Strength training for women in Brighton
Plenty of women tell us the weights floor feels intimidating. We keep the studio calm and private, so you can learn each lift at your own pace. Every woman we coach gets a plan built around her goals, whether that’s more muscle, better posture or simply feeling strong.
Confidence comes from small wins. We start light, teach you how to build a lift properly, and add load when you’re ready.

The studio

Equipment you will train with

Barbells & plates
Barbells, dumbbells and adjustable weight plates.
Kettlebells
Kettlebell training sets in a range of loads.
Suspension straps
Bodyweight work with suspension training straps.
Racks & conditioning
Benches, squat racks and a conditioning area.

Price vs value
Pay for quality, not the lowest rate
Pay for qualifications, proper screening and coaching quality rather than chasing the cheapest hour. A trainer who checks your history and adjusts each session is worth more. Rates vary by trainer, experience and session format, so a single average isn’t much use. Australian Fitness Network charges one clear rate for everyone.
- One clear rate: $100 per 45-minute session
- Health and injury history checked first
- Each session adjusted as you progress
Your first session
Pre-Exercise Screening and Body Composition Analysis
We run pre-exercise screening using forms aligned with Exercise & Sports Science Australia guidance, so we know your health history, past injuries and medications before we plan anything.
Technique first: safe, repeatable movement
We teach each lift slowly, with light loads and plenty of cues, until the technique holds up under fatigue. We demonstrate each movement, correct one cue at a time, and add load only once the pattern is solid and your joints are happy.
Your first session covers
- A short health and injury conversation
- A body composition analysis to set your starting point
- A movement check, then your first light block of training
- A clear goal for your first few weeks, written down so you can see it
Progress
How We Adjust a Program When Progress Stalls
Plateaus happen even to people who do everything right.
When your numbers hold steady
If your weight or lifts hold steady for several weeks, we don’t push harder on the same approach. We write a new program with a clear target and reset from there.
What we check first
We look at your steps and food logging for what is driving the numbers. Sometimes the fix is simple, such as more sleep or a change in exercise order, and we talk it through so you understand why the program changed.
Your goals
Set Realistic Goals and Perfect Your Form
We set realistic goals and perfect your form together, because a plan only works if you can keep to it each week. Bring your target and we’ll break it into sessions, habits and checkpoints.
Matching your fitness goal to a plan
Your fitness goal decides how we split strength, cardio and recovery. Whatever the goal, we measure physical fitness at the start so you can see real change.
Most goals fall into one of these
- Weight loss: a steady calorie deficit, regular strength work and daily steps
- Weight management: keeping results you’ve already earned
- Strength: heavier lifts, longer rests and gradual increases
- Sport: power, speed and conditioning for your game
A typical week
What a Week of Training Can Look Like

- 1
Warm-up
Warm-up and mobility to get your joints ready.
- 2
Lift
A squat or hinge, a push, a pull and a core exercise.
- 3
Condition
Ten minutes of aerobic exercise or high-intensity interval training.
