Doing Everything Right and Still Not Seeing Results?

After 40, your metabolism shifts. Your hormones fluctuate. You start losing muscle every year without even realizing it. So the things that used to work, more cardio, random classes, eating less, suddenly stop working. You end up tired, frustrated, and wondering what happened to the energy you used to have.

The scale keeps creeping up even though you are eating less
You feel tired and sluggish most days
Your joints ache and you are scared of getting hurt
You just want to feel confident in your body and feel like yourself again
Group classes feel like they were built for 25 year olds
You have tried diet after diet and nothing sticks
You're tired of guessing. You just want to walk in the door, be told what to do, how to do it, and get results.

It is not your fault. You just need a plan built for this season of life.

Honor Your Body

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit?" 1 Corinthians 6:19

We believe your body is a gift, and taking care of it is an act of worship. That is why we exist. We are not a big box gym and we are not a bootcamp. We are a coaching studio built on relationships.

Community and fellowship at Temple Fitness

We specialize in women 40+

Our programming is built around how your body actually changes with age and hormones.

Coaching, not just workouts

Every session is coached. You are never left wondering what to do.

Nutrition is the foundation

We believe nutrition is a huge part of creating longevity and real transformation, so it is built into how we coach you.

A Christ-centered family

Our members pray for each other, celebrate each other, and show up for each other.

From Frustration to Freedom

Hear Their Journeys

Real results from real women of the Temple Fitness family.

"After celebrating my 50th birthday, I found myself feeling unlike the active, energetic person I had always been. I had never really struggled with weight until perimenopause hit. After 8 months in the program, I graduated from nutrition coaching with a 25 pound weight loss."

Wendy Jones

"Thanks to nutrition coaching with Yolanda and strength training in the M4 classes I have lost over 35 pounds and I'm eating more food than I ever have! I'm a grandma and in the best shape of my life!"

Kristi Riley

"Temple Fitness has transformed my life and health forever. In 6 months I lost over 50 pounds and 43 inches. I no longer need any medications. I am the fittest and healthiest I've ever been."

Lisa Friedl

"Learning how to macro track and strength train has been transformational. I've gained 20 pounds of muscle and competed in powerlifting, I can deadlift 300 pounds!"
