I’m now 45, and I’ve had coworkers ask how I got my arms looking like they do, and they’re in their 20s! That’s a win. I can’t recommend these programs enough and thank you!

Terese W.

The internal strength and awareness of growth is amazing. All these 45-ish women around me are hopping on weight loss journeys and I’m watching them get smaller while they eat lettuce. I really don’t feel any pressure to join them. My butt fills out my jeans and I can do lunges that I previously couldn’t do. And I can out wall-sit my girls!

At just shy of 40 years old and 9 months postpartum from my third C-section (and an exercise restricted pregnancy due to placenta previa), I started playing women’s soccer again for the first time in FOURTEEN YEARS! My cardio help up so much better than I expected and the only training I had been doing was your program!

Elle M.

I am a mom of 3 grown children. I started the program at 50 years old after having a hysterectomy and it was around when I had my kids. I think it would have saved me from several back injuries. Thank you so much — I am so much stronger. This program is changing lives for the better!!!

On my 60th birthday my goal was to climb Cathedral Rock, which I did! I could not have done it without getting in a little bit of shape before going. Ashley explains the “why” with each workout. She has kept me motivated and I look forward to seeing what is next on the agenda. It has worked wonders for my 60 year old body and I like it.

Just letting you know this Get Grandma Strong is on week ten of your program. Before I started I couldn’t do a squat due to two meniscus tears. I didn’t want surgery so my daughter suggested your program!

Rosa M.

Thanks Ashley. I love your program. I’ve been doing it for over 5 years and I’m so strong and now quite accepting of my body. Yeah I still have rough days and turning 40 has come with a lot more niggles than I thought but I am so much happier in me than I was 3 years ago — thank you!
