Lasses That Lift and My Background

My background is in functional fitness.

Strong(wo)man — I competed, I coached, I co-coached a BWL Olympic weightlifting club.

And I am qualified to coach oly solo. I have been coaching oly lifting for 6 years.

I dabble in CrossFit, but I have to be careful with my hypermobility syndrome.

I still competed, though. I tried Hyrox, and I ran a group called Hyrox Squad, I coached X-fit classes, I did a running club for a bit, and then I came full circle back to strength. I still teach circuit classes.

But education on strength training for longevity remains at the forefront.

Instead of trying to do it all, I niched down. I was diagnosed with ADHD and it fortified my reason for finding a sensory-sensitive gym!

One day, I’d like to have my own! That’s my pipeline dream!

In the meantime, I’m in a women’s health mentorship — trying to help as many people as I can!

I will be taking another course too to help my strong mums and mummy lasses that lift.
