Cam Wiggins Fitness

The kids are back in school.

For the first time since June, there are a few hours in your day that nobody else has claimed.

Summer was a lot. You made it work for everybody.

That time will fill up fast. Errands, appointments, all the things you pushed off since May. It always does.

So put yourself in it first.

For busy moms 40+ near Anaheim Hills, Yorba Linda, and Placentia, I'm running Back to School Strength through Monday, August 31.

We start with a 20-minute conversation so I can learn what you want to accomplish, what's been getting in the way, and what a realistic week could actually look like for you.

Then I build your plan around where you're starting.

For the next 28 days, you can train as often as your schedule allows in my small-group sessions.

You share the hour. You don't share the plan.

Here's what that's been like for one of my clients:

"I'm a busy mom of 5 with three being on the spectrum. I lacked energy and the ability to make time for myself to get healthy. I decided to give CWF a try because Cam was easy-going and made me feel comfortable getting back into the gym."

We train at 5741 E La Palma Ave in Anaheim, right off Imperial and La Palma, across from Keno's.

It's $179 for 28 days. One payment. It does not auto-renew, and it comes with my 28-day money-back guarantee.

I opened 5 new-client spots. 3 are still available.

Enrollment closes Monday, August 31.

Comment SCHOOL below and I'll send you the details.

You can be getting stronger, noticing your clothes fit differently, and still feel discouraged because the scale barely moved.

That’s one reason the scale can be so frustrating when you’re strength training.

Take a look at the picture.

Five pounds of fat and five pounds of muscle weigh exactly the same.

But muscle is denser, so it takes up less space.

That means your body can be changing even when the number on the scale changes more slowly than you expected.

If weight loss is one of your goals, the scale can still be useful.

Just don’t make it your only measure of progress.

Pay attention to things like:

* How your clothes fit
* Your waist and other measurements
* How much stronger you’re getting
* Whether stairs feel easier
* Whether groceries or luggage are easier to carry
* How easily you can get up from the floor
* How consistently you’ve been showing up
* How confident you feel in what your body can do

Especially after 50, progress isn’t only about becoming lighter.

It’s also about building and keeping the muscle and strength that help you stay capable in everyday life.

So if the scale hasn’t moved as much as you hoped, don’t let that one number erase the progress you can see and feel.

The scale gives you information.

It doesn’t get the final say.

What’s one sign of progress you’ve noticed besides the number on the scale?

A woman asked me last week why she should pay for coaching when the gym down the street is under $50 a month.

Fair question. Here's the honest math.

That $50 gets you a key card.

Nobody writes your plan. Nobody watches your knees when you squat. Nobody notices when you stop showing up.

Private training with a coach out in Orange County runs $60 to $100 a session. Twice a week, that's $480 to $800 a month. Most women I talk to aren't spending that.

50 Strong sits in the middle on purpose. Your own written plan, a coach in the room watching you do it, about $42 a session, because 2 to 6 women train at the same time.

You're not paying for equipment. You're paying for someone to pay attention.

If you're 50 or over and near Anaheim Hills, comment 50, and I'll send you the details plus two open times for a free Success Session.

If you’ve started exercising before and eventually stopped, you might be wondering:

“What makes me think this time will be any different?”

That’s a fair question.

Maybe you joined a gym before.

You went for a few weeks, life got busy, you missed some workouts, and before long you stopped going altogether.

Or maybe you tried following workouts on your own, but you were never completely sure which exercises were right for you or whether you were doing enough.

After a few experiences like that, it’s easy to start thinking the problem is you.

But one of my clients described something important about training here:

“He really takes the time to create workouts that are tailored to your fitness level.”

That matters because staying consistent gets a lot easier when you aren’t constantly trying to fit yourself into someone else’s workout.

At Cam Wiggins Fitness, you can train around other women without being expected to use the same exercises, weights, or starting point.

If something needs to be adjusted, we adjust it.

If you’re stronger than you were a few weeks ago, we build from there.

And if you have a rough week and miss a workout, you don’t have to come back feeling like you failed or need to start over.

Because consistency doesn’t mean having perfect weeks.

It means having a way to keep going when your weeks aren’t perfect.

And over time, those workouts are about much more than getting better at exercises.

They’re about building the strength to carry your groceries, climb stairs, travel, get up from the floor, and keep doing the things you want to be able to do for years to come.

If you’re a woman 50+ near Anaheim Hills, Yorba Linda, or Placentia and you’ve been thinking about getting stronger but aren’t sure where to begin, text STRONGER to (657) 315-6736.

I’ll ask you a couple of quick questions about what you’d like help with and send you the next step.

Missing one workout usually isn’t the real problem.

It’s what happens after.

When you’re training on your own, one missed session can turn into a missed week.

Then a few weeks.

Then, “I’ll start again when things calm down.”

At Cam Wiggins Fitness, the difference isn’t that life suddenly stops getting busy.

It’s that you don’t disappear when it does.

If you miss a session, I notice.

