Daniel used to run up to 40km a week but still wasn’t getting the results he wanted. He put his trust in his ATP Personal Training Coach and after just 20 weeks he lost almost 20kg to become healthier than ever - and got the abs he always wanted too!

Daniiel life changing transformation at ATP Personal Training

I realised I needed to try a different approach and I’m so glad I did; ATP Personal training has really changed my whole perception of what weight training is.

What made you decide to sign up for coaching with ATP Personal Training?

It wasn’t a ‘what’, so much as a ‘who’ – my wife had been trying to encourage me to train with weights for years and a good husband always does what his wife says!

I’d actually been running for years, almost my whole life, but somehow I was always skinny-fat and I never looked quite the way I wanted.  My weight would get down to a certain point and not budge and none of my clothes would really fit properly.  In the end I realised I needed to try a different approach and I’m so glad I did; ATP Personal training has really changed my whole perception of what weight training is.

"You can use that discipline in all aspects of your life, not only at the gym. It crosses over into everything you do. It's made me better at work, better at home."

How would you compare yourself from day one to today in terms of fitness, mindset, physique, and health?

Physically, I look completely different. I’ve got abs now!  Fitness-wise I can run a 5K in under 22 minutes, so I’m fitter and healthier than I was when I was just running.

As far as mindset, I think if you can dedicate yourself to training for a long period of time, it shows discipline, and you can use that discipline in all aspects of your life, not only at the gym.  It crosses over into everything you do.  It’s made me better at work, better at home.

Overall, both mentally and physically, I’m a different person to what I was five or six months ago.

It might sound funny but I feel as though I am better than before somehow.  Being stronger in the gym makes me feel that I can tackle anything in life. I can do the hard stuff at work, then come home and still be daddy, throwing my girls up in the air. They seem to get lighter as they get bigger, which is good for me!   I think being fitter, healthier and stronger just makes me feel so much better in myself.

As you know, ATP Personal training teaches clients the concept of D.N.A. (Daily Routine, Nutrition, Activity).  Which of these was the most challenging part of the journey for you?

For me, it wasn’t actually any of those things that was the most difficult; there is so much support from my ATP Coach Jerome, and I can control my food and be disciplined with my training without too much trouble.  The hardest thing for me personally was simply being honest with myself and with my coach all the time.  For example, if I wanted to eat something I knew I shouldn’t, I knew I’d have to tell my coach and also be able to look at myself in the mirror and be honest with myself if I wasn’t sticking to the plan.

He would ask me every day, “How are you sleeping?”, “What are you doing when you’re not at the gym?”, “What are you eating?”, and it made me really think about the answers to those questions and how I wanted to be able to answer them.   Being honest with myself has forced me to change my mindset, and how I view food and diet.

Impressive-weight-loss-at-ATP-Personal-Training

What were your initial goals and expectations when you first joined ATP Personal Training?

Initially I think I wanted to lose 10 kgs and maybe learn a bit more about food and diet, hopefully feel healthier too.  Never did I think I would ever get the results I have in such a short time.  I had always wanted to look in the mirror and see some defined abs, but I thought it would be a consistent two year effort, nothing close to what we actually achieved!

What did you enjoy most about the process?

I have really enjoyed the whole journey.  I enjoyed the people and just how being part of ATP Personal Training made me feel. Coming here every day, it’s really friendly; everyone says good morning, it’s surprisingly relaxed.  My ATP Coach Jerome and I  have a really good relationship; we have a good bond and good banter!  But we both also know that we have to get the work done.

I think the straightforward approach at ATP is the thing I like the most.

"Being stronger in the gym makes me feel that I can tackle anything in life. I can do the hard stuff at work, then come home and still be daddy, throwing my girls up in the air."

What is the one thing that you’d recommend to someone about to start their fitness journey?

The one thing I would tell them is just to trust everything.  What I mean by that is you have to trust your trainer, listen to what they have told you and trust the process.

You need to have an end goal in mind and want to get somewhere, but you’ve really got to enjoy that journey as well. Again, trust is the key.  Trust the advice, trust your trainer, and listen to everything you’re told, and you will get there. Quicker than you think.

The truth is, if you want to achieve the goal, you’ve got to follow the process.

