BEYOND △ MOVEMENT by Markus Kneissl

BEYOND △ MOVEMENT is a system for conscious movement, body awareness, and bodyweight training to increase your energy, sharpen focus, and progressively build strength.

Yoga Therapist

I help ambitious professionals 40+ get strong, energized, and calm through holistic fitness → functional strength & mobility, the med method, and somatic stress release

I used to be a high-performer stuck in a low-performance body.

→ Back stiff.
→ Mind foggy.
→ Chest tight.

My friends would say, I was “fine.”
In practice, I was fraying.

That was me at 35.

One morning, I caught myself in the mirror. 
Slouched, hollow-eyed, barely breathing deep without discomfort.

I had success. I had money.
But I didn’t have myself.

That slow burnout nearly took it all.

So I made a choice: not just to heal my body, but to upgrade it.

For 8+ years, I immersed myself in:

→ Functional strength
→ Mindful mobility
→ Breathwork, somatics, nervous system regulation

Slowly, I rebuilt my energy, my resilience, and my presence.

Now, at 44, I feel sharper, calmer, and stronger than I did in my 20s.

And that’s what I help my clients unlock, too.

Here's an example…


A client, James, is a consultant constantly on the road.

Dinners with clients. Long flights. Stress stacking up. He thought fitness meant “go hard or go home,” but that approach left him drained.

We built him a plan using our LUC Framework for functional strength, Mediterranean-inspired nutrition swaps he could make anywhere in the world, and nervous system resets he could do in 10 minutes between calls.

Now he bikes and hikes with his kids on the weekends (something he thought was behind him).

Over the past decade I found…


Most people don’t need more discipline.

They need a system that integrates fitness, food, and stress regulation into their daily life.

That’s what I do. Together with Ketty.

We help ambitious, driven people build body-first holistic fitness & health so they can keep showing up strong, sharp, and steady → at work, at home, and in life.

Less stress.
More energy.
Deeper presence.
Sharper performance.


How we can work together:

1) 1:1 Coaching → personalized holistic fitness integration
2) Online Course → remove restrictions + get pain-free
3) Executive & Team Coaching → holistic fitness for performance-driven teams

If you think this is “wellness,” it’s not.
This is about building the body you need for the life you want.

A regulated nervous system.
Energy that lasts the whole day.
A body that feels free, strong, and reliable.

That’s your unfair advantage → in business, leadership, and life.

Let’s build your strongest, clearest, and most resilient self… from the body up.

— Markus

Markus Kneissl

You need strength + energy to thrive in business & life
But most people fail at strength training 
because they start at the wrong level.

They jump straight into workouts that 

Overload joints.
Skip fundamentals.
Mistake intensity for progress.

That’s why pain shows up before results.

Here’s a proven method I provide my clients with so they can start at a level that suits their muscles, joints, and nervous system:

The Progressive Strength Ladder

Step 1: Master form and control 
↪︎ slow tempo, bodyweight only

Step 2: Add stability 
↪︎use bands, elevate positions, build joint awareness

Step 3: Progress resistance gradually 
↪︎ not more weight, but better movement quality

Step 4: Integrate recovery
↪︎ mobility, breathwork, nervous system resets

And if you’re struggling to get started with strength training, this might be exactly what you need right now.

You still believe strength is just built in the gym?

It’s not.
It’s built in capacity.

Capacity to recover.
Capacity to move well.
Capacity to stay consistent.

This approach has helped our clients in their 40s, 50s, and 60s get stronger without flare-ups, joint pain, or burnout.

Start where you are.
Progress with precision.

Your body will thank you.
And so will your future self.

Move your body. Calm your mind. Thrive in life.
— Markus Kneissl

Lose 10kg without gaining them back

Is that possible? 

It is.
But not in a month.
Read the piece below for the math.

Helping ambitious people to feel confident, energized, and calm through Mediterranean inspired nutrition, movement, and stress management | Certified nutrition coach | Weight loss | Stress Eating

“Here’s how you lose 10 kg in 1 month”


You don’t.
Not in a healthy, repeatable way.

To lose 10 kg of fat you need roughly 77,000 kcal of deficit.
That’s about 2,500 kcal less. Every day. For a month.

For a knowledge worker who burns 2,000–2,600 kcal per day, that would mean:

➔ Living on almost no food
➔ Or training like an athlete on top of a full-time job
➔ Plus wrecked sleep, focus, mood, and hormones

Yes, the scale might drop fast.
But it probably will be mostly water and muscle.

