I’m not here to lie to you and tell you there is a fast and easy fix.
I’m not here to sell you some “short cut” or a “secret” to getting “six pack abs instantly (or ever)!”
BUT losing those first 5lbs? Well there is a lot of power in that. Why? Let me name 3 reasons: Control, Motivation, Trust. The hardest three things for a woman trying something new. 1. Getting started 2. Staying motivated and 3. Trusting it will work. And well we can all do something for 10 days right? And if you saw results on the scale, in the body, your energy, your digestion and how you feel? Well there is the golden ticket for motivation right there!
Whether you’ve never swung a kettlebell or feel it’s “too late” as a 40 or 50 year old woman, as long as you have the desire to get a body you are proud of, you’re in the right place.
Let’s get you starting, believing and trusting- that’s what I want for you, oh and of course RESULTS YOU CAN FEEL PROUD OF.
And the best part? All of this being Simple, Sustainable and Enjoyable.
You see, it really is not as easy as moving more and eating less.
We are living in unprecedented times of stress, we have an excess of information, expectations, demands, responsibilities, multiple jobs, and family demands – you name it… women in their 40s are just plain busy and more often than not, to shelter ourselves away from the monotony or stress, we turn to unhealthy habits – (name your vice!)
But it should be the other way around: the more cornered we get by elements that can throw us off balance, the more committed to our health and wellbeing we must be.
Health is synonymous with success, in any shape, form or version. Healthy people thrive in every aspect of their lives – it is the foundation of our greatest achievements, of confidence, of limitless creativity and of longstanding relationships. When you look good, you feel good and you not only create a force field of positivity but you become a magnet for the things you wish to manifest in your life.
Making healthy choices and caring for yourself de-clutters your mind and makes space for the projects, people and places you always wished you had time for and makes you a happy, healthy woman with a happy and healthy family and life.
A lean, strong and curvy body is a sign of success and something you cannot buy or short cut, you must achieve.
But you’ve been lied to…
For years, you’ve been told that losing weight is simply a matter of moving more and eating less.
I’m here to tell you that’s nonsense. There are things that your body is dealing with every second of every day without you even realising it. As you go about your daily life, little do you know that underlying, invisible forces are likely stopping you from losing weight, holding you back, and making you miserable.
Invisible forces? What are these invisible forces?
These nefarious, unseen forces are anything that puts your body out of balance, a precious state of optimal function known as homeostasis. These culprits are things we regularly contend with without giving them much thought: toxins, chronic stress, sugar overload (specifically, fructose), and insufficient and/or poor-quality sleep, your menstrual cycle, and those pesky hormones.
Combine these culprits with misinformation about how and what we should eat – given to us by medical authorities who really should know better- and it becomes all too confusing.
Your body perceives any chronic influence that affects this ideal state as nothing less than a threat to your survival.
When that happens, your body gradually shifts from thriving mode to surviving mode.
Unfortunately, these health disruptors are part and parcel of a modern life in our 40s that our bodies were not designed to deal with. No matter how fast the world around us speeds up, we’re still tackling it with the same factory-installed settings we inherited from our ancient ancestors. For example, life might be a lot more manageable if we could go for weeks without sleeping, but we haven’t evolved that capability.
I see so many diets out there claiming to have the EASY and FAST solution to weight loss.
They tell you that you can eat intuitively/’healthy’/ ‘low calorie’/’clean’/’low carb’ /’plant based‘) and still see the changes you want to see.
Well guess what?
It’s not that simple.
They only tell you that to get you to BUY the program. You are only ever seeing the highlights, showreels or big marketing budgets. They don’t really care if it works for you.
Because the simple fact is…If we knew HOW to eat right and do the right sort of exercise then the dieting industry wouldn’t exist.
Obesity wouldn’t be on the rise.
We wouldn’t eat because we’re tired. Or stressed after a long week. Or simply because ice cream tastes delicious….
All of us would be the ideal weight for our health and we’d know how to fuel our performance goals and be motivated to do our workouts, even as our needs changed over time and as we got older.