An absolute game-changer! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Having worked with several personal trainers in the past, I can confidently say that working with Ken Fong at ATP has been an amazing experience and the best investment I’ve made for my health. Thanks to his professional guidance and expertise, I lost 5kg in just 3 months - after my 2nd pregnancy, I didn’t imagine it was possible! Now I feel incredibly strong, energized, and healthy. 🤩 my left knee pain is also completely gone by week 4! What truly sets Ken apart is his coaching style. He was never harsh or aggressive, and he never made me feel guilty. Instead, he was always patient and deeply respectful. Rather than just pushing for a quick number on the scale, he focused on a tremendous lifestyle change and helped me completely transform my daily habits for the long run. If you want a top-tier trainer who motivates with kindness and expertise, look no further than Ken at ATP. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I’ve been training with Jasper for a few months now and I’m really happy with the progress we’ve made. Before this, I had never really stepped into a gym or done any proper strength training, so I started with very little idea of what I was doing. I can definitely see the difference now - I feel much stronger and can see more definition in my physique. More than that, having regular sessions has kept me accountable and made me more conscious of what I’m doing outside the gym too, from my food choices to staying consistent with training. I’ve definitely put in the effort myself, but having that structure and accountability has made it much easier to stay on track. I also really appreciate how Jasper adapted my programme when I injured my wrist, so I could continue training safely instead of having to stop completely. It’s been really nice seeing what my body is capable of and watching the progress add up over time. Still a work in progress, but I’m excited to keep getting stronger!

​8 weeks in with John David and and counting - he’s an energetic, encouraging trainer who gives just the right amount of push for my fitness and diet goals without overwhelming me. Ruth and Raf at the desk are always friendly and welcoming, and I love the cute, customized art on my to-go protein shakes! Such a heartwarming touch by the hidden artists—it's the thoughtful little details like that which set them apart!

Training at ATP Fitness with Arya has been an incredible experience. She is approachable, encouraging, and makes even the most challenging sessions genuinely fun. Beyond the workouts, I’ve learned so much about sustainable nutrition—she was always just a message away whenever I needed guidance on dining out, keeping me consistent and accountable without ever feeling overwhelmed. For the first time, I’ve managed to lose weight consistently without resorting to crash diets or unsustainable restrictions. The entire ATP team is welcoming and supportive; it really feels like a family. Huge thank you to Arya and the ATP team for guiding me through this journey!

I’ve had a great experience training with Mike and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to join ATP. I started out as a complete beginner, and he’s really helped me become much more comfortable and confident in the gym. With his help, I managed to reduce my body fat from around 32% to 22% and lose almost 10kg in just three months, which is a result I’m extremely happy with. Throughout the process, he has always made sure that my form is correct and that I understand how to perform each exercise properly. The progression in weights has also been very methodical and intentional, so I’ve always felt like I’m improving at the right pace rather than being pushed too quickly. What makes Mike stand out is how enjoyable he makes every session. He always brings great energy and is genuinely fun to train with — sometimes to the point where I almost forget how tough the workout actually is. He’s also very attentive and adapts each session depending on how I’m feeling. He regularly checks in on my energy levels, adjusts the routine when I’m having a lower-energy day, and knows when to push me harder when I’m feeling stronger. He’s very motivating while still making sure the training feels manageable and sustainable. Mike has also been very flexible with scheduling, which has made it much easier for me to stay consistent. Overall, he’s knowledgeable, motivating, patient and great to train with. I’ve made far more progress than I expected in a relatively short period of time, and I’d definitely recommend him, particularly to anyone who might be new to the gym.

Coach Danny is very attentive and genuinely cares about his clients. He encouraged me when I was losing faith and always trained me with a plan tailored to my health, fitness level, and capabilities. With his guidance, I achieved my initial goal and even received compliments from my friends, which gave me the confidence and motivation to continue my fitness journey with him. I’ve decided to keep training with Coach Danny and hope to take my body fat percentage to the next level with his support!

I signed up with ATP Personal Training with the goal of hitting my target within 6 months, and with Danial’s training I managed to achieve it in just 3. I honestly wasn’t sure I could get there when I first started, so achieving it in half the time I expected has been incredibly rewarding. I’ve genuinely never felt stronger or better in my life. Danial has been amazing to train with. He keeps me motivated, somehow makes even the toughest sessions fun, and always pushes me just enough to get the most out of every workout. What I appreciate most is that the programme never feels generic. He adjusts everything specifically to what I want to achieve and what my body needs, so every session feels purposeful and effective. He’s also helped me get my nutrition back on track after years of not eating properly, which has made such a difference to how I feel overall. He’s genuinely funny and easy to get along with too, which makes a huge difference when you’re seeing your trainer multiple times a week! I actually look forward to training, even when I know he’s about to put me through something brutal 😂 Couldn’t recommend Danial and ATP enough. The results have exceeded what I expected, and more importantly, I feel stronger, healthier and more confident than I have in years! I’m honestly so happy with how far I’ve come. I never thought I’d achieve my goal this quickly, and I’m the fittest and most toned I’ve felt in years. Couldn’t recommend Danial and ATP enough!

