Online Strength Coaching · Strong Over Skinny
Online strength coaching for women 40+ focused on real muscle, stronger bones, and energy that lasts for decades — not days. Coaching available online from anywhere, with in-person options for local clients ready to make the switch. Because you're not broken. You've just been using the wrong playbook.
Sound Familiar?
The motivation comes in waves, then life happens and you lose it all. There's a reason — and it's not willpower.
What worked in your 20s and 30s simply doesn't cut it now. Your muscle, bone density, and metabolism all need a different approach — one built for strength and longevity, not shrinking.
More cardio, less food, more stress — that cycle is burning you out, not building you up.
Midlife changes can feel like betrayal. But your body is adapting — it just needs the right support to thrive.
There's a smarter way. One that meets you exactly where you are.
My Story
I'm the founder of Set Apart Wellness — a wife, mom of 5 amazing kids, and grandma to 2 sweet grandbabies. But long before I was coaching other women, I was living this struggle myself.
I was thrown into perimenopause at just 38 — while teaching HIIT classes and personal training full-time. I was doing everything "right": constant cardio, low-calorie eating, pushing hard every day. And still, I was gaining weight, picking up nagging micro-tear injuries, and running on empty as a mom and trainer trying to hold it all together.
It took living through it myself to finally break the code: my body wasn't the same as it was in my 20s, so I couldn't keep treating it — or coaching other women — the same old way. Once I shifted to real strength training, proper fuel, and working with my body instead of against it, everything changed.
Today, I coach women online — 1:1 and in group programs — so you can train with me from anywhere, on your own schedule. If you're local, we can also start in-person and transition you into an online rhythm that fits your life.

Tanya's Personal Protocols
As part of my own wellness and recovery stack, I've incorporated peptides that support healing, longevity, and performance. These are the ones I personally use and recommend to clients who are curious about going deeper.
For research and educational purposes only. The peptides below are not FDA-approved to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, and are not intended as medical advice. Always consult your physician or qualified healthcare provider — such as Dr. Mike at Longevity Club — before starting any new protocol, supplement, or peptide. Individual results may vary. Peptides are a tool, not a replacement — they do not substitute for strength training and proper nutrition, which remain the foundation of any results.
The Healing Accelerator
BPC-157 is a naturally occurring peptide that supports gut lining integrity, accelerates tissue and tendon healing, and helps reduce inflammation. For midlife women dealing with joint discomfort, old injuries, or gut issues — this is a game changer.
The Tissue Rebuilder
TB-500 promotes tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and supports muscle regeneration by regulating actin — a protein essential for cell movement and repair. It works beautifully alongside BPC-157 for comprehensive healing support.
The Inflammation Fighter
KPV is a powerful anti-inflammatory peptide derived from alpha-MSH. It's particularly effective for calming gut inflammation, supporting immune balance, and helping the body recover from chronic stress — making it ideal for midlife women managing cortisol and gut health.
The Longevity & Skin Peptide
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide with remarkable regenerative properties. It stimulates collagen and elastin production, supports wound healing, and has been shown to activate genes associated with longevity. A true anti-aging powerhouse.
The Metabolic Optimizer
MOTS-C is a mitochondria-derived peptide that regulates metabolic function, improves insulin sensitivity, and supports healthy aging at the cellular level. It's particularly promising for midlife women navigating metabolic shifts and energy changes.
The Metabolic Reset
Retatrutide is an emerging peptide studied for its effects on metabolic regulation, appetite balance, and body composition. For midlife women navigating stubborn weight and slowed metabolism, it's one of the newer protocols generating a lot of interest in the longevity space.

Real Results
"I'd tried everything for years. Tanya's approach was the first thing that actually made sense for my body at 47. I'm stronger than I've ever been and I actually enjoy training now."
"The hormone piece changed everything for me. I stopped fighting my body and started working with it. Down 18 lbs and I haven't counted a single calorie."
"I kept thinking my best years were behind me. Tanya showed me that was absolutely not true. I feel more capable at 44 than I did at 34. This is what 'set apart' actually means."
