In-home training
What 1:1 training in Sarasota looks like
She comes to you
Sessions happen in a home gym, condo gym or garage setup. No commute, no waiting for equipment, no one watching.
Hands-on form coaching
Every lift gets taught and corrected in person, which is the fastest way to train hard without hurting something.
Nutrition that fits real life
Individual calorie and protein targets, plus how to eat out, travel and still make progress.
Built for beginners
Most clients start with little or no lifting experience. The plan starts where they actually are.
Strength first
Training is built around getting stronger rather than punishing cardio and endless classes.
Free consultation first
A relaxed call to talk goals, injuries and schedule before anyone commits to anything.
5-star reviews
What local clients say
“I had huge doubt in myself but Emily guided me through losing 44 lbs while on a GLP-1. She taught me about nutrition, water intake, discipline, and what lifting can do on a weight loss journey. After six months, I am confident in my body again.”
“She created an actionable, realistic plan that fit into my busy life. I lost weight and inches, but I also gained strength, confidence, and a completely new mindset. The tools she gave me are things I'll use for the rest of my life.”
“Emily's program changed my life. The workouts were tailored to my gym and easy to follow, and the nutrition piece was the game changer. She helped me raise my calories and balance my intake, and I finally have food freedom.”
Why work with Emily
Why work with Emily
Every coach gives you workouts, nutrition targets, check-ins, and accountability. Those are the baseline, not the reason you get results. The real difference is who is on the other end of the messages, and the experience behind it: hundreds of women coached. Emily does not coach like a bodybuilder, she coaches like a regular woman with a job, a social life, and a normal schedule: flexible eating, dinners out, a few strong sessions a week, and no endless cardio.
You hire the person, not the PDF
Workouts, macros, check-ins, accountability: every coach offers those. What you cannot copy and paste is Emily herself, honest and funny and actually invested in your week.
Hundreds of women coached
You are also hiring the experience. Emily has coached hundreds of women through fat loss, muscle gain, plateaus, and real life, so she has already seen whatever your body is doing.
A regular woman, not a bodybuilder
Some coaches live for training. Emily does not. She does it because it is part of the game, not because she is motivated, and she coaches clients on how to get it done on the days they do not want to.
Food you actually like
No chicken and rice at every meal, no cheat days, no starting over Monday. Emily loves to eat and builds nutrition around real food, dinners out, birthdays, and vacations.
4 to 5 hours a week, not 3 hours a day
Efficient strength sessions built for women with jobs, kids, and commutes.
No overdoing the cardio
Cardio is a tool, not a punishment. Just enough to support your goals without running off the muscle you are working to build.
Strength over shrinking
The goal is a stronger, athletic body you want to live in, not the smallest version restriction can produce.
Talks like a friend, coaches like a pro
No shame, no lectures, no copy paste check-ins. Emily answers her own messages and remembers your life.
Built for the long game
You learn how your body responds and how to adjust, so results hold after coaching ends.
5 clients a month, on purpose
New 1:1 spots stay capped so coaching stays personal. Never a number waiting on an assistant coach.
