The face of someone who just realised… SHE CAN DO A PULL UP 💪🏽
Your first pull up isn’t just one rep.
It’s weeks and months of building strength, practising the movement, working on technique, showing up on the days it feels hard… and then suddenly, one day, you’re over the bar.
Emma got her first one and we are so proud!
These are the moments we LOVE at VANA.
Not because everyone needs to be able to do a pull up… but because there’s something pretty special about doing something your past self couldn’t.

The best coaching isn’t about pushing harder.
It’s about paying attention.
Watching how someone moves. Adjusting their technique. Building confidence. Knowing when to challenge them and when to slow things down.
Because no two people walk into the gym with the same body, the same history or the same goals.
At VANA, every session is coached with the person in front of us in mind; not a one-size-fits-all programme.
Progress isn’t about lifting the heaviest weight.
It’s about moving better, feeling stronger and leaving with more confidence than when you walked in. 🧡

Carbs are a powerful tool.
But we understand, it isn’t a simple case of us telling you to just eat them.
You’ve had years of being told we should avoid carbs.
The Atkins Diet, Keto, low carb diets seem to always come around.
And some of them have their place in a fat loss phase.
But we see too many people avoiding carbohydrates year round.
Carbohydrates help drive performance.
Performance that makes you stronger, fitter.
Performance that makes you more capable, more confident.
If you start having carbohydrates and see a small bump in weight, it’s typically water being pulled in by the carbohydrates!
Use them near your training and let us know if you see a difference!
A fantastic core movement.
If you’re doing it right.
Looking back to our last shoot with the amazing
All the girls absolutely smashed the photoshoot and what’s even better is still seeing everyone of them in the gym getting stronger week in week out!
We should run it back shouldn’t we../

The biggest lever people don’t track.
People ask us how to train better, how to improve nutrition.
Nearly everyone forgets that sleep is where recovery happens.
Poor sleep?
Havoc with your hormones, recoverability lowered, hunger higher.
Not a good recipe!
Here’s some of our top tips to boost your sleep!
Good coaching isn’t about making exercises look complicated.
It’s about helping you understand why you’re doing them.
Every movement has a purpose.
Every cue is there to help you move better, feel stronger, and build confidence in your own body.
