Lisa Oldach – The Exercise Coach

Get to Know Lisa

  How would you describe the modality that would be your main service to  others? 
 

1. Strength‑Based, Time‑Efficient Training

Our core modality centers on high‑intensity, low‑duration strength training designed to deliver maximum results in minimal time. We guide clients through 20‑minute, science‑based workouts that build strength, improve metabolism, and support long‑term health.

2. Personalized, Data‑Driven Coaching

We don’t just count reps—we tailor every session using real‑time feedback, controlled movements, and precise form coaching. Our approach is grounded in measurable progress, safety, and efficiency.

3. Supportive Accountability

Our modality includes consistent one‑on‑one coaching, helping clients stay committed, confident, and focused. We provide structure, encouragement, and clear goals so they always know they’re moving forward.

4. Safe, Joint‑Friendly Training

Our method emphasizes slow, controlled resistance training that reduces injury risk while maximizing muscle engagement. It’s ideal for beginners, busy professionals, and anyone who wants results without high‑impact workpouts.

     When did you first feel the desire to share this with people?

I’ve always been a strong advocate for nurturing a healthy mind, body, and spirit. But as I got older, I realized high‑impact aerobic workouts were no longer sustainable for me. I also never felt comfortable in the traditional gym environment, and strength training seemed especially intimidating. That’s when it became clear to me that many aging adults face the same barriers — and that there’s a real need for safe, approachable strength‑training options that don’t feel overwhelming.

      Who would you consider to be your greatest teachers?

My greatest teachers span both the generations before me and the generation after me. My parents, who came before me, taught me invaluable lessons—kindness, a strong work ethic, meaningful values, and the importance of tradition. Understanding where you come from is essential, not only for grounding yourself but also for passing that knowledge forward.

The teacher from the generation after me is my son. Parenthood has taught me the tremendous responsibility that comes from knowing a child is watching and learning from your every move. It inspires you to walk a better path and to model the qualities you hope to pass on. And with the rapid pace of technological change, the next generation brings its own wealth of knowledge, offering new perspectives that continue to teach me every day.



      What would you like to be doing in 5 years regarding your work?

In five years, I hope to be retired from my full‑time job and fully devoted to growing the business. This work brings me the greatest sense of joy and purpose. Helping people reduce their reliance on medication, regain their daily functional abilities, and achieve their personal goals is incredibly rewarding.


      If you would be able to have a conversation with 3 people, living or not, who would that be and why?

I would love to meet my mother’s parents and brother. They passed away before I was born, but the stories my mother and aunt shared about them were so warm that I’ve always felt a deep connection. Sitting with them, hearing their voices, and experiencing the personalities behind those cherished stories would be incredibly meaningful.

My second‑grade teacher. She was extremely kind. When she was transferred in the middle of the school year, I remember crying so hard at the thought of her leaving. She lifted me onto her lap and comforted me until I finally stopped. By the time I tracked her down as an adult, she had already passed away. I wish I could tell her how deeply that simple act of kindness stayed with me.

Abraham Lincoln is another person I would choose to meet. He struck me as an extraordinarily intelligent and compassionate leader. I would love to ask whether he truly understood the magnitude of his impact on the world, or if he simply felt the immense weight of responsibility he carried during such a turbulent time in history.
