Evidence-based Physical Therapy and Pilates for women 40+ who want to lift, hike, and move with confidence for decades.

The Glutes Lab

The Glutes Lab-Live Online (PILOT WORKSHOP)

Build stronger glutes, reduce pain, and leave with a personalized 90‑minute training plan.

LIVE Online Workshop with Holly Chiodo, PT
April 23 | 11:00–12:30 PM MT (Zoom)

With over 20 years of experience in Physical Therapy, Pilates, and movement training, Holly specializes in helping people move better, reduce pain, and build strength that supports real life.

This workshop brings together clinical insight and practical application—so you leave not just informed, but with a plan for YOUR body.

If your back gets tight, your knees feel it, or you’re not sure your glutes are actually working… this is for you.

Most people are told to “strengthen their glutes”,
but they’re never shown how to actually feel them, use them, or integrate them into real movement.

So the body compensates:

The low back overworks

The knees take on more load

Movement feels unstable or disconnected

👉 In this workshop, you’ll learn how to change that.

I’m opening a limited pilot group for The Glutes Lab before expanding this workshop in June.

Walk away knowing exactly how to activate and strengthen your glutes—for real life, not just workouts.

Designed for women 40+ who want stronger hips, better balance, and confident, pain-free movement, with expert guidance.

you're so welcome here

I help women 40+ rebuild their movement foundation so their knees, spine, and balance stay protected—on the trail, on the court, and in everyday life.

Midlife brings change, but it also brings opportunity.

Did you know?

👉 Adults begin losing 3–5% of muscle mass per decade after age 30! (1)

The good news is that targeted strength training can reverse much of this loss.

Building muscle improves joint stability, posture, and everyday movement.

Inside The Glutes Lab, we focus on strengthening the glutes + core—the muscles that protect your knees and spine and create a stable foundation for movement.

👉Muscle strength can decline by about 10% per decade without training starting in your 50's! (2)

When your training matches what your body needs in midlife, consistency becomes easier — and consistency builds real-life confidence.

Regaining strength at your current baseline means:

• stairs feel easier
• hills feel doable
• long walks feel enjoyable again

Your Movement Age™ Report shows exactly where you're losing strength + balance and helps guide the plan we build inside The Glutes Lab and your follow-up training.


👉
Strategic strength and balance training can reduce fall risk by up to 40% (3).

Better balance means fewer stumbles and more freedom to do what you love.

Private sessions guide you through a step-by-step strength-and-balance plan so your results compound month after month.

Hey, I’m Holly,

physical therapist & pilates teacher

As a physical therapist with over 22 years of experience and a master Pilates instructor, I help women 40+ rebuild the strength and stability that protect the knees, spine, and balance for decades to come.

I help you identify the root cause of pain—not just where it hurts—so you can move with confidence again. Whether your goal is hiking, lifting, traveling, or simply staying strong and independent, we focus on building the strength and movement capacity that supports an active life.

Care may include dry needling, hands-on manual therapy, and Pilates-based movement retraining to create lasting change. Each session is a focused, one-hour visit with reassessment built in, allowing us to track progress in real time and prioritize the strategies that deliver both pain relief and long-term performance.

If you’re new here, start with Your Movement Age™ Report, a simple assessment that reveals how your strength, balance, and mobility compare to age-based norms and where to focus your training next.

You can also start with The Glutes Lab, a reformer-based intensive designed to restore hip strength and core control, or choose a Private Session Package for personalized guidance and faster progress.

I am excited to work with you!

XX, Holly
