George Ostache

Antrenor Personal

Experience

I started my sports activity by practicing athletics in primary school.

In the same period, I discovered strength training.

The pleasure of lifting weights guided me towards a sport of aesthetics: bodybuilding; where I performed at national and international level.

The passion for strength training led me to study and understand in depth the anatomy, physiology and training methodology, developing a career as a trainer.

Currently, after almost 10 years of experience as a coach, I have accumulated knowledge in:
* evaluation of muscle imbalances
* implementation of correction strategies
* planning strength training in order to achieve the desired goal

With love, I’m waiting for you at training!
