Build Muscle. Get Toned. Age Strong.
The beginner-friendly strength training program for women in midlife who want to build muscle & strength, get toned, and age with power & independence - with options for home or gym workouts.
Notice your body changing & want to turn things around?
Have you noticed your body changing - getting weaker, less muscle tone, more belly fat - and your go-to workouts just don't work anymore?
Do you want to look more toned, get rid of belly fat and feel confident in your body again?
Do you want to preserve muscle as you diet, to strengthen your bones and fight osteoperosis, or to regulate blood sugar and prevent type 2 diabetes?
Are you watching your parents get weaker and more dependent - and you're determined to age differently?
Do you know you should start strength training but aren't sure how - you want a clear plan to follow that gets you results?
If any of this sounds familiar, you're in the right place.
Strength training is the key to staying strong, toned, and thriving!
I've been where you are!
I was working out and doing what I thought were all the right things, to suddenly lose my muscle tone and start looking... well, blobby.
But when I gave up my beloved BodyPump classes, stopped doing random online workouts, and started following a proper strength training program, I turned things around.
And today I’m stronger than ever and I feel like myself again!
You can do it too!
Strength training is the key to building and maintaining muscle, strengthening your bones, and keeping your body functional - so you can keep crossing things off your bucket list in the decades ahead.
Because you're just getting started!
Even Twice A Week Can Make A Huge Difference
See what just 2x week can do!
Robin followed the Learn to Lift at HOME program for 10 weeks, training just twice a week at home with dumbbells.
She started eating more protein (as recommended in the program) and added a 30-minute walk after dinner almost every day.
These simple, manageable changes have already boosted her strength and started transforming her body.
Imagine what it could do for you!
Imagine a life where you...
Are STRONG, TONED & feel like yourself again
When you trade your group fitness classes and random online workouts with weights, and start following a systematic strength training program, you’ll build muscle, get toned, and start feeling like yourself again!
Improve your HEALTH & keep your body FUNCTIONAL
This isn't just about looking better, it's about strengthening your bones to fight osteoperosis, regulating blood sugar to avoid type 2 diabetes, and keeping your body strong so arthritis does not stop you from enjoying life!
Take CONTROL of your future: Age Strong
Instead of getting weaker with age and due to menopausal hormone changes, build strength that makes everything from carrying groceries to picking up your grandkids feel effortless and helps keep you out of the nursing home!
Real Women. Real Results
Real strength training is the fastest way to the results you're after.
"I'm 2 sessions away from finishing the Learn to Lift program. It has been transformative. I look forward to weight training sessions, I feel stronger, and I feel good knowing that I'm taking care of my health proactively. I have never lifted weights before in my life until your program and now I know I will never stop."
- Nicola, age 40
"I am now one month in thanks to Lynn, and the changes are enormous already! I am doing all this from home with 5, 10 and 15 lb. dumbbells so far! My clothes fit so much better after 4 weeks. Progressive overload is really making me stronger already!"
— Sara, age 63

Here’s What Strength Training Does for You
Maintain & Build Muscle
Stops and reverses the muscle loss that comes with aging or dieting (including if you're on GLP-1s)
Reduce Visceral Fat
Strength training helps reduce the dangerous fat around your organs - linked to heart disease, insulin resistance, & other health risks.
Stronger Bones
Protects against - and is used to treat - osteoporosis, helping you avoid bone fractures.
Stronger Tendons & Ligaments
It’s not just your muscles that benefit: lifting keeps your body functional, resilient & helps you avoid injuries.
Happier Joints
Stronger muscles take pressure off cranky knees, hips, and back.
More Toned Body
That toned look? It comes from having more muscle. Muscle gives your body shape.
Faster Metabolism
Muscle burns more calories, even at rest - so managing your weight gets easier.
Boosted Confidence
When you feel better in your body, it shows—in how you stand, dress, move, and show up in life.
Healthier Mitochondria
When your mitochondria work better, you have more energy, faster recovery, and long-term disease protection.
Keep Your Independence
Strength training is your “stay out of the nursing home” plan - and the key to aging on your own terms.
Don't put it off any longer: your future self with thank you!

Hi! I'm Lynn.
Are you a woman in mid-life who knows she should start lifting weights but doesn't know where to start?
And when you go online looking for help, there is just too much information - often conflicting - to sort through. And, you can't be sure that it's even relevant to a 40+ woman whose goal is not bodybuilding or bikini fitness competitions.