And don’t get me started on the ‘free workouts’. I mean there are more free workouts on the internet than ever before but we still have a rising obesity and health crisis.
Heart healthy exercise is free yet heart disease is still the biggest killer of women.
So these plans that say we can eat “healthy” and just cobble those free workouts from the internet. They want to make it sound soooo simple you can’t resist wasting your money.
They don’t really care if you LEARN how to get results and understand the basics of proper nutrition.
The thing is…I DO care. I don’t want clients who are going to start working with me then not follow through. I don’t want to waste my time and money or theirs.
I want women like YOU who are ready to make a change and truly understand how to get results.
I want women like you willing to commit the time and energy it will take to understand how protein, carbs, fats and calories all impact the results you get.
I want clients who are willing to LEARN how to eat the right thing at the right time and with the right training, to make the lifestyle change.
Because the simple fact is, most of us don’t truly understand what we actually need to change to get results.
We aren’t aware of how much protein, carbs or fat, or even for that matter how many calories, we are actually consuming.
We aren’t following a step-by-step guide laid out for us on how to make the changes we need.
It’s why you may even feel like you’re eating all of the right foods – lots of fruits and veggies and whole, natural and clean foods – yet you’re NOT seeing the results you want from your diet.
And on top of that, we keep repeating same frustrating cycle because nothing is MAINTAINABLE.
Let’s face it…most of the socializing we do?
It centers around FOOD. And even drinks.
And we shouldn’t have to completely overhaul our lifestyle to get results.
There can and SHOULD be a balance between dialing in our nutrition according to our goals and creating a healthier version of the LIFESTYLE WE ENJOY NOW.
So how can you FINALLY start seeing the results you want regardless of your age or busy schedule?
Nutrition is like religion…
Everyone has an opinion and everybody is right… for them.
That’s to say, there are some universally accepted guiding principles and a bucket load of really interesting sciencific data for women’s wellness – and these can be easily clarified and communicated- but the nuances come down to personal preferences, finding faith in your own journey and making the necessary course corrections as the time and results require.
The issue is that these often conflicting nuances and our lack of faith in ourselves, our intuition and listening to our bodies, just leaves us confused, frustrated and doing the ‘Diet Hokey Cokey’, you know that dance we do of one foot in and one foot out which results in us never finding, committing and walking our own paths and actually mindfully getting to the destination we intended.
We just end up lost.
Everything changed for me when I simply made the decision to learn more about my body. What exercise it liked, what food to put in, what supplements I needed.
This was a mixture of studying nutrition, health and fitness but mostly about truly listening and being in tune with how my body feels.
If you are here:
… you are probably a woman who has struggled for years, if not most of your life, to shift the weight, change their body shape and get fit and toned,
I’m here to tell you that you’ve probably been listening to the wrong advice. You have been listening to everyone else, except your body.
… perhaps you have never really listened or know what to listen for, or even where to begin to rediscover what works for YOU.
You have never stuck to something because you never truly believed in why or what you were following.
… perhaps you’ve even forgotten WHAT kind of body you want to have because you’ve been so lost in a cycle of falling on and off the diet wagon for decades. You’ve tried everything -the next fad thing, giving the gym another go… and sometimes it works for a while, and sometimes you feel you are doing great and then you fall back off.
… and I guess that the emotional back and forth is driving you crazy and you have almost given up hope of ever having a lean, strong and curvy body you are PROUD, because you just can’t find a formula that works for YOU.
But you just refuse to give up because you’ve seen others do it and you know that you could do it too, if only you could make it work for you and your life.
Yet despite the journey you have been on to arrive here, you have never fully accepted the size and shape that you are now, because deep down in your heart, you KNOW that none of these fad diets work and the SECRET to getting lean, strong & curvy is finding an expert who has done what you want to do, who has taught countless others and working together to find that intuitive, ethical approach that works for you and your body.
And THAT is what I’m going to help you accomplish today.
