1:1 Coaching
STAYDANGEROUS.
1:1 coaching for combat athletes and men who refuse to stop. Get out of pain, rebuild your body, and return to the mats stronger than before the injury.
Sound familiar?
Your body doesn't work like it used to
If any of this sounds like you, you're exactly who this coaching was built for.
“My knees are shot.”
You've been told to rest, ice and take it easy. Months later, nothing has changed — except how much fitness you've lost.
“I've seen five different physios.”
Passive treatment and low-stim exercises got you out of the clinic, but never got you back on the mats.
“I don't want surgery.”
You've been told it's the only option. In many cases, building real capacity changes that conversation entirely.
The longer you wait, the closer you get to becoming the man who used to train.
Steven Sahyoun.
Meet your coach
Rehab is good training. Good training is rehab.
After rupturing his Achilles, Steven experienced first-hand the gap between rehabilitation and returning to performance. Over 15 years of coaching, navigating his own injuries and working with combat athletes, he developed a system that works backwards from the demands of the goal and progressively rebuilds the capacity required to return.
- Establish a clear baseline
- Work backwards from the goal
- Progressively build capacity
- Reassess and adapt the plan
Movement is medicine. Capacity matters more than diagnosis.
The process
How we rebuild you
Worked backwards from the demands of your sport — not forwards from your diagnosis.
01
Establish The Baseline
We start with the end goal. Your assessment establishes what you can currently tolerate, what your sport or activity demands, and where the gap exists.
02
Identify What's Missing
We work backwards from the demands of your goal to identify the gap between the positions, forces and velocities required and what your body can currently produce and tolerate.
03
Build Capacity
Training is designed to progressively nudge you forward by increasing the range, force, velocity and complexity you can tolerate.
04
Return To Performance
We gradually reintroduce the demands of your sport and adapt the plan until your capacity meets or exceeds the task.
Client success

FAQ
Questions, answered
Still unsure about something? Apply anyway and ask Steven directly — every application gets a personal reply.
01I've already tried physio. How is this different?
Most rehab stops at pain-free. This starts there. We work backwards from the demands of your sport and build the capacity to meet them — mobility, strength, velocity and sport-specific conditioning, reassessed every week.
02Do I need to be a competitive fighter?
No. Most clients are men in their 30s and 40s who train BJJ, MMA, Muay Thai or boxing recreationally and want to keep training for decades — and stay capable for their families.
03I've been told I need surgery. Can this still help?
This isn't medical advice, and some injuries do need surgery. But many athletes who were told surgery was the only path have rebuilt enough capacity to return to full training. Your assessment will show what's realistic for you.
04How does coaching work if I'm not local?
Everything runs remotely: video-based assessment, an individualised program in the training app, weekly check-ins, and direct message access to Steven.
05How long until I'm back training?
It depends on your starting point — that's the honest answer. What you get is a clear roadmap after your assessment, with measurable progress every single week.
