About My Training
Built for You
Train for Life
Customized, science-based training for long-term health and real-life fitness — so you can keep doing what you love, for longer.
Personalized Training
Every plan is built according to the person’s goals, history, physical capacity, and lifestyle, and follows a clear structure over time.
Evidence-Based Practice
Training is guided by scientific principles and current evidence. Methods are chosen because they are proven to work, not because they are trendy or visually impressive.
Education and Awareness
Through clear explanation and practical learning, people develop better technique, better effort management, and better decision-making inside and outside sessions.
feature credentials
Certified Specialist in Physical Exercise
In Portugal, TEEF is the recognized qualification (IPDJ) for working professionally with exercise. It’s a two-year formation where I studied coaching, anatomy, training methods, personalized training, pedagogy and much more. – the foundations for helping people improve safely, effectively and consistently.
Who I Work With
From everyday health
to sport performance
Whether your goal is to feel better day to day or perform better in sport, the approach is the same: clear goals, consitent training and steady progression with sustainable effort.

Adults
I train adults who want to age strong, stay healthy, and keep their energy – with personalized training that fits their lifestyle, builds consistency, and supports long-term health.

Old Adults
I train older adults who want to maintain function, independence, and quality of life – with adapted training that builds strength, and confidence in movement, while reducing pain, lowering injury risk, and removing fear around exercise.

Athletes And Sport-Oriented
I train sport-oriented individuals who want to improve performance while staying healthy and injury-free, through structured and sport-relevant training that builds strength, mobility, and physical capacity while managing load and preventing injuries.

Quick start guide
6-step success:
Your fitness roadmap
We’ve developed a meticulously crafted, comprehensive six-step process that acts as your personal roadmap, guiding you steadily towards your fitness goals.
01.
Get In Touch
Send me your goal and your context (schedule, training experience, injuries/pain, preferences). I’ll reply with a clear next step and explain which service fits you best.
02.
Assessment & Goals
We start with a practical assessment -posture, movement quality, mobility, basic strength patterns, and any pain or limitations. Then we set clear goals and priorities based on what you need most right now.
03.
Traning Plan
I build a plan around you – your body, lifestyle, and objective – using science- and evidence-informed principles. You’ll get a simple structure, clear priorities, and progressive steps so you always know what to do and why it matters.
04.
Train
You train with precise coaching and feedback. I focus on the unsexy fundamentals: quality reps, good technique, the right dose, and consistent execution – and I teach you along the way so you build awareness, not dependency.
05.
Re-Assess
We track what matters and review how your body is responding: performance, recovery, consistency, and how you feel in real life. If something isn’t working, we adjust it early.
06.
Update the Plan
Based on your progress and feedback, I refine the plan for the next phase. Same direction, better fit -so you keep improving month after month with training that stays personalized, progressive, and sustainable.
