We’re genuinely fizzing about this one.
Not because it’s “the next big thing”… But because it’s everything we actually rate — pulled together into one place.
The kind of training we come back to. The kind that works when life is busy. The kind our members stick to.
8 Weeks. Strength. Fitness. Consistency. Register now and get ready to start on Monday 27 April
Built for busy women 35+
We know what it’s like — work, kids, life, energy dips, zero spare time.
So we didn’t create something complicated. We created something you can actually do.
Structured. Realistic. Repeatable.
The Ultimate Programme
We’ve built this using:
- The latest research (especially for women 35+)
- The training we personally love and use
- What we’ve seen work best inside DediKate
- Feedback from our community
If we didn’t rate it — it didn’t make the cut.
Two planners. One goal.
You choose what suits your life right now:
🔥 Ultimate Planner For those ready to lean in and push themselves
🌱 Beginner Planner For building consistency, confidence, and strength at your pace
Both are designed to meet you where you’re at and have Peri to Post Menopause option built in!
Proudly supported by Merrell
We’ve teamed up with Merrell Shoes for this one 🙌
👉 A pair of Merrells up for grabs every single week of the challenge
(Yes… every week 👀)
"We built this because we wanted it too. </br>Simple as that. </br>And we can’t wait to do it alongside you!"

Rosie Hollands
"I have been a DediKate member for years, with different levels of commitment as time has gone on, but I love that I continue to get motivational emails and challenges to uplift me when I am in a funk. We had a miscarriage in May and it hit us hard mentally. I am looking forward DediKate being my reset, for new habits, and for reconnecting with likeminded people, and to fall back in love with myself."
