Coach

Kirsty McFarlane

I'm a nutrition coach and personal trainer who specialises in helping transform the lives of women in their middle years. My background is in science, which has always driven me to design evidence-based programmes. I, like you, have tried every diet under the sun, been an emotional eater and battled with self image. i found a pattern that worked to help me feel good and stay in shape then perimenopause hit. i was so fatigued that exercising was becoming harder and harder and i noticed a shift in fat to my middle. It's no wonder what I had learned to do wasn't working, I was now living in a different body. Through menopause accreditations and leaning into the real science as well as my evidence based practice I found a new norm for me. One in which I'm as strong as ever and progressing, fitter than I've ever been after challenging myself with two Hyrox events in 2024 and in great shape. I thrive on having high energy and feeling good but can't deny I love how my body looks in clothes and no styles is off limits. Now I have made it my mission to share my expertise with other middle aged woman on how to thrive during these years of our lives. My passion is to help you become the happiest and healthiest version of you and teach you how to transform your life and your body by implementing sustainable changes. I have worked with hundreds of woman in middle age and understand the challenges it can bring. My clients lose the weight and more importantly, keep it off. But it's far from being just about weight loss, you may be ready to level up your life, set new goals and step into new challenges, like 8 of my ladies who stepped in Hyrox early this. I pride myself in not only helping woman lose weight and gain control of their bodies back but in advising them in the options available to them at this stage in their lives. My coaching centres around the woman as a whole, with destressing and optimal sleep strategies as well as a progressive exercise program, ideal midlife nutrition and supporting women in getting the best menopause care possible from their doctors.
