About You Be Fit

Most women don’t come to midlife because they stopped caring about their health.

They come because what used to work suddenly doesn’t.

They’re doing “the right things.”
They’re staying active.
They’re trying to eat well.
They’re pushing themselves to be consistent.

And yet:

• Energy feels harder to access

• Recovery takes longer

• Stress hits differently

• Weight, sleep, and motivation feel unpredictable

That disconnect is frustrating — and often misunderstood.

At You Be Fit, we help women in midlife stop fighting their body and start understanding what it needs now.

This Isn’t About Doing Less

It’s About Doing Things Differently

Midlife isn’t a breakdown.
It’s a transition.

Hormones shift.
Stress tolerance changes.
Recovery works differently.
Your body communicates more clearly — and more insistently.

When you keep using strategies that worked in your 20s or 30s, it can feel like your body is resisting you.

It isn’t.

It’s asking for a different approach.

Our work is built around helping women interpret those signals — and respond in a way that rebuilds strength, energy, and confidence without extremes, punishment, or burnout.

Who We Work With

We work primarily with women in midlife who:

• Feel tired of second-guessing their body

• Are frustrated by plans that stop working

• Want strength and energy without fear of injury

• Are done with all-or-nothing thinking

• Want guidance that adapts as their body changes

Many of our clients are capable, disciplined, and driven.
They don’t need more motivation.

They need clarity.

Our Approach

At You Be Fit, fitness isn’t about pushing harder.
It’s about paying attention.

Our approach combines:

• Strength training that supports longevity and recovery

• Nutrition guidance that fits real life and changing physiology

• Habit-based coaching that builds consistency without rigidity

• Ongoing support that evolves as your body does

This work is grounded in modern female physiology and informed by decades of coaching women through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

No extremes.
No rigid plans.
No pressure to override your body’s signals.

About Wallace Merriman

I’m Wallace Merriman, founder of You Be Fit.

For over 20 years, I’ve worked almost exclusively with women navigating physical change — particularly in midlife.

What I’ve seen again and again is this:
Women don’t fail in midlife.
Systems fail women.

My role is to help you understand what your body is communicating — and guide you toward a smarter, steadier path forward.

One built on trust instead of force.
Understanding instead of frustration.
Progress instead of punishment.

Where to Begin

If you’re new here, the best place to start is with clarity.

That’s why I created The RESET Starter Guide — a calm, practical introduction to understanding what’s changing in your body and where to focus first.

From there, we can explore whether one-on-one coaching or ongoing support is the right next step for you.

There’s no rush.
There’s no pressure.

Just a smarter way forward.
