Personal Training
for Over-40s.
Your body changes after 40. Your training needs to change with it. Strength, posture and recovery work that fits the decade. Not the one you used to train in.
STRENGTH · POSTURE · LONGEVITY
What 1:1 at 5EW actually is.
Built around the body you have now: years of sitting, shifting hormones, slower recovery, and a need for training that gives back more than it takes.
Pricing is membership-based and shaped around session frequency.
We walk you through it on your free consult.
How it actually works.
Four steps. No “quick transformation” language. We start with a conversation, build from data, and keep adjusting, because the first programme is never the last one.
Discovery Consult
A 60-minute conversation with a coach on the gym floor. History, goals, what’s held you back before. No commitment. No hard sell.
Movement & Composition Scan
Mobility, posture and 40+ body composition markers captured and read with you. Track your bone density, visceral fat, and muscle mass. The baseline your programme is built from.
Your Programme, in the App
Individualised training, nutrition and lifestyle tracking, delivered through our coaching app and reviewed between sessions by your coach.
Coached Sessions, Weekly
45-minute 1:1 sessions. Same coach each time. Reprogrammed every four weeks as your body, schedule and life change.

Four questions the consult usually covers anyway. Here first, in case they’re the blocker.
How long is each session?
Forty-five minutes, 1:1, with the same coach each time. Long enough to warm up properly, do the work, and leave feeling clearer, not wrecked for two days.
I’ve got old injuries. Is that a problem?
Most of our members come to us with old injuries, niggles or areas that need a little extra attention.
That’s why we start with a movement assessment. We’ll assess your posture, mobility, movement patterns, areas of tightness and any compensations that may have developed over time.
From there, we build a programme specifically for you—not a one-size-fits-all template.
Can I strength train if I have osteopenia or osteoporosis?
Definitely! Strength training is one of the best ways to support bone health. Our coaches can modify exercises to suit your ability, helping you train safely while building strength and confidence.
Can strength training help during menopause and perimenopause?
Yes. Strength training can help combat many of the changes that occur during menopause, including muscle loss, reduced bone density, weight gain and a slower metabolism. It’s one of the most effective ways to stay strong, healthy and independent as you age
How does pricing work?
Membership-based, shaped around how often you train. We walk you through it on the free consult. There are no online packages to buy before you’ve met a coach.
Will I get bulky from strength training?
No. Slower, controlled strength work builds the kind of strength your body needs in your 40s, 50s and 60s: bone density, posterior chain, posture. The look most over-40s want comes with this work, not from chasing it.
