Meet Megan | Female Personal Trainer Brisbane
When Megan Brown took over The Evolved All Female Gym in 2023, it was more than a business decision.
It was about keeping a dream alive for the women of Brisbane. She had seen firsthand how much this space meant to women searching for strength, confidence, and community.
Megan refused to let that vision die with the old owners. Instead, she poured her heart into completely renewing the energy of the gym, inside and out, creating a place where women of every age could thrive.
“Strength isn’t just about lifting weights. It’s about building a body that keeps up with your life, your ambitions, and the people who rely on you.” – Megan Brown
From Dancer to Women's Strength Coach
Megan’s journey into strength coaching began long before she took ownership of The Evolved. As a former dancer, she had always been connected to movement, but life had other plans.
Between the demands of running a business and becoming a mum twice over, Megan felt the same struggles many women face. Fatigue, injuries, and the never-ending juggle of responsibilities left her wondering how to prioritise her own body without burning out.
She knows what it feels like to push through pain, to doubt whether you have the time or energy, and to want to feel like yourself again.
The Diagnosis That Changed Everything
In 2017, just 18 months after giving birth to her second child, Megan was diagnosed with chronic fatigue. Suddenly, everything she thought she knew about training and resilience was challenged.
She had to relearn how to move, how to fuel her body properly, and most importantly, how to leave enough energy in the tank for the demands of motherhood and running a business.
This difficult chapter reshaped her entire approach to health. Instead of chasing exhaustion, Megan discovered the power of training smarter and prioritising recovery.
It became clear that true strength was not about doing more but about finding the right balance to support long-term health and energy.
Growth, Recognition, and The FitMum Method
Megan has been part of the fitness industry since 2013 and has owned and run body transformation businesses since 2014. Along the way, she qualified as a Metabolic Nutritionist and earned certifications in personal training and body transformation.
She sought out world-class mentorship, learning under Dr Paul Cribb PhD and Sharlene Sault, who helped refine her scientific approach to training and nutrition.
Drawing on her recovery from chronic fatigue, Megan created the FitMum Method, a program designed to help mums rebuild their strength and confidence postpartum without sacrificing their health.
Her work began to stand out across the fitness industry. In 2019, she was awarded Female Transformation Specialist of the Year, recognition of the results she was delivering and the compassion she brought to her coaching.
Megan's Coaching Philosophy
Megan believes strength training should fit into your life, not the other way around. Her philosophy is rooted in efficiency, injury prevention, and helping women feel in control of their bodies.
She understands the realities of fatigue, time pressures, and fluctuating energy because she has lived them herself.
Having worked with hundreds of women across Brisbane, Megan has guided clients through every stage of life: from teenage years to post-menopause.
Her coaching proves that strength training is not about punishment or extremes. It is about building a body that supports you in every season of life.
For Strong Women, Inside and Out
Megan’s passion for strong women extends beyond the gym. She is a proud supporter of the arts, donating regularly to the Queensland Ballet in West End, and she loyally backs Women’s Legal Service QLD, taking part in their annual River to Rooftop fundraiser.
For Megan, supporting these causes is part of the same mission she lives out every day: empowering women to stand taller, move with confidence, and live stronger lives.
How Megan Coaches at The Evolved
At The Evolved, Megan leads by example. She coaches women to build the strength they need not only for the gym but for the rest of their lives.
Whether it is helping a new mum regain confidence, guiding a woman through perimenopause, or coaching someone toward their first personal best, Megan brings empathy, expertise, and lived experience to every session.
She knows the challenges. She has walked the path. And, she is here to make sure no woman has to do it alone.

Real Women. Real Results.
Here’s what happens when women stop guessing and start training with structure.
Helen, 54
"Postmenopause hit hard for Helen, constant fatigue, a busy home life, and the weight just wouldn’t budge. With a move, rep hockey, and full-time work, she had every reason to pause. But by committing to smart strength training at The Evolved, Helen rebuilt her body. at 54"
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.”
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.

Are their any joining fees?
Nope, no joining fees, hidden costs, or surprises. You only pay for your training, nothing else.

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.

No lock-ins here, just a 30-day cancellation notice across all services.

We’re here when you're ready, no pressure, no hard sells.

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.
