Stronger at Any Age with Donna Medina – Exercise Physiologist & M.E.S.S. Method Creator

 

Ready to build strength, boost energy, and take control of your health—at any age?

I’m Donna Medina, a Board-Certified Exercise Physiologist, consultant, coach, and author of Stronger at Any Age. With over a decade of experience, I specialize in helping women improve their strength, mobility, and overall well-being through sustainable, science-backed fitness.

As the creator of the M.E.S.S. Method, I focus on the key pillars of Movement, Eating, Sleep, and Stress management to help you build lasting strength and confidence. My mission is simple: to give you the knowledge and tools to move better, feel better, and live stronger—at any stage of life.


Why Train with Donna Medina?

Fitness isn’t one-size-fits-all. I believe in meeting you where you are, creating a customized, approachable training experience that fosters consistency, confidence, and growth. With a background in behavioral change, I help clients build sustainable habits that strengthen both body and mind, setting the foundation for long-term success.

My Journey to Wellness

I started my wellness journey at 30, navigating my own health challenges. Those early experiences taught me that fitness is more than just exercise—it’s the key to living a strong, fulfilling life. Later, while working in the senior living industry, I witnessed firsthand how movement transforms the aging process. This inspired me to earn certifications in senior fitness and personal training, eventually leading me to open Gymnanigans in 2015. Today, my mission is to empower women of all ages to build lifelong strength and resilience.
