Temple Training

Sometimes progress doesn’t look like a PR.

Sometimes it sounds like:

“I walked up 4 steps.”

“I carried the case of water into the house, and my husband was impressed with how strong I am.”

Those wins matter.🎉

Because the goal of strength training isn’t simply to lift more weight. It’s to make life feel more possible.

To take the stairs. Carry the groceries. Get up and down with confidence. Do the things you used to avoid—or assumed you couldn’t do anymore.

That’s the kind of strength we’re building in StrongHer. Want to feel stronger in your everyday life? StrongHer was built for that.

**Strength for the gym. Strength for life.** 💪🏾

There’s more than one way to work with me — because not every woman needs the same kind of support.

Some women thrive in the energy and accountability of a small group.

Some need more individualized attention.

Others want the flexibility to train on their own schedule while still having a coach guiding the process.

That’s why Temple Training gives you options.

🏋🏾 StrongHer
Small-group strength coaching for women 40+ who want to build muscle, improve capacity and get stronger alongside other women.

💪🏾 1:1 Coaching
More individualized support for your goals, movement needs, training history and current capacity.

📲 Remote Coaching
Structured programming, accountability and coaching support that fits your schedule and location.

No matter which path you choose, we aren't chasing random workouts or punishment.

So what exactly is StrongHer?

It’s not a watered-down workout for women over 40.

And it’s not a class where everyone is expected to perform the same movement, use the same weight, or keep the same pace.

StrongHer is coached strength training for women in midlife.

We build muscle.
We practice the major movement patterns.
We improve capacity.
We develop power.
And we progressively challenge your body as it becomes ready for more.

Because I believe women 40+ should train to become more capable—not simply trying to avoid decline.

That also means your training should account for the body you bring into the gym that day.

Knees need a modification? We adjust.

New to lifting? We teach.

Ready to increase the challenge? We progress.

You get to train alongside other women while still receiving coaching that recognizes your capacity, your history, and your starting point.

The goal isn't simply to survive a hard workout.

The goal is to build a stronger body for the life you want to keep living.

In Gethsemane, Jesus told His disciples to watch and pray—and they repeatedly fell asleep.

This passage is not simply a lesson about needing more sleep. It reveals the limits of human strength.

The disciples wanted to remain faithful, but desire alone was not enough. They needed dependence, prayer, and spiritual alertness.

Our bodies have limits. Our willpower has limits. Pretending otherwise does not make us stronger.

True strength includes recognizing our weakness and staying close to God.

Join us Thursday at 7:00 PM ET as we study Mark 14 together.

Many women are physically tired because they are emotionally and spiritually carrying too much.

Restorative rhythms begin when we recognize the difference between responsibility and control.

You can be faithful without being frantic.
You can be committed without being constantly depleted.
You can care deeply without carrying what belongs to God.

This week, ask yourself:

What am I responsible for—and what am I trying to control?

You may not need more discipline, more intensity, or another plan that asks you to push through exhaustion.

You may need to recover better.

Fatigue, irritability, persistent soreness, trouble concentrating, and declining workout performance are not always signs that you are lazy or unmotivated. They may be signs that your body is carrying more stress than it can currently recover from.

Your body is not failing you.
It is giving you information.

That is why I do not begin coaching by simply handing someone a hard workout.

Through assessment-led personal training, we look at how you move, what your body tolerates, where you feel strong, where you feel limited, and what your current lifestyle can realistically support.

Then we build from there.

Because progress does require challenge—but the right challenge, applied at the right time, with enough recovery to adapt.

You do not need punishment.
You need a thoughtful plan that meets you where you are and helps you grow stronger over time.

Sleep is an act of physical rest, but it can also become an act of spiritual surrender.

When we lie down, we acknowledge that God remains awake. He continues to work while we release what we cannot control.

This does not mean every night of sleep will be easy. It means we can bring our racing thoughts, unfinished responsibilities, and anxious hearts to the One who watches over us.

Reflection question:
What are you carrying into the night that God is inviting you to release?

Save this verse and read it before bed this week.

We often treat rest as something we are allowed to have only after everything is finished.

But the work is rarely completely finished.

Rest is not a reward for exhaustion. It is one of the ways we care for the body God entrusted to us.

This month, we are exploring Restorative Rhythms & Sleep Stewardship—learning how sleep, recovery, strength training, nourishment, and time with God work together.

You do not need another season of running yourself into the ground.

You need rhythms that help you remain present, faithful, and strong.

Comment RESTORE if you are ready to build healthier rhythms this month.

I’m learning that some of the deepest growth happens when we slow down enough to truly sit with God’s Word.

This fall, we’ll journey through James and Ruth—two books that beautifully complement one another.

📖 James calls us to a faith that is lived, tested, and transformed.

🌾 Ruth reminds us that God’s faithfulness is present even in seasons of uncertainty, loss, and waiting.

My prayer is that we won’t simply read these books, but that we’ll allow them to read us—to shape our hearts, strengthen our faith, and draw us closer to Jesus.

I’m looking forward to all that God has in store for this next season of Abide & Flow. 💛
