FROM THE MET COMMUNITY
" A customized, tailor-made, really individualized experience that is so much more than streaming a workout class. I considered Thea an essential part of my birthing team. I’ve never felt more powerful and comfortable in my body. "
Corinna, Member of Max Effort Training Club since June 2020
Max Effort Training gave me the tools to take my health to the next level. Thea provides challenging and fun workouts, and is an absolute wealth of knowledge on all things nutrition. She also helped me fine tune my (plant-based) meals. I feel very confident with all of the knowledge I've gained and new habits I've formed with Thea's coaching.
Jacinda
How Thea approaches wellness from a holistic standpoint is fantastic. I have tried so many programs (and have been working out seriously for 10+ years) and this is one of the best programs that I’ve been a part of. I find it challenging, I have progressed so much, Thea is really motivating, and the price is incredible for personal training.

During one of the most stressful times in my life, I've gotten into the best shape of my life. I can't recommend this enough. Having the camaraderie of other people going through the program has been really helpful also.

I signed up during my first trimester and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. I've never felt more powerful or comfortable in my body and considered Thea an essential part of my birthing team.

FAQ's
How do I get my workouts?
Your weekly workout program will be available to you in the TrueCoach app (mobile and desktop). Once you have enrolled, you will receive an email to sign-up. Once you have submitted your personal questionnaire, your workouts will be populated. Each exercise is paired with a video demonstration, workout description, and the ability to ask me questions or leave notes regarding the workout.
When do I do my workouts?
You can complete your workout any time of the day you like! While workouts will be scheduled on specific days of the week, you can always adjust if something comes up. Life happens!
I don’t have the same equipment as you do.
No sweat! Once enrolled, you will have access to a welcome kit that provides everything you need to get setup. Including tips and strategies on equipment. Each exercise programmed will have options for bodyweight, resistance, or weight variations. As well as notes on progression/regression to either bump up or turn down the intensity of an exercise.
Do I need to lift heavy?
With this program you will work on learning, mastering, and mobilizing a movement patterns (aka an exercise) before I encourage you to add weight. What you lift, or the resistance used is up to you. That said, if your goal is to build muscle and/or lose body fat adding weights/resistance will be essential to seeing results.
Why Strength Training?
Incorporating weights/resistance with time under tension is one of the best ways to building lean muscle mass, lower body fat, strengthen your range of motion, and avoid injury so that you feel good and move better.
At what fitness level should I be to join the program?
The program is tailored and scalable for all fitness levels. It's made for you, whether you're a recreational enthusiast or an everyday athlete, at home or while traveling, interested in working out 2x a week, or 5x.
I need help with my exercises form.
Great! Take a video doing a few reps and upload them to the respective exercise in TrueCoach. I’ll take a look and provide feedback.
Can I train while pregnant?
The short answer is, yes! Once cleared by a Women's Health Physician building strength and lean muscle mass is so important throughout pregnancy and in labor.
This program is tailored for wherever you are at in your journey. From second-trimester balance changes, to new mom time-constraints.
How do I integrate the Nutrition and Habit Guideline portion?
Think of this program as a crash-course guide to your well-being. Each week you will have access to foundational information and guidelines on both nutrition and habit creation. The goal is to stack your tools and habits each week with the plan provided!
Do I need to complete the workbooks?
The program is really what you make of it. The more you put in, the more progress you will see, and applicable tools you will develop. Especially with regards to these workbook questions -- they are the catalyst for creating and attaining goals. Try and carve out non-negotiable time each week to complete the questions.
When are the small-group coaching calls?
Our small-group coaching call will be held during Week 2 via Google Hangouts Video. Once you have enrolled there will be provided steps to schedule one of the times!
What happens if I have a question mid-week?
