You're stuck between wanting to stay strong and not knowing where to start
You’re an active adult or athlete who won’t settle for “just live with it.” But typical physical therapy clinics keep you waiting, give you one-size-fits-all treatments, and focus only on getting you out of pain—not on restoring full strength, optimizing movement, and keeping you injury-free for good.
You're navigating perimenopause or menopause
Hormonal changes are affecting your energy, muscle mass, and bone density—and you need a training approach that understands your body's unique needs right now.
Generic gym programs don't work for you
Cookie-cutter fitness plans ignore age-related changes, past injuries, and the need for proper form guidance, leaving you frustrated or risking reinjury.
You want safe, expert guidance
You need more than just a trainer—you need someone who understands how alignment, strength, and recovery work together as your body changes.

Our women's training program in Asheville combines the expertise of a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist with the support of a small group community.

"I found Outshine when looking for strength training options specific to being in perimenopause. I found it and so much more with Dr. Sieara and Dr. Maggie! They are both highly knowledgeable and always meet you where you are at, which has allowed me to trust my body and feel stable and strong again. I can't thank them enough for creating such a safe and inspiring space for women in midlife and beyond!"

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need prior strength training experience?
No experience required! Our program is designed for women of all fitness levels. Whether you've never touched a weight or you're returning to training after a break, we meet you where you are. Dr. Sieara and Dr. Maggie provide hands-on coaching to ensure proper form and build your confidence from day one.
What makes your program different from a regular gym?
You're not just getting a trainer—you're training with a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist who understands how your body changes during perimenopause and menopause. We address bone density, muscle mass, alignment, injury prevention, and modifications specific to your needs. Plus, our small group format (3-6 women) ensures individualized attention every session.
​
How does the small group training work?
You'll train twice per week in small groups of 3-6 women at similar fitness levels and life stages. Each session is coached by Dr. Sieara, and programming is individualized based on your goals, current abilities, and any limitations. The group format creates accountability and community while maintaining the personalized attention you need. Month-to-month commitment—no long-term contracts.
​
Can I train if I have osteoporosis or past injuries?
Absolutely. In fact, that's our specialty. As physical therapists, we're uniquely qualified to modify exercises around injuries, osteoporosis, chronic conditions, or movement limitations. Many of our clients join us specifically because they need expert guidance on how to strength train safely around these issues.
​
What's the time commitment and cost?
Our program meets twice per week, with flexible scheduling options including morning and evening sessions. Sessions are approximately 60 minutes. For current availability, pricing, and to discuss which session times work best for you, schedule a free phone consultation. We'll answer all your questions with no pressure.
