Best investment I ever made so far
As I finished a 9 months journey at VSA, I want to tell you how grateful I am to had the chance of being part of this community. Every single one of us here is so unique, strong and inspiring. Just seeing each others’ consistency streaks, challenges, accountability posts, kindness challenges and more was just so nice. 👌🏼 Before VSA, I was feeling lonely in my lifestyle, happy but without the feeling of making a difference or anything, a WHY / US / BELONGING was missing. VSA made me realize how many great people are sharing my values, which gave me this feeling of belonging, of grinding not only for me, but for the whole group aiming at a common aim : helping the planet and the animals through fitness, and getting closer to our best self every single day. ⭐️ I will strongly miss the A Team and the whole community and sincerely hope we can stay in touch as « alumnis ». I already posted a deep review of my experience after 3 months, before extending my journey here, but if I had to sum up my most important learnings (out of sooo many) in 6 points : ⚡️ VSA is not just about reaching a high fitness and nutrition level for a few months , it’s about building a bullet proof mindset that is useful in any aspect of life. 💪🏼 Investing this money in myself has been the best investment of my life so far, and has paid 10x even before the end of my program. Thanks to the mindset and momentum I’ve built. 🙏🏽 Mindfulness is the foundation for long term success and happiness : learn to listen to your body and adapt fitness and nutrition accordingly (ie going easier when you know a muscle needs more recovery this time, adapt your training and intakes…) 🤓 The consistency streaks are fun and an amazing tool to build long term habits, the daily reading / audio listening and gratitude statement have become my new non negotiable. 👊🏽 COMMIT now and figure out later : this has also been a phenomenal approach I learned here : anytime we feel afraid by something but know within that it will make it better, we shall commit to do it with a deadline, and we figure out anyway to make it happen (can be in sport, personal project, at work etc…) ⭐️ Never forget that YOU ARE NOT ALONE, we are all making a difference workout after workout, meal after meal, day after day. We are challenging the status quo for the better, as a strong, kind and badass superhero army. Hope these few lines can help inspiring you to join, it will be the best investment you can ever make in yourself. ❤️ Thank you once again to Mark, all the coaches + staff, the A Team and each of you here for being such empathic and inspiring people 🙏🏽 Peace, love and (mainly mind) gaiiiins ☄️

Loic, Everything you brought to VSA was truly exceptional. Throughout your time here, you displayed an unwavering commitment to your health and fitness goals, and in doing so, inspired others to do the same - and I know that has continued beyond the academy as well. Not only did you master the principles of intuitive eating and nutrition, but also consistently demonstrated a willingness to push yourself to your physical limits in your training. You were always eager to learn how to get better and learn new skills and it was inspiring to be there alongside you and help you while you did so. Your dedication to self-improvement was truly contagious, and you motivated your teammates to strive for excellence in their own journeys towards better health. In addition to your impressive physical accomplishments, you also demonstrated a strong understanding of the psychological and emotional aspects of wellness. You consistently showed support for your fellow team members, offering words of encouragement and motivation when they needed it most. Overall, your performance in VSA was truly exceptional. You exemplified the ideals of dedication, hard work, and perseverance, and served as an inspiration to all those around you. You are a true superhero, man, and VSA cannot wait to have you back! With gratitude, Coach Mark
