I've been a personal trainer based in Amsterdam for over 10 years. Like many young boys, my athletic start began with dreams of being a football player. But my love for the sport at age 15 resulted in injuries. It was then I transitioned to martial arts, which also introduced me to the world of strength training.

Since then, I've seen every fitness trend come and go (while taking part in some of them and regretting it). Eventually, I woke up and figured out what actually works: evidence-based training that I personalized for myself. And the importance of the three pillars, which at their core are exercise, nutrition, and sleep.

After 20 years of working out, I try to tell my clients why we do what we do instead of just bossing them around. Building the body you want isn’t just about lifting weights and counting reps; it’s a mental game too.

If we tackle both, we’re going to see some epic results.

Proust!
