Coach Gergo was amazing! He answered every question I had, he was always available and encouraging. He made the sessions not just about working out but personalized it and got to know me more than just surface level. Workouts were easy to follow and were adjusted appropriately as needed. The meal plans were nutritious. Coaching sessions were always fun and informative. Great experience with a great coach!

Coach Arman with The Vegan Gym is the best!
I enjoyed working with Coach Arman during my time at The Vegan Gym. He provided valuable guidance and insight, as well as structured workout and meal plans from their registered dietitian. He answered any questions I had quickly and offered an abundance of support, especially when I struggled with focus, life, or injury. One feature I liked was that their online groups were divided into teams, allowing space to build spirit and camaraderie with other members worldwide with a bit of competition between teams! The Vegan Gym is an excellent investment if you want a community of like-minded people who live a vegan lifestyle and want to improve their health!

I can't recommend the Vegan Gym enough!
I can't recommend the Vegan Gym enough! From the start, the intake process was thorough, addressing all my questions and helping me set clear fitness goals. I was promptly matched with an amazing coach (shout out to coach Chiara) who understood my past struggles and helped fine-tune my objectives- to lose fat and gain lean muscle as a 55-year-old woman. She designed a personalized nutrition and strength training program that was perfect for me.
In just over a month and a half, not only have I lost almost 10 pounds, but I've also seen reductions in my body measurements and I'm lifting heavier than I ever thought possible. As a newcomer to veganism, Chiara has helped me to increase plant protein into my meal plan, introducing me the range of protein options available on a plant-based diet. She has taught me the importance of caloric deficits and hitting protein macros for shedding fat and increasing strength. Her support feels incredibly close, despite the physical distance, always available to answer any gym-related questions or to provide immediate feedback on my form. Our daily check-ins and weekly calls are invaluable, providing new insights, knowledge, and a renewed commitment to believe in myself and the program.
But the benefits don't stop at weight loss and strength gains. I've noticed remarkable improvements in my energy levels, emotional stability, and my eating habits— food cravings have vanished. I'm eating more in a day yet still losing weight! The improvements in my balance and posture are noticeable, and my confidence has soared, proving that with clear goals, a personalized plan, coaching, accountability and commitment, anything is possible.
I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals on a plant-based diet. Trust the process, and you'll see amazing results!

Thank you Stephanie, your words mean the world to me! You are truly a force to be reckoned with. From the very first day, you showed up with such positivity, curiosity, and passion to learn, it’s been incredible to witness.
I’ve loved every moment of our journey so far. Watching you excel in your lifts, successfully meal-prep every single week, and even seeing your excitement when you discovered seitan and TVP, it’s all been so rewarding. Our check-ins and calls always fill my week with so much positive energy, and I’m so inspired by your dedication.
Your recent breakthrough was such a powerful moment, and I’m confident this is just the beginning of an amazing journey of success for you. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience: it’s going to inspire so many women to take action and transform their lives, just like you have!

"The 1% Difference: A Life-Changing Coach"
Working with Coach Lukasz has been a game-changer for me! He helped me track my food to better understand my nutrition goals and guided me through micro workouts tailored to my injury, busy schedule, and even the days when I was feeling down. On those tough days when I couldn’t get off the couch, his advice to focus on being just 1% better was exactly what I needed.
Thanks to his support, I’ve lost weight and gained confidence. He also taught me how to positively communicate my meal changes to family and friends, which has removed so much stress from social gatherings. Navigating big events like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's felt manageable for the first time because of his guidance.
Coach Lukasz is truly in my corner, cheering me on every step of the way. Despite being in London while I’m in the Midwest, his daily check-ins make him feel like he’s right there with me. He shares inspiring vegan meals and workouts on the VSA page, and he’s always leading by example—whether he’s walking on his treadmill or holding a wall squat during coaching calls.
He leads with kindness, compassion, and grace, meeting you where you are while motivating you to improve, 1% at a time. I finally feel like I have someone on my side, and I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you, Coach Lukasz.

Outstanding Support and Resources
I can't begin to list all of the positive things the Vegan Superhero Academy and particularly my coach James provides. The knowledge, resources and support provided through the academy are comprehensive and outstanding. James is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and supportive and took the time to understand my goals, lifestyle and any limitations I had. He personalized a plan for me that was challenging but achievable, and is always there to offer encouragement, answer questions, and adjust the plan as needed.
James not only helped me lose weight and gain muscle, but also taught me valuable skills in nutrition and meal planning. As a result I have increased my energy levels significantly and feel confident in making healthy choices and maintaining a sustainable fitness routine. Through his positive, motivating and encouraging demeanor, I was about to transform myself in ways that I didn't think possible.
If you are looking for a support system that truly cares about your well-being and will empower you to reach your health goals while increasing your energy and strength through a vegan lifestyle, I highly recommend the Vegan Superhero Academy. They are definitely top notch in providing science based approaches coupled with amazing coaching support to transform your health.

I invested in my health
I invested in my health as a birthday present to myself. I joined VSA in late Sept 2024 – January 2025. I was already vegan and relatively active but wanted to lose a few pounds, change my body composition, and get stronger.
Coach Nathan was awesome! He was very knowledgeable, encouraging, and very responsive to the multitude of questions I had. He was always willing to accommodate workouts that would help me reach my goals as well as change my macros or provide information regarding nutritional questions I had. There was a time difference for us, but we were able to make it work.
VSA offers different things to help you achieve your goals; video modules, online community, weekly challenges to participate in.
They have multiple, live, video calls each week. Due to my work schedule, I wasn’t able to participate in those, however you can listen to the recordings at a time that’s convenient for you.
The online community aspect included in the program is a great feature for someone who likes the engagement. I do not have/use social media in my personal life, so this was something new to me and not something I felt I necessarily needed to encourage me.
I think the original meal plan provided to me was a way to get ideas on how to build meals/macros, but I didn’t make the meals exactly as written. I don’t think I really maximized on the meal plan part but if you ask, they will have their nutritionist change your meal plans for you.
I would not have achieved what I did without Coach Nathan. I lost body fat and inches, I learned how to navigate workouts even after a slight injury, and I am incorporating more intuitive eating into my daily meals.
I think VSA is a great option for someone to get started living a healthier, stronger, ethical life. I’m an avid believer of “you reap what you sow” – the more effort you put in, the more you’ll gain from this program.
After the initial 3-months, they offer additional, annual coaching options. I wasn’t able to continue at this time due to finances but am grateful for the knowledge I gained during my time in the program.

Cynthia, thank you so much for the kind words! It's bee a pleasure to get to know you and work together the past months, your transformation has been awesome. Not just physical, but how much you've learned nutrition-wise and pushing yourself more out of your comfort zone each time. It's great to see how quickly you picked everything up and how consistent you've been, I'm sure the knowledge you've gained will stay with you for the rest of your life! Keep up the hard work and remember to prioritise your protein all the best!