Then comes the rebound. 
Often with interest.

Clinical guidelines are boring but honest:

0.5–1 kg per week, with a 500–750 kcal daily deficit, is the safe range.

This is what I coach instead:

1. Mediterranean-style, real food
2. Stable blood sugar
3. Habits that survive real life
   
Together with movement and stress management, teaming up with Markus Kneissl

You can absolutely lose 10 kg.

The smart move is 10 kg over 3-4 months, while feeling sharper at work and calmer in life.

But the real gain, is to learn how to keep it off, without giving up your job, your business, your life.

If you could prioritize one thing, speed or sustainability, which would you choose for weight loss?

P.S. Want to learn more about our program and approach, comment “Energy” and I’ll share more.

#holisticfitness #healthylifestyle #wellnesscoach

Success used to mean a corner office.

Now it means having the energy to enjoy your life after work.

For decades, ambition was defined by status.

The title.
The car.
The skyline view.

Today, it’s different.

Health is the new ambition.

Because…

What good is achievement if you’re too tired?

Too tired to exercise after work.
Too tired to play with your kids.
Too tired to live the life you built.

I work with executives who once lived the high-life.

Red-eye flights.
Endless meetings.
Little sleep.
“Reward dinners.” 

That blurred into exhaustion.

One client, a managing director in finance, told me, 

“I used to chase every deal like a bulldog the postman. Now I just want to wake up clear-headed, energized, and not feel like I’m 80 at 45.”

We built him back from the ground up:

→ Morning movement to get the engine started.
→ Mediterranean-style meals + a simple eating-out guide.
→ A 10-minute nervous system reset that replaces the 5th espresso.

Within eight weeks, he said:

"I finally feel human again, like my vitality and zest for life came back."

That’s the new ambition.

Not more hours
↪︎ but more presence.

Not more output,
↪︎ but more life in every moment.

And I feel every one of you who wants more energy. 
More vitality. And health that doesn’t suck.

That’s why…

We’re opening 3 private spots next week for executives ready to work directly with Ketty and me.

Comment RESET for early access.

Because I learned:

If you can’t enjoy the success you worked for…

It’s not success.

Move your body. Redefine success. Thrive in life.

A selfie of Markus Kneissl & Ketty Minissale from The Energy Lab at Pantalica, Sicily.

2016, I left a high-stress corporate role.

High pay, low peace.

I quit for my health, well-being, and freedom.

Traveled the world. 
Met Ketty. 
Built a new kind of life.

But soon I fell into the same old patterns,
just in new locations:

Working late. 
Chasing deadlines. 
Ignoring my body.

Running on caffeine + adrenaline.
Promising myself “I’ll rest later.”

Then COVID hit.
And I lost everything. 
Clients. Income. Direction.

That’s when Ketty and I asked: 

What if we built something that truly reflected the life we wanted to live?

Not just financially free.
But physically and emotionally free.

We designed our method around what saved us:

→ Movement that strengthens & restores.
→ Mediterranean-inspired nutrition that’s simple + practical.
→ Somatic practices that calm the nervous system.
→ Work that feels like flow, most days.
→ Structure that supports freedom.

Three years later, we’ve settled in Sicily (Ketty’s home region.)

Here life moves slower, meals matter, and calm is currency.

I love it here.

Now we help high achievers do the same:

Rebuild energy, strength, and clarity w/o extremes.

Because real success isn’t how much you earn.
It’s how deeply you live.

What’s your definition of success? 

I go first: Peace of body. Peace of mind. A life I love.

Move your body. Calm your mind. Thrive in life.

Dennis Berry

Epic Entrepreneurs

The #1 LinkedIn community & program for personal brand builders.

Founder & CEO

Dennis Berry Coaching

In 2000, I was a sales leader at Sysco Denver and noticed that my Regional Sales Managers had nice big offices and pictures of fishing and beaches on their wall.


▪️ I was making about $80k working 60 hours
▪️ They made $200k working only 30 hours
▪️ And, Sysco was a $30B company


I realized then that I if I was going to put in the blood, sweat and tears, I wanted beach pictures and to make more of the $30B.

So, my entrepreneurial adventures began.


Over the last 24 years I have been part of many business ventures including building and scaling 2 multimillion dollar businesses.


One was a rare coin and precious metals business which I scaled from $0 to $3M in ARR with 25% net profit margins in less than 18 months.


