Hey everyone. I'm from Belgium and I enjoy lifting weights and gaming. I stream my lifting sessions as much as I can. If you need any gym related advice or want to talk about your training, feel free to pay me a visit.

Why am I here?

Panel Content
My goal is to show that lifting weights can be enjoyable, healthy and for everyone. During my streams I like to talk about: - things to do (technique, building strength and muscle, ...) - things not to do (bad technique, mentality, ...) - how to deal with difficult situations (gym anxiety, finding your way, ...) - everything in between Feel free to stop by and chat!

Do I even lift?

Panel Content
I most certainly do! Lifting has been a hobby of mine since 2017. I started lifting after a shoulder injury. I was doing rehab exercises with weights and they felt lighter after a few weeks. I was hooked. You can't go wrong with getting strong! My current best lifts are: - 150kg/330lbs squat - 105kg/231lbs bench press - 207,5kg/457lbs deadlift - 80kg/176lbs overhead press

Am I a coach/athlete?

Panel Content
No I am not. I do this as a hobby. I just know things. Things I am eager to share with you all. I have learned from the best in the business. I am also being coached by a former professional strongman. That puts me in a very privileged position. I want to use that position to give advice and help people where I can. There's a lot that I don't know, but I'll be sure to tell you when that's the case. Don't be afraid to ask things.

What's my home gym like?

Panel Content
I live on the 2nd floor of an apartment. My home gym is in the 2nd bedroom. It consists of: - A power cage with safeties, also used for bench and overhead press - A plate loaded cable machine that allows for high and low pulls - An adjustable bench - A makeshift deadlift platform with gym mats and drop pads to avoid earthquakes - A 20kg barbell - A 22kg safety bar - 230kg in plates - Dumbbells ranging from 2kg to 30kg - An elliptical

How do I stream?

I stream with a Logitech C920 webcam and a wireless Steelseries Arctis 7 headset. Great products for their price!

When do I stream?

My timezone is CET. My training streams are usually on Tuesday evening, Wednesday evening and Saturday afternoon. Make sure to check my Twitch schedule for localised times. I update it every Monday.

Do you want to hang out?

Great, thank you! Just toss me a follow and talk to me in chat. We can talk about a lot of things besides the usual: - strength sports and athletes - nutrition - video games I prefer no religion or politics in my chat though, so please don't talk about those.

Do you want to support me?
