About
Vans Catindoy
Founder of ARISE and Running & Hybrid Sports Coach, building durable, high-performing athletes through structured, data-driven programming.
Race day
Vans has coached 100+ athletes across running, triathlon and HYROX, from couch-to-marathon beginners to performance-driven age-group competitors and hybrid athletes.
His approach pairs evidence-based programming with a flexible, athlete-centered system. Plans are grounded in data and structured progression, but coaching decisions adapt to each athlete's response, lifestyle and feedback, so performance is sustainable over the long term.
A key pillar is integrating strength & conditioning with prehab and mobility. For Vans, building resilient athletes is non-negotiable: athletes should be able to handle increasing training loads while keeping injury risk low.
He has coached athletes to podium finishes in running, triathlon and HYROX, bridging general fitness and competitive performance. He also trains and races himself, and is an Ironman 70.3 finisher.
