About Sasha

I've run my own marketing and data agency for years, so I know how quickly health slips when business gets busy. Alongside that I train for extreme endurance goals.. That combination shaped Vantage. I'm not a personal trainer, I'm the director of your performance. I design your training, nutrition and recovery around your calendar, not the other way around. My background is in business administration, and I base my coaching on published research and tested practice.

Coaching Philosophy

Sustainable performance beats short bursts of motivation. I work with the Vantage System: movement, nutrition, recovery and mindset, because progress stalls when one pillar is ignored. Your plan has to fit a real entrepreneur's week, so we start with what's realistic and build from there. I'm evidence-informed and transparent about it: I tell you when something is backed by solid research and when it's a practical rule of thumb. Behavior beats willpower. Clear structure, honest feedback, measurable progress. Stronger. Sharper. Unbreakable.
