MEET
As a passionate powerlifting coach and athlete, I bring years of experience to help others achieve their best. My journey began in 2016 to improve my jiu jitsu performance, but powerlifting soon became my focus. Since competing in 2019, I’ve excelled as an athlete and coach, joining Team Hype Coaching in 2021.
With a background in sport sciences and certification as a personal trainer, I combine technical expertise with international experience to help athletes grow physically and mentally. My coaching emphasizes resilience, confidence, and technical mastery for peak performance both on and off the platform.
As an athlete, I’ve set multiple Belgian records in the squat, bench press, and total, including a 310kg squat and a 213kg bench press, with an 813kg total and GL score over 100. I’ve competed in two Junior World Championships and a Junior European Championship, earning 7th place at Worlds in 2022.
If you’re ready to elevate your strength and confidence, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. From breaking personal records to excelling in competition, I’ll help you achieve your goals.

What's included in the coaching?
Your coaching journey begins with an intake session. During this session, we get to know you, your fitness history, and your specific goals to pair you with the most suitable coach. The coaching program is designed to provide comprehensive support tailored to your needs:
- Personalized Weekly Programming: Your coach provides you with a training plan customized to your goals and personal progress, updated weekly.
- Unlimited Contact: Stay connected with your coach to ask questions, share videos, and receive feedback whenever needed.
At Team Hype, our mission is to ensure you have all the tools, support, and guidance to achieve your goals effectively.
Can I choose my coach?
Yes, as long as the coach has a spot available at the time. We always strive to match you with the coach who best aligns with your goals, availability, and personality.
What if I have never tried powerlifting before?
No problem at all! Powerlifting is for everyone, whether you’re completely new to the sport or have prior training experience. Our coaches will guide you step by step, ensuring you learn the proper techniques and build a strong foundation. With personalized programming and expert support, you’ll be set up for success and ready to make incredible progress.
Do I have to compete to join Team Hype?
No, not at all! Many of our athletes pursue powerlifting to challenge themselves and improve their strength without the goal of competing. We’re here to coach and support everyone, whether you’re training for personal growth or preparing for competition.
I have an injury, can I still do powerlifting?
Yes! Our coaches will do their best to work around your injury and help you heal as quickly as possible. We’ll adjust your program to ensure you can continue training safely while focusing on recovery. Your progress and well-being are our top priorities.
How do I communicate with my coach?
Depending on the coach, you’ll be able to communicate through Instagram or WhatsApp. Additionally, we have two community group chats, one on Discord and one on Instagram, where you can ask questions and get answers in a fraction of a minute. This ensures you’re always supported, whether it’s sharing training videos for feedback, seeking advice, or staying connected with the Team Hype community.
Do you offer nutrition guidance or meal plans?
We provide basic nutrition advice to help you adjust to your current eating habits and ensure they align with your training and performance goals.
For those seeking a more in-depth approach, we offer access to a dedicated nutrition coach at an additional cost. They can create a personalized meal plan tailored to your specific goals and needs, complete with weekly check-ins to monitor progress and make adjustments.
