What is the change you are offering?

“Well, I would say: freedom through routine/structure. Freedom comes from structure. When you follow a training and diet program, you don’t have to think what you have to do. Just follow the program and results will follow.

What will I gain, on a personal level?

“A better, healthier you through structured scientific training and dieting.”

How will you motivate me?

“Well, when you train you feel better instantly, this is caused by the release of endorphins. Long term, you will be healthier; bloodmarkers improve, cardiovascular fitness improves, you’ll have more energy and be less prone to get sick. Having muscles isn’t just for the looks, it will help you age better and live longer enjoying good health, while slowing down age-related disease and discomfort.

All in all, the positive cognitive effects of exercise translate into a higher level of wellbeing!”

Why should I hire a PT and not just go to the gym myself?

1. Some people are intimidated by the gym. They don’t know what to do or where to start. I provide guidance and lead you along the exercises.
2. Others need the scheduled appointment with me as a structured motivational tool.
3. For more experienced lifters who have plateaud, an expert opininion to get the gains going again is advisable.
4. After or during a treatment by a physiotherapist. Successful treatment of an injury by a physiotherapist doens’t mean it stops there. Full recovery and, even more important, rebuilding strength, requires training. I can guide you through these steps, to regain muscle strength and function.

I’ve never been to gym, and feel a bit hesitant where to begin…

“You have to start somewhere! I can help you take the first steps, to boost your confidence! Gyms feel intimidating, yet they shouldn’t be. Everybody is welcome, every body is welcome.”
