I was fortunate to be working with the company when the lockdowns hit during the pandemic in 2020. The company efficiently adjusted to the restrictions by transitioning to Online Coaching. This sudden change from in-person, face-to-face training to a complete online format was a significant shift that came with a lot of learning.
I learnt that people can still achieve great, sometimes even better, results with online coaching alone. It got me questioning how this was even possible, how could they excel when I was not there to check their form or make sure they’re lifting at the right intensity? But then it hit me: it’s all about the coaching.
When you’re training face-to-face, it’s easy to focus solely on the workouts. But with online coaching, there’s a broader scope. Training with a personal trainer three times a week in person? That’s just scratching the surface, it’s roughly 5% of what it takes to reach your goals. Online coaching digs deeper, as it focuses on establishing the right habits that pave the way for sustainable results. It’s not just about the workout; it’s about cultivating a lifestyle that drives success.
After spending considerable time with the company, learning what I had to, and working with over 100 clients simultaneously and achieving impressive results, I realised it was time to venture out on my own again. I was determined to create a new business that I would be proud of, one that truly reflected my vision and values. And thus, Elysium Coaching was born in 2022.
I founded Elysium Coaching because it encompasses all my passions ranging from Ancient Greek and Roman History, my personal religious beliefs, to both old school and modern-day science training methods. These elements are integrated into a comprehensive service aimed at providing you with the essential support, coaching, and knowledge necessary to help you achieve your desired results. This is why we offer both the Online Coaching and the Hybrid Coaching Model; it allows you to access the benefits of either approach. Whether you prefer the convenience of being coached solely online or a combination of online and in-person coaching, we have you covered.
Here, failure is simply not an option. As we always say here at Elysium: “No Excuses, Just Solutions.”
