The method behind the results

No guesswork. A system.

There are thousands of personal trainers. And everyone has an opinion. What most don't have is a why behind the what.

My method is the result of over 20 years of work. Of direct mentoring by Charles Poliquin. Of my own experiments as a marathon runner and as an athlete in strength and endurance. Of diagnostics that go beyond estimates.

Pillar 1

The Poliquin method

Charles Poliquin was a scientist of the human body. Over more than three decades he trained athletes in more than 17 sports. People who trained by his methods won over 800 Olympic medals.

Poliquin trained me personally. Not through a certificate course, but through years of mentoring.

What sets Poliquin's method apart: the focus on maximum metabolic efficiency through structured supersets and precisely calculated movement tempo. The goal is to create the greatest muscular stimulus in the shortest time.

„The method works because it listens to the body, not to the trend.“

Pillar 2

Lab values & energy metabolism

Know your crossover point. Train more precisely. Eat smarter.

Knowledge replaces assumption. We decode your biology through spiroergometry and precise lab analysis. We find out what slows your metabolism down and build a programme on top that makes body and mind perform.

Spiroergometry: determining your crossover point, the exact threshold where your energy metabolism switches from fat burning to carbohydrates.
Blood analysis: comprehensive lab testing to determine your hormonal baseline, inflammation status and 40+ further biomarkers.
VO2max: measuring the gold standard of your cardiovascular resilience and your biological age.
Precision protocol: the foundation for your tailor-made nutrition and training system without losing time.

Pillar 3

The Hybrid Athlete principle

I am both: marathon runner and strength athlete. Exactly this combination is what I train with my clients.

VO2 max is the decisive value here. It measures maximum oxygen uptake. No value says more about longevity and mental performance in later life. The higher the value, the more resilient your cardiovascular system. And the faster your body recovers from stress, travel and intense working phases.

Pillar 4

The mental component

I was a banker. I know what a working day feels like that starts early and ends late. As an accredited mental coach, I integrate techniques from elite sport psychology into my coaching. Not as an add-on, but as a structural part of the system.
