ABOUT ME

ABOUT ME

Who I Am

My name is Sergei.
I’m a certified personal trainer, posture specialist and movement coach with 10+ years of professional experience.

I don’t work with shortcuts, extreme methods or temporary motivation.
My coaching is built on structure, discipline and a deep understanding of how the body and mind actually function.

Over the past decade, I’ve worked with 300+ clients, online and in person, helping them:

  • lose fat

  • build lean muscle

  • correct posture

  • regain control over their body and habits

My focus is long-term transformation, not quick fixes.


PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

Before dedicating myself fully to coaching, I built and managed a network of travel agencies in Saint Petersburg.
That experience shaped how I work today:
systems, responsibility, leadership and long-term thinking.

Later, I lived and worked in Singapore as an international model and personal trainer.
High-performance environments taught me how stress, lifestyle, discipline and self-image directly affect physical health and body composition.

Today, I’m based in Amsterdam, working with an international client base.


INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE

I’ve coached clients from in person and online:

  • the Netherlands

  • Singapore

  • Russia

  • and other countries

This gave me a clear understanding of how:

  • lifestyle and work routines

  • stress and sleep

  • cultural habits

  • nutrition patterns

impact posture, recovery and long-term results.

Because of this, no two clients follow the same program.


MY PROFESSIONAL APPROACH

I’m not just a gym trainer.

My expertise combines:

  • strength training

  • posture correction

  • mobility and flexibility

  • yoga, Pilates and TRX principles

  • recovery and nervous system balance

I also hold a professional massage therapy certification, which gives me a deeper understanding of anatomy, muscle chains, tension patterns and movement restrictions.

Posture correction and body alignment have been a core focus of my work for over 10 years and are fully integrated into the BST System.


COACHING & BEHAVIOR CHANGE

A large part of my work goes beyond physical training.

I work with clients who struggle with:

  • unhealthy habits

  • lack of discipline

  • emotional eating

  • long-term inconsistency

Instead of forcing motivation, I use structure, awareness and behavioral change.

We don’t just train the body.
We rebuild habits, routines and self-control.

That’s why results last.


NUTRITION AS A FOUNDATION

Nutrition is a core part of my system.

Up to 60% of body transformation depends on nutrition, not training volume.

My approach is:

  • adaptive, not restrictive

  • tailored to lifestyle and workload

  • adjusted for health conditions

I’ve worked with clients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, where nutrition adjustments helped improve glucose stability under medical supervision.

Nutrition is not a template.
It’s a strategic tool.


MY MISSION

My mission is simple:

To help people build strong, healthy bodies through correct movement, posture, nutrition and discipline — and to show how deeply physical health affects confidence, mental clarity and quality of life.

This is not about aesthetics alone.
It’s about control, strength and long-term health.


THE NEXT STEP

If you feel your body deserves a smarter, more structured approach —
we can start with a conversation.