I've been there.
At age 49, I noticed that my body had changed significantly: my muscles had disappeared and so had my waist! Sure, I was post-menopause, but I was not ready to start looking and feeling old!!
The craziest thing was that I was working out (hard) 5 days/week - including working with weights in Pump, circuit and Bootcamp classes. I learned too late that those are not the way to hold on to muscle.
I switched things up and started weight training, and omg it was a game changer. Now, at age 54, I am stronger than ever, my body feels amazing, and I feel more confident than I have in decades. I want to help you feel that way too.
Ready to transform your body?
Let's do it!
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is Learn to Lift suitable for complete beginners and couch potatoes?
YES! Learn to Lift is designed for women who have never lifted before or for those who have some experience but want to learn to lift in a more impactful way (to maximize results!!)
Q: How long is the course & when does it start?
You can start as soon as you sign up.
Learn to Lift is self-paced. Getting up-and-running will take you about 1 hour. You'll spend that hour watching the instructional videos before your first weight training session.
The program includes 10 weeks of workouts. You do not need to complete them in 10 weeks. So, if you need to skip a day or even a week or two (eg. for vacation or illness), just pick up where you left off when you're back.
And you have lifetime access to the teaching videos and workouts.
Q: What if I go on vacation or get sick during the 10 weeks?
There is no deadline for finishing Learn to Lift so you can proceed at your own pace, and if you have holidays or sick day, just pick up where you left off when you're back/healthy again.
Q: How many days per week do I need to train & how long is each session?
You choose the frequency (I will ask you about it after you join).
You can train 2, 3, or 4 times per week. Choose the frequency that you think you can sustain for several months - you can always add more days later.
I recommend starting with 2 or 3 times per week.
Each training session will take you 45-60 minutes to complete.
Only have 30 minutes? You can shorten the sessions by doing only the 3-4 'primary' exercises I assign for each workout. And don't worrry - even these shorter workouts will get you stronger, firmer & healthier!
Q: What equipment will I need?
If you lift at HOME all you only need dumbbells.
You’ll want about a yoga mat’s worth of space to workout in. And if you have a mat to lie on then that will be more comfortable for you.
If you are buying new dumbbells, then I suggest getting some adjustable ones so that you can add weight as you get stronger. Here are some suggestions >
Pro tip: there are a lot of dumbbells available second hand that’s how I’ve gotten barely used great dumbbells for almost nothing!
If you lift at the GYM: I program using standard gym equipment found in most gyms. However, if your gym does not have a particular piece of equipment, just let me know and I'll give you some options to choose from.
Q: Do I need to train on certain days - will you give me a schedule?
No. You train on days that work for you.
When you sign up, you'll let me know how many days per week you'd like to train, and I'll give you guidelines as to how to fit those into your week.
In a nutshell, though: You want to give a muscle group at least 48hours to recover after a session.
If you choose to train 2xweek, you'll do 2 full-body sessions, so you'll need to leave 48hours between sessions.
If you choose to train 3xweek, you'll have 1 upper, 1 lower and 1 full-body day. You can do the upper & lower days back-to-back, but then recover for 48hours before doing the full-body day.
If you choose to train 4xweek, you'll have 2 upper and 2 lower-body days. So, just wait 48 hours before doing the same part of your body again.
Q: What if I have questions and need some help?
I am here to help!
When you sign up, you'll be invited to a private Facebook group. There, you can ask me questions anytime and I'm happy to answer.
Q: What is the app like that my sessions are delivered in?
Q: How are my workouts delivered - is it a spreadsheet or an app?
My programs are delivered via the LynnFit app. Check out the video above to see how it works.
Q: I have not exercised in ages - is this going to be okay for me?
Yes! Learn to Lift is designed for women who are completely new to weight training or who have not lifted in a while.
I have selected exercises that can be done even if you are just getting started.
The beauty of weight training is that you can always train at your own level, and increase your weights as your strength and confidence grows!
Q: Is there a weight loss element or diet plan in the course?
No. This is purely a Learn to Lift weights course.
However, I do offer a fat loss course called Midlife Fat Loss Formula which is a fast-action bonus - so if you sign up quickly, you'll get that too!
Q: What's the next step after Learn to Lift?
Once you've completed Learn to Lift, you can continue your strength training journey with me in my training membership.