So even if you think that you’re too old, too fat, too busy, too lazy…
That it’s just NEVER going to happen to you…
That being lean is overrated, that skinny people are miserable, that beautiful people are shallow, that fit people are obsessive …
You need to SHIFT YOUR BELIEFS.
Time to start the SHIFT and take that leap of faith and step into your own POWER, as a true Warrior Goddess to achieve your Warrior Goddess Body.

REAL RESULTS FOR REAL WOMEN WITH REAL BODIES
Making you BETTER for everyday life & everyday movement.
I always thought I was eating healthily
“The one big thing I can say about fully embracing this plan is that I am now in control of my appetite and free from the power of blood sugar highs and lows and all the associated bad food choices, binges and sugary “fixes” which have led to me putting on weight, even though I thought I was eating healthily. The key is the protein. And then there’s the carbs. And then there’s doing the sweaty exercise properly! Lisa takes you through all of it and makes it easy to understand and easy to follow. “- VICKI, 47, BELFAST.

Feeling a bit apprehensive before I started
“I’d tried for a whole year to make a change in my body shape (I just had to loose weight.) I just couldn’t get any momentum, even if I ate ‘healthy’ and I was doing three days a week of hr functional training and a slow jog a few times a week, the weight was so slow in coming off I’d give up and binge and then I’d be back at the beginning again.
I’m feeling fitter and much more in control of my eating. I think it’s just understanding as I move into a different phase in life and I need to listen, learn and rediscover my inner warrior goddess.”
-EMMA, AUSTRALIA.
OMG Did I make a mistake?
I had to go into the office for a meeting and needed to wear smart trousers. I hadn’t ironed my usual ones and grabbed a pair that I hadn’t worn comfortably in easily 9months, and guess what? They fitted, they were comfortable, and my butt looked perky so I could walk past the 20/30 somethings and feel great in myself.
– SARAH, 46.

Kate
I have a waist!
“Can notice the difference in my shape and my tummy is getting tighter. I feel stronger now and my arms are also leaning out too. I love the short but challenging workouts and love to push myself. Would recommend it even at my age 58. I am feeling so much stronger and I have a waist… something I haven’t in years.”
– KATE, 58
I was always active but a health issue meant I could no longer run or do other high impact exercise.

Literally this programme has changed my life
‘‘Literally this programme has changed my life. I have had trouble losing the weight I gained during my pregnancy. Belly fat is my biggest problem and through the programme I feel really positive with more energy level I used to have. I had much less negative thoughts and it was easier than I thought. And the results speak for themselves. Plus my posture got more straight so I feel my back is stronger.”
–ZUZANA, 37
I don’t even like vegetables
“I’ve never been much of a healthy eater, or even a vegetable lover, but this programme got me to try lots of different types of food I never would have looked at before.
I struggle with all day energy and sleeping well because of my auto immune disease which can affect how I eat and exercise but this programme helped with all of that and I am motivated to keep going.
I am stronger and leaner than I have ever been. I have biceps, a flat stomach, the makings of a sixpackand I feel amazing!.”
–BARBARA, 38.

Who is this Life Changing Programme for?
You’re a busy professional woman but you’ve been burning the candle at both ends and want a plan that translates into a simple lifestyle, not an intense, stressful quick fix.

You need a solution that helps you feel in control again. You’re looking for a programme that gives you back your energy. You want something that is holistic and will benefit all aspects of your life.
You want physical results, but you want more than just a few pounds dropped, you want to overcome the unwanted affects of hormones and moving into the next stage of life…
You want to look lean, fit, toned but keep your womanly curves.
You want your to boost your metabolism so that your body becomes a fat burning machine at whatever age.
You want to feel stronger, better, and more confident in your body.
You need a customised solution for you, your body type, current lifestyle and goals, with lots of support, guidance and accountability along the way.
You need a community, a coach and a program that actually works…for life, not just the next 10 days.

I ended up loosing about 5kg and have gone down at least a dress size (which is amazing!) I’m feeling fitter and much more in control of my eating. I think it’s just understanding as I move into a different phase in life and I need to listen, learn and rediscover my inner warrior.”