I check in.

We find another time that works, or we simply pick up where you left off.

That’s what accountability should feel like.

Not pressure.

Just having someone paying attention and helping you keep moving forward when work, family, appointments, travel, or an unexpected week gets in the way.

One of my clients, Cassie, put it this way:

“He holds you accountable and makes sure you’re getting your money’s worth and seeing results.”

And that matters because staying consistent isn’t really about checking workouts off a list.

It’s how you build strength you can use outside the gym.

Carrying groceries with more confidence.

Getting yourself up from the floor.

Traveling without worrying as much about what your body can handle.

Keeping up with the people and activities you enjoy.

That’s what 50 Strong is built around.

Strength for the life you want to keep living, with coaching that helps you stay consistent even when your week isn’t perfect.

If you’re a woman over 50 near Anaheim Hills, Yorba Linda, or Placentia and want to see what this kind of coaching feels like, reply SESSION.

I’ll send you two available times for a free strength session at my studio on La Palma Avenue in Anaheim.

You can meet me, see the space, try a coached workout, and see what a realistic starting point could look like for you.

If you’re over 50 and trying to lose fat, don’t make “burn more calories” the whole plan.

Cardio can help you burn calories.

A calorie deficit helps you lose fat.

But the scale isn’t the only thing that matters.

You also want to keep the muscle that helps you carry groceries, climb stairs, travel, get up from the floor, and feel strong in everyday life.

That’s where strength training comes in.

And you don’t need to already be strong or know exactly what to do before you start.

I start with where you are, adjust the exercises to what you can comfortably do, and help you build from there.

You’re not expected to keep up with anyone else or figure everything out on your own.

The goal isn’t just to weigh less.

It’s to lose fat while keeping as much muscle and strength as you can, so your body can keep up with the life you want to live.

If you’re a woman 50+ near Anaheim Hills, Yorba Linda, or Placentia and you want to lose fat while building strength for everyday life, comment “50” and I’ll send you the details on 50 Strong.

If you’re taking a GLP-1 and your appetite has dropped a lot, the number on the scale isn’t the only thing worth paying attention to.

Pay attention to what’s disappearing from your meals too.

Maybe you only make it halfway through lunch before you’re full.

Maybe dinner is a lot smaller than it used to be.

Or you look at the clock and realize you barely ate that day because you just weren’t hungry.

If weight loss has been frustrating for years, having less appetite can feel like a huge relief.

But when you’re eating less, you also have fewer chances during the day to get the nutrition your body still needs.

Protein.

Fruits and vegetables.

Fiber.

Vitamins and minerals.

And enough overall nutrition to help you stay active and strong.

A 2025 joint advisory from four leading organizations in lifestyle medicine, obesity medicine, and nutrition identified adequate protein, preventing nutrient deficiencies, and preserving muscle as important priorities while taking a GLP-1. (The Obesity Society)

And there’s one more thing I’d pay attention to:

Your strength.

If the weight is coming off, feeling weaker doesn’t need to be part of the deal.

The advisory specifically recommends adequate protein along with strength training to help preserve lean mass. (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)

That doesn’t mean you need to start obsessing over calories.

And it doesn’t automatically mean you need to fill a cabinet with supplements.

I’d start much simpler.

Think about what you ate yesterday.

Which meal changed the most?

Did lunch turn into just a few bites?

Did protein disappear from one or two meals?

Did you go most of the day without eating because you weren’t hungry?

Those answers can tell you a lot.

If your appetite has changed, your nutrition may need to become a little more intentional too.

And if you’re losing weight, protecting your strength deserves some attention as well.

If you’re a woman 50+ taking a GLP-1, I’m curious:

What’s been harder so far: eating enough, or making sure you’re not losing strength along with the weight?

What your first strength session at 55 should actually feel like.

Your first strength workout at 55 shouldn’t feel like a test to see how out of shape you are.

You shouldn’t walk out thinking:

“I barely survived that.”

You should walk out thinking:

“Okay. I can do this.”

A good first session should meet you where you are.

The exercises should fit what you can comfortably do right now.

If something doesn’t feel right, it should be adjusted.

And you should have a coach watching, making changes when needed, and showing you what to do instead of expecting you to figure everything out on your own.

You should feel challenged enough to start getting stronger without leaving the workout feeling defeated.

Because the goal isn’t just to finish workouts.

It’s to build strength for the life you want to keep living.

Stairs.

Groceries.

Travel.

Getting yourself up from the floor.

Feeling confident that your body can handle the things you want to keep doing.

That’s what 50 Strong is built around.

It’s a coached starting point for women over 50 who want to get stronger without being thrown into a workout and expected to keep up with everyone else.

You start where you are and build from there.

If you’re a woman 50+ near Anaheim Hills, Yorba Linda, or Placentia and you’ve been wondering what a realistic starting point would look like for you, comment “50.”

I’ll send you the details and explain how I help you figure out where to start based on your goals, concerns, and where you are right now.
