Personal Trainers Supporting Women Through Menopause
Train with Knowledge. Coach with Confidence
Menopause isn’t a barrier to fitness—it’s a new training phase that requires informed, supportive, and hormone-savvy coaching.
As a personal trainer, you are in a unique position to help women thrive physically and mentally during one of the most transformational stages of their lives.
But here's the truth:
What worked in her 20s or 30s might not work now.
From fluctuating hormones and stubborn weight gain to joint pain, fatigue, anxiety, and disrupted sleep, your midlife clients are facing real physiological changes—and your approach needs to evolve with them.
Why It Matters
80% of women experience symptoms that affect daily life.
Many stop exercising altogether because they feel it’s no longer working—or it’s making them feel worse.
With the right training approach, exercise can reduce symptoms, protect bone and heart health, boost metabolism, and improve mood and cognition. This is where you come in!
What You’ll Learn (and Why You’ll Stand Out)
Discover how shifting hormones like oestrogen and progesterone affect everything from training capacity to recovery and results. You’ll learn the most effective types of exercise to support bone density, strength, and metabolism during perimenopause and beyond. We’ll explore how to adapt workouts to match a woman’s energy, cycle, and symptoms—and how to spot important red flags that might require referral. Just as crucially, you’ll gain the tools to communicate with empathy and build real trust during what can be a vulnerable and confusing time.
