I'm Balazs, a UESCA Certified Running Coach and certified personal trainer. I started coaching after seeing people give up on programs that didn't fit their lives, not their motivation. That shaped how I work: every relationship starts with a detailed questionnaire and a conversation, so your plan is built around your schedule, body, and goals, not a template. I coach primarily online, and meet clients outdoors in person when location allows. Most of my athletes are runners, from first 5K to marathon, but I also coach general strength and fitness.

I believe sustainable progress beats fast results every time. My goal isn't to keep you dependent on me forever, it's to help you build habits you can carry forward long after we stop working together. That means no rigid templates: every plan starts with a proper assessment, adapts as life happens (injuries, busy weeks, setbacks), and moves at a pace that respects where you're actually starting from, whether that's your first run or your next personal best. I work with runners and general fitness clients at every level, and I'd rather build something that lasts than something that only works while I'm watching.
