About

Prime Fitness is for women over 40 who want to

• achieve permanent weight loss
• slow down the aging process
• feel comfortable, strong, and sexy in their own bodies
• ramp up their energy level
• eat better
• start or stick to a fitness program
• and cut through the crap and confusion on these topics that the guru of the month tries to sell us.

I started this site because those are the things that interest me, and I love sharing my knowledge with other women.

I’ve discovered what I know not just through research but also good old trial and error. Like many people, I’ve tried a ton of popular diets and lost and regained weight several times. At my fattest, I weighed about 35 pounds more than I do now.

That’s embarrassing to admit to you because I thought I knew better.

What I’ve found is that it’s one thing to know what to do and another to actually do it—to really make the modifications necessary for a lifestyle change that sticks.

I’d like to share what I’ve learned along the way and some essential strategies for permanent weight loss.

Now, at 55, I’m in so much better shape than I was 10 years ago, when I hit my all-time heaviest weight.

And if you’re 40, 50, 60, or more, I want you to know it’s not too late to transform your body and your health.

Who am I?

I’m an NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and a fitness fanatic with a lifelong interest in the human body. For almost 30 years I worked fulltime as a writer and editor who happened to train some clients on the side. In 2012 I left my day job so I could focus on individual and group coaching for you, the woman over 40.

My passion is continuous learning about the body. My mission is sharing what I learn with others and serving as a catalyst, an encourager, and a motivator. My dream is to be part of the solution to the obesity crisis.

But enough about me!

I’d love to know what’s on your mind and what fascinates, confuses, motivates, and frustrates you about getting in shape. I want to hear about your fitness goals and successes and dreams.

Let’s talk.
