"Working with Fabian has been a game-changer. His assessment-first approach identified exactly what my body needed, and within a few sessions I was moving better and feeling stronger than I had in years. Highly professional, highly effective."

"Fabian is really an excellent personal trainer, one of the best in my experience. As a 50+ woman with a knee problem, he has helped me get fit, strong and reach my goal weight. He tailors his approach very specifically to your body, your circumstances and your own ambition."

"After years of back pain and three physios who couldn't fix it, one session with Fabian changed everything. He found the actual cause — not just where it hurt. I left the session moving differently."

"I became a trainer because I wanted to understand the body — not just push it. Every qualification I pursued was an answer to a question my clients couldn't get answered elsewhere."

The story

From the track
to the lab.

I started Core Motion Lab because I believe in training with the right tools and assessment. No guessing — only collecting the metrics and information needed to build a programme that is truly yours. Sustainable results that last are always more important than short-term wins that fade.

My background in sport started long before personal training. I spent 5 years coaching track and field athletes and 5 years as a tennis coach — over a decade of reading bodies in motion, understanding performance, and learning how different people respond to different stimuli. That foundation shaped everything that came after.

In personal training, I spent 5 years coaching 50+ clients through real body transformations — people who changed not just how they looked, but how they moved and felt.

But I kept encountering clients with chronic pain, recurring injuries, and patterns that wouldn't shift no matter how well we trained. That led me to P-DTR — Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex therapy. A neurological approach that goes directly to the root cause of dysfunction, not the symptom. I'm completing my P-DTR specialist training and conducting sessions at Kingnetic in Amsterdam centrum.

Today, Core Motion Lab brings all of that together: science-led training, full ROM and movement assessment, and neurological reset through P-DTR.

The method

Assess · Reset · Rebuild · Sustain.

01
Assess
Map Movement and Physiology before programming anything.
02
Reset
Fix the limiting system first. P-DTR for movement, nutrition for physiology.
03
Rebuild
Load progressively. Strength, conditioning, and composition shift here.
04
Sustain
Movement capacity and body composition become self-reinforcing.

BODY COMPOSITION

The aim: pain-free, full-range movement, and a body that performs. Composition — including visceral fat — shifts as a result.

P-DTR · Neurological Pain Reset

The Reset phase.
Root cause, not symptom.

Most treatments address where you feel the pain. P-DTR addresses why it's there. Using muscle testing and deep tendon reflex stimulation, faulty neurological signals are identified and reset — in session.

Book P-DTR session → Book — €100
Who it's for
01 Chronic pain — 3+ months, no structural cause found
02 Recurring injuries that keep returning despite treatment
03 Movement restriction — normal MRI, still limited
04 Post-rehab plateau — officially recovered, still not right
05 Post-surgery compensation patterns that won't clear
Step 01
Assessment
Muscle testing maps which receptors are sending faulty signals.
Step 02
Reset
DTR stimulation corrects the signal at the source — not the symptom location.
Step 03
Retest
ROM, strength and pain re-measured after every intervention. Change is visible in session.

Who this is for

Built for people doing
everything right and still waiting.

01
Stuck at the same weight
You train consistently. You track what you eat. The scale hasn't moved. The issue is usually which system is limiting you — not effort.
02
Movement that feels restricted
Stiffness, compensation patterns, pain during or after training. Your body is working around a problem — not through it.
03
Ready to fix the root cause
Realign. Move freely. Get stronger. Let body composition shift as a result — not as the goal.

Movement first

Restore full range.
Then build on it.

Every session starts from where your body actually is — not where it should be. We find the pattern that's limiting your movement and address it directly, before progressive load is added.

The result is strength that builds on a stable base. Movement that doesn't come with compensation as a side effect.

How we work together

The map.
Step by step.

01
Movement
Restore pain-free,
full range of motion.
We find what's restricting you and fix it first. P-DTR if neurological. Movement correction if structural.
02
Strength
Build load your body
can actually handle.
Progressive overload built on restored movement. No compensation patterns under load.
03
Nutrition
A plan that fits
your life, not fights it.
Built from your habits, triggers, and lifestyle. Adjusted weekly from the data.
04
Accountability
Regular check-ins
to keep you on track.
Weekly measurements. Direct access. No unexplained plateaus.
