What if your performance now is only 80 percent of what you are capable of?

Hintsa coaches will often ask you: “What if your performance now is only 80 percent of what you are capable of?” To help you achieve your full potential, Hintsa uses a concept called the ‘Circle of Better Life’. A combination of general health, physical activity, nutrition, recovery, biomechanics and mental energy, it teaches that care and attention must be given to each one of these six components. At the centre of the model is Core, your inner motivation to reach sustainable change.

Hintsa’s ‘Circle of Better Life’ covers all key areas of health and wellbeing needed to enhance your performance.

As the world make small steps to reopen, it’s a good time to ensure we are all prepared to perform optimally within the new landscape, and Hintsa has put its expertise into helping you get ahead with a new set of digital tools.

The methodology started a long way from the current headquarters in Geneva, over 3,000 miles away when the late orthopaedic and trauma surgeon Aki Hintsa was working as a missionary doctor in Africa in the ’90s. It was in Ethiopia that he studied the training regimes of elite long-distance runners: noticing how they adopted an intuitively holistic attitude to health and wellbeing. He began to wonder how such an approach could be applied in a broader context and from there developed the Hintsa technique.