-EMMA, AUSTRALIA.
OMG Did I make a mistake?
Sarah
“Why did I decide to join up? Simple really, I’m 46 and over the last year my weight has been climbing steadily as well as my measurements. I would weight train 3-4 times per week, and I can lift heavy, but I was not doing much cardio/hit training.
Yes, but I knew that unless I changed something and started doing something differently, I’d be in the same position. I know I didn’t have a huge amount of weight to lose but I wasn’t able to stick to anything and if I stayed on this path then heaven knows what!
As a result my energy levels have become more level and consistent throughout the month,
There’s so much information out there and so much conflicting information aimed at my age group (perimenopausal) that the range of food I was eating was becoming more limited but not now.
If someone asked me should I do the programme, my answer would be YES! Invest in yourself, get ready to challenge yourself but the results (mental, physical, emotional) are worth it.”

From Injury to Strong & Proud
Mary Beth
Down now 5 dress sizes and looking better than she did on her wedding day (her husband’s words, not mine!)
Have tried to lose weight with nearly every programme under the sun since I was 40. I’m 57 now. I tried all of these quite diligently: The Zone. Body For Life (Bill Phillips). Eat for Life (Harvey Diamond). Anti-inflammatory diets. Blood type diets. Training for triathlons (little ones, called sprints) which DID work in my 30s. After 40, nothing worked long-term. Now this. I am taking off weight and keeping it off and found a LIFESTYLE I can sustain. Love how I feel. Love how I am looking. Love who I am becoming.”
-MARY BETH, 57
This all sounds amazing but I got a question….
Q:Do I have to eat a plant based diet?
A: Focusing on more leafy greens, vegetables and fruits in your diet is essential for long term health, energy and for healthy weightloss. It is encouraged that you follow a diet more heavily focused on plants but this does not mean you have to be vegan or vegetarian to do so. This programme provides recipes and menu plans for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans alike, focusing on eating more plants.
Q: What if I don’t like broccoli (or insert food here)?
A: This programme is both guide and teacher. For those that simply want to follow a day by day and meal by meal plan it is laid out for you or you can use the tools and information to craft your own meal plans. We also provide recommend additional nutritional support through whole food supplements. Want to see a sample of the suggested recipes? Download the FREE one day trial here. Or Check out our recommended supplements here in this One Day Download.
Q: What if I try the programme and it doesn’t work for me?
A: We offer a 48 hour “changed my mind’ refund policy. Just email us at support@warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining.com. But to truly try anything you must give it time and trust in the process. It takes more than 21 days to turn something new into a daily habit and it takes at least 28 days to notice true life changing results. If after 28 days of truly following the programme, you are not satisfied, I guarantee to refund your programme in full to you as part of our Satisfaction Guarantee.
Q: Do I have to do the workouts or can I just follow the eating plan?
A: The crux of this programme is based on carb cycling. This is an intentional variaion of your carbohyrate intake based on the workouts you will be doing to maximise fat burn and energy levels. Without the exercise, you will not be maximising your fat burning potential or helping your body to build lean muscle which is the key element in looking leaner and curvier
That said, following either the workout plan or nutritional plan will deliver short term results, just not maximize the fat burning potential of when paired together… like shampoo and conditioner!!
Q: What happens if I can’t workout 3 times a week?
The magic number for exercising for a short term goal is a minimum of 3 (though 4 is better). This means at least 3 kettlebell workouts of 10-30 minutes in a week. (The first week is only 4 minute workouts so easily to fit into your schedule) We are talking less than 2 hours a week!
Q: I have never lifted a kettlebell in my life, am I strong/fit enough to do this programme?
A: What I love about kettlebells is that they are the perfect beginners strength training tool for women. They are compact, easy to use, effective and inexpensive and you can do so much with them from your own home. I currently have clients in their 50-60s who have never lifted a weight now leaner, stronger and fitter in a few weeks!
Q: Where do I get kettlebells from?
