Gus Vaz Tostes is a face that’s known to many on the London fitness scene. With his iconic long hair & handlebar moustache combo, he’s an inimitable individual both on and off the gym floor. But who is the person behind the Hyrox microphone?

We’re about to find out.

As a busy Londoner, I pride myself on being quick and productive, organising my life in little blocks on Google Calendar, getting stuff done at every living moment - be it on my commute, during meal times, and even in the queue for coffee. If there’s a lull in my day, I may as well get things done, right? 

It really has been a whirlwind of a summer. From London, to Crete, to Mallorca, we've travelled together, taken our fitness both to the gym and beyond, as well as taken great memories back home. We've loved getting to know you all and really hope you have too!

Here at MLA we are so excited to be bringing you our very first Fitness and Mindset retreat this April, in partnership with coach Tamara Akcay and Mindset RxD.

After receiving questions from the MLA community asking exactly what it will involve, I thought I’d put together a short post to explain why I think training fitness and mindset together is so important.
