Hi, I’m Thorsten!
I am a graduate sports and exercise scientist from the German Sports University in Cologne. My main subjects during my studies were sports medicine and training sciences.
Afterwards, I worked in clinical and ambulant rehabilitation, specializing in orthopedic problems, especially back pain. I also served as a physical fitness coach in the German Premier League soccer and handball.
At the same time, I received my first contract as an author and wrote my first book on “back training.” It was quite successful, leading to more author contracts. To date, I have written and published 30 books. Along the way, I discovered my passion for writing, which led me to a career in medical and fitness journalism. With more than 20 years of experience, I have contributed to major newspapers and magazines in Germany. In addition, I am the co-founder of the fitness startup panthr, where we focus on innovative smart textile solutions for performance analysis and injury prevention.
My mission
As the co-founder of panthr, I am proud to be part of a groundbreaking startup dedicated to real-time movement analysis in sports and fitness.
