  Yours truly is a 60 year old post-menopausal woman who was the cardio queen back in the day. Laziness, age, and a sugar addiction has led to the lbs creeping up and the inches expanding! ***. As losing weight consumed my thoughts, tons of questionable ads appeared in my social media feed targeting weight loss, cortisol, stress, and more. It was all so confusing and it just didn't seem legit. Until a very good video from fitness expert **** ********* (Refining Strength founder) appeared in my feed talking about her program, cutting thru the clutter online, and describing a recipe for success. CUT TO: Now. 7 weeks into the program, and I've lost 9 lbs and inches in all body parts, thanks to great 1:1 coaching, a specific strength training regimen, tracking macros (which always sounded like a drag, but isn't that hard once you make the commitment), and great video resources Refining Strength shares with their clients -- many having to do with MINDSET, a key ingredient in that recipe. Changing eating habits is HARD, but knowing that Coach ******, who zooms with me every week and texts with me practically every day, is by my side during this journey has really helped me stay CONSISTENT, another ingredient that's not always easy to achieve. I've made an investment in myself, and it's the best decision I've made in years. I highly recommend Redefining Strength if you're ready to do the work and meet some like-minded people in the ************ along the way.

  You're a rockstar beastette! You've embraced the process and most importantly have embraced CHANGE to meet your body where it is at now! And as you said...mindset is one of the most key components and the thing we so often don't address in just adjusting workouts or our diet...but it drives true lasting habits! I'm so excited to see those results continue to snowball! Great job and keep it up!

  To be honest at first I was extremely skeptical that anything would help. And while I was in it for the "long haul"' and wanted to develop healthy habits that would carry me through my life, I also wanted a "quick fix" as I watched all my friends on weight loss drugs start shedding pounds in weeks. The program really helped me understand the downside of "quick fixes" and how shifting my diet (without starving!) and shifting how I was working out could make a difference. But they are right, results are slow at the beginning and then all of a sudden, the changes start. It's AMAZING what starts to happen. My muscle tone was beyond anything I had even as a student athlete, slowly inches were coming off, and this is all eating 500 more calories than I was when I started (and I erroneously thought easting less was the way to go). This program is no joke. Be patient and be honest with your coaches so they can tailor to you and the results will be beyond what you thought was possible!

  You put it so perfectly beastette. It is hard to shift that mindset to sustainable and long-term changes...because we all DO want results yesterday. But you've embraced the process and you're rocking those results. So proud of you! KEEP IT UP, I know you will!

  Redefining Strength has made me look at myself differently and want different for my future. I have changed the way I look at food and began strength training and have fell in love with it!! My coach, *****, was extremely patient with me and was always available for help and guidance no matter what the negative my mind was telling me. When ***** made my workouts there were mobility and stretching and foam rolling that I looked at and thought what a waste of time but I was going to do what she said because she was the professional and I was looking for help because what I was doing was no longer working. I bit the bullet and just did what she told me with the workouts and little by little increasing my calories which was uncomfortable. What I did not realize was the mobility helped me in ways that I had no idea!! My strength increased, my calories increased and combining the two together I have become more toned little by little and eating more and more. I love how I feel and I am loving how I look. My clothes fit better and I am enjoying my new strong look. I have not been able to feel this way in many many years. I could not have been happier with my experience with RS and I would recommend my coach ***** to anyone on the fence. I am 60 years old and feel better and stronger than I have ever felt. Strength training is my friend for life and I plan on getting stronger and leaner day by day! Join today! You will not be disappointed!! ******** W

  I signed up and started the year-long 1:1 coaching program a few months ago. I have learned SO much and have slowly but surely seen progress. I am 62 and haven't seen the scale move down in over 12 years of trying everything. But finally it is moving in the right direction. My goal is to lose 40 pounds and get strong so I can be healthy and make this next chapter my best ever. I know it will take time, but for the first time ever I feel like I can do this. I don't want to give up like usual...I truly believe in this program that **** and her team has created. My coach ************ is absolutely wonderful. It is worth every ***** and so much more. I am doing this for me because I am worth it! I highly recommend RDS.

