From the room
Three people
Shared with their permission. No names.
“My son is three. I want to be around.”
Forty, desk job, blood work that worried his doctor. 275 to 175 pounds, and it held.
He came to me not long after losing his father to a heart attack.
“I lost my dad early, and I can feel myself losing my health the same way he did. I want to leave my son a pile of core memories.”
Over the year we went from 275 to 175 pounds. Training, a way of eating he could keep, and a day with more movement in it. His blood work came back normal. Insulin, LDL, all of it.
That was five years ago. He has kept it.
She came out of treatment lighter, and much weaker.
Over sixty, end of breast cancer treatment. Three years later, stronger than before any of it.
Treatment had taken a lot of weight off her, and most of what she lost was muscle. She wanted her life back.
We worked together for three years. Slowly, and around everything her body had been through.
She ended up stronger than she was before any of it. She is happy, and she looks at what comes next with excitement.
He had tried every diet, every pill, every kind of training.
The answer was not another program. We built a team first.
Bullied about his weight since childhood. By the time he reached me there was nothing left on the list he had not attempted.
When I actually listened, I heard something else: he was looking for one thing that would fix it, and most of what had gone wrong he was placing outside himself.
So we did not start with training. We built a team around him, a psychologist, a dietitian and me, and began repairing the mental side first. His weight started coming down on its own.
He is in the best shape of his life now, and he volunteers at a foundation helping people who are where he was.
Individual results. Nothing here is medical advice. I work alongside physicians, not instead of them.
Clients
In their words
After years of setbacks including a back surgery and a quadruple hernia repair, Can was the one trainer who managed to help me work through recovery and regaining strength and balance.
David L.I'm 54 and since I was 14 I have been doing lots of sport. I have met 3 super coaches and Can is one of them. He's one of the coaches that you would like to keep your entire life.
Béatrice D.I have had Can as my coach for 5 years for my triathlon strength training. Substantial and consistent gains, my performance peaked like no other.
Ian S.He genuinely listens to your needs and tailors a personalized workout program. Thanks to his guidance, I have developed exercise discipline and remained injury-free for years.
Nese G.The best trainer I've ever worked with. I have seen results much faster than with other trainers. Results I did not even achieve after six months of intensive training.
Svetlana S.I have worked with several trainers over the past 2 decades and Can is absolute top notch. When he is with you he is PRESENT. The perfect balance of forceful but kind.
Rachel L.I have been working with Coach C for over 10 years now. Ever since we added swimming to my routine I have lost a substantial amount of weight and put on healthy muscle mass.
Terry G.I worked with Can especially for my severe back pain and I cannot emphasize enough how transformative the experience has been. He is simply the best.

The coach
Coach Can
Former elite national athlete. Degree in Exercise Science. EREPS Level 6, corrective exercise specialist, Level 2 Mat and Reformer Pilates instructor. Strength and conditioning coach to Olympic-level swimmers at national federation level.
Twenty years on the floor since. 30,000 one-on-one sessions with elite athletes, and with people who had never trained in their life.
What holds my attention now is ageing strong after forty.
The people who hire me are usually short on time, long on responsibility, and serious about ageing strong.
Because the new wealth is health.
