Who This Is For
Strength Over 40
After forty, strength stops being about how much you can lift and starts being about everything else: moving through the day with ease, staying strong for the things you love, and not letting old habits become permanent postures.
That is the work this studio is built for. Private, unhurried, one-on-one - and every programme starts by measuring how you move now, so progress is real and visible, not guessed.
How It Works Here
Built around your body now
A full postural and movement assessment before any training - strengths, weaknesses and tightness mapped, then trained deliberately.
Strength that complements
Clients pair this training with Pilates, golf, running or simply staying capable. The programme strengthens what your life asks of you.
A studio, not a gym floor
Sessions are booked and the space is yours. No crowd, no mirrors full of twenty-year-olds, no one waiting on the rack.

Questions people ask
- Is strength training safe after 40?
- It is one of the most useful things you can do after 40, provided it starts from an assessment rather than a template. Every programme here begins by measuring how you move now, and load is prescribed from that and adjusted as you get stronger.
- I already do Pilates or golf. Does this replace that?
- No, it complements it. Clients pair this training with Pilates, golf, running or simply staying capable; the programme strengthens what your life asks of you.
- What is the studio like?
- A private, booked studio, not a gym floor. Sessions are one-on-one, the space is yours for the hour, and there is no crowd and no one waiting on the rack.

Joe and rod are the best trainers in new Zealand. I've trained with Joe for many years and seen amazing results. The Raw Enerchi team create personalized workouts that fit my needs perfectly and get the best out of me each time I enter the gym. I've gained noticeable strength, fitness and confidence because of that over the years and it's transformed who I am. However what I appreciate most is their motivating and supportive approach. Each session is full of craic which makes it even more fulfilling. If you're looking for a dedicated and effective personal coach, I highly recommend the raw enerchi team.
