Who I am

I am Remko Opdam, a personal trainer in Haarlem and the founder of Infinite Health. I have been coaching for ten years, and in all those years I keep seeing the same pattern in people over 40: they have tried everything, they usually know what they "should be doing", and still the results do not come. Not for lack of willpower, but for lack of a plan built around what a body over 40 actually needs. I coach in English and in Dutch, so language is never the thing that gets in the way.

That focus is not an accident. A plan that works for a 25-year-old rarely works the same way for someone of 45 or 55. Recovery runs differently, injuries weigh more heavily, and for women the menopause plays a role that most generic training plans ignore completely. That is why I have built my training and my approach around exactly that.

That is exactly where I make the difference: training, nutrition and coaching brought together in one personal programme, built around your body at this point in your life.

What I specialise in

Not a generic PT offer. Three areas I have deliberately committed to.

40+

Training for people over 40

Recovery, injury risk and the rhythm of your life are different at 45 than at 25. My programmes are built for that, not a young person's plan in a new coat.

Perimenopause & menopause

Falling oestrogen levels affect muscle mass, bone density and recovery. I match training and nutrition to the phase a woman is in. More about this →

Injuries & recovery

Through Mylogenics Activation, Release & Rehab I look further than the exercise itself: at movement, stability and how much load your body can handle, so that training with a complaint does not mean stopping.

Qualifications & certifications

Frequently asked questions

Where do you train as a personal trainer?
I train at SportCity Haarlem Raaks, a large gym in the centre of Haarlem. You do not need your own SportCity membership to train with me: I arrange access for our one-to-one sessions. The location is easy to reach by car and by public transport from Haarlem Central Station. If you would like to read about the location first, the page about training at SportCity Haarlem Raaks has more practical detail on getting there and on session times. The gym floor is quiet enough for focused one-to-one coaching, without waiting for machines or working around group classes. Parking nearby is usually straightforward, and from Haarlem Central Station you are there within a few minutes. That central position makes it realistic for clients from Haarlem itself, and from Bloemendaal, Heemstede and the surrounding towns, to keep training consistently.

How do I book a free intake with you?
You book a free intake through the contact form at the bottom of the Infinite Health homepage, or by emailing info@infinite-health.nl directly. I will then contact you personally within one working day to arrange a time. During the intake we talk through your goals, I measure where you are now, and I put together a personal plan, with no obligation. It is also the moment to work out which programme fits your situation best, whether you are just starting out or already carrying specific complaints or goals. The intake costs nothing and commits you to nothing. Either way you leave with a clear picture of what a programme would mean for you, even if you decide to wait a while. Still unsure which programme suits you? That is no obstacle. We decide that together during the conversation, based on your goals and the time you have.

Who is your coaching not suitable for?
My coaching does not suit everyone, and I would rather say so up front than halfway through. If you are after a quick fix that lasts a few weeks, you are in the wrong place: the minimum starting period is four months, because below that too little changes to hold on to. If you only want a training plan and then to be left alone, you would be paying me for coaching you never use. If you are looking for passive treatment without training yourself, a physiotherapist or a massage therapist is the more logical address. And if your symptoms are acute or unexplained, that starts with your GP, the Dutch family doctor, not with a trainer. Where I do make the difference: people over 40 who have tried everything, who are dragging a complaint that will not go away, and who are willing to put consistent time into it for several months.