The second is my current coaching business which has taken many twists and turns over the last 20 years.


I started as an addiction recovery coach in coffee shops and shared office spaces, and has since evolved to a multi-revenue-stream operation.


In 2022, I realized that Linkedin is more than just a posting or job site so I did A LOT of research and decided to go all in on building my personal brand and audience here on this platform.


▪️ In February, 2023 I had 1500 followers
▪️ In April, 2024 I have 115,000 followers
▪️ I have over 100k newsletter subscribers
▪️ I run multiple business network groups
▪️ I live on the beach in Playa Del Carmen
▪️ I own a marketing/web dev. company
▪️ I increased my revenue by over 500%
▪️ I offer Linkedin Influencer coaching
▪️ I build Epic Brands and Businesses
▪️ I have a Business SKOOL group

If you're interested in learning how I did this, we can set up a call to see if 1-1 OR group coaching is a good fit for you to build/scale a stable profitable online business.

After building a $3M business the hard way (think 16-hour days and endless stress), I learned success shouldn't cost your soul. 

My journey started rough: a former ski racer turned chef, battling addiction by 15, and spending 15 years using substances to mask deeper struggles.

Getting sober led me to "safety" - a corporate job at Sysco making $80K. 

But trading 60-hour weeks for someone else's dream wasn't freedom. 

I built up the courage to quit and launched a rare coin business, scaling it to $3M in annual revenue with 25% profit margins in just 18 months. 

The money was good, but the cost was crushing.

16-hour days, constant stress, and fear about where the next lead would come from.

The wake-up call? 

Rolling my truck at 75mph after a night of heavy drinking. 

I survived, barely. 

That's when I knew something had to change.

Enter LinkedIn. 

While others chased leads through cold calls and expensive ads, I discovered what elite entrepreneurs already knew.

Personal branding is the ultimate client magnet. 

I transformed my approach, and everything shifted.

Within a year, I built a 150,000+ following and a 7-figure coaching business - all through organic LinkedIn growth. 

Now I work 4-hour days from Playa del Carmen, with a steady stream of inbound leads.

But here's what really lights me up: I've helped hundreds of others achieve the same transformation. 

The truth? LinkedIn isn't just a platform - it's a path to the freedom you've been chasing. 

If it could transform my life from rock bottom to abundance, imagine what it could do for you.

Love always,
D.

99% of people want the results.

1% are willing to do the work. 🔥 

Everyone talks about becoming the best in their industry.
 
Very few actually show up long enough to earn it.

Most people chase shortcuts.
 - They jump from strategy to strategy.
 - They quit when it gets slow.
 - They disappear when it stops feeling exciting.

But here’s the truth: 👇 
The 1% are not more talented.
They are simply more consistent.

These 5 habits separate contenders from pretenders:

1/ Show Up Every Day
 ↳ Even when you’re tired
 ↳ Even when it’s boring
 ↳ Success is boring before it becomes rewarding

2/ Stay Resilient When It Gets Hard
 ↳ Setbacks are not signs to stop
 ↳ They’re invitations to level up

3/ Be Relentlessly Persistent
 ↳ Keep going long after others tap out
 ↳ Momentum is built one ordinary day at a time

4/ Do What Others Avoid
 ↳ Hard conversations
 ↳ Hard decisions
 ↳ Hard responsibilities
 ↳ Master the tough stuff and you separate fast

5/ Keep Your Eyes on the Long Game
 ↳ No shortcuts
 ↳ No hacks
 ↳ Just disciplined reps that compound over years

If you want to be in the 1%…
Earn it.
Day after day.
When no one’s clapping.

Are you putting in the work to get the rewards?

#burnout #emotionalintelligence #leadership #focus #entrepreneurship

Neuroscience and Business Development Coach for High Performing Leaders with Burnout or Addictions. Turn Your Chaos into Clarity. CEO, Epic Entrepreneur Media. Founder, Elite Leaders Network.

Most people think success comes from grinding harder.

BUT, TRUE success starts with creativity.

Creativity is the spark behind every great idea, innovation, and breakthrough.

It’s not just painting, writing, or music 🎶 

It’s how you solve problems, lead people, and design your life.

It’s the ability to see connections others miss.
To trust your intuition when logic falls short.

When we lose touch with our creativity, we lose our flow.

We start living in our heads instead of from our hearts.
We trade curiosity for control.

