Our mission: evidence-based strength training for everyone
Gym.Coach was created in Amsterdam with one clear goal: making safe, evidence-based strength training accessible to everyone. Gym.Coach supports 95% of all commercial strength machines across major and independent brands and prepares 5 smartly selected machines every workout.
Why Willem van Ditzhuijzen Built Gym.Coach in Amsterdam
I kept seeing the same pattern on the gym floor: people over 30 want to stay strong and protect their joints and lower back, yet quit within three weeks because the free-weight area feels intimidating and complex workout trackers with 200 exercises cause decision fatigue.
At the same time, almost every commercial gym already has world-class pin-loaded machines from Matrix, Technogym, Life Fitness, Hammer Strength, Precor, and Gym80 that can train your entire body safely in 30 minutes, provided you know which 5 machines to use today, which seat number fits your body, and which weight pin to select.
That is why I built Gym.Coach in Amsterdam: open your browser, follow 5 smartly selected machines at a controlled 1-1-3 tempo, and walk out in 30 minutes knowing every muscle group was trained in balance.