Being from Greece, I am very proud to be Danial’s (Danny’s) first Greek client and - definitely the most talkative one! I often tell him that he is the “trouble of my life” because he constantly pushes me beyond what I ever believed I could do.!! I joined ATP to lose weight and address shoulder discomfort. In threee months - despite spending three weeks travelling- I have lost 10kg, overcome my shoulder issue, and become leaner and stronger.. I strongly believe that my results are a shared achievement. I do the work, follow the plan and genuinely look forward to my sessions, while Danny provides the expertise, structure and corrections that have helped me make this progress. He listens, explains calmly, and knows exactly how to make me work harder and challenging me to keep progressing without compromising proper technique. His coaching never feels one size fits all as he understands what works for me and adapts his approach accordingly. Most importantly, his belief in what I am capable of, has helped me become more confident in myself. ATP provides a highly professional, supportive environment with genuinely friendly staff and having the right coach makes all the difference. I honestly feel incredible lucky to have Danny as my coach. He is humble, patient, genuine and funny and his own discipline and commitment have inspired me to become more consistent too. As he always tells me, “Trust the process” - something I have definitely learned to appreciate along the way. So yes, he may be the “trouble of my life” 🤣but he is also an exceptional coach and someone I trully respect. I hope that, as his Greek client, I have made his coaching journey equally memorable. I am excited to continue training with him towards my next goals.!

I joined ATP weighing 80 kg with approximately 32% body fat. Today, I weigh around 59 kg, and my body fat has dropped to 18.6%. Losing over 20 kg and reducing my body fat by 13.4 percentage points is an achievement I am incredibly proud of. A special thank you to my coach, KumaraVel, who has been much more than a personal trainer throughout this journey. He created a practical training and nutrition plan that suited my lifestyle, monitored my progress closely, and consistently checked on my meals, weight, recovery and overall well-being. This journey had many ups and downs, but KumaraVel always knew when to push me, encourage me or simply listen and reassure me. Even when I doubted myself, he remained patient and continued to believe in me. His humour and positive personality also made the most challenging days much more enjoyable. My transformation is not only about the numbers. With his guidance, I have become healthier, stronger, more disciplined and much more confident in myself. I am truly grateful to KumaraVel and ATP for supporting me throughout this life-changing journey. I would highly recommend ATP, especially Coach KumaraVel, to anyone looking for a committed, caring and motivating coach who genuinely wants to see you succeed.

I’ve been training with Michael since March 2026, and he is a fantastic trainer. Before joining ATP I had little experience with both the wide range of gym equipment and following a diet plan, so I felt a bit apprehensive about joining a personal training gym where there is nowhere to hide! But Michael is both patient and knowledgeable. He explains each exercise thoroughly to me and is very encouraging. I also really appreciate his realistic approach to the meal plan. I don't feel micromanaged, and working with him on my nutrition plan has enabled to lose weight and subsequently build muscle while still enjoying food. I have already achieved more than I thought I could with Michael: I have lost nearly 14kg since starting with ATP in January, and I am very close to being able to do unassisted pull-ups (this has been a long-term goal for me). I joined ATP because I wanted a lifestyle change, and not a quick (unsustainable) fix. I feel I am well on my way to achieving a sustainable lifestyle so I look forward to continuing my fitness journey under Michael's guidance! 💪😁

I’ve been training at ATP for about 1.5 months now, and it’s been an amazing experience. My trainer, David, has been great in helping me improve my technique and form, while also teaching me how to eat properly to achieve my goals. I’m already seeing great progress and getting closer to my body goal. Definitely recommend ATP!

It is my first time doing PT and Im really glad I had David to help me ease into the process. I considered doing PT after getting too overwhelmed with the information online. My goal was to build muscle and get lean and David has been a big help in helping me build a stronger version of myself. He also helped me adjust my meal plans when necessary and really pushed me towards a healthier lifestyle. Really grateful to him for his guidance

I’ve been training with David at ATP for a few months now and it’s been a total shift in how my overall life and health feel. Desk job work really took a toll on my body - my legs and hips especially - and I’d lost a lot of strength that I spent my 20s building. Working with David to restructure my diet, and have a workout routine that has been building a solid foundation for the rest of my adult life has been so rewarding. It feels great to be in an environment where there’s someone there to push you every workout, explain the mechanics and reasoning behind each exercise, and (maybe most importantly) keep you accountable to the healthy changes you’re making across your whole life. I couldn’t recommend ATP Fitness and PT David enough to someone looking to build their life up.
