CYBEX by Anna Lewandowska
Anna on the collection, life, and her secret to finding balance
The sports coach, mom and influencer talks about the collection, her passions in life and what drives her to be the best version of herself.
What was your inspiration for the collection?
"My sport collection combines my values and the values of the CYBEX brand. For me, it is important to take a holistic approach to health, meaning regular exercise. For a long time, I have been encouraging women to do this, especially young mothers, creating tools and solutions to facilitate a healthy lifestyle and helping them to balance motherhood and the pursuit of their passions. In turn, CYBEX gives parents ways to exercise, and also peace of mind with their reputation for safety. All of this has resulted in a beautiful, light and subtle collection for exceptional women."
Describe the collection in three words.
"Passion, energy and care."
This is a beautiful, light and subtle collection for exceptional women.
Describe your typical daily routine.
"Once upon a time my answer would have been “morning workout, healthy breakfast, planning the entire schedule for the day, dealing with all my responsibilities”. Now I have two children who can turn anything, even the best-laid plans, upside-down. We have many roles as women - we work, we are moms, wives, daughters, friends… And in all of these roles we try to give 100%, too often forgetting to take care of our own needs. That’s why I make sure to find time just for myself every day. Sometimes it's a short walk listening to my favorite podcast on my headphones, other times it's a long bath when the girls go to bed, but every day I try to create some me-time. This helps me find balance and be a better mom, wife, daughter and friend."
What keeps you motivated every day?
"There are no shortcuts to a healthy lifestyle. Changing bad habits is not easy ‒ it involves numerous challenges and sacrifices. I’m lucky that sport has always been a great passion of mine, but when it comes to healthy cooking, for example, that was something I had to learn. I am constantly learning how to rest and listen to my needs… What motivates me? Over three million people follow my everyday life on Instagram. Every day, I am in contact with hundreds of wonderful women who, thanks to the tools I have created, are changing their lives for the better. They are healthier, happier, and more self-confident. It’s these women and their amazing metamorphoses that make me want to do even more every day."

What are you most proud of?
"I am proud that I was not afraid to turn my passion and dreams into my own way of life. I started with a small-scale Healthy Plan by Ann blog. Today I run and co-run several companies, create solutions, and come up with tools that help people live better and healthier. From the very beginning, my activity has been based on three pillars: a healthy diet, exercise, and psychophysical balance. I am glad that I can work with various companies and pursue my mission by reaching more and more people. My collection for CYBEX is the best example of this."
