For the best possible experience, a DEXA scan is highly recommended as it reports on the variables that matter most for our purposes, such as ALMI, VAT, & BMD (which you'll learn all about soon), alternative methods do not. 

But in case you have no way of acquiring a DEXA scan (due to location or other reasons), alternatives such as Fit3D/Styku-scans, skinfold-callipers, or SPREN-images can be used as proxies.

Regardless, we will send you a DEXA-scan guide (here, download it now) to help you locate a facility, make an appointment, & do your scan during the onboarding-phase. Again, if none are available, we'll help you with alternative tests also.

A single DEXA-scan will cost you approx. $100 USD (subsequent scans become less), depending on your location. And no, it's NOT included in your LRA.

Whether you want a once-off plan (to follow on your own), like Jelena's LRA, or you need continuous behavioural support (compliance with a plan), like Jelena's 3-month coaching program, both paths start with an assessment. 

In fact, the best assessments are those that are able to determine the precise behavioural needs of the individual, based on both their body composition status & lifestyle conditions, which dictates the type & extent of coaching they may or may not need.

In short, we will discuss your coaching needs, if any, as well as the coaching options available during your coaching session & follow-up email.

In total, an LRA is an 8 hr service that can be rendered over as little as 2-3 days, depending on how long it takes you to complete step-1, the onboarding-phase. 

Assuming you already have your DEXA scan report, the onboarding phase should take you no longer than 1-2 hrs to complete. 

It takes us roughly 3-5 hours (over 1-2 days) to design your personalised lifestyle plan based on the data you shared during the onboarding-phase. 

Once both the onboarding & planning phase have been completed (4-7 hrs), you will be able to schedule & attend the last phase of your LRA, your 1:1 integration coaching-call (90 min) with Jelena herself.

"Longevity Recomp" refers to the change in body composition that correlates most closely to a person's longevity. 

It is the body composition (fraction of muscle, bone, and fat mass) profile that best facilitates and supports one's health (cardiovascular and metabolic), functional ability (fitness), and body shape (aesthetics).

It looks different for everyone, but the stages of "longevity recomp" development are the same: 

1) Losing excess fat while;
2) Restoring mobility and flexibility
3) Rebuilding muscle, strength, and muscular endurance
4) Laying an aerobic and anaerobic foundation
5) Practicing physical skills

This is very different than merely losing weight for its own sake. Weight loss independent of the above 2-5 integrated stages leads to losses in not just fat but also muscle mass (and with it muscle function).

The 10X Certification is a 4-month, group-based, DIY-course focused primarily on mastering efficient training-methods for rapid strength/muscle development. 

An LRA is an immediate, 1:1, done-for-you service focused primarily on mastering efficient nutritional, fasting, & training (including but not limited to 10X) methods for rapid, lasting fat-loss. 

As you can see, an online-course isn't really comparable to a 1:1 service.

It is therefore not uncommon for 10X graduates to do an LRA to help them tweak their body-fat values to more desirable levels (below 20% for females & 15% for males).