  I had just finished this program and ***** learning experience it has been for me. Ive always been the one to yo-yo diet and when it came to macros, I just did not understand how it worked. It was frustrated so much information over load I did not know where to turn and I hated it and just gave up. I came across redefining strength and watched it for a while, and I decided to give it a chance. My counselor was amazing. I told her macros intimidate me. I dont get it. She set me up with menus and My Fitness Pal. During my time I have learned what macros were all about how to measure and weigh out my food. Ive also learned its not just about calories its watching your fat protein and carbohydrates I stayed away from the scale I realized its my inches lost not the weight and during this program I have gone down to a size medium and Im actually wearing regular bras not sports bras.I am not bloated all the time like I used to be, and I believe its because I am paying attention to my macros My journey is not over I am still a work in process, but I am better educated now and I believe I will be more successful this time I want to thank redefining strength for giving me a new outlook in my weight loss journey. thank you very much

  I was a sceptic now Im a believer As an active long-time gym rat, I was discouraged to get some serious health news. I didnt have a lot of internet trust--knowing that so many diet and health suggestions end up sabotaging your long-term metabolic health. After a year of watching RDS and **** on-line, I was persuaded that this group was my best shot at getting the knowledge and training I need to improve and even reverse my health challenges. After 5 months of 1:1 training, I have greatly benefited from the trusted team of RDS staff. This group delivers far more than they promise. They are realistic, candid and supportive in their individually tailored-made programs. *** worked with trainers for many years but never had as effective programing as the ones designed by RDS. The nutrition counseling is beyond fabulous. I have many challenges in this arena and my wrangler patiently works though each hurdle with science backed knowledge and experience. The constant support and knowledge gained from my wrangler, the podcasts, the client group meetings and **** herself is unmatched. I feel as though I have TEAM ***** pulling to help me achieve my goals. I wont lieYou gotta put in the work and it does take time. BUT if you are willing to put on your big girl ******* and take on the challenge of change, you will only benefit. At 72 this is my big chance to change my life and hence the quality of my future years. If I were you, I would join RDS sooner than later.

  Looked and tried other **************** loss programs but this is hands-down the most success Ive had. They not only address your **************** loss goals but try to get down to the behaviors which have hindered your success in the past. They teach you how to be successful in your journey. And recognize that there may be stumbles along the way. If youre looking for a Tribe of amazing supportive woman and great coaching for macros and **************** look no further. My coach ***** was outstanding! Couldnt have done this without her support! Love her!! And **** is in a league of her own. I feel happier, confident and more importantly the most comfortable in my body that I havent felt in a long time! WIN!!!!!

  Redefining Strength has been a game changer since I joined in May. Already an endurance athlete and committed to my health journey, I was stuck as to how to move forth in diet, fueling, macros, recovery and balancing all these things while training. I wasnt getting results even though I thought I had a plan in place. **** and her team offer incredible knowledge, guidance and support. My wonderful wrangler *** has been beside me every step and moving me where I need to go. Change takes time and Im at the starting lineexcited to see where Ill be in 6 mos. Grateful for this program and all the amazing wranglers and unicorns!! ?? ****** from *******

  This program has educated me on the difference between weight loss and body recomposition. I have learned how the specific foods we eat affects our body, for either muscle building or fat retention. So paying close attention to the macros and the weightlifting after 8 weeks in the program has made a difference. My clothes are looser and the scale is starting to go down and I know I'm stronger. I'd like to finish off the year with *****, my coach, for the daily guidance, homework, and probing questions as to why I want to change. ***** has been a great coach. Thank you, ****

  This program is changing me for the better, in more ways than I thought when i started it. Currently 9 weeks in, thanks to my wrangler ******, I have made some significant changes that are setting the foundation for a life-long healthy lifestyle. Most important: food is no longer a coping mechanism for me. All the changes are tiring, no doubt about that, but I have learned that it is ok and important to meet me where I am at. Yes a homecooked meal with high protein would be best, but if I don't have the energy for that, meeting me where I am at means having convenient protein sources available, that are low-effort to prepare. The training program is really personalized and tailored towards my goals, and whenever there are struggles, ****** is there to help. Looking forward to see where the program takes me next, and what changes come next!
