How online coaching works

It all runs through TrueCoach. You open the app at the gym, the session is there, and whatever you log or film comes straight to me.

Weekly programs

Each week's sessions show up in the TrueCoach app with sets, reps, loads and rest written for your gym and your equipment.

Video feedback

Film your top sets. I reply with what to fix, usually one thing at a time so it sticks.

Check-ins

Sleep, stress, body weight and how the week felt. Heavy training only pays off if you recover from it.

Direct messages

Your gym has no safety squat bar, or you're travelling? Message me and I rewrite the day.

The long game

PRs come quickly in the first year. After that we're building tendons and ligaments, which take two years or more to adapt.

About Simon

I'm Simon Van Neste, a NASM certified trainer with a math and economics degree from Whitman College, working out of my own gym in Kula, Maui. I started lifting and doing yoga around the same time. These days it's almost all powerlifting plus a few stretches a week, and I haven't lost any mobility.

Good exercise choices handle mobility. Recovery comes down to sleep and managing stress. The people who stay healthy are the ones still training decades later.

Originally from Belgium. I do eat croissants, chocolate and waffles, on special occasions such as leg day.
