About STRONG & LEAN AFTER 50

The paid upgrade is the Strong & Lean Women's Club, which the listing describes as a nutrition, strength and accountability system for women in midlife.[1] Club members receive a personalised Smart Meal Plan with recipes, meal swaps and grocery lists, a 12-week dumbbell strength program with three scheduled workouts a week, weekly measurements and photo check-ins, a private monthly coaching call and a 12-week progress review.[1] The club's own page adds personalised macros, access to an app and one live group coaching call with Sheridan each month.[3] As of September 2026, the club's charter rate was $97 a month for the first 100 members, kept while the membership stays active, with a regular rate of $129 a month after that.[1][3]

Sheridan is the creator of Lean Body OS, a 6-week group program for midlife women with weekly group coaching on training, protein and mindset.[2] The method behind it, which Sheridan calls the Lean Body Operating System, combines protein-forward, low-glycemic nutrition, strength training, HIIT and mindset work.[4] The website also offers 1:1 coaching, and the YouTube channel covers peri-menopause and menopause for women 40+, with topics such as intermittent fasting and strength training.[2][5]

The club is a monthly membership that can be cancelled anytime, and its page states: "Results vary based on individual effort and adherence."[3]
