BOLDER STRONG: Fit Over 50

8-Week Total Fitness Program for women who want to get Strong, Lean, and Toned in 40 minutes or less!

Build Lean Muscle. Burn Fat. Boost Energy and Metabolism.

Designed exclusively for midlife women to get noticeable results without crushing, punishing workouts. 

In midlife, if you want your body to respond differently, you need to start training differently.

I NEED THIS - NOTIFY ME!

Let's Get Real, OK?

You WANT to be the strongest, healthiest possible version of yourself.
You WANT to wake up with the energy to tackle your busy days.
You WANT to look in the mirror and love what you see.
You WANT to remain active, and independent for as long as possible.

It's not just about toned arms and flatter abs (although those are nice, too!).

This is about being able to run around with your grandkids like the cool "Glamma" you want to be.

It’s about walking into a meeting feeling confident and like a total boss.

It’s about stepping into your favorite jeans and comfortably zipping them with confidence.

It’s about no longer hiding in the back row of group photos. 

It’s about choosing to invest in your health, longevity, and quality of life NOW, so that you can enjoy precious time with the people you love for YEARS to come.

But, the abundance of conflicting information and quick fix promises out there has left you feeling confused, overwhelmed, and maybe even skeptical.

You don't want to add one more thing to the long list of "things that didn't work for me". 

All of this has left you without a blueprint, a proven and sustainable plan. And you want one ASAP because you are ready to get in the best shape of your life and wake up each day with energy and confidence!

I get it... that's why I created Bolder STRONG... for you.

Here's the thing...

After 40, our hormones start shifting, and it IS harder to stay in shape and lose weight. You've likely realized that 'what used to work is no longer working'. And doing more of what's not working only makes things worse.

When your hormones change, you need a different approach. Many coaches and trainers don't get this!

Bolder STRONG is your answer. This workout program is designed to get you real results in less time, so you can start feeling like YOURSELF again!

You'll get the right kinds of exercise, in the right amount, so you can work with your hormones, not against them. And, you can do this at home, on your own time, with just a few sets of dumbbells.

I created Bolder STRONG because I believe the second half of our lives can (and should) be better than the first! This is exactly how I stay fit and strong at age 59, and it's how I train my clients, so I know it works!

Rita - Founder of Living Bolder

Hi, I'm Rita!

I'm the founder of Living Bolder, a menopause fitness specialist, certified nutrition coach, and former fitness studio owner. Over the past 14 years I have trained hundreds of women over 40. 

My personal fitness journey has been one of extremes. As a former overweight dancer, I spent years hating my body and punishing myself with restrictive diets, and over-exercising. But over time, I finally found balance. Today, I work out less and eat more than I ever have! 

I understand the unique challenges of midlife women. Trying to change your body after 40 or so IS harder, but it's also 100% possible. You don't have to do it alone... I can show you how!

My midlife clients often tell me: "My body has changed even though I haven't changed anything! What worked before is no longer working!" 

I will teach you how to get in the best shape of your life, at home with short, effective workouts that you actually look forward to doing.

I created Bolder STRONG for women just like you and me. This is exactly how I work out at age 59, and how I train my clients, so I know it gets results.

Clients Are Saying...

 

Sue S: 

I'm 60 this year and while I've always been active, the combo of COVID and menopause really changed my body.  So I did what I've always done — 45-60 minute aerobic workouts and light upper body weights, 5 days a week, for months. 

Nothing changed — until I found Rita and Bolder Strong.  In just 8 weeks of Bolder Strong workouts, I can tell a HUGE change in my body.  I am so much stronger and I look and feel great!!  Plus there are only 3 short workouts per week, plus one flexibility session.  Time saver!  Thank you, Rita!

Carol P:

I joined Rita’s Bolder STRONG 8-week fitness program hoping for the best. I've had severe back issues, so I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the workouts, especially with the weights. Rita makes it easy to keep up with an at home work out plan. All classes are less than 45 minutes, so it’s easy to squeeze in a workout any time. Some are as short as 20 minutes. In 8 weeks I feel like I’m getting stronger and more fit.

