"I strengthened my relationship with my body and mind"
10X

"I strengthened my relationship with my body and mind"

My motivation for starting 10x was different from most coaches: my clientele is global leaders, whom I'm supporting as their thought partner. I wanted to guide them also in terms of their health management, as good health is a basis for fulfillment in any area of life. I wanted a qualification that would allow me to be practical, realistic, and efficient. I got much more out of 10x - not only do I now have the confidence and qualification to be a great health manager for my clients, but I also gained much more knowledge and realistic insight into my health. 

My 10x journey was bumpy. While I was initially already in the "healthy" category, my old injuries re-awakened. I had to take a break of 2 weeks just when I felt I was gaining momentum in my workouts. At that time, my doctors advised me I could never do any strength training again, which was not acceptable and disheartening at the same time. Jelena's openness to supporting me and her gentle push have solidified my persuasion and commitment not to give up. 
I strengthened my relationship with my body and mind. I learned to listen to my pain, experiment, and deal with consequences. I am continuing 10x, getting great results, and getting my physical wellness to the next level. 

My old injuries warn me when I push myself too hard and I now understand how to balance this delicate dance. While this journey wasn't straightforward, I would not change it, as it gave me more strength and an additional level of empathy for my clients that I can transform into powerful coaching of my clients, transforming their life from yet another angle. Thank you!

"I was motivated to keep up as I saw beginner gains within the first 4 weeks"

I'm 48 this year, I am a mum of two teenagers. I was not willing to try anything new on the exercise front. I can honestly say one year on, I have fewer hangups about my body (I've gained 6kg but it's a work in progress). I now understand and respect my body. I'm stronger, I have more energy, and...
