Strength training for women 50+, at home or at the gym, with big text and a voice that counts the seconds. Just starting? Your first workout is short and seated.
Strength training made for women over 50 — through perimenopause, menopause and after. No equipment, no account, no jargon. At home or at the gym.
Vitalia requires a monthly or yearly subscription, with a free trial, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
MADE FOR THIS STAGE OF LIFE
Tell Vitalia what matters to you: a flatter belly, firmer arms, more energy, strong bones, better sleep, fewer aches, better balance, a healthy heart, fewer bladder leaks. Tell it where it hurts. Tell it what you train with — nothing, a few dumbbells, or a gym. The program is built from that, and it changes every week from how each workout felt.
YOU SAY WHERE YOU START
Just starting? Your first workout takes seven minutes, seated or holding a chair. Already training? You go straight into your own program: standing work, dumbbells or gym machines, at your level. On low-energy days, the seven-minute seated version is always there.
BIG TEXT, BIG BUTTONS, A VOICE THAT COUNTS
The workout player is designed to be put on the floor and read from two meters away, without glasses. One instruction, a photo of the exercise, a countdown you can see across the room, and a voice that counts the last seconds and announces what comes next. Put your own music on; the voice speaks over it.
IT HURTS? ONE BUTTON
During every exercise, a big « It hurts » button stops that exercise, moves on to the next one and remembers it. Knees, back, shoulders, hips, wrists, ankles, neck: every exercise that would strain a painful area is replaced.
WHAT THE PROGRAM CONTAINS
Over 160 exercises with photos, from chair stands to gym machines, each with a « why it matters after 50 » in two sentences. Warm-up, strength, balance from 60, a calm finish with slow breathing, and the pelvic floor when you ask for it. Two, three or four workouts a week, ten to thirty minutes. A recovery week every fourth week — planned, and said so.
EAT WITHOUT COUNTING
Twenty-five short articles on the body after 50: protein at every meal, calcium, vitamin D, fiber and the belly, sleep, the heart, the bones, hormones and what to ask your doctor. Each one ends with links to the scientific documents it draws on. No calories to count, ever.
HONEST ABOUT WHAT EXERCISE DOES
Strength work is what keeps muscle and bone after menopause, and this app is built on the published recommendations for it. It does not claim to reduce hot flashes — the evidence for that is not there — and it takes no side on hormone therapy. Where something is uncertain, it says so.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. Your weight, your pains and your journal never leave your iPhone. Workouts can be saved to Apple Health if you choose.
Vitalia is a fitness program, not medical advice. It does not diagnose, treat or cure anything. If you have a heart condition, diagnosed osteoporosis, a recent operation or a pain that worries you, show the program to your doctor before starting.
