What is Strong As I Am?

This is not about pushing harder or chasing aesthetics.

It's about building a body that supports the life you want to live.

At Strong As I Am Collective, we believe strength isn't the destination. It's what allows us to keep saying yes to life.

Strong As I Am Collective was founded in Tucson by Josephine Tremblay with a vision of creating a more supportive and sustainable approach to strength training for women.

Our strength coaching is built around movement quality, appropriate loading, thoughtful progression, and individualized support that meets women where they are and helps them develop measurable strength over time.

Because strength for real life isn't about doing more.

It's about continuing to do what matters most.

Led by Josephine Tremblay, ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, Strength & Conditioning Specialist, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Nutrition Coach.

What Strength Can Look Like

“What can I say? Strong As I Am is an answer to prayer!

Josephine’s heart, care, & knowledge are all endless!  I love being able to ask as many questions as I need & see proper form in real time.

What started off as a birthday gift to myself, has become an amazing journey of encouragement & strength.  Shout out to this fearless coach who helped me overcome my lifting fear after breaking my finger years ago. I’ve gone from lifting only 5 lbs to over 43 lbs in just 6 months!  Here’s to lifting over 100 pounds as I run this beautiful race of faith. THANK YOU!”

— Kriste, Strong As I Am Client

Strength looks different for every woman. The goal is never to rush the process, but to build from where you are and discover what you're capable of.

This space is for you if you want to:

  • Build strength and physical capacity for real life

  • Train in a calm, supportive environment without pressure or intimidation

  • Be challenged thoughtfully, with coaching that meets you where you are

  • Improve movement quality, confidence, and resilience

  • Invest in your strength, health, and independence for the long term

Whether you're new to strength training, returning after time away, rebuilding after injury, or ready to take your training further, you don't have to arrive at a certain level to begin.

Support Beyond the Workout

“Working out with Josephine has been absolutely amazing.

Every session is thoughtfully designed, and her instructions are always clear and easy to follow. She brings so much passion, knowledge, and kindness into her training.

The workouts are challenging, but I always leave feeling strong, accomplished, and proud of myself. She even follows up with a text message sharing stretches to do later that day and the next, which shows how deeply she cares about her clients’ progress and recovery.

Her understanding of the female body and what it needs to train efficiently and safely is truly unparalleled. Finding her has been such a gift.”

— Lizz, Strong As I Am Client

Coaching doesn't end when the session does. How you recover, respond, and feel between sessions helps inform what we do next.
