Physiotherapists Who Specialize in Strength Training

His calm, thoughtful coaching creates structure and progress; he helps you build habits, understand movements, and stay the course.

Personal Trainer & Physiotherapist
Mathias brings calm, clarity, and precision to every session. His steady, professional presence makes clients feel safe and focused — regardless of their starting point. With deep technical knowledge and a sharp eye for detail, he ensures that every movement has a purpose and every session moves you forward. He's known for explaining training in a way that makes sense: clear cues, simple communication, and realistic adjustments. You don't just understand what to do, but why it works and how to repeat it on your own. His approach is structured and realistic, focused on quality, learning, and steady development.
We use strength training as our form of physiotherapy—to create positive adaptations in your body, shift your mindset, and help you understand pain differently. Our educational background gives us a perspective beyond what most trainers have. We see not just the mechanics, but the entire human behind the movement. We consider your life outside the gym, your goals, your challenges, and what truly matters to you.
This lets us make precise adjustments today while keeping the long game in focus. We know when a small change prevents a problem months from now. We understand when to push, when to pull back, and how to keep you progressing without overwhelming you. Every decision is made with both your immediate session and your long-term success in mind. We adjust the details while never losing sight of where you're headed.
Between us, we've coached thousands—from complete beginners to professional athletes—and mentored physiotherapists and trainers across Denmark and internationally. We've spent years studying how bodies adapt and get stronger, and how the mental side matters just as much as the physical.
When you train with us, you're working with professionals who see the complete picture and make the process smooth and sustainable.

All our personal trainers are specialists in strength training with backgrounds in physiotherapy or other healthcare areas. You get your fixed trainer who understands your goals, your situation, and your needs.

Getting Started

Will I always have the same personal trainer?

Yes — you train with the same trainer each week, so you build trust, structure, and stable progress over time. It creates continuity, and your trainer gets to know you and your body.

Getting Started

How do I choose my personal trainer?

You speak directly with one of our owners, who matches you with the trainer that best fits your calendar and needs. All trainers work from the same system and quality level, so you get the same professional experience regardless of who you train with.

Getting Started

Do your personal trainers have experience with injuries or rehab?

Yes. All our personal trainers are also educated physiotherapists and have extensive experience helping clients rebuild after injury, manage pain, or regain strength after surgery. Every program is always adapted to your situation and goals.

Getting Started

Is it possible to train in English?

Yes — all communication, coaching, and app content is available in English. We work with many international clients in Copenhagen.

Getting Started

Should I get a personal trainer or do it myself?

If you want real, lasting results, a personal trainer is an investment that can pay off. You avoid trial and error, train smarter, and stick with it — with a program built specifically for your goals and lifestyle.
