Bridging the gap between science and spirituality, JJ Armstrong, founder of T2 Alpha X4 and MET Science, combines her uniquely strategised three focuses… PHYSICAL POWER, MENTAL TOUGHNESS and PERSONAL PERFORMANCE creating a comprehensive life optimised blueprint with a military style edge.
JJ’s career began in the British Army where she was one of just a few women who graduated from the Army School of Physical Training to train soldiers for peak fitness and combat. She spent more than 8 years in the PT Corp as a Physical Training Instructor, training male soldiers for combat fitness and performance.
Her interest in the mental side of training grew as she progressed in her career, serving in the Special Forces, strengthening her innate self-reliant personality and ability to think on her feet.
As a teenager she studied hundreds of trainers and systems from the Nightingale Conant Catalog adding to her library of tools. In addition to her growing interest in Mind Control she began to incorporate mind mapping, speed reading and advanced memory techniques into a unique brand of mental training.
JJ later introduced her strategies to a couple of private clients, one of which used these techniques to secure licenses to practice as a physician (medical doctor) and fly planes (pilot).
Always looking to evolve and have new experiences, JJ sold her first business to study in the US and become an expat for the first time, an experience she has had in 5 countries so far.
While in the US, JJ proceeded to study for her master’s degree M.S. at the prestigious United States Sports Academy and using principles of accelerated learning to get her degree in half of the regular time, with a 4.0 grade point average. She will also tell other entrepreneurs out there that it is “never too late” to become a student or an expat!
JJ took a position at the National Personal Training Institute in New York. She led a team of instructors, who delivered and certified trainers. She has also had extensive experience teaching new PTs how train people of all ages with acute and chronic health considerations, to prevent injuries. JJ enjoyed her time teaching but felt that at her core she was an entrepreneur not an employee.
Once back in London, JJ formulated her functional training system into a brand. This brand grew to include a team of trainers and several locations in London – Mill Hill, Camden and Regent‘s Park. The London Women’s Bootcamp became a successful enterprise in a crowded market, due to its personalized service and utmost efficiency. This was a concept that she would later turn into Powerfrau Bootcamp, a German version of the program.
After selling her bootcamp training system, she spent time researching, travelling, and subsequently relocating to yet another new city and preparing the launch another new project.
Fast forward to today… she has several training systems on offer. Like a cross between a personal development programme and Military Special Ops Training, T2Alpha X4 sends you on a mission to uncover and morph into the idealised version of yourself. The concept stems from JJs vision of an idealised version of you that exists as a guide whom you can communicate with as you apply scientifically based methods to transform your body, mind and life. T2 Alpha X4 is the culmination of 30+ years of experience and insights and delivered in the most efficient way possible.
T2Alpha X4 also offers a “COMBAT AGING” version specifically designed for those in midlife that seek strategies to protect against the accelerated aging effects of hormonal changes (namely menopause or andropause for males) as they are taken through the T2A X4 blueprint.
JJ currently lives with her partner and their 22 year old African Gray parrot in Europe, and trains clients and trainers worldwide via online and remote training and rare live events.
