Why Muscle Matters
Sarcopenia Starts Early
Women begin losing muscle around age 30, up to 250g per year. Without strength training, this silent decline accelerates every decade. If you’re not building it, you’re losing it.
Stress Hijacks Your Hormones
Strength training is linked to a lower risk of dementia. It protects your brain by improving blood flow, reducing inflammation, and supporting healthy hormones.
Joints Weaken Silently
Women who can split-squat 50% of their body weight for 10 reps have stronger hips, knees, and ankles and dramatically lower risk of injury and osteoporosis.
Unseen Bone Loss Accelerates
Strength training is linked to a lower risk of dementia. It protects your brain by improving blood flow, reducing inflammation, and supporting healthy hormones.
Whether you're 25 or 65, it's not too early and it's never too late.
Here's how we make it work for you.
If You Are Under 30
If you're under 30, now is your golden window. This is your best chance to build and bank muscle like a retirement fund, one that pays dividends in energy, confidence, and future independence.
If You Are Over 30
It’s not too late, but now is the time. Muscle doesn’t come easy anymore. Stress is higher. Sleep is worse. Hormones fluctuate. Our program accounts for all of these challenges
We intentionally program intensity levels to meet the gold-standard recommendations for women who find it hardest to build muscle so that every woman benefits, regardless of her starting point.
The Research Shows
Leading strength and conditioning experts including the National Strength & Conditioning Association (NSCA) recommend that women over 50 lift 70–85% of their 1-rep max, at least 2–3 times per week, to preserve and rebuild muscle mass.
What Happens If You Train v.s
If You Don't Train
Strength training can preserve up to 80% of your muscle mass even into your 80s. Without it, you could lose over half.
This level of effort isn’t optional, it’s essential. And in many cases, it can reverse age-related muscle loss.
Ready Future Proof Your Body?
Real Women. Real Results.
Here’s what happens when women stop guessing and start training with structure.
Ruth, 2 Kids
“After her second child, Ruth was burning out, training hard, sleeping little, and getting nowhere. By shifting to smarter strength training and recovery-focused habits at The Evolved, she reclaimed her energy, shed 4cm off her waist, and finally found balance. Ruth didn’t quit, she evolved.”
Tash, Night Shift Nurse
“After a serious health scare, Tash turned her life around. As a night-shift nurse with a Coca-Cola habit, she swapped cardio for strength training, dropped 20kg, and reclaimed her confidence, all while working nights. Now, she’s not just healthier… she’s unstoppable.”
Vicki, Finance Industry
“At 50, Vicki was training hard but getting nowhere. After just 7 weeks at The Evolved, she increased her protein, lifted smarter, and unlocked visible abs, a 60kg squat, and her first chin-up. Her secret? Recovery, strength and the right plan.”
Eleni Swapped Pilates for Strength Training and Unlocked Strength at 63
“Leni left a clinical rehab gym at 63 to chase a younger more energetic vibe. Now she lifts 40kg, rocks her favourite black skirt to a Goo Goo Dolls concert, and feels 30 years younger. She’s proof that age doesn’t define your limits, strength does.”

Whether you’re an early riser, work full time, or juggle school drop-offs there’s a session for you.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I come and see the gym before booking a Strength Assessment?
We’d love to welcome every visitor but truthfully, we’re far too busy delivering a high level of service to our members to handle casual drop-ins.
We operate by appointment only and currently have a long waiting list of women patiently waiting for an opportunity to join.
Your best next step?
Join the Priority List and if a Strength Assessment spot becomes available, grab it fast.
Not only will you get to see the gym, but more importantly, you’ll walk away knowing:
- Exactly where your starting point is
- How we can support your goals
What kind of training, schedule, and support you actually need to build strength, muscle, improve bone density, and feel in control of your health again.
It’s a no-pressure, no-obligation session just clarity, direction, and a warm welcome.
How much does it cost?
It really depends on your goals, training experience, injuries, and any medical conditions. We don’t believe in throwing out a price for a service that might not suit you or worse, waste your time and money.
That’s why every woman starts with a no-obligation Strength Assessment. It’s how we recommend the right program, not just any program.
Join the Priority List to be notified when a spot becomes available. Our assessments often book out within hours.
What happens on the first visit?
You’ll meet with one of our expert female coaches for a gentle Strength Assessment. No pressure to join, no judgement either.
She’ll identify your starting point and walk you through a personalised plan that fits your goals, lifestyle, training history, and budget.
It’s not a sales pitch. It’s how we set you up for success with clarity and confidence from day one.
Join the Priority List now to be first in line for our next intake.
Are their any joining fees?
Nope, no joining fees, hidden costs, or surprises. You only pay for your training, nothing else.
I’m already training elsewhere. What makes this different?
Most gyms give you a workout and it’s random every week.
At The Evolved, we give you a 12-month roadmap grounded in real science and built around the longevity markers that matter for women.
We start by taking the time to assess your true starting point with a 1-on-1 Strength Assessment so your program is not just effective, but safe, sustainable, and specific to you.
Our training is periodised and phased, backed by the world’s top experts in women’s strength and ageing.
You’ll never burn out, always make progress, and feel in full control of your body and that’s priceless.
Join the Priority List now and if a Strength Assessment spot opens up, grab it quickly (they go fast).
Are there any lock in contracts?
No lock-ins here, just a 30-day cancellation notice across all services.
This gives us space to plan your training properly and gives you room to push through the tough weeks without quitting on your goals too soon.
We’re here when you're ready, no pressure, no hard sells.
Join the Priority List to secure your chance when a spot opens.
Is this like a regular gym?
Not at all. We're not a commercial gym with crowds, confusing equipment, or $10 swipe-and-sweat memberships.
This is female-specific coaching designed for your body, stage of life, and long-term health.
For 1:1 Personal training in Brisbane you can expect to pay between $100–$150 for a single session, our members can train as many times as they like per week for less than a single 1:1 PT session.
It all starts with a Strength Assessment, so we can recommend a plan that’s safe, smart, and worth your time.
Join the Priority List to be first in line when spots open.
Am I too old to start strength training?
Absolutely not. In fact, starting strength training after 40 is one of the smartest things a woman can do for her body, brain, and bones.
Most of our members are between 40–65 years old, and many begin with zero gym experience.
Our entire system is designed around the unique needs of peri-menopausal, postmenopausal, and ageing women, with strength standards and modifications that help you feel stronger, move better, and stay independent longer.
Not sure where to start?
Join our Priority List and book a Strength Assessment and we’ll map out a gentle, personalised path based on where you are now.
I haven’t exercised in 10+ years… is this too advanced for me?
Not at all.
You’ll begin with a gentle Strength Assessment where we meet you exactly where you’re at, no pressure, no expectations.
Our beginner-friendly on-boarding focuses on movement confidence, not performance. You’ll feel safe, seen, and supported from Day 1.
If it’s been a while between exercise for you, we’ll likely recommend our Fast Track membership which includes one-on-one personal training each week.
It’s the best way to learn faster, adapt exercises to your body, and build confidence across multiple sessions.
Join the Priority List & book your Strength Assessment to find out if Fast Track is right for you, our best results start there
I’ve had injuries or chronic pain… can I still join?
Yes and in fact, that’s one of the most common reasons women come to us.
We specialise in form correction, injury prevention, and training around pain or limitations. Our coaches are experts in safe, intelligent strength training and we work closely with physios and allied health professionals to ensure your plan supports your body, not stresses it.
Already have a treatment team? We’re happy to collaborate.
