What Does Personal Training for Women in Phoenix Include?

Personal training for women in Phoenix at Form Fitness means working 1-on-1 with Hannah Pithers, a certified trainer since 2009. Women come to build strength, lose weight, train through pregnancy and postpartum, and to stay strong after 40, 50 and beyond. Sessions are $100 at our Midtown Phoenix studio, $150 in your home, or $200 a month online.

Maybe you've never lifted a weight. Maybe you used to be active and life got in the way: a new job, a baby, an illness, or a few years that went by faster than you expected. You don't need to get in shape before you start training. That's what Hannah is for.

Wherever you're starting, she'll meet you there and build a plan that fits your body and your schedule. Book a free consultation and we'll figure out the rest together.

Why Phoenix Women Train With Hannah


Hannah knows what it's like to start over. She lived with Crohn's disease for years, and in 2017 she had lifesaving surgery to remove her large intestine. She left the hospital at 114 lbs on a 5'10" frame. Within six months she had rebuilt her muscle and strength, and she went on to compete on American Ninja Warrior with her ostomy bag proudly on display.

Hannah has been a certified personal trainer since 2009, and she's also a yoga instructor. She co-owns Form Fitness with her husband, Matt, and she specializes in helping women rebuild after illness, surgery or childbirth, along with complete beginners. Her belief is simple: there's no such thing as too far gone.

What Can Personal Training Do for Women?

Most women don't need a harder workout. They need a smart one they'll stick with, from someone who understands how a woman's body and life change over the years.

Build and Keep Your Muscle

Muscle loss starts earlier than most people expect. NIH News in Health reports that it begins around age 30, at about 3 to 5 percent per decade. Sarcopenia, or age related muscle loss, raises the risk of falls, broken bones and losing your independence. Strength training is the most direct way to push back. You don’t have to accept muscle loss.

Support Stronger Bones

To build bone density, your muscles have to pull on your bones. MedlinePlus, from the National Institutes of Health, lists careful weight training with machines or free weights as one way to do that, and Hannah adds bodyweight exercises too. Strength training helps you build stronger bones.

Get Stronger and Leaner, Not Bulkier

The American College of Sports Medicine's 2026 resistance training guidance found that the biggest jump in results comes from going from no strength training to some. For most women, that shows up as more strength, better posture and clothes that fit differently. No need to worry about creating big, overly bulky muscles, as that will never happen by accident.

Make Fitness Fit Real Life

The CDC's guidelines for adults call for 150 minutes of moderate activity a week plus strength work on at least two days. Training at the studio, at home or online makes those two days realistic, even in a busy week.

How Does Personal Training for Women Work?

It starts with a conversation, and your plan grows with you from there.

1.

Free consultation: Meet Hannah at the studio or over video chat. You'll talk about your goals, your health history, any injuries or conditions, and your schedule.

2.

Assessment: Hannah checks your strength, mobility and measurements, so you have a clear starting point to track your progress from.

3.

Your plan: Train at the studio, at home or online, with practical nutrition guidance along the way. Online clients get their workouts each week in the Form Fitness app.

4.

Check-ins every 4 weeks: Hannah re-evaluates and adjusts the plan as you get stronger. Many people feel a difference within a few weeks, and making it a lasting habit usually takes six months to a year.

Our Approach: Keep It Simple

01 Keep it simple

Proven lifts and methods, not whatever exercise is trending this month.

02 Start where you are

Your first session is built for the body you have today, not the one you had ten years ago.

03 Strength first, for LIFE

The goal is to be strong at 70, not just ready for one event.

04 Real support

Hannah checks in, adjusts your plan and keeps you showing up, on the good weeks and the hard ones.

FAQs About Personal Training for Women

How much does personal training for women cost in Phoenix?

At Form Fitness, an in-studio session is $100 with no contract, or $95 a session with a 10-session package and $90 with 24. In-home training starts at $150 a session, and online coaching is $200 a month. Your first consultation is free.

How often should women strength train?

Aim for at least two days a week that work all of your major muscle groups. That's the minimum in both the CDC's physical activity guidelines for adults and the American College of Sports Medicine's 2026 resistance training guidance. Hannah will set the right number for your goals, schedule and recovery.

Will lifting weights make me bulky?

For most women, no. Adding a lot of muscle size takes years of training and eating aimed at that goal. What most women notice instead is more strength, better posture and a leaner shape, and Hannah builds your program around the way you want to look and feel.

I'm new to exercise or out of shape. Can I still start?

Yes. You're never too far gone to begin. Hannah starts with an assessment and builds from where you are today. If you'd rather start on your own, her Start Strong 90-day program for beginners walks you through the basics, and her article on feeling less intimidated at the gym can help with the first step.

Can you work around a health condition or recovery from surgery?

Yes. Helping people rebuild after chronic illness, surgery or childbirth is Hannah's specialty, and she rebuilt her own strength after major abdominal surgery. For some conditions we'll ask for clearance from your doctor first, and anything new or getting worse should be checked by a doctor before you train.

Can you train me online?

Yes. Online clients can live anywhere: you get weekly workouts in the Form Fitness app plus video check-ins.

What certifications does Hannah have?

Hannah Pithers has been a certified personal trainer since 2009, and she's also a yoga instructor. She holds a B.S. in Kinesiology and ACE and NASM certifications. Learn more about Hannah
