Bio

I have been coaching CrossFit for just under ten years. I got into the ‘sport of fitness’ as a student and quickly decided to qualify as a coach. Before CrossFit, I played football for many years and ran long distances – trail runs are still a favourite! My love for endurance-based sports definitely influences how I coach. I program workouts that are not just a physical challenge but also a mental one. That said, I also think it’s important that people enjoy their training. Sometimes, the best way to push through a gruelling session is by adding an element of play or by bringing your best (training) buddy along. 

I’m currently training in a mix of different sports. Next to CrossFit, I swim, run, and have recently taken up bouldering.
