Tania Monk · Women’s strength coach & nutritionist
Training, nutrition, education and support, all in one app and all from me. Whether you’re getting ready for perimenopause, in the thick of it, or well past it, this program meets you where you are, at home or in the gym.
12 weeks for $199.99 AUD, then $34.99 AUD a month, cancel any time. Launching 16 November, but start at any time. Join my Facebook group for a sneak peek.
The principles haven’t changed. Strength training, enough protein, healthy nutrition, regular movement and good sleep still work at any age. What gets harder is doing them consistently when your sleep is disrupted, recovery is slower and life is full.
So we focus on what makes the biggest difference, and build habits you enjoy and can sustain. It’s what I’ve spent the last 10 years refining, in my own training and with the women I coach.

Three strength and two HIIT workouts a week to choose from, plus yoga, Pilates and mobility twice a week. I recommend at least three a week, with at least two of those strength.

Personalised protein and macro targets, with meals you choose. Whether your goal is fat loss, muscle gain or simply eating better, we start with protein, fibre and the foods you enjoy.

Most women were never told what to expect from peri to post-menopause. Twice a week, I’ll break it all down. Understanding the why behind what you do is what closes the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.

Hi, I’m Tania
I know what it’s like to try to prioritise yourself, fitting in training and eating well around a busy career, a family, and a changing body you don’t quite recognise anymore. Now in my 50s, I feel stronger and more capable than I ever have, and my purpose is to help you feel the same.
As an online coach, I’ve helped women from all over the world build confidence and find their strength through their 40s, the menopause transition and the years that follow.
For the past decade, these are the principles I’ve followed myself and used with every woman I coach. I’ve tested them, adjusted them and refined them with women at every stage, from complete beginners to experienced lifters.
Social media is full of advice for women at this stage of life, and much of it is confusing, contradictory or simply wrong. You shouldn’t have to work out who to believe. I wanted to give women one place they can trust, built on evidence, not trends.
I also know that not everyone can get to a gym, or feels comfortable in one, and life doesn’t always run to a timetable.
Getting older doesn’t mean lowering your expectations of what your body can do. It means understanding the changes and knowing how to adapt.
So I’ve put everything I’ve learned into the Fit After 40 app: training, nutrition, education and building the habits that make it all stick, with me guiding you at home or in the gym, whenever it suits you.
That’s why I took Fit After 40 online.
How it works · Your first 12 weeks
Pick the level that matches your experience. Each program runs for 12 weeks, in three phases of four weeks, so you get your technique right first and then build on it.

New to strength training, or coming back after time off? Start here. You’ll learn the key movements properly, build your confidence and get stronger week by week.

Already lifting? This program builds on what you know, with heavier loads, more challenging variations and steady progression.
Follow along with me, or train at your own pace and track your own sets and reps. Switch between the two whenever you like, at home or in a commercial gym.
Inside the app
Everything you need for your 12 weeks, in one place.
Your 12 weeks, laid out. Every session in order, with your progress saved as you go.
Follow along with me, or train on your own with clear demos, coaching cues and exercise swaps whenever you need them.
Protein and macro targets tailored to you, plus example meal plans you can slot straight into your weekly meal planner.
Every Monday and Friday, I’ll walk you through what’s happening in your body, why it’s happening, and what you can do about it. This is the part most programs leave out.
Track your weights, reps and sessions, plus your daily habits and body measurements. Benchmark where you start, then see how far you’ve come.
Nutrition
You’ll get personalised protein and macro targets, and you choose the meals that suit you. There’s no one-size-fits-all plan.
If you’d like a starting point, there are high-protein example meal plans at different calorie levels, built from my recipes, that you can slot straight into your weekly planner.

From the women I coach
There is so much to love about training with Tania, but what I loved the most (besides the results) was that I never felt like a number. Everyone is treated as an individual.
With Tan’s passion for the industry, and the kindness and understanding she shows to her clients… it is impossible not to get results! She can relate to me like no other personal trainer… I have never felt better about myself.
Tania’s wealth of knowledge and constant support enabled me to achieve results beyond my expectations. I feel stronger in my 40s than ever before and have the tools to continue on my fitness journey.
When investing time and money to achieve your goals, you want/expect support. Tania has loads of it. With her understanding, fierce motivation and unbelievable knowledge of nutrition it means keeping on track, and working hard make fitness enjoyable whilst achieving results.

Questions
Yes. Build Your Foundation starts from the very beginning using bodyweight only. You’ll learn each movement properly before you add any weight.
No. Every program has a home version and a gym version, and you can switch between them.
Build Your Foundation (beginner): At home, the minimum is a chair and resistance bands, including a glute band, and it’s a good idea to invest in a set of light dumbbells as you get stronger. A low step is also handy.
Build Your Strength (intermediate/advanced): At home, the minimum is a set of dumbbells, resistance bands, a fit ball, a glute band and a high step. A bench is also a great option but optional.
Home workouts take about 30 minutes, and gym workouts about 45. Yoga, Pilates and mobility sessions vary in length, so you can fit them in when it suits you.
No. I recommend a minimum of three a week, with at least two of those being strength. The HIIT sessions are optional and there because cardio matters too, and the best cardio is the one you enjoy enough to keep doing. So you get to decide how that looks for you. They’re a lot of fun, so give them a go and add them when you can. You get to organise your workouts into your week based on your busy schedule.
Both. Follow along with me, or train at your own pace and log your own sets and reps. You can switch from one session to the next.
No, but you can if you’d like to. The app lets you track calories and macros, or just your protein if you’d rather keep it simple. Prefer not to track at all? Use the example meal plans as a guide to what a balanced day on a plate looks like, and learn from there. There’s no single right way. Choose the approach that feels right for you and you can stick to.
Your membership automatically moves into Strong for Life at $34.99 AUD a month, so you keep training and learning with me. You can cancel any time.
Yes. Building strength and healthy habits now, before perimenopause, is one of the best things you can do for the years ahead.
Yes. You can watch on your phone, tablet or laptop, or cast to a compatible smart TV. Chromecast options are available.
Yes. Once you’re in Strong for Life, you can cancel any time.
These workouts are designed to do anywhere, and I’d really encourage you to keep training while you’re away. Home workouts need very little equipment, and my education check-ins and podcasts go wherever you do. If you miss a week, you can pick up where you left off.
Check with your GP or physio before you start. Every movement is taught step by step, so you can work at a level that feels right for you.
