Why is Strength Training Beneficial For Women?
Strength training offers numerous health benefits for women beyond just aesthetic goals. Prioritising strength training can help increase lean muscle mass, enhance body composition, and rebuild muscle tone, all while improving confidence in your own skin. It’s not just a focus on looking strong but feeling strong, too.
Attending strength training sessions helps restore core strength, supports proper muscle recovery, and assists with muscle growth, which becomes especially important as we age. Strength training can also improve mental health by reducing stress, boosting mood, and helping you feel more resilient in everyday life.
By participating in group training with a vibrant and supportive community like Ladies Who Lift, you can enjoy fun training sessions that help women build confidence and overcome gym anxiety while learning proper lifting techniques. Whether your aim is to lose weight, tone up, or simply feel empowered in your fitness journey, strength training is suitable for women of all ages and fitness levels and offers incredible benefits that extend far beyond the gym.

Ladies Who Lift FAQs
Do I need weight lifting experience to join the class?
No prior weightlifting experience is needed! Our classes are designed to be strength training suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some lifting background. Our expert coaches will tailor exercises to your level, providing clear guidance to help you learn correct technique safely and confidently.
Will I have individual attention in this class?
Yes! While you’ll enjoy the benefits of group training in a vibrant and supportive community, you will also receive personal coaching and corrections during each class. This ensures you’re lifting safely and effectively, getting the personal training value without the full 1-1 price.
Do I have to attend every single class to see results?
Consistency helps, but you don’t have to attend every class to see progress. Attending strength training sessions regularly (1-2 times per week) will help increase muscle mass, restore core strength, and improve your technique. Many women see results even when attending around their busy schedules.
What if I have gym anxiety?
Our classes are designed to help women build confidence and feel comfortable in a gym environment. You’ll train in a supportive space with other women who understand your goals, helping you overcome gym anxiety while prioritising your strength training in a fun, encouraging environment.
What if I have specific goals, like toning or muscle growth?
Whether your goal is increasing lean muscle mass, improving body composition, or building strength for better everyday function, our expert coaches will guide you with exercises tailored to your goals. We will also help with advice around proper muscle recovery and how to optimise your training outside the sessions for your specific needs.
