  • The FLEX Method

    There are 4 phases to the program, each strategically building upon the other to get results and pave the way for lifelong success.

    The method focuses on three pillars: metabolic restoration, accelerating fat loss & seamlessly integrating sustainable lifestyle changes.

    F - Fuel

    L - Lose

    E - Emerge

    X - eXperienced

    FUEL: We begin by focusing on restoring your metabolism and hormones, and repairing the effects of any past dieting. We'll build foundations that you enjoy, prime your body to achieve your aesthetic goals, boost energy, curb stress, and more — you'll enjoy this stage!

    LOSE: Now that we have a working metabolism, our focus turns to shedding unwanted fat effectively. Here, we leverage what you've learned to optimise fat loss while enjoying your favourite foods, creating a balanced approach.

    EMERGE: Now that we've lost the unwanted fat, and have a healthy metabolism and working hormones we shift our attention to maintaining these earned results.

    Brace yourself — your wardrobe might need an update!

    eXPERIENCED: As you evolve into an experienced individual, we make sure you have all the tools and insights to confidently sustain your achievements. Your lifestyle and results are maintained, freeing you from the concerns about regaining weight and minimising your reliance on external guidance.

Creating a plan that works for you

My coaching philosophy…

is to empower you,

educate you,

bring out the best in you,

and set you on your own path…

where you are no longer depriving, condemning or sacrificing food groups (there's no "good or bad" foods here).

Together, we will create an amazing life-long transformation where you will love the person looking back in the mirror — inside and out.

What I'll need from you…

Your commitment and willingness to put the work in.

This may mean a few sacrifices in the short-term and if you're willing to give it your all, I'll be with you every step of the way!


Testimonials – what clients are saying…

  • This program was so much more personable than other nutrition protocols I’ve tried in the past. I have a whole new understanding of how to fuel my body and surprised that eating more can lead to fat loss. The tools I have gained from Maria are priceless.

    Tamara

  • You’ve educated me more in one night than I’ve had in years of yo-yoing around. I never realised the importance of fibre and I’m really shocked that such little and easy tweaks would make such an impact. Thank you so much.

    Taylah

  • I've become more educated about what my body needs to stay in its calmest state. This whole process has taught me to stick as close as I can to my macro targets, I've completely changed my mindset on how I fuel for a workout (pre & post), and that as long as I feel strong and powerful then that's my version of healthy.

    Debbie

“Are you done doubting yourself?

Success means change and change can be scary.
It is important you embrace the idea of success and ditch
any negative self-talk.

It's your turn to accomplish something BIG.
This program is designed to get you results. I am glad to be part of your journey!”
