Janna, a Google Recruiter, Lost 15kg and Built a Healthier Lifestyle
Janna , a Google recruiter created the healthy lifestyle she'd always wanted with the guidance of her ATP Personal Training coach and lost 15kg in the process!
"It wasn't just about how I looked or who I saw in the mirror. It was about wanting to change my lifestyle to a better, sustainably healthy one."
BEFORE ATP PERSONAL TRAINING:
Before working with ATP Janna felt dissatisfied. Her life felt out of balance and she had accumulated a number of bad habits that robbed her of energy and left her feeling sluggish. She was relying on takeaway and food delivery and her clothes didn’t fit the way they used to.
"THE DAY I COULD NO LONGER FIT INTO MY FAVOURITE JEANS WAS WHEN I KNEW I HAD TO MAKE A LIFESTYLE CHANGE. THAT WAS MY BREAKING POINT"
Why did you decide that now was the right time to get started?
The day I could no longer fit into my favorite jeans was when I knew I had to make a lifestyle change. That was my breaking point. I had been living in Singapore for about 8 months then. I was at my heaviest weight, I ordered take out 2-3 times a day and consistently chose happy hours over going to the gym. It wasn’t just about how I looked or who I saw in the mirror. It was about my low energy level, bad habits I’ve built and wanting to change my lifestyle to a better one.
What has surprised you about the process?
One thing that surprised me most about the entire process is the mindset shift that comes along with the external transformation. And really seeing what you can achieve when you put your mind to it. I didn’t have any specific expectations going starting out at ATP besides to lose weight. What I got of it was way more than I bargained for. Making a conscious effort to choose food that will give me sustained energy, choosing to prioritize my workouts because I know I will feel incredible afterwards, and choosing to challenge myself and seeing what I can do! At the end of the day, it’s ultimately your choice. We have one life, one body – might as well take the best care of it 🙂
AFTER ATP PERSONAL TRAINING:
What has your experience with ATP been like?
ATP has and continues to change my life. I started my personal training and health/fitness journey in January 2020 with Jacqueline Toh and I haven’t looked back since.
I was not expecting a full lifestyle change by joining ATP. It’s more than just going in for workouts and a meal plan, it’s about breaking bad habits and setting better ones for yourself that will last a lifetime.
"THE COACHES AT ATP REALLY CARE ABOUT YOUR WELL-BEING, AND HOW YOU'RE DOING. IT'S FAR FROM TRANSACTIONAL."
So far, I’ve dropped 15 kg in 12 weeks, I dropped 8 kg in the first 6 weeks. And that’s only the beginning! Thank you to Pete, Jac and the rest of the ATP crew for continuing to motivate me and inspire me everyday! Also, shout out to the front desk crew for the amazing motivational quotes on my protein shakes everyday 🙂
"MY MINDSET AROUND NUTRITION HAS CHANGED AS WELL. I'M FAR MORE EDUCATED, MAKE BETTER CHOICES, AND DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO OVEREAT WHEN I FEEL STRESSED OR WORRIED."
Janna’s Top 5 Transformation Tips:
Make your workouts a priority! You control your schedule, your schedule doesn’t control you.
It’s easy to make your workouts and training a backburner in the midst of our busy schedules, but utilizing your time management skills will pay off in the long run. If you have happy hours/dinners planned after work, then get your workout in the morning. Not a morning person? Try to squeeze in a quick workout mid-day. There’s 24 hours in a day, you can squeeze in that workout!
Keep your eyes on your long term goal. Focus on the process, the results will come.
If you’re doing everything according to your trainer’s recommendations and sticking to the plan, the results will show up one day and you won’t even notice the changes that your body is going through. Focusing on the results too much could potentially sway your progress. If you’re putting in the work, it’s impossible there’s no output.
You have more self-control and discipline than you think.
It’s all about your mindset and the attitude you put forth. Cravings and temptations will never go away, but you have to figure out if that momentary bliss is worth derailing you off your bigger goals. You have to figure out what you’re willing to sacrifice and what you’re not. Communicate that with your coach and you can make it work into your lifestyle change.
Progress is progress, no matter how big or small. Cheer yourself on every step of the way.
I don’t think we give ourselves enough credit for the little wins we achieve. Being able to lift 1kg more than the day before, or shave off a few seconds from our 5k runs is absolutely important to celebrate!
Find a solid support system! Family/friends that will help you through the tough times.
Aside from your coach, it’s important to have your life cheerleaders to help you stay on track. Share your progress photos with, help keep you accountable and on track!
My mindset about nutrition has changed as well. I’m far more educated, make much better choices, and don’t feel the need to overeat when I feel stressed or worried. All these things added up to have such a profound impact on my life.
I’m also very proud that I didn’t give up and stuck to my plan to get my new body.
"IT WASN'T JUST ABOUT HOW I LOOKED OR WHO I SAW IN THE MIRROR. IT WAS ABOUT MY LOW ENERGY LEVEL, BAD HABITS I HAD BUILT AND WANTING TO CHANGE MY LIFESTYLE TO A BETTER ONE."
What have you done to stay on track during lockdown?
My coach has given me a comprehensive workout program to keep me busy during the Circuit Breaker – each day, I know what training I need to get done. Since, I’ve been working from home, it was even more critical for me to create a routine and structure that worked for me and my new working situation. I’m in constant communication with my coach, and she has helped me stay motivated especially on the tough days.
How have you stayed focussed?
It’s been quite an adjustment from the gym to home workouts. I have kept in mind that this situation is not permanent, and that ATP will be able to open their doors again when it’s time. I’m doing what I can to continue to be active, prioritize my mental health and take each day as it comes. Each week, I’ve been challenging myself to increase reps/weights and which continues to fuel my energy to keep going and push myself even more!
How has working with your coach made you more resilient?
I’ve gotten to know my coach very well over the past few months, which has built a great foundation for our continued training during the lock down. She’s listened to my concerns in adjusting my program to accommodate the changes brought on by the lock down. She knows how to keep me motivated and is able to continue to give me advice on how to continue my progress through check-ins and being accessible through different modes of communication.
JANNA AFTER 12 WEEKS WITH ATP PERSONAL TRAINING
What advice would you give to people when starting out?
My biggest advice for anyone that is considering to start their own journey with ATP is – are you mentally ready to create change in your life? Having an incredibly strong ‘WHY’ is going to help you weather through the toughest of days and carry you through when you are feeling lazy. Those moments are temporary, but pushing through them will reap long term rewards. But, then again if you stray, that’s also temporary as well 🙂 You can always get back on track, especially with the help of your coach!
"YOU CAN ALWAYS GET BACK ON TRACK, ESPECIALLY WITH THE HELP OF YOUR COACH!"

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.