And that’s when life starts to feel heavy and forced. 😢 

Flow isn’t something you chase...
It’s something you allow. 🧘 

It happens when you’re fully engaged, creating, learning, exploring.

When you stop performing and start expressing. 🎨 

Because when you tap into your creative energy, you stop chasing and start aligning.

- Your work feels lighter.
- Your relationships feel deeper.
- And life starts to flow through you, not at you.

Want inner peace?
Want real success?
Reconnect with what makes you come alive.
 
That’s where flow begins... and where freedom lives. ☮️ 

Are you tapping into your creativity?

PS. If you're looking for high level peer support from burnout or your next big business move, I created The Elite Leaders Network.

#burnout #emotionalintelligence #leadership #focus #entrepreneurship

Culture isn’t the beach pictures you have on the wall.

(All leaders and entrepreneurs take note!)

It’s how your employees feel on Sunday night about Monday morning.

If they feel dread? That’s culture.☹️
If they feel excitement? That’s culture too.😎

The best leaders know this.

And they build for it... on purpose.🔥


According to Forbes Magazine, 80% of employees feel dread on Sunday night.

Isn't that both a sad and staggering statistic!?!?!


Here are 5 underrated traits of great culture-builders:👇

✅ They keep promises (especially the small ones)
 ↳ Broken trust starts with missed follow-ups
 ↳ When you follow through, people feel valued
 ↳ Reliability is a culture signal

✅ They protect team energy
 ↳ Meetings have a purpose, or they don’t happen
 ↳ They fight burnout like it’s a real threat (because it is)
 ↳ A healthy culture has room to breathe

✅ They give credit loudly, and feedback privately
 ↳ Recognition in public builds pride
 ↳ Corrections in private build respect
 ↳ Nobody likes being shamed in a Slack thread

✅ They embrace conflict, with care
 ↳ Healthy disagreement makes teams smarter
 ↳ They don’t avoid tough conversations
 ↳ But they lead with empathy, not ego

✅ They make space for real life
 ↳ They don’t punish parents for school runs
 ↳ They understand mental health is health
 ↳ Flexibility is more than a policy, it’s a mindset

The truth:👇
 ↳ Culture isn’t what you say it is, it's how THEY feel!

Have you built a healthy culture❓

The first step is always the hardest.

Not the tenth.
Not the hundredth.
The first.
Why?

Because the first step requires courage you haven’t proven yet.

Most people wait for:
↳ Confidence
 ↳ Clarity
 ↳ A perfect plan
 ↳ The “right time”

But none of that shows up until after you move.

Here’s the truth:
Action creates confidence.
 Momentum creates clarity.
 Movement creates opportunity.

These 5 First Steps Matter More Than Perfect Plans:

1/ Start Before You Feel Ready
 ↳ Readiness is a feeling that arrives after you begin
 ↳ If you wait for it, you’ll wait forever

2/ Take One Simple Action
 ↳ Don’t build the whole staircase
 ↳ Just take one step you can’t talk yourself out of

3/ Let Imperfection Be Your Teacher
 ↳ You don’t learn by thinking, you learn by doing
 ↳ Mistakes are just proof you’re in motion

4/ Be Willing to Look New at Something
 ↳ You can’t master what you won’t try
 ↳ Every expert started as a beginner

5/ Keep the Promise You Make to Yourself
 ↳ Self-trust is built one kept promise at a time
 ↳ When you keep showing up, everything changes

Take that first step.
Even if your voice shakes.
 Even if your knees shake.
 Even if your mind tries to talk you out of it.

You'll look back one day
 and wonder why you waited so long.

Entrepreneurship… it’s not always about creating something brand new. 🚀

Sometimes the biggest wins come from improving what’s already broken or spotting an opportunity others overlook. 👀

Two entrepreneurs can look at the same industry…
One sees a dead end.
The other sees untapped potential.

The difference?
How they choose to approach the problem.

You can use your energy to:
❌ Chase ideas that don’t solve real problems
❌ Get stuck waiting for the “perfect” original concept
❌ Overlook obvious opportunities hiding in plain sight

This will keep you spinning in circles. 😔

OR…

You can focus on finding the cracks and turning them into strengths. 🔥
You can adapt what works, discard what doesn’t, and create value faster.

Here’s how to unlock opportunities without starting from scratch: 👇

1/ Spot the Friction Points
 ↳ Look for pain points customers constantly complain about.
 ↳ Problems are invitations for innovation.

