Who is Zuzka Light?
Blog | August 21, 2018
Background:
Zuzka Light is a leading fitness personality, fostering millions of followers worldwide. She is also an author, movement and mobility specialist, certified holistic health & fitness coach, and a certified life coach.
Her career as a fitness expert began in 2008, when she co-founded the BodyRockTV brand and garnered a strong fan base across the globe. In doing so, she became one of the biggest influences in health and fitness, thanks to her unique style, voice, and personality. Many of her workout and travel videos became viral hits on YouTube, catching the attention of a Los Angeles-based production company.
Zuzka then moved to LA in 2012, where she was hired to shoot the ZCUT POWER CARDIO SERIES. It would prove to successfully become the #1 best-selling fitness DVD on Amazon.com in 2013. More than thirteen best-selling DVDs would soon follow, helping to convert her powerful explosive workouts into an accessible, comprehensive fitness program.
In 2014, Zuzka started her own production company- Zuzka Light Productions LLC-, followed by her online subscription club known as the ZGYM on her website, ZuzkaLight.com. With its enormous library of workouts, fitness programs, and meal plans, the ZGYM has helped to transform the lives of thousands of its members.
The following year in December of 2015, Zuzka published the book 15 Minutes to Fit- The Simple 30 Day Guide to Total Fitness 15 Minutes at a Time. Taking the guess work out of daily training, the book is designed to motivate and provide you the tools for starting a healthy lifestyle and achieving the body you always wanted.
It includes:
- A 30-day exercise plan for fat loss and strength, which can be done in just fifteen minutes a day in the comfort of your own home.
- Clear instructions and step-by-step photography of every move for proper form and technique.
- Accompanying meal plan featuring delicious, healthy recipes for each day.
- Essential tips and inspiration from Zuzka herself, coming to you as someone who overcame the odds in order to become the female face of fitness.
What I Do:
At-Home, Online Workouts:
My ZGYM is where I share a weekly workout schedule and post brand-new routines every week. It features a variety of full-length, real-time workouts, and a wide variety of programs for you to choose from: Beginners, Yoga, Body-Weight Only, Kettle Bell, Jump Rope, Postural Therapy, Mixed-Equipment, and so much more! I’m always adding a new workout series to keep your routines from ever getting boring or repetitive. Instead, you’re constantly challenging and improving yourself in new ways, which keeps you motivated and consistent towards reaching your fitness goals. My hope is to prove that you can get amazing results with 10-20-minutes of intense workouts per day, all without ever having to leave your house.
Smart, Effective Training:
The workouts I do are designed to be short and sweet. They’re meant to push your body to the max using the least amount of time as possible. My approach involves an innovative format wrapping together an assortment of cardio and complex movement-based exercises. While the exercises alone aren’t always complicated, when put together in this very format, they become quite challenging. In the end, your body will be under-going incredible changes. So no more long, drawn-out aerobics or bland, basic bodybuilding moves. My workouts are forever evolving and constantly stimulating. There’s no boredom, with new challenges waiting for you at any given moment.
Guided Meal Plans and Nutrition:
Just like I offer an array of workout programs and styles, I also provide meal plans based on several nutritional approaches. For instance, there’s one centered largely on the power of plants, and another one focusing on low carb, high fat. Moreover, these meal plans all have an important element: taking the tricky guess work over what to eat and doing it for you. Many experts tell you what to eat, but they never dive deep on what that actually looks like! That’s where my meal plans come in. They’ll be guiding you throughout the whole process, programming all of your main meals, snacks, and grocery lists. They even provide helpful tips like managing cravings, controlling portion sizes, and eating intuitively. Outside of these meal plans, I provide tons of free recipes and information on nutrition on my site, covering an even bigger array of topics like the power of whole foods, eating for recovery, and learning how to find the best diet for YOUR unique self.
Inspiration Through Lifestyle:
When I workout, I let people see that I’m human just like them- struggling, but using my own determination to push myself even further. With this example, my aim is to motivate others to push themselves and do the same. Working out and living this fitness-based lifestyle has helped me tremendously. It lifted me from the negative influences that came into my younger life. I am eternally grateful that I found this calling- it’s why I want to share my passion with as many people as people. Ultimately, I’m out to change lives, not just bodies. Fitness does more than a body good- it shapes up your mind and spirit.

I have been following you since 2009. I did not know what you went through. I admire you. You inspire me. I also did gymnastics as a child, then went to the gym and got certified as a Pilates instructor. I am not teaching now, but combine Pilates with your exercises. Best!

Today I moved my body to get started with your Bunny slope no. 1 video on youtube for Beginners!
It really worked. When I just sat down and watched it, it looked so easy. But once I started it! GOD!
Really worked and now I’m all sweated. Thanks! I’ll keep working and let you see the result! Thanks!

I went into the local Lorna Jane shop yesterday. I was talking about you with the sales personnel there. They knew who you are – OF course! I love shopping there. Ever since I found you via a friend of mine a few years ago – my body is changing and I am SO jazzed about it! Thank you!

I am so glad you created a new website and broke away from your ex-husband! I stopped watching the BodyRock videos due to the sexual nature and couldn’t understand why your husband wanted to put you out there like that. I also remember when he didn’t want you to change your hair back to blonde. I could not stand the new girl at all. I am glad I am able to support you, like you support me and my health! Thank you for everything!
