About FiftyFitness
My name is Kate Rowen, personal trainer and founder of FiftyFitness. I was a late starter with exercise and am now, in my fifties, the strongest and fittest I’ve ever been. Like many of you, I have osteoarthritis and manage it by maintaining strength and mobility. I understand the struggles we face in middle age. I help over 50s improve their fitness to get more out of life now and take better health into older age, because I believe we can be over 50 and better than ever!

A unique value personal trainer
Care and concern for people drew me into nursing as a school leaver back in the 1980s. Curiosity and love of learning led me to science, eventually leading to a PhD in organic chemistry. Being a personal trainer is an extension of my career as an educator. For 15 years I was a university chemistry lecturer. These decades of learning and life experience make me a unique package as a personal trainer.
