Meet Suzike, the Woman Behind BySuzike
I am Suzike, a fitness reviewer, teacher, and mother over 40. BySuzike is where I share honest reviews of fitness classes, events, home gym workouts, and the products and tools I actually use, so you can make better decisions about how you move and train.
Everything I write comes from lived experience. The classes I take, the events I attend, the equipment I test, the days I push through, and the days my body says no. I write from inside the experience, not above it.
For years, I have been training consistently while managing a full life as a teacher and a solo mother. I know what it means to fit fitness around real responsibilities, to walk into a class not knowing what to expect, and to wish someone had just told you the truth about what it actually feels like.
That is why I created BySuzike. There is plenty of polished fitness content online. What is harder to find is a structured, honest account from someone who takes the classes as a student, pays attention to the details, and explains what another woman in her 40s might actually experience.
My background in teaching shapes how I write. I think in terms of clarity, structure, and usefulness. My experience as a mother keeps me honest about what realistic fitness looks like. And my years of consistent training give me something to compare everything against.
What You’ll Find Here
BySuzike covers five areas, all connected by one idea: real reviews from a real student perspective.
- Class reviews written session by session, with notes on intensity, instructor, how my body responded, and what a first-timer should know
- Fitness modality reviews that explain what each workout type actually feels like, who it suits, and what to expect before you commit to it
- Fitness event reviews from a student perspective, with honest notes on atmosphere, classes, and whether it is worth attending
- Home gym and outdoor training content for women who train outside the studio, including practical notes on equipment and simple routines
- Guides and essentials with recommendations for fitness tools, trackers, and products I have tested or use myself
BySuzike is practical first, personal where it matters, and always grounded in what actually happened.
A Little More About Me
I am Portuguese, I live in Lisbon, and I have been training consistently for years across group fitness classes, home sessions, and outdoor movement. I teach, I raise my daughter, and I fit fitness into a life that does not pause for it.
I care about clarity and honest experience more than polished fitness perfection. I protect my daughter’s privacy, so you will not find her at the centre of my content, but she is part of why I keep showing up.
If you are a woman over 40 looking for fitness insight that respects your intelligence and your real life, you are in the right place.
