1-1 Strength & Nutrition Coaching
Built around your actual life – not a template
You don't need another meal plan you'll abandon by week three, or a workout program that assumes you have two free hours a day.
You need a coach who's actually paying attention — to your training, your food, your schedule, and what's realistic for the season you're in right now.
One coach, not three
I coach training & nutrition together, not a trainer who ignores food, or a nutritionist who's never seen you lift.
Built around your real life
Training, sleep, stress and food are all connected. A rough week changes the plan — it doesn't wreck it.
Evidence-based, not restrictive
No "earn your food," no bounce-back messaging, no rules that fall apart after a fortnight.
ABOUT
Hey, I'm Vanessa
A mum of two, and someone who spent years training hard without ever quite understanding why the results weren't matching the effort.
Built Strong exists because I don't think strength training for women — especially mums — needs to be about getting smaller, or "bouncing back" to some old version of yourself.
It's about building real capability for the life you're actually living now, not the one you had before kids.
1:1 coaching is where I get to know someone properly, your program evolving as you do, real accountability, and me actually knowing what's happening in both your training and your kitchen, instead of guessing at one from the other.
Let's connect!

How it works
Getting to know you
A real conversation about your current health status, training history, goals, what's realistic for your right now. This is also how we check it's a good fit both ways.
Your program is built
Strength training and nutrition, designed around you specifically, not adapted from a template.
We progress together
Weekly check-ins, ongoing WhatsApp support, and a monthly 1:1 call to go deeper and adjust the plan. Benchmark testing built into every package, so progress is something real we can point to.

BUILT STRONG
Transformations

The group program teaches you the method, structured training, the knowledge and skill to run your own progressive strength training for life, inside a live cohort with other people doing it alongside you. 1:1 coaching is a direct, ongoing relationship – fully personalised programming, ongoing adjustment, and me actually in your corner week to week. Some people want to learn the system and run with it themselves. Others want a coach doing that thinking with them, continuously. Neither is the "better" option, it depends what you're actually looking for.
Yes. Everything is built from wherever you're starting, not against a benchmark set by anyone else in a room.
That's exactly what the personalisation is for. We build around your actual week, not an idealised one.
You can extend, move to a longer package, or step back – whatever is right for you at that point. Nothing auto-renews without a conversation first.
Tell me what you've got access to on the discovery call, or in your intake form if you enrol directly, and the program gets built around it.
No, if you already know this is what you want, you can enrol directly. You'll fill in a short intake form covering your training history, goals and any injuries so your program still gets built properly around you. The call is there for anyone who'd rather talk it through first.
