From Struggle to Strength: Why I Created Bodies by Colotti

You Deserve a Fitness Program That Understands You.

Most fitness programs weren’t built for women over 40. They focus on punishing workouts, unrealistic expectations, and diets that don’t last. I know, because I’ve been there.

I struggled with my weight, battled injuries, and felt frustrated that nothing seemed to work for my body. I wanted to feel strong, confident, and in control again—but the fitness world wasn’t made for women like me.

That’s why I built Bodies by Colotti—a place where women over 40 can train for life, gain strength without pain, and finally see results that last.

My Journey

From Feeling Stuck to Feeling Strong

From the Beginning

Growing up, I was always active. Whether it was playing backyard wiffle ball at family BBQs or catching, pitching, and playing goalie in soccer, movement was part of my life. But injuries kept getting in the way. No matter how much I loved fitness, my body seemed to fight back.

The Turning Point

Despite earning a Bachelor’s in Exercise Science and a Master’s in Kinesiology/Sport Nutrition, I still struggled with my own fitness. I went through a major transformation in 2014, losing 100 pounds and even competing in powerlifting. But after another surgery, the weight came back—and I felt like I was back at square one.

Why I Get It

(And Why That Matters for You)

I know what it’s like to feel like your body is working against you. To wonder if it’s too late to turn things around. To feel lost in a fitness industry that wasn’t designed for real women with real lives.

That’s why Bodies by Colotti isn’t just a gym—it’s a community where women like you can

Find workouts designed for your body—not workouts that leave you in pain.

Get expert coaching that actually understands how to train women over 40

Build strength and confidence in an environment where you belong.

What We Believe at Bodies by Colotti

Age is Just a Number

You’re not “too old” to feel strong, energized, and confident. You just need the right approach.

Community Over Competition

This isn’t a gym where you feel judged—it’s a space where you feel supported.

We Train for Life

Our programs aren’t about quick fixes—they’re about helping you stay strong, active, and independent for decades to come.

Fitness Should Work for Your Life

No two bodies are the same, and no two schedules are either. That’s why we focus on realistic, sustainable fitness.

Bodies By Colotti is special. It’s a gem in Kingston and I am so happy to be a part of it. Mental Health is so important and one thing that maybe isn’t talked about as much is the mental health benefits you get from working out, especially in this particular setting.

It’s empowering, it’s strengthening and encouraging. It’s fun, it’s challenging and it gives me motivation to keep on top of other things as well. One of my favorite parts of my day is time at Bodies By Colotti!