I've been working with Rita for years and I was hesitant to switch to the online Bolder Strong program because I wasn't sure if I'd really do it. I know myself and I felt if I didn't have a time and a place, I may not follow through. It was the total opposite! I've done several Bolder STRONG online programs and I love the flexibility of being able to do my workouts when I want. I can wake up, stay in my PJs, get it done and move on with my day! The FB group is a great accountability tool as well as great encouragement! It's fun to share our progress as we get stronger and stronger. Rita is a great coach, she provides alternatives to all the workouts in case you have injuries, limited mobility, etc. so it really can be for everyone. I give the program a 10/10!

I just finished Rita’s Bolder STRONG program and I could not be happier. I am 55 years old and have always worked out, but over the last few years I found my workouts weren’t as effective as they used to be. With Rita’s program, I found myself engaged and looking forward to each workout.  The classes are just the right amount of time to get the workout done and get on with your day. Rita demonstrates correct form for each exercise as well as modifications. I love her style. I sometimes feel like we are in the same room working out!  She makes it that enjoyable. Over the last 8 weeks I have tracked my progress (with the tracking forms Rita provided) and my strength has improved significantly! I find it very hard as a menopausal woman to lean out and build muscle. I am finally starting to see that!  I recently purchased another program from Rita. Can’t wait to get started. In the meantime, I will repeat this program. Not sure how I found Rita on Instagram, but I am so glad that I did!

I did the Bolder STRONG program and loved every minute of it! Rita is an exceptional instructor, and she made every session fun, exciting, and always rewarding. Her knowledge about fitness over 40 is exceptional and her delivery of that knowledge was easy to grasp and implement. The energy I got from this program was out of this world, and it made such a difference in the quality of my everyday life. I highly recommend Rita's programs!

Linda S

Rita’s programs are awesome, and I look forward to the workouts. The modifications and recommendations for exercises are great and I appreciate the fact she’s always available for any questions. I’m 75 and feeling stronger every day! Thanks, Rita!  

Amy M

It’s definitely harder to maintain my physical shape in my mid-40’s than it used to be. I completed Rita’s Bolder STRONG Program and loved the results so much, I’m doing it again. I could feel myself getting stronger as I was able to increase my weights. The results were not bulk, but long, lean muscle and overall tone.  

I really love about Rita’s teaching style. She doesn’t just say “WHAT” the exercise is, but “WHY” it's effective, which is a great motivator. She teaches in such a supportive and relatable manner it’s like working out with a friend. Rita makes safety a priority and I really appreciate all of her cueing to ensure proper form for maximum results. Plus, she gives modifications on many exercises to accommodate individual physical needs.

I love having a weekly plan, but the program is designed with “structured flexibility” that allows me to choose what feels “right” for my body on a given day. Bolder STRONG is a wonderful workout program for women at any age, and it’s perfect for me at this stage of my life.

Chrissi G

I just finished Rita's Bolder STRONG program - I feel good, and I feel stronger! I really appreciate workouts geared to midlife women and what we experience in our bodies. The workouts are quick, efficient and fit perfectly into my busy schedule. When I workout on my own, I tend to do the same things over and over.  I love how Rita is always changing up the workouts and has me working in all planes of motion. It's so important to keep our bodies flexible and moving in all directions.

Lou S

Rita, thank you!! I love what you have put together. Not always easy, but feels so good. Your structure is so flexible and I‘ve found that I love the Bonus sessions at the end of a tough class… just to keep stretching and cooling down. Your website is amazing — so well designed and user friendly! 

Amy C

I can't really express my thanks for you and your classes. I have never, NEVER stuck to any physical program ever. This has been a life changing step in my life. And for me, as a teacher, your teaching technique makes a huge difference. Thank you, Rita!  

Judy C

Hi, Rita ... LOVED this! Feels so good to be doing something to strengthen myself. Loved the music, too!
