build superhuman strength & mobility,
anywhere and with minimal equipment.
The mindful and progressive bodyweight strength method to peak at any age while staying away from injury.
the coach
Hi!
My name is Nico and here's why I can help you peak in your 30's and never slow down after that.
Being the son of an athlete and coach, I started working out early in life.
From track and field to martial arts, I did a lot of sports.
Once I turned 16, my dad allowed me to join a gym, a real one, where I could finally lift heavy weights and get serious.
I learnt a lot and quickly became passionate about optimizing my training to stay in shape and look good.
This worked well...
Until my late 20s when I got really busy between a demanding job and my social life, and I started losing muscle and strength.
My traditional gym plan just didn't work anymore.
I couldn't even do a pull-up and I didn't like that.
The first thing I wanted to reclaim was my strength.
So at 28, I designed a plan to reboot my whole physique.
Fast forward 10 years later and I can do one-arm chin-up s for reps.
Two things helped me do this:
• My studies of gymnastics and Olympic strength training.
• My experience in martial arts methods.
The first one allowed me to build effective strength and movement programs, the second one helped me follow a safe and sound progression curve.
Martial arts actually inspired the whole philosophy behind my training method: mindful and progressive.
This is not only to make your training safer, but it's also the way you can keep progressing forever without hitting plateaus.
Together, we will rebuild your strength step by step, help you move like you never did before, and as a result, sculpt the most athletic body you've ever dreamed of.
In short, we are going to unleash your potential and transform you into the athlete you're supposed to be.
By the way, I'm also a certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist ( ISSA ), and a certified Calisthenics Coach ( WCO) .
Looking forward to meet you!
Looking forward to meet you!

Raymond k., ireland
"I'm like Romelu Lukaku on the field!"
"It's amazing how much stronger I felt after using the "Introduction to Calisthenics" program for just a few weeks. I play football and I just don't recognize myself anymore, I'm like Romelu Lukaku on the field! I'm now following "Bodyweight Conditioning" program and I keep progressing consistently. Just amazing!"
Dhamar r., Indonesia
"It took me a couple of months to do what I tried doing for 8 years"
"As a woman, I always thought I'd never be able to do "real" push-ups but it was still my goal. For 8 years, every coach told me I was too ambitious and I would probably never get there. But with this method, it only took me a couple of months to go from knee push-ups to whole sets of perfect push-ups with full range of motion! Thank you!"
franck c., france
"the difference is like night and day!"
"I started following Nico's method last year and after 2 months or so, everyone thought I was noticeably more muscular! After 5 months I could do sets of 5 one-arm push-ups, which seemed absolutely impossible before. I feel so much stronger now and can easily perform moves like pull-ups and L-sits on the floor. The difference is like night and day!"

frequently asked questions
Here's a few answers to questions you might have. Do not hesitate to leave me a note in the inquiry form if you want to ask about something else!
do i need a gym membership?
The short answer is no.
You won't need a gym membership to train with me since your training can be done with minimal equipment, which I will help you to get of course.
However, if you want to make sure you really have all the tools and space required, it might be more convenient for you to join a gym.
They will surely have everything we use in my method.
how will i be charged?
I normally use Stripe (one of the leading payment platforms) to send a simple payment link with tax invoice.
If you are not comfortable using your card online, we can use bank transfers or whatever is more convenient for you.
will i be refunded if i am not satisfied?
Yes, if you follow my program diligently but do not see any improvement after 3 months, I will refund you in full.
This never happened.
Enso bodyweight strength method
Enso
The philosophy behind the name
In Zen, an Enso is a circle that is hand-drawn to express a moment when the mind is free to let the body create.
The Enso symbolizes strength, elegance, personal development, simplicity, mindfulness. It is characterized by a minimalism born of Japanese aesthetics and is an expression of self through movement.
The circle may be open or closed. In our case, the circle is incomplete, allowing for movement and development towards mastery of our craft.
Although a Zen master can usually draw a better Enso than a beginner, this is of very little importance. Anyone can practice it regardless of their level, and what is important is self development.
Calisthenics is a form of strength training that uses a variety of movements (often derived from gymnastics), to increase strength, flexibility, and improve posture, body composition and overall fitness.
The word calisthenics comes from the ancient Greek words for beauty and strength.
The way we practice calisthenics in our community has a lot in common with the philosophy of the Enso. We train to develop our strength and overall fitness with minimal equipment, and pursue mastery of our bodies through movement. We strive for perfection and push ourselves to become stronger and fitter everyday, but always mindfully and intelligently. We trust and enjoy the process of going through each required step, in order to get long term results and benefits without ever hurting ourselves.
Calisthenics movements are also a way for us to express ourselves and get creative with our bodies, just like gymnasts and other performers. Masters can perform these movements more beautifully, but anyone can practice calisthenics regardless of their level. Just like with drawing the Enso, we are not concerned with one's level of mastery, but rather with self development and becoming better than yesterday.
When you train with us, you'll build your dream body, you'll enjoy long term health benefits, you'll finally be able to hold a handstand or whatever your goal may be, and you will love the process of training pain-free, location-free, and moving more and more freely.
