Losing Weight in Basel – Sustainably, Without Sacrifices, With a Real Plan

You've tried it several times already. The diet, the treadmill, the app. It goes well for a few weeks—then life gets in the way, your motivation fades, and the weight comes back. Sometimes even more than before.

The problem isn't your discipline. The problem is that you don't have a plan that truly fits you—your daily life, your preferences, and your starting point.

Why Most Diets Fail—and What Really Works

One trainer. One client. Full focus on your goal. No waiting for equipment, no wrong exercises, no wasted time.

Instead, it's about proper exercise form, a progression tailored to you, and the right guidance and motivation right from the start.

You'll get a program tailored to your body, your daily life, and your goals—not to the average person.

In one-on-one training sessions with Matthias Kegelmann and Niki Karagiannis at EVO Fitness Basel, you’ll work toward specific goals right from your first session—with measurable progress.

"I'vebeen able to lose weight, gain muscle mass, and feel much better both physically and mentally. I couldn't be happier with how my training is going."
— Marco F., 45

Here's what you'll get from weight-loss coaching


Before we get started, let's take a closer look: What's your daily routine like? What do you eat? What hasn't worked so far—and why?

Analysis of Your Current Situation



No copy-and-paste. We'll work out which foods are good for you, what portion sizes are realistic—and how to stay on track when eating out with friends and family. No drama.

Personalized Nutritional Approach

Effective workouts don't have to last for hours. With 2–3 targeted sessions per week, you'll boost your metabolism, maintain muscle mass, and see results faster.

Workouts That Help You Lose Fat



We'll monitor your progress, make any necessary adjustments—and support you through all the ups and downs.

  • Thanks to the systematic personal training, I've been able to build muscle, my back pain has almost completely disappeared—and I'm more confident than ever before.

    Miriam L., 40

  • Matthias is great at tailoring his training to individual goals. His customized program is just the right level of challenging and is really fun, even though I've never been a fan of the gym. Since I started doing strength training with Matthias, my back problems are a thing of the past.
