The Wonder Women

The Wonder Women

The Wonder Women group is the vision of transformation coach Michelle MacDonald. In her decade of coaching in the fitness industry it became apparent that there was a gap between how female physique athletes were coached versus how lifestyle clients were coached. This was especially seen for women in the over 40 category. Michelle works with lifestyle clients in a very similar manner as her athletes. They learn how to follow macro-based nutrition plans, they learn how to improve form in the gym, and use progressive overload to achieve incredible results, and they use a variety of cardio techniques to help drive progress. There is no ‘dumbing-down’ of any of the tools to create physique change. The assumption is that a 40-year old woman is just as capable of mastering a few simple methodologies as an athlete, and she can achieve incredible success with transforming her body, and along with it, her mindset.

    You guys need to add recipes for people that CAN’T have dairy. Using cow milk is easy.

    Coach Michelle, when we're at the bottom of the movement with the bar at mid shin, how do you suggest we come back up? Do we use our feet to drive the bar up as in a deadlift?

    You would need to reach out individuals and ask them for their username, and that search for them in the app, send a request to follow, and then follow. :)

    You might need to mobilize the shoulders first - numbness sounds like a nerve is getting pinched.

    Hi Moon Drop, it will depend on the severity of your herniation and what your symptoms are. We highly recommend that you work with a physical therapist to work with you on this one .

    You would put all of the ingredients in the recipe builder and weigh the whole recipe. From there MM+ will be able to track the nutrition per gram
