Over the next two months, I will share about 3 of my running clients who are training for races in the same weekend. I actually have 9 clients racing the same weekend and I will be running too. I am helping them in different ways, some are doing gym work with me, others I am [...]
The video below is what you can expect during your first biomechanics session with me. I wanted to make something that helped take away the uncertainty of coming to see me for a screening for the first time. This screening process allows me to find out what exercises to give to clients that are specific to how [...]
We are not fully into triathlon season yet, however I am already seeing some great feedback from my endurance athletes who come to me to help with how they move and how it is converting to their performances. Here are some of their stories: Martijn is a [...]
In the last few months, the number of runners and triathletes working with me has gone up. They come to me to work on their biomechanics and strength. It is a real joy to see the work we do in the gym have a positive effect on their training to reach [...]

Personally I don’t make new year’s resolutions. I like to make good decisions about my health throughout the year and slowly work on habits [...]
I recently read that if the parent participates in sports or goes to training sessions with the kids, children are more likely to participate in sports themselves. I can’t remember where I read this anymore, so I hope I didn’t make it up. But it did make me look back and reflect on where my love of [...]
Yes! Another race report. Second and final triathlon of the season was on the 25th of September at the Bosbaan here in Amsterdam. It was an Olympic distance (750m swim, 40km bike, 10km run). It is always fun to do a local race, but as we haven’t been racing for a while, this race also [...]