2/ Study What’s Working Elsewhere
 ↳ Adapt proven ideas from other industries to your own.
 ↳ Fresh context creates fresh solutions.

3/ Improve on a Flawed Model
 ↳ If something already has demand, make it better, faster, or easier.
 ↳ Differentiation doesn’t always mean invention.

4/ Keep Asking “What’s Missing?”
 ↳ Even in crowded markets, there are gaps.
 ↳ Fill them with precision and care.

5/ Build with Agility
 ↳ Test, iterate, and refine.
 ↳ Small changes can create massive competitive edges
.
The truth?
You don’t need to reinvent the wheel to roll ahead of the pack.

What’s one broken model or hidden opportunity you could transform starting today❓

Authenticity has no competition.

(I wish I learned this when I was a kid)

Most people spend their lives trying (and failing) to win the game everyone else is playing. 😢 

But here’s the secret: 👇 
↳ You escape competition by playing a different game.

One that only you can win!  

When you find something that feels like play to you (but looks like work to others),
you’ve found your zone. 🎯 

↳ That’s your advantage.
↳ That’s your signal.
↳ That’s your edge.

Because when you’re in that flow state:👇 
✔️ Work feels effortless
✔️ Creativity skyrockets
✔️ You stop chasing and start creating

↳ No one can outwork you when you're being you.
↳ No one can copy your energy, your story, your style.

Anyone trying to compete is already behind.
Because there’s only one you.

The real flex ❓ 
Being so authentic there’s no room for comparison.
Just alignment!

Are you being authentic ❓

Most people think leadership is about being in charge.

High performers know better.

Leadership is about how you show up when it counts. 🔥 

And here’s the truth:
↳ There’s not just one way to lead, but the best leaders have one thing in common:
↳ They choose their style with intention. 🎯

Here are 9 leadership styles that show up again and again among high performers:👇 

✅ The Visionary
↳ They don’t just lead teams, they lead movements. 
↳ They make you feel the future before it arrives.

✅ The Coach
↳ Their superpower? 
↳ Spotting potential before you believe in it yourself.

✅ The Pacesetter
↳ They set the bar high and pull others up by being the standard. 
↳ They’re all-in, all the time.

✅ The Empath
↳ They read the room like a novel. 
↳ People follow them because they feel seen.

✅ The Quiet Leader
↳ They don’t need to raise their voice to make an impact. 
↳ Their calm presence is the loudest thing in the room.

✅ The Strategist
↳ They see patterns where others see chaos. 
↳ They play long games, and they win often.

✅ The Servant
↳ They put people first and lead by lifting others. 
↳ They earn loyalty without demanding it.

✅ The Transformer
↳ They don’t fear change... they thrive in it. 
↳ When the rules shift, they stay grounded.

✅ The Democrat
↳ They ask. They listen. 
↳ They build strong decisions through shared ownership.

Great leadership is situational.
But the mindset? That’s always intentional.

Which leadership style are you using?

No one is coming to regulate your emotions for you.

(We should really teach this in school.)

If you're waiting for someone else to:👇
 • Stay calm so you can too
 • De-escalate the tension
 • Say the right words first

You're giving away your power.

And when emotions run high?
That power matters most. 💪 

Here’s the truth: 👇
 ↳ But you can lead with presence.
 ↳ You can’t always control the pressure.
 ↳ EQ isn’t just a buzzword. It’s a toolset.

I’ve helped leaders navigate conflict, chaos, and high-stakes moments.

These 12 phrases help them stay grounded when it counts most: 👇

✔️ “Help me see this from your side.”
✔️ “I want to understand, not just react.”
✔️ “Let’s focus on solving, not shaming.”
✔️ “Let’s not make decisions in this state.”
✔️ “Let’s take a breath before we respond.”
✔️ “I can feel we’re both charged right now.”
✔️ “Can we pause and revisit this in 10 minutes?”
✔️ “Can I share what I’m feeling, without blame?”
✔️ “I don’t have all the answers, but I’m listening.”
✔️ “I’m willing to be wrong—let’s find what’s right.”
✔️ “What outcome would feel good for both of us?”
✔️ “We’re on the same team, even if it doesn’t feel like it.”

These aren’t magic bullets.
But they are anchors.

Because in moments of tension, clarity matters more than control. 🔥 

So ask yourself:

Do you want to win the argument…
or protect the relationship ❓
