that much over the years. However, I&#8217;m doing more cardiovascular work now, more conditioning type work. At 50 years old, I&#8217;m getting more value from trending work like zone two training. I do about four to five hours a week of aerobic work, partly because I enjoy the psychological benefits\u2014I&#8217;m prone to anxiety, and it helps regulate my mood.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">I&#8217;ve invested in a bike for my bedroom with a smart trainer and a cycling desk so I can work or listen to podcasts while riding. This setup allows me to do about four to six hours a week of primarily aerobic work. I still dedicate about four hours weekly to strength training to maintain muscle mass and a reasonable body fat percentage.<\/p><p>The biggest change is that I&#8217;m doing less running now. At 103 kilograms, running more than two or three times a week causes significant joint pain\u2014I&#8217;m showing early signs of arthritis. Cycling is non-impact, so I can do it for several hours weekly without the same discomfort.&#8221;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d6c2a26 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d6c2a26\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cc5a6a8 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"cc5a6a8\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-396a124 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"396a124\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>JAY HORLEY:<\/strong> &#8220;For me, there are continual tweaks to find what aligns with my goals, which can be a moving target. Currently, I do Jiu Jitsu five days a week. Outside of that, my split is three days of lifting\u2014about 50% focused on mobility\u2014and two days of aerobic work.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Over the last decade, I&#8217;ve been interested in self-experimentation: I&#8217;ve done the Big Three lifts, bodybuilding-focused work, gymnastics, and bodyweight training. I&#8217;ve come full circle to a system of one day upper body, one day lower body, and one day total body, with a couple of aerobic days mixed between.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">My goal is simply to improve aerobic fitness on aerobic days and gradually get stronger on weightlifting days.

break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;Jeremy, for your executive athletes, how would you construct a training week for a typical client with limited time? What would be your priorities if they only had three hours to train?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>JEREMY:<\/strong> &#8220;It would obviously be client-dependent, but I have a few executive clients now who are quite deconditioned and overweight. We&#8217;ve agreed they&#8217;ll come in for four strength training sessions per week, and we&#8217;ve put them on a low calorie diet because the primary goal is weight loss\u2014they&#8217;re on a 30-40% deficit, losing about one to two kilograms weekly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">They do zone two work independently. In Singapore, we have the luxury of having gyms in apartment complexes. They do aerobic work on low-impact equipment, keeping their heart rate at about 60-75% of their estimated maximum for at least 30 minutes, now up to one hour, four days per week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">These executives get up early, get on a bike or treadmill for 45-60 minutes, send me a screenshot, go to work, eat a healthy meal, and then I see them at lunchtime. In the gym, we focus exclusively on strength training with the goal of building muscle. I don&#8217;t need to oversee their zone two sessions\u2014I coach them for strength training and provide nutritional guidance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;So if they&#8217;re coming in three times a week, you&#8217;re taking care of the big rocks. The focus on strength training serves multiple purposes: building and retaining muscle mass, working through full range of motion at all joints, essentially incorporating weighted stretching to improve mobility as a byproduct of proper strength training.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">We&#8217;re not looking to create a metabolic disturbance in the gym necessarily\u2014we&#8217;re relying on diet for fat loss and additional zone two training to help. The zone two work isn&#8217;t just for weight loss; we&#8217;re chasing a longevity adaptation in the aerobic system, upgrading mitochondria, and helping clients feel better overall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The more someone commits to zone two early on, the harder we can work them in the gym later, creating a more significant metabolic response. This means we can fuel them more aggressively around their training once they&#8217;ve lost initial weight.&#8221;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-500d06b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"500d06b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c70ba66 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c70ba66\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>JEREMY:<\/strong> &#8220;Exactly.

We ignored the context that Charles was typically working with athletic, younger populations.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Applying that glycolytic energy system-based training to someone without a deep aerobic foundation means they&#8217;re exhausted after just a few sets of even simple exercises like split squats and lat pulldowns.