A: I have researched far and wide to find the perfect kettlebell for my goddesses. I have written a blog post about this and a whole video is dedicated to this in the classroom to aid in the process. A beginners kit should not set you back more than $40- maybe only $30.
Q: What is carb cycling?
A: A carb cycling program is an intentional variation of carbohydrate intake each week. Most carb cycling plans consist of high carb days and low carb days. In all of my programs, base our cycle on the workouts we will be doing to maximize fat burn and energy levels.
Q: Am I a good fit for this program?
A: This program is for women only (men can invest in the program but can’t be in any of the Facebook Groups). In addition, this program has been incredibly successful for women who are beginners to strength training to those more active and with under 2 stone to lose. My program is geared for you to be active 3 times a week and will require commitment to that.
Q: Do I need a gym membership to complete the Warrior Goddess Body programme?
A: No, this is a one of the key benefits of this programme that can save you time and money. The workouts are designed for easy to follow, quick and effective home workouts. If you wish, you could easily do them in a gym with a small amount of space.
Q: Do I have to follow a strict meal plan?
A. I provide guidelines for each day of our food cycle. For example, on low carb day I will indicate that your goal is to consume less than 50g net carbs. I will explain how to calculate your macros (carbs, fats, protein) and also give you a sample meal plan and recipes. However, you will have the flexibility to consume the foods you truly enjoy. This is not a diet. It is a eating programme. You just need to learn what to eat in relation to your day and cycle.
Q: Am I required to be on Facebook to join the program?
A: We recommend this as a lot of the support, questions and motivation is deliverd in our 24/7 Facebook group. Most of my clients choose to join our Facebook community group for daily tips and accountability. While I do recommend you join the Facebook group, it is not required for participation in the program.
Q: Do I have to do the programme right away?
A: One of the best things about this programme is that you have FOREVER Lifetime Access to the information in our digital classroom but once you START the 6 week challenge you cannot restart it unless you sign up and take it again. You will only have access to the Facebook Community for the 6 weeks of your challenge. This means you can start the programme today and in 6 weeks you then move into our VIP Community and the next step in your Body Shape Change journey.
Q: I have a back/shoulder/knee injury, how can I adapt the exercises?
A: If you have been passed by a doctor and physio to exercise, then you are still able to workout. All exercises can be modified. You may just need to reduce the amount of reps and exercise more frequently rather than for longer periods of time. 5 x10 minute workouts is better than 1 hour a week.
Q: I have lower back pain, will I have to restrict some movements?
A: Did you know that at least 1 in every 3 of my clients tell me they have lower back pain? What I love about kettlebells is that it is the answer to reverse lower back pain. The exercises will help to build up strength in this area to relieve pain and give you strength.
Q: I don’t want to get bulky from the weights, will they make me bulky?
A: Weights don’t make you bulky, eating cupcakes do! haha What I love about kettlebells particularly is you get strength training but in an easy to use and fun little bullet. This is what you need to get truly lean and toned. It was when Lisa made the switch to kettlebells and strength training, away from endless cardio, that she got her flattest stomach of her life and awesome arms too! If you look at her (all 5ft of fairy ninja) she has been lifting with kettlebells for 5 years and is by no means bulky!
Q: Aren’t kettlebells really heavy? What if I am not strong enough?
A: Kettlebells are designed to help you get stronger in a dynamic and safe way and work on the important posterior kinetic chain of your glutes, hamstrings, hips and core. Most of the moves we do work your lower body primarily. Any upper body exercises we do use a lighter kettlebell and help you to gradually build up the fitness and strength week by week. You will notice how quickly your body responds to these exercises for building strength as well as cardio vascular fitness.
Q: Do I have to buy protein powder or other shakes and pills?
A: We do advocate a Proothie- a protein smoothie as a cost effective and easy tool to help you to break your fast and reach your protein goals each day but this is not necessary if you are willing to eat additional protein and plants. That said, in my experience most women undereat protein by 100% and do not get enough essential phytonutrients in their diet which these supplements can bridge the gap for but it is entirely up to you.
