Empowering Women To Lift: Science-Backed Strength Programs by Sarah Slade.

As a women’s health physiotherapist and female strength coach, I have created online programs designed to support women lifting weights at every life stage. From prenatal and postnatal athletes to women navigating menopause, these science-backed programs help you stay strong, train with intention, and feel powerful for life.

Women deserve expert-led training that truly understands their unique physiology. That’s why each program is thoughtfully designed around the specific needs of your current life stage. Grounded in science-informed training principles and prioritising strength work, my programs aim to help you feel empowered, confident, and proud of what your body can achieve on your journey as an athletic woman.

The Athletic Female Postnatal Plan

From Postnatal to Peak Performance

Rebuild your strength. Reclaim your athleticism. Feel stronger than ever in motherhood.

This is Your 8-Week Return-to-Performance Plan

Designed by myself Sarah Slade,  a pelvic health physio and female strength coach, this programme bridges the gap between early postnatal rehab and full athletic training — safely, progressively, and confidently.

Whether you’re a lifelong athlete or simply love to train hard, this plan supports your journey back to powerful, capable movement after childbirth.
