About our Wednesday evening trainings
About our trainers
Rob Klerkx (chief trainer)
Growing up in Brabant, Rob started training and racing at an early age. Though he finally chose for a professional career in music, he continued cycling and also developed himself as a personal and cycling trainer. Rob knows better than anyone else how to transfer his passion for cycling to other cyclists. Especially by emphasizing the dynamics and surprising variety in aspects of this exciting sports. Rob’s personal approach, solid training structure, regular references to pro cycling and sense of humor characterise his trainings. He knows how to get the best out of everybody!
Stach Aarts (our guest trainer in June)
Another Brabander. He started watching the Tour de France with his dad during the summer holidays as a teenager. Though Stach was initially more into ball sports (football, rugby, golf and lots of tennis), he bought his first racing bike in 2008 and put his fascination of watching the pros into practice. A couple of years later he started running and swimming as well. When he bought his first time trial bike, his triathlon passion began, all the way up to full distance racing. Although Stach loves racing his TT-bike, he probably enjoys riding up an Alpe or Dolomite even more. The combination of working as an educational specialist/teacher ánd sports makes Stach the certified cycling instructor and running coach he is: his philosophy of always asking ‘why’ and ‘how’ will absolutely challenge you, make you a little fitter and just a little wiser:-)
