About Penny Barnshaw

Online personal trainer

Hey there, I’m Penny — and I’m so glad you’re here. I’ve been a certified Personal Trainer for 20+ years, but when I hit my 40s and started experiencing perimenopause, everything I thought I knew about my body shifted. Fatigue, weight gain, joint pain, and brain fog left me frustrated, even though I had the knowledge and tools. That’s when I realized I needed to adapt — not just push harder. By focusing on strength training, eating enough protein, and building sustainable habits, I found my energy and confidence again. Now, my mission is to help other women in perimenopause and beyond do the same — to feel strong, capable, and in control of their bodies again.
