A former participant shared that "the Her Strength program is a good way to start going to the gym and make gym buddies. It helped me to become comfortable with exercises and the gym. Our trainer was lovely and patient with us throughout the program. I would recommend this program to anyone who doesn't know how to start their own gym journey."
