Moving and strengthening our bodies

Hello! I’’m Traci.

I’m a retired public school teacher and principal turned ACE certified personal trainer and online fitness coach for women over 50.

I created Fitness With Traci to help women over 50 reach their strength and fitness goals and help them understand that they are not too old, too out of shape, or too busy to start their fitness journeys and become stronger, more active, and more fit versions of themselves.

As a woman over 50 myself, with a Women’s Coaching Specialist Certification and a Menopause Coaching Specialist Certification, I know and understand the experiences that affect our fitness and the decisions we make about our fitness.

However, fitness is for everyone. You can begin your fitness journey now.

Online coaching at Fitness With Traci focuses on strength training, movement, and proper nutrition to help you become stronger, active and fit.

Let’s find

Your Why.

I know that you’ve probably heard this before, but you truly need to find your WHY.

We know that physical activity is beneficial to our health. However, knowing is not enough. It’s important to dig deep to find your WHY. And when you find it, be true to it. Keep it at the forefront so that nothing gets in the way. Don’t compare yourself or your WHY to anyone else, just do you.

You’re worth it.

We all age and we can’t predict our life expectancy. However, being physically active increases life expectancy and improves quality of life. Strength training “helps maintain muscle mass, improve mobility, and increase the healthy years of life.”

I strength train because I love that feeling of power and strength that it gives me. I feel incredible after I finish working out.

Having strong muscles and bones provides me a greater chance of maintaining an independent lifestyle as I get older, and this is important not only for myself but also for my family. My family is a huge part of my why.

Women often tell me that they “just can’t get motivated.” When you find your true “why,” that will become your motivation.

I can help you find your WHY and achieve your goals. Ready? Let’s go!

What my clients are saying...

“I started with Traci in May. This was the best decision ever. I had a knee replacement the last day of January 2020. Covid arrived; everything shut down and my PT ended abruptly after just a few sessions. I worked on improving on my own during the pandemic but knew I needed more. Traci is a good listener. She understands what I can do and cannot and then provides the type of exercises I need to maintain my goals. She knows the limitations of injuries but does not allow them as excuses to give up and not push yourself. That is what I need. She is the best investment in myself that I could make.”
— Mary
“You keep it real and never set unachievable goals or expectations but you still push me. I stumble, you get me back on track. I’m getting stronger everyday. Consistency gets results.”
—J. Banks
“Traci Townsend has been an awesome coach for me. She is exceptional! Her overall vibe is great and I have had nothing but good experiences while working with her. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family… Traci is hands down, the best trainer I’ve ever had. Traci was committed and took an interest in me even though my fitness level was beginner. I really like how she gives me tips and to get the most out of every workout.”
—Kris
“Traci listened and helped clarify things I was struggling with and identity weak areas. I was given tools to succeed and confidence not to give up. "Begin where you are." "Don't have an all or nothing mentality." The IG posts and newsletter are an added bonus. The non-judgmental approach is what helps people realize results and feel like “I can do this."
—Lynda
“Thank you Traci for providing me with this unique and awesome experience.”
—Gail
“Completely met my needs. Traci's demonstration and explanation of the exercises including my trouble spots gave me the why behind each move - so helpful. The encouragement was more than I could have ever expected.”
—Michele
