Coaching You Can Trust

Fit Over 40 is coached by Amy Freeman, one of Empower’s most experienced and approachable coaches — especially for adults getting back into fitness.

Amy didn’t grow up loving the gym. She avoided sports, felt awkward in fitness spaces, and struggled to find a routine that felt like it fit. That experience shapes how she coaches today.

Amy has seen firsthand, through her work in healthcare, how strength, movement, and consistency improve quality of life as we age. That perspective shows up in every class: smart warm-ups, thoughtful progressions, and workouts that help you feel better outside the gym, not just during class.

Fit Over 40 FAQs

Do I need to be fit to start Fit Over 40?

No. This program is designed for people at all levels of fitness, not people who are already in peak shape. Every workout is scalable, and you’ll be coached through options that match your ability.

Is this a CrossFit class?

No. Fit Over 40 is a standalone group fitness program focused on strength, conditioning, and movement — without pressure, competition, or complex skills.

What if I have injuries or limitations?

That’s common — especially over 40. Coach Amy offers modifications and progressions so you can train safely while still being challenged.

Do I need a gym membership?

No membership is required. Fit Over 40 is open to non-members.

What happens if the program is full?

Spots open periodically. Joining the waitlist ensures you’ll be notified first when space becomes available.
