Intro

My name is Holly Rilinger and I’m so excited to be your coach! During this two week Bootcamp you will learn how to strength train to build strong bones and manage your body composition during perimenopause, menopause and beyond.

Lifting weights can be intimidating and I’m here to help you feel CONFIDENT and CAPABLE with weights. My hope is that you not only develop a consistent weight training routine, but you actually enjoy it (I  am pretty sure you will, like most of my clients, once you feel the positive changes in your body... and mind).
