Strong Starts
A good place to start if fitness feels a bit much.
Short, plain-English guides from Jane on strength training, confidence, postnatal considerations and building a routine you can actually come back to. They're here for the questions you might want answered before you walk into a session.
How to start strength training when you feel unfit
A beginner strength training guide for women who want to get stronger without jumping straight into a busy gym floor.
What to expect at your first personal training session
What happens in a first 1-to-1 PT session with Jane, including goals, movement checks, technique coaching and next steps.
Returning to exercise after having a baby
A careful guide to returning to exercise after having a baby, with safety checks, realistic first steps and supportive options for mums.
Why resistance bands work well for beginners
How resistance bands help beginner women build strength, confidence and control without needing a full gym setup.
How often should beginners train?
A realistic weekly training rhythm for women starting fitness, strength work or classes for the first time in a while.
Why this exists
Starting can feel harder than the training itself.
A lot of women don't need more fitness noise. They need a clear first step, a bit of reassurance and a trainer who won't make them feel silly for asking basic questions.
Strong Starts is where Jane answers those early questions, so you can decide whether class, 1-to-1 PT or online coaching feels like the right fit.
The advice is practical rather than dramatic. If something needs proper medical or clinical input, I'll always point you towards that instead of pretending a guide can cover everything.
