Coaching

Built on how athletes train

Every programme starts from the same principles I use myself: strength as the foundation, then power, speed and moving well. What changes is the level, not the approach.

01

Athletes

Handball is my specialty. For young athletes in any sport, I build the athletic base every sport needs: strength, speed, power and resilience.

  • Strength and power
  • Speed and change of direction
  • Injury resilience
02

Teams

Athletic sessions for clubs and teams, from youth squads to senior sides. Planned around your training week and competition schedule.

  • Team athletic sessions
  • Youth athletic development
  • Season planning support
03

Everyone else

You don't need to compete to train like an athlete. Get strong, fit and capable, with body composition goals as a result of training well, not the other way round.

  • Personal training programme
  • Nutrition and lifestyle guidance from pro-sport practice
  • Online or in person
Approach

Test. Plan. Train. Retest.

You see your progress in numbers, not just in the mirror. Every block starts and ends with simple tests, so we both know exactly what is working.

01 / TEST

Where you are

Strength, jump, speed and movement baseline, plus your goals and schedule.

02 / PLAN

What you need

A programme built for you, matched to your level and the time you have.

03 / TRAIN

Do the work

Log every session. I follow along, give feedback and adjust as you go.

04 / RETEST

Prove it

After each block we test again and set the next targets.

About

Robin Jansen

My whole life has been built around being a great athlete, and around the choices that come with it. I came up through the Dutch youth national teams, played two years for the senior national team, and won the Dutch championship, the Dutch Cup twice and the Supercup.

Today I play professionally in the German 2. Bundesliga. Training to perform at that level, and to stay healthy doing it, is my daily work. As a pro athlete I get to learn every day from the performance coaches and physios around me, and I bring that knowledge into my own coaching.

Alongside my own career I coach: individual athletes online, and extra athletic training for young athletes who want more. RJ Athletic brings that together, with one idea at its core: everybody can train like an athlete.
