Who is Jef Geys?

70 percent of people experience some kind of tiredness. Due to too much work, too many stimuli, overloaded schedules and day-to-day worries. By implementing the right advice at the right time, you can regain the energy you need to perform effectively.

No one is judged; we offer people insights into their biological workings and make them aware of their strategy for pursuing results and - thus - happiness. Health coach and ex-cyclist Jef Geys has developed a holistic method that analyses the body from a biochemical, physiological and genetic point of view. He coaches managers and companies via workshops, but also offers individual support. He is the founder of Primefit (2005) and RiseUp UAE (2020), which tests, advises and coaches people to become a better version of themselves in economic, social/familial and personal terms.

    Boost your energy levels like the Special Forces do

    Jef Geys trains the Special Forces for the federal police force. They come under great pressure, but are only human at the end of the day. Even the best trained athletes feel drained of energy sooner or later. That is why Jef teaches the Special Forces how they can unwind and recover. He has written a book about it, Rusten is het nieuwe sporten (resting is the new exercising). The insights he has gathered as former elite athlete, sports physiotherapist and coach apply equally well to companies and employees. During an interactive presentation, Jef gives your employees tips and tricks for boosting their energy levels. To create harmony between exercise and rest, so that people are brimming with confidence and can start each day with recharged batteries.

    Health and productivity in companies

    How can modern organisations give employees, who all have different needs, the tools to look after themselves in the interest of their health and productivity? Health and productivity go hand in hand. It is therefore very important for us to gain insights into how we can look after ourselves and improve our health.

    A lot of the health-related information we currently receive is based on someone's opinion, rather than the truth. It’s time for us to stop accepting general health advice as the truth. Many examples show that sport is not good for everyone, and can be so detrimental that it can lead to death in the worst cases. Because sport is a stressor that can actually be controlled, Jef Geys calls for a careful approach based on the knowledge of physical trainers. A tired body cannot be exercised.

     

Great speaker. Keeps your audience awake. Brings a very interesting story about stress and fatigue, that makes you aware of how your mind should interact with your body. A more than welcome topic in a changing professional context, where burn out and stress get higher on the agenda.
