick with things that make me feel strong and well — and I am definitely feeling that here."

"I cannot believe how my shape has changed. Even pre-kids, I never had ab muscles developing. I always knew they were there, hiding — waiting for the right time. With the help of my hustling gals, they have appeared!"

Six Weeks From Now

Imagine how
you will feel.

This is what six weeks of consistent progressive training, daily movement and hormone-aware nutrition actually produces in women over 35.

01

Lifting heavier than you thought possible

By Week 6 you'll be lifting significantly more than Week 1 — and feeling it in everything from carrying shopping to climbing stairs.

02

Waking up with energy instead of exhaustion

Progressive training combined with daily walking measurably improves sleep quality from Week 2 onward.

03

Clothes fitting differently — not just the scale

Body recomposition shows in how you look and feel before the number on the scale moves. You'll notice it first.

04

Standing taller — literally

Six weeks of Pilates and upper back work measurably improves posture. Members consistently report this as one of the first visible changes.

05

A calmer, more stable mood

Progressive resistance training is one of the most evidence-supported interventions for anxiety and mood dysregulation in perimenopause.

06

Knowing exactly what your body needs

Every science snippet builds your understanding of your own physiology. You'll finish with knowledge that serves you for life.

Ready to feel like this in six weeks? Your stronger self is waiting.

Starts Monday 22nd June · Beginner & advanced tracks available
More Than Physical

The mindset
is part of the method.

Every single session includes three mindset elements — because lasting change starts in the mind before it shows in the body.

🌬

Morning Breath

30 seconds of intentional breathwork before every session. Lowers cortisol and centres your focus before you lift a single weight.

Daily Affirmation

A powerful statement with every session. Three phases, three themes — Roots, Strength and Rise. By Week 6 these become how you actually think.

📝

Journaling Prompt

Two minutes after every session. The woman who finishes Week 6 will know herself differently to the woman who started Week 1.

No. ELEVATE has a dedicated Beginner Track designed for women returning to exercise or newer to strength training. You'll train 3 days per week with more recovery built in, and every exercise has progressions and modifications. You don't need to be fit to start — you just need to start.
Yes. Every kettlebell swing in ELEVATE can be performed with a dumbbell — hold it vertically by one end with both hands and use the same hip-hinge movement. Full technique guidance is provided in your very first session.
ELEVATE was designed with perimenopause and menopause in mind from day one. The training format — progressive resistance training with daily low-intensity walking — is specifically supported by peer-reviewed research for women with declining oestrogen.
