Get stronger & tighter

in 2 weeks

strength kickstart

A bootcamp for women in midlife

Spring has sprung—

but you’re not ready.

It’s here.

Birds are chirping. Flowers are blooming. Tomatoes are tomating.

For women in midlife, this can be the most daunting time of year.

Because we’ll need to wear shorts. And go on beach vacations. And generally, emerge from our winter dens to make our appearance in society again.

And it seems like no matter what we do, we feel soft and bloated.

Our clothes don’t fit the same.

Our waistlines are expanding.

Things just aren’t “springing” back the way they used to.

But summer is around the corner, and toning up is now an emergency.

Feeling more confident in your body would go a long way towards making this season a happier one, but the cardio you’re putting in isn’t going to cut it.

If you’re over 35, you need strength training—with heavy weights—and proper nutrition to build a strong and shapely body by summer.

And you can start making visible changes in just 2 weeks with Strength Kickstart.

Let’s head into summer with confidence—not dread.

Introducing

Strength kickstart

Strength Kickstart is a 2-week outdoor strength bootcamp for women, hosted by Coach Lisa of Mostly Well, in Austin.

The bootcamp was designed to help women in midlife ramp up their fitness routine and get stronger & more toned in two weeks.

Workouts are hypertrophy-focused, meaning we’ll use heavy dumbbells to sculpt and build muscle.

What’s included:

  • 60-minute, full-body strength training sessions on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings at 7:30 a.m.

  • Personalized protein & calorie goals

  • A spreadsheet tracker to monitor your progress

  • A PDF of our workouts, so you can continue progressing after two weeks

No, you’re not going to dramatically transform your body in two weeks. But in this bootcamp, you can:

  • Feel tighter in your midsection

  • Build meaningful strength

  • Improve your confidence and energy

  • Start feeling more toned

  • Strengthen your core

  • Practice good nutrition habits

  • Prove to yourself that you can be consistent

Hi! I’m Coach Lisa…

Here’s Why You Can Trust me.

I’m a NASM Certified Personal Trainer, AFAA Group Fitness Instructor, and Texas Masters Boxing Champion.

I was active for decades during my corporate career—but perimenopause brought trouble building muscle, belly fat, stiffer mornings, joint pain, slower recovery, and less resilience to stress.

Through trial and error, I learned how to train efficiently for this stage of life. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been in my 40s, sleeping and eating better, and in control of my body.

With workouts designed to build muscle and shed fat, I now help other women in midlife feel in control of their bodies again so they can live their fullest, most confident lives.

who’s invited

Strength Kickstart is for Austin-area women who want to quickly tone up and build strength. This program is ideal for women who:

  • Have been struggling to stay consistent with strength training

  • Like the accountability & community of group fitness classes

  • Want to feel stronger and firmer before summer hits

  • Can commit to being at Richard Lord’s Boxing Gym from 7:30 - 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday

  • Are willing to log their food to maximize results

  • Can exercise for 60 minutes outdoors

If you’re ready to ramp up your strength routine, this program is for you.

Why is it only $227 $177?

Most trainer-led group strength training sessions are ~$40 per class, and personal training costs anywhere from $75-150 per session. But I’d like to help as many women as possible get stronger this season. If you sign up by April 10, you’ll only pay $177, or less than $30 per class. But hurry, because after April 10, the price goes up to $227.

Plus, unlike other bootcamps, you’ll get a PDF of the workouts so you can continue to progressing after these 2 weeks.

I’ve noticed a lot of physical changes. I’ve been getting stronger in my arms and legs and have more stamina to do active things I enjoy.

  • We’ll strength train 3x a week on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings. You’re welcome to do cardio, yoga or Pilates on your own outside of that, but it’s not required.

  • They will be plenty challenging for all fitness levels, but I will have modifications for beginners, and you can select dumbbell sizes that are appropriately challenging for your personal fitness level.

  • Each workout will incorporate dumbbell-based, full-body strength, with a focus on hypertrophy (maximizing muscle growth) through low reps and heavy weights. “Heavy” is relative: you will select dumbbells that are an appropriate challenge for you.

  • Yes! Strength training is usually beneficial for arthritis, helping improve joint stability and overall strength. Several of my clients with arthritis have made great progress and felt stronger in their bodies.

    As always, check with your doctor before starting if you have any medical restrictions, and all workouts can be modified to meet your needs.

frequently asked questions

  • No. Strength training is one of the most important things you can do as you get older—and it’s never too late to start.

    I work with women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s who are building strength, improving energy, and feeling better in their bodies.

    All workouts can be modified to meet you where you are. If you have any injuries or medical conditions, it’s always a good idea to check with your doctor first.

  • Because we’ll be working out outside, I recommend bringing a sweat towel and water with electrolytes. You’re welcome to bring a mat if you like, but we will have workout mats available.

  • For best results, I will make personalized protein and calorie recommendations, and you should plan to log your food intake using the free MyFitnessPal app or a similar app.

  • May 5-16. We train on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings.
