I started my journey with Manuel in September 2022, and it was one of the most positive and life-changing decisions I’ve ever made. I had always been very slim and struggled to gain weight and muscle mass. When I started working with Manuel, my main goal was to change my body composition, get stronger and build muscle. I had been training by myself for several months before, even following another coach’s program, but I didn’t see any significant results. In my first year with Manuel, we put together a plan with a calorie surplus and a 4-day-per-week gym routine. I went from 65 kg to 76 kg in around 10 months, most of it being muscle mass, as I kept quite a low body fat percentage. Manuel truly helped me understand the fundamentals of training and nutrition. Thanks to him, I learned how to perform exercises properly, what their purpose is, and how to approach nutrition to reach specific goals. In the last months, we’ve been working on new goals, and Manuel has always been very flexible and supportive in adapting our plan to fit my schedule and lifestyle. All the knowledge he shared with me and the habits I’ve built since then allow me to enjoy benefits that go far beyond fitness - they carry over into every area of my personal and professional life. I’ve never felt more confident or had as much physical and mental energy throughout the day, whether at work or in any other activity, as I do now. More than a coach, Manuel has become a friend throughout this journey.

Hey everyone! After having launched this community for 7 months now, I've identified a very clear problem. 🤓 Despite having access to: - 8-minute workouts - Instrument-Specific - You can do at home - Beginner friendly - No fancy equipment ...most of you still couldn't stick to it, not even for 21 days, let alone in the long run. And that really got me thinking in the last month on how I could solve this! 🤔 Because let’s be honest: you’ve done the first workouts. But by the second week, life got in the way… and you stopped. Not because you didn’t care. Not because you’re lazy. But because you’re still seeing training and music practice as two separate things. That’s the mistake! 💥 And it's exactly to help you fix it that I’m hosting a free live workshop, right here inside the community! 🗓️ Date: Sunday, April 27th 🕗 Time: 8PM CEST / 7PM WEST So, if you’ve tried the 21-Day Mini-Workout Challenge and struggled to stay consistent… This is for YOU! ✅ You’ll learn how to blend your workouts into your instrument routine ✅ You’ll learn why motivation and time aren’t the problem ✅ You’ll walk away with a strategy to make consistency feel natural, just like your music practice ⚠️ The workshop is free, but spots are limited. 👉 Comment “WORKSHOP” below to secure your seat.
