No. AWC — Train includes both home and gym workout options, so you can choose the environment that works best for you.

Your strength programming and workout tracking are delivered through the Everfit app, making it easy to access your workouts, follow your program and track your progress. 

All educational and wellness resources are included within the Aligned Wellness Collective member area on the Functional Nature website. Depending on your membership level, you'll have access to resources covering training, recovery, nutrition, movement and other areas of wellness.

Train is designed for women who want expertly programmed strength training they can follow more independently.

Complete includes everything in Train, plus deeper wellness education, live coaching and opportunities to ask questions and better understand the bigger picture of your health.

Inner Circle is the highest level of support. It includes everything in Complete, plus individualized coaching, personalized check-ins, technique feedback and direct coaching support through Everfit. 

Train and Complete are monthly memberships. Inner Circle requires a minimum 6-month commitment. After the initial six months, Inner Circle continues month-to-month unless cancelled.

Once you join, you'll receive everything you need to get started. You'll have access to the Aligned Wellness Collective member area on the Functional Nature website, along with instructions for accessing your workouts through Everfit. Your access and resources will reflect the membership level you choose.

No, the live lab sessions are a nice accountability piece if you can make it work. But they are absolutely not a requirement for you to get full benefit of your programming. If you can’t make any of them, you still have the community to engage in to ask questions and get support.

To get started, just a selection of weights, some mini bands and perhaps some larger resistance bands. A pull up bar is handy, but not required. As you progress, you’ll find you’ll want access to more weights. 

Absolutely. AWC isn’t a menopause program. It’s designed to help women build the strength, capacity and understanding of their bodies that supports them through midlife and beyond.

If you haven’t reached perimenopause yet, it’s a great time to build muscle, bone strength and healthy habits for the decades ahead. And if you’re postmenopausal, maintaining muscle and bone, supporting metabolic and cardiovascular health, mobility and recovery becomes just as important.

Hormones are part of the conversation, but they’re not the whole story. You don’t need to be in a particular hormonal stage to benefit from AWC.
