Sound familiar?

You are full before your calories are in

Eating more sounds simple until you have to do it. The solution is smarter choices with more calories per bite, not forcing yourself.

What you gain is the wrong mass

Just eating more without strength training mainly adds fat. The goal is to become stronger and fuller, not just heavier.

You burn everything right away

A busy life and a fast metabolism need a plan that accounts for them, with portions and moments that fit your day.

De Bouwmethode

How we tackle it

Healthy weight gain runs on the same system as any other goal, tuned in reverse: a sustainable calorie surplus with enough protein (nutrition), strength training so the surplus goes to muscle instead of reserve, and sleep that regulates recovery and appetite.

Together we find food you genuinely like in bigger quantities, and build your training progressively. Weekly measurements show whether the weight lands where it should.

Same trousers, same pose, different body. From hard gainer to visibly stronger.

★★★★★

“Superdiscrete trainer met een clientèle op hoog niveau. Timon is een briljante kerel en uitstekende gesprekspartner voor mensen die een veeleisende job hebben. Ik heb ervaring met verschillende PT's en Timon is de enige met echte technische background. Duidelijk geen uit de hand gelopen hobby, maar pro niveau in wording. Ik heb zelf ook een drukke job met verantwoordelijkheid en Timon past zich aan aan mijn agenda. Veilig en te vertrouwen voor 1-on-1 training, ook voor vrouwen.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much do I need to eat to gain weight?

A surplus of 200 to 400 calories per day is usually enough. More mainly adds fat mass. We calculate your starting point at the intake and adjust based on what the measurements show.

I have little appetite. Can this still work?

Yes, with calorie-denser choices, liquid options and smart spreading across the day. You never have to stuff yourself; the plan works around your appetite.

Won't I just gain fat?

Not with strength training in place and a limited surplus. Look at Steffen: same trousers, twelve kilos of muscle added. That is targeted weight gain.

The perfect moment does not exist.

Whoever waits for ideal circumstances waits forever. In twenty minutes we map where you stand and what the logical first step is. You will walk away with something useful either way. If it is not a fit, I will tell you myself.