How do you sell it to them?<\/strong><\/h2><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>JEREMY:<\/strong> &#8220;We talk about the longevity benefits. These executives are in their 40s and 50s, so they value longevity. We discuss the downsides of high BMI and body fat percentage, and explain that the most effective way to lose weight is through a caloric deficit, which can be enhanced by zone two work. They&#8217;re not just burning calories; they&#8217;re improving their cardiovascular system.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">We measure resting heart rate daily, so they see the improvement\u2014that&#8217;s positive feedback. I send them podcasts and resources to convince them to do more. Initially, some are skeptical, but within a week, they&#8217;re often hooked.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;I think you&#8217;re right. For me, the most powerful thing while doing zone two work is listening to a podcast that explains the benefits\u2014you create a positive echo chamber, flooding your subconscious with reinforcement while actually doing the activity.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>JEREMY:<\/strong> &#8220;These executives often work from home, so they can listen to news or take meetings while doing zone two work. It&#8217;s not wasting time\u2014they&#8217;re killing two birds with one stone.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;That&#8217;s an interesting contrast with gym training, which requires intentional focus on what you&#8217;re doing when lifting weights\u2014you need concentration to ensure you&#8217;re maximizing that time. Zone two is different\u2014we should put together a resource of ideal pairings, like what work-related activities can be effectively combined with different types of exercise.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Most people who successfully implement these protocols are already layering tasks\u2014they&#8217;re on calls, catching up on news, or listening to podcasts while doing low-intensity work. They&#8217;re combining a professional growth task with a longevity-related task, getting two things done that might otherwise be neglected.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0db1230 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"0db1230\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5604765 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5604765\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"text-2xl font-bold mt-1 text-text-200\"><b>Zone 2 + Productivity: Smart Pairings for Busy Professionals<\/b><\/h2><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">As a personal training coach who works with executives and busy professionals, I&#8217;ve found that combining Zone 2 cardio with productive activities is key to consistency.

