Built for People Who Want More from Their Training

At Nordic Performance Training, we believe strength training should be simple, structured, and effective — not overwhelming or random. That’s why we do things differently.
Meet the Team
We’re not a commercial gym, and we’re not trying to be.
We’re a private training facility built for people who want to train with purpose — with expert guidance, clear programming, and consistent progress. No guesswork. No distractions. Just training that works.
Whether you’re getting back in shape, recovering from injury, or chasing long-term performance goals, we meet you where you are — and move you forward, one session at a time. We coach. We track. We adjust. You show up, follow the plan, and get stronger — week by week.
What we stand for is simple:
Training should fit your life — and still deliver results.
You don’t need more workouts. You need the right structure, at the right time, with the right support. That’s what we offer — and that’s why our clients stay consistent for months, not just weeks.— Because real progress comes from structure, not motivation.

Lucas Iversen
Personal Trainer & Physiotherapist
Whether you're rebuilding after a setback, chasing a performance goal, or simply trying to feel good in your body again, Lucas meets you exactly where you are. His own training philosophy is grounded in real life: staying strong and capable so he can enjoy long runs along Amager Beach in his ever-growing collection of super shoes — and most importantly, show up for his family in the best possible way.

Lucas often reminds clients that you don't need a specific goal to start training — the goal might come later. What matters most is simply showing up, consistently. His presence is calm, supportive, and built on years of experience helping clients create real momentum — one session at a time. This thoughtful approach creates lasting change through a flexible structure and sustainable habits.

Kasper Vinther
Personal Trainer & Physiotherapist
With more than a decade of experience as both a physiotherapist and personal trainer, Kasper brings a quiet confidence and a sharp eye for detail to every session. He's coached hundreds of clients and taught countless other coaches — both in Denmark and abroad — yet he still approaches every session with curiosity and care.

Kasper is deeply passionate about the science of training, but never lets complexity get in the way of progress. He keeps things simple, focused, and effective — always ready to fine-tune a movement or adjust a plan when it matters most. His coaching style is calm, positive, and rooted in helping clients feel confident in their own bodies again. When he's not coaching, you'll find him training himself — using our Nordic Full-Body program and knocking out Ironmans on the side.
