MEET THE FOUNDER
Hey, I'm Kristine!
As a former competitive swimmer and collegiate athlete who graduated from Willamette University in 2001, my passion for athletics has been a lifelong journey, evolving with each stage of my life.
Throughout my career, I’ve embraced coaching & training across various levels. I am also the creator of “Women on Weights,” a highly popular small-group training program that empowers women to build strength, confidence, and proper weightlifting techniques. It’s incredibly rewarding to witness transformations, such as a client over 70 increasing her bone mass by 7% in a single year.
In my 40s, I encountered my own physical challenges—more frequent injuries, reduced energy, and less resilience. A herniated L4-L5 disc in 2021 was a pivotal moment, prompting me to reevaluate my approach to fitness. I shifted my focus from high-volume workouts to prioritizing quality, incorporating strength training and functional movement. This personal transformation ignited my passion for helping other women navigate similar experiences. In 2024, I became a certified menopause coach, diving deeply into the science of nutrition, movement, and lifestyle strategies that enable women over 40 to thrive.
At KAC Training, I empower women navigating perimenopause and menopause to reclaim their energy, confidence, and vitality.
Via my virtual menopause coaching program, I am dedicated to guiding women toward their fullest potential. I believe that life after 40 is not an ending but a powerful new chapter, filled with opportunities for growth, fulfillment, and happiness. My mission is to help women embrace these years with strength and vitality, transforming challenges into opportunities for self-discovery and empowerment.
My coaching programs are highly personalized, offering tailored workouts, customized nutrition plans, and weekly check-ins to ensure progress and accountability. I’m available for daily messaging, providing consistent support and guidance. Together, we dive deep into hormone health, gut health, and cortisol regulation, uncovering the root causes of each individual’s struggles. By addressing these foundational issues, I create lifelong programs that empower women to live their best lives, full of energy, confidence, and joy.
My custom fitness programs are designed specifically for each woman, recognizing that no two journeys are the same. Whether you’re looking to build strength, increase flexibility, or boost endurance, I create a tailored plan that meets you where you are and evolves with you. Every workout is crafted to support hormone health, optimize metabolism, and fit seamlessly into your lifestyle, ensuring sustainable progress and long-term results.
Nutrition is just as vital to your journey as fitness, which is why my custom nutrition plans are tailored to your specific needs. With my unique Metabolic Nourishment Program, I focus on hormone-friendly, nutrient-dense foods that fuel your body and support metabolism. I provide practical, sustainable meal strategies that align with your lifestyle, helping you feel energized and empowered while promoting long-term health and balance.
All my programs are fully virtual, offering the convenience and flexibility to fit your schedule. With weekly Zoom sessions for guidance and accountability, plus access to a personalized app to track your workouts and nutrition, I ensure you have the tools and support you need to succeed—anytime, anywhere.
TESTIMONIALS
Kristine's most outstanding capability is that she meets everyone at their own level with whatever limitations they have and teaches them. She does this with sensitivity, kindness and encouragement. No judgments. And Kristine knows weights. I continue to work with her because she helps me improve my form and seek new challenges. I am fairly certain that there’s only one way to improve and maintain muscle mass as we age, and that’s through an ongoing weight program. Walking, yoga, swimming and pickleball are great, but they don’t add to muscle mass in a meaningful way. I’m proof that it’s never too late to get started.

I can’t thank Kristine enough for how much she helped me. At 47, I felt like my body was completely out of sync—my energy was low, I couldn’t manage my weight, and I just didn’t feel like myself. With her personalized fitness program and nutrition, everything has changed. I’ve regained strength I never thought I’d have again, and for the first time in years, my hormones feel balanced and my energy is back. The weekly Zoom calls and the app made it so easy to stay on track, and I always felt supported every step of the way.
