ABOUT ME
ABOUT.
MEET IVAN RAYKOV
Hi, I’m Ivan Raykov — the founder of Raykovperformance, a certified personal trainer, massage therapist, and nutritional coaching specialist with a lifelong passion for human performance and well-being.
I graduated from a professional sports school in 2011 after more than 4 years of intensive education focused on training theory, anatomy, recovery, and athletic performance. Since then, I’ve spent over a decade coaching a wide range of clients — from busy professionals and everyday individuals trying to stay in shape, to elite football players, triathletes, runners, and Ironman competitors.
Fitness has been my life’s calling. I believe that strength, balance, and health are not just physical qualities — they are foundations for a fulfilled life. That’s why I’ve dedicated myself to helping people transform not only their bodies, but also their mindset, confidence, and overall lifestyle.
At Raykovperformance, I offer both in-person (offline) and online services to fit your needs and schedule. Whether you prefer training in the comfort of your own home or connecting virtually from anywhere in the world, I bring the same level of dedication and personalization to every session. My approach combines personal training, massage therapy, and nutrition coaching — tailored to your goals, your fitness level, and your lifestyle.
My philosophy is rooted in functional training, long-term consistency, and mental resilience. Whether you’re a busy professional juggling work and family or a competitive athlete aiming for peak performance, I help you unlock your full potential in the most practical and sustainable way possible.
As an Ironman athlete, I understand the power of structure, discipline, and inner drive. I know what it takes to prepare for race day, recover from injuries, break through mental plateaus, and keep going when your body wants to quit. That mindset fuels how I train my clients — not just to look better, but to feel more alive, more capable, and more in control of their lives.
EXPERTISE.
TRANSFORMING LIVES THROUGH PURPOSEFUL PERFORMANCE
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of people:
-
Executives and entrepreneurs seeking energy and stress relief
-
Recreational athletes chasing new personal bests
-
Professional footballers maintaining off-season performance
-
Triathletes and runners fine-tuning race strategies
-
Individuals recovering from burnout and injury, rediscovering their strength
STRONGER TOGETHER.
What sets me apart is the personal connection I build with each client — whether we meet in person or work together online. I listen. I adapt. I challenge. And I show up every session with full commitment to your progress — physically, mentally, and emotionally.
No matter where you are right now in your health journey, we can start from there and move forward — together.
Let’s build the strongest, healthiest, and most confident version of yourself — from anywhere in the world.
