I dont want to leave but now I have tools to continue!
I have had a personal trainer before but this is so much different. I love VSA and everything it stands for. It changed my life. I'm a mom and wanted to take control of health, my thoughts, my actions and my weight. I lost 20 lbs and I am so much more confident. It's a commitment. And there are no shortcuts. But I would recommend VSA to anyone who is seriously ready to take control. Thank you to my coach Ashley, and Anders and Leif. Don't stop making the world a better place!!

What an amazing program.
Joining VSA was the scariest thing I've ever done and I mean that in the best way! I've never invested in myself quite like this. Here's a tiny back story, on my own I managed to adopt a healthy vegan lifestyle and lose 120lbs over the course of 2 years and I maintained that for a little over 3 years. Super awesome, I know. However, I never had much muscle gain throughout that process and this is where my VSA experience comes in. I was very apprehensive at first, I'm someone who thinks she can accomplish everything on her own, but I made the commitment and trusted the amazing coaches. After my 90 day program I developed muscle that I didn't know I could have, learned that I CAN EAT A LOT MORE THAN I WAS PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT. 600 MORE CALORIES DAILY. Even with that calorie increase, i lost weight, gained muscle and feel better than I have ever before. That alone should tell you that these guys know what they're talking about, you have to trust the process even if it seems bizarre to you. You'll come out knowing more than you did before. 10/10 would recommend for everyone. (I could've went on and on about every beautiful aspect of this program but I'll keep it short and have you find out for yourself)

Vegan Super Hero Academy is the best!
If I can get results from working out and eating healthy in the middle of a global pandemic with a bedsheet, then so can you!
This program has helped me very very very much and has definitely changed my life for the better! Not only to lose weight and gain muscle, but to gain confidence and remain consistent / overall be a lot healthier! It also gave me a wonderful community support and as well as very kind coaches to support you! Not only are they professional and helpful, they're so very personable and it is very easy to talk to them. I am really shy, so doing weekly calls with them or chatting with them in general, I felt safe and confident to do so. It has helped me not feel so shy in a call because I usually hate speaking on the phone, but I don't mind or feel scared when talking to my coach! Also, I first started my journey in August of this year and currently when I was typing this, it is now November, I have lost 9 pounds, lost 7 inches off of my hips, 5 off of my waist, and am continuing to see the fat come off and replaced with muscles in all parts of my body! Before this program, I definitely did not think I would be able to lose weight or really gain any muscle. I would always gain and lose. Now starting to actually see results and have goals! I had not seen any before the program and would get discouraged and not stay consistent. Actually seeing results is really made me more confident and addicted to remaining consistent! Also, have legitimate specific goals really helps and keep you on track. As well as the weekly calls and weekly goal setting. Doing progress pictures once a week, daily weigh ins, and weekly measurements is to helpful as well and really shows results and keeps you motivated. Before the program if I didn't see the scale drop, I got sad and did not want to keep working out. But the scale isn't everything and you can really see results in the measurements and weigh ins. Just because you aren't seeing the scale drop does not mean you aren't losing fat and gaining muscle. Made me realize the scale isn't always everything. Also a major thing about this program, it is also nice to have other vegans to talk to as well because I do not know any vegans in real life. Also, you do not need any fancy equipment and you don't have to worry about not having a gym membership. I do not have any fancy equipment (just some dumbbells from Walmart) and I do not have a gym membership. I am working out at home with a bedsheet that I put on my door and do a workout. You can do any workout with a bed sheet! You name it, pull ups, hammer curls, etc. I really enjoy the bed sheets! I am seeing results from a bed sheet! There really is no excuse not to workout and stay healthy. The program made me look forward to doing exercise and I look forward to doing it everyday! I can work out in the middle of a global pandemic in the corner of my room, so can you! Also some other benefits of this program, is definitely the meal plan! There where meals in there, that I actually have never tried before, never thought of, or had not had in a while. It really made me enjoy cooking again and it really helped me increase my protein intake. I saw benefits right away with my hair. You can eat really healthy and eat pretty much whatever you want as long as you are hitting your macros! Overall I have a great experience and I am continuing for another three months! If you got to the end of this review, you definitely should give the program a try! Definitely worth the money and everything it offers!

My experience with the Vegan Gym has exactly why I was looking for...
My experience with the Vegan Gym has been exciting and exactly what I was looking for in a program. I had tried many things on my own and was only able to get so far. Their program helped push me to a new level and it’s with vegan nutrition. Yes, you can get plenty of protein on a vegan diet. Coach Ashley has been detrimental with my progress along with their training modules to help educate you to succeed beyond the program.
One of the best things about this program is that they literally cater it around what your goals are.
I highly recommend the Vegan Gym Academy to anyone looking to make positive, life lasting changes to yourself.

This program was life changing for me!
This program was life changing for me! I lost 40 pounds in 90 days while also gaining strength, and eating more food than I have ever ate while trying other forms of dieting in my past. Prior to joining the Vegan Super Hero Academy (VSA), I had just transitioned to eating a vegan diet but was really seeking guidance on obtaining the proper nutrition. This program has helped me immensely in changing my overall lifestyle. Everything was tailored to my specific goals. All of the my meals plans were created based on the foods that I really enjoy and all of the meals are so good! All of the coaches are AMAZING!! They are really there to support you and hold you accountable on a daily basis so that you will accomplish your goals! The lifetime Facebook community is filled with so many awesome people that have or are currently completing their VSA journey. The lifetime support, positive energy, and encouragement from like-minded individuals is priceless!
VSA has been the best investment I have made for myself. It transformed me physically and mentally and I will forever be grateful for this journey!

I lost 24 pounds using this program in 90 days!
What I liked was that as a vegan you don’t find much resources out there for the vegan to build muscle. There’s a bunch of weight loss programs, but finally this was tailored towards building muscle!
Leif and Anders are fantastic coaches and their staff. I got to know them on a personal basis, texting calling and face timing whenever I had questions, I don’t know how these guys had the time!
And the Vegan gym community is such a gem, because everybody’s energy in there is great and the trainers do live sessions to focus on technique nutrition and more.
I’d do the program again!

Life-Changing Program
Before I joined the Vegan Superhero Academy I had been attempting to shred on my own for about five months without much success. As someone who likes to do things on my own, I was feeling frustrated that I had been working so hard for so long without making much progress. I had followed Leif and Anders’ Vegan Gym podcast for a few years and decided to take the leap and start working with them. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I made more progress in the course of one month working with them than I did in the entire five months I was shredding on my own. Between the 1:1 support, entirely customized training and meal programs, online fitness/nutrition/life coaching videos, and the incredible community of like-minded vegans, the Vegan Superhero Academy is truly one of a kind. Midway through the program I switched from working out at home to going back to a gym and my coach was able to make the switch for me to provide an entirely gym-based training program within a day. You just don’t get that type of real time adjustments with cookie cutter online programs. The coaches are a group of the most genuine and helpful people you’ll meet - they take the time to get to know you as a person and are always there for you when you need that extra peptalk or positive voice in your ear. I cannot recommend the Vegan Superhero Academy enough, it will be the best investment you ever make in your body, your self, and your life.

Real change, for life
I had always been hesitant about coaching programs, but after seeing my wife go through VSA and experiencing such positive results, I knew I had to give it a shot. Leif & Anders have done an amazing job of not only creating a top-notch program but also nurturing an immensely supportive community, which you have full access to after sign-up. The biggest change for me was confidence. I always felt inadequate at the gym - unable to really push through, get the exercises done, and follow through consistently. With guidance from the coaches, I was able to break through that and not only set myself up for success during the program but also long after. Thank you VSA!
