Let 2014 be your strongest and healthiest year! Tanja Djelevic, health coach and personal trainer, will share their best exercise that raises your motivation.
Tanja left Sweden and traveled to Los Angeles to finish her psychology studies. Several years later, she works instead as a health coach and personal trainer. She has written training books, trained some of Hollywood's hottest celebrities and coached the Swedish Biggest Loser participants. "Exercise, dance and movement has always been in my life ever since I was very little., I did not think it was going to be my job, but I'm glad it happened," says Tanja. Training is first and foremost a form of therapy for me! I move every day which makes me feel good, feel strong and healthy. Also, I can help others to become strong and stay healthy. Right now there is a strong health trend, training and living healthy is now a given. "I think it's trendy because we actually are becoming sicker than ever. It's like a pendulum effect but hopefully we will be able to get into good balance," explains Tania.

Many have training as their New Year's resolution, how can they boost the motivation to really get started with training in January?
- I think it's important to realize that an investment in their health requires more than the motivation for the new year. It requires a dedication that extends beyond the end of January. You need support, new information, and a guide. The key may actually be to start walking AWAY New Year promises, and start making a full year commitment.