Ideally, you want fewer, longer sessions rather than many short ones, but accumulating 180 minutes weekly is the key threshold.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;Three hours or 180 minutes might sound daunting for beginners, but for your clients at 110-115 kilos, the intensity required is quite minimal. You could do two hours on a treadmill or bike, perhaps while taking meetings, and then simply walking after dinner would contribute to that zone two work. Even if your heart rate isn&#8217;t at 130, but more like 115-118, especially outdoors in Singapore&#8217;s heat, you&#8217;re still getting benefits.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>JEREMY:<\/strong> &#8220;Absolutely right. Initially, for a deconditioned client, just going for a walk puts them in zone two, so it&#8217;s relatively easy to accumulate that time. I have them start with at least 20 minutes per session, beginning with 60 minutes weekly, then increasing by 15-20% each week\u2014not increasing intensity, just the volume of training minutes.&#8221;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9359d40 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9359d40\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6228c6e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6228c6e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><strong>The Minimum Effective Dose for Gym Work: Quality Over Quantity<\/strong><\/h2><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;Many clients come to us trying to mimic influencers or bodybuilding routines, thinking they need five days a week in the gym. I&#8217;ve rarely encountered a client who actually needs that much gym work to achieve their goals. For most clients, three full-body sessions per week is sufficient.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">There&#8217;s plenty of scope to experiment with different setups to keep it fresh, but it doesn&#8217;t need to be more than that. Even Dorian Yates said if you&#8217;re a natural athlete training hard, you can&#8217;t effectively train more than three times a week. Only assisted bodybuilders can handle five or six days weekly.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">For a 45-year-old executive, three days a week hits all the bases\u2014you get the frequency, exposure, and enough volume. Most don&#8217;t have advanced physique goals requiring adding inches to specific muscle groups. Three hours in the gym per week is sufficient, and then they can scale up their efforts outside the gym.<\/p><h4 class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><b>Do you ever have to tell clients to pull back on training if they&#8217;re overdoing it?&#8221;<\/b><\/h4><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>JEREMY:<\/strong> &#8220;I don&#8217;t have clients who overdo strength training, but from my experience, more volume doesn&#8217;t yield proportional benefits. If I do a 90-minute session versus 50 minutes, it drains me more and causes more muscle soreness, but I don&#8217;t get extra results in terms of strength or muscle gains. Three hours of properly structured strength training per week is enough to get the benefits.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;There was initially research from Brad Schoenfeld&#8217;s camp suggesting three drivers of hypertrophy: mechanical tension, metabolic stress, and muscle damage. Later research revised this, concluding that mechanical tension is the primary driver, and muscle damage isn&#8217;t a mechanism in its own right but comes along when you apply enough tension.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">However, excessive volume digs a hole that you must recover from before building new tissue\u2014you&#8217;re busy healing and replacing damaged tissue. I&#8217;ve found that the minimum effective dose approach, though initially frightening because it feels like being lazy, is remarkably efficient. Going to the gym and doing just six work sets before leaving can yield impressive progress.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">For example, doing one set of dumbbell bench press with as many reps as possible, then trying to add a rep each workout until reaching a target, then increasing weight and starting over\u2014the progress from such a simple system with 20-30 minute workouts is incredible.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">For beginners, there&#8217;s value in doing more sets to learn movements properly, perhaps three or four warm-up sets followed by one or two challenging sets pushing to failure. But looking back, I wish I could reclaim hours of pointless volume in the gym and reallocate that time to conditioning or literally anything else.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>JAY:<\/strong> &#8220;It&#8217;s good learning though. When I explain to coaches how I&#8217;ve made progress on low volume, I have to acknowledge that knowing exactly where your volume and intensity limits are comes with experience. People training three or four days a week might compensate for not approaching the appropriate intensity threshold by adding more volume.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">A good experiment I did once was asking: if you only had one working set per exercise, how much would you commit to that one set? This helps you discover how hard you can actually train in a single set. Many people, especially in commercial gyms, do a lot of volume within their comfort zone\u2014they&#8217;re taking a zone two approach to resistance training, but a resistance training approach to their cardio by doing sprints.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">I see young trainers in the gym five days a week, but the biggest hindrance is recovery\u2014whether it&#8217;s sleep, diet, or insufficient aerobic conditioning. They&#8217;d be better using that extra time to address those factors rather than adding another day of training.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">What we&#8217;ve earned through experience is knowing which exercises give the most bang for your buck\u2014carrying the most tonnage and stimulation\u2014which many beginners haven&#8217;t figured out yet. We also recover quickly between sets because we&#8217;re aerobically fit.&#8221;<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>PETE:<\/strong> &#8220;That&#8217;s a great point about exercise selection. Many fitness-minded clients overvalue performance in key lifts like bench press, deadlift, and squats, thinking those are the answer to their goals. But personally, if I were to follow a powerlifting program, I&#8217;d break down within a week\u2014my deadlift is weak, my back squat isn&#8217;t great, and my bench press is just okay.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The thing is, I don&#8217;t need to do any of those lifts in the traditional powerlifting way. For lower body, I prioritize single-leg work and heavy split squats, particularly front-loaded split squats, because that setup keeps my lower back and hips healthy while still allowing heavy loading. I rarely do conventional deadlifts anymore\u2014I&#8217;ll do Romanian deadlifts and go heavy on those, but not deadlifts from the floor.<\/p><p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">It&#8217;s about finding what works for your body and goals, rather than forcing yourself into a training template that might not be appropriate for you.&#8221;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ea44b2 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\"

Fong at ATP has been an amazing experience and the best investment I\u2019ve made for my health. Thanks to his professional guidance and expertise, I lost 5kg in just 3 months - after my 2nd pregnancy, I didn\u2019t imagine it was possible! Now I feel incredibly strong, energized, and healthy. \ud83e\udd29 my left knee pain is also completely gone by week 4!\n\nWhat 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.\n\nIf you want a top-tier trainer who motivates with kindness and expertise, look no further than Ken at ATP. \ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffc\ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffc\ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffc<\/p><button type=\"button\" class=\"atp-rv-rm\">Read more<\/button><\/article><article class=\"atp-rv-card\"><div class=\"atp-rv-top\"><span class=\"atp-rv-av\" style=\"background:#9c4f6e\" aria-hidden=\"true\">N<\/span><div><p class=\"atp-rv-n\">Ng Yin Ling<\/p><p class=\"atp-rv-d\">1 October 2026<\/p><\/div><span class=\"atp-rv-g\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Google review\"><\/span><\/div><span class=\"atp-st\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"5 out of 5 stars\"><\/span><p class=\"atp-rv-t\">I\u2019ve been training with Jasper for a few months now and I\u2019m really happy with the progress we\u2019ve 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.\n\nI 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\u2019m doing outside the gym too, from my food choices to staying consistent with training. I\u2019ve definitely put in the effort myself, but having that structure and accountability has made it much easier to stay on track.\n\nI 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.\n\nIt\u2019s 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\u2019m excited to keep getting stronger!<\/p><button type=\"button\" class=\"atp-rv-rm\">Read more<\/button><\/article><article class=\"atp-rv-card\"><div class=\"atp-rv-top\"><span class=\"atp-rv-av\" style=\"background:#7b5ea7\" aria-hidden=\"true\">O<\/span><div><p class=\"atp-rv-n\">Olivia Chong<\/p><p class=\"atp-rv-d\">19 September 2026<\/p><\/div><span class=\"atp-rv-g\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Google review\"><\/span><\/div><span class=\"atp-st\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"5 out of 5 stars\"><\/span><p class=\"atp-rv-t\">\u200b8 weeks in with John David and and counting - he\u2019s an energetic, encouraging trainer who gives just the right amount of push for my fitness and diet goals without overwhelming me.

She is approachable, encouraging, and makes even the most challenging sessions genuinely fun. Beyond the workouts, I\u2019ve learned so much about sustainable nutrition\u2014she was always just a message away whenever I needed guidance on dining out, keeping me consistent and accountable without ever feeling overwhelmed.\n\nFor the first time, I\u2019ve 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!<\/p><button type=\"button\" class=\"atp-rv-rm\">Read more<\/button><\/article><article class=\"atp-rv-card atp-mo\"><div class=\"atp-rv-top\"><span class=\"atp-rv-av\" style=\"background:#a0632a\" aria-hidden=\"true\">S<\/span><div><p class=\"atp-rv-n\">Shravan Ramaswamy<\/p><p class=\"atp-rv-d\">3 September 2026<\/p><\/div><span class=\"atp-rv-g\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Google review\"><\/span><\/div><span class=\"atp-st\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"5 out of 5 stars\"><\/span><p class=\"atp-rv-t\">I\u2019ve 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\u2019s really helped me become much more comfortable and confident in the gym.\n\nWith 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\u2019m 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\u2019ve always felt like I\u2019m improving at the right pace rather than being pushed too quickly.\n\nWhat makes Mike stand out is how enjoyable he makes every session. He always brings great energy and is genuinely fun to train with \u2014 sometimes to the point where I almost forget how tough the workout actually is.\n\nHe\u2019s also very attentive and adapts each session depending on how I\u2019m feeling. He regularly checks in on my energy levels, adjusts the routine when I\u2019m having a lower-energy day, and knows when to push me harder when I\u2019m feeling stronger. He\u2019s very motivating while still making sure the training feels manageable and sustainable.\n\nMike has also been very flexible with scheduling, which has made it much easier for me to stay consistent. Overall, he\u2019s knowledgeable, motivating, patient and great to train with. I\u2019ve made far more progress than I expected in a relatively short period of time, and I\u2019d definitely recommend him, particularly to anyone who might be new to the gym.<\/p><button type=\"button\" class=\"atp-rv-rm\">Read more<\/button><\/article><article class=\"atp-rv-card atp-mo\"><div class=\"atp-rv-top\"><span class=\"atp-rv-av\" style=\"background:#4f7942\" aria-hidden=\"true\">P<\/span><div><p class=\"atp-rv-n\">Pei Ting Lee<\/p><p class=\"atp-rv-d\">1 September 2026<\/p><\/div><span class=\"atp-rv-g\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Google review\"><\/span><\/div><span class=\"atp-st\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"5 out of 5 stars\"><\/span><p class=\"atp-rv-t\">Coach Danny is very attentive and genuinely cares about his clients.

I honestly wasn\u2019t sure I could get there when I first started, so achieving it in half the time I expected has been incredibly rewarding. I\u2019ve genuinely never felt stronger or better in my life.\n\nDanial 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.\n\nHe\u2019s 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\u2019s genuinely funny and easy to get along with too, which makes a huge difference when you\u2019re seeing your trainer multiple times a week! I actually look forward to training, even when I know he\u2019s about to put me through something brutal \ud83d\ude02\n\nCouldn\u2019t 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!\n\nI\u2019m honestly so happy with how far I\u2019ve come. I never thought I\u2019d achieve my goal this quickly, and I\u2019m the fittest and most toned I\u2019ve felt in years.

In threee months - despite spending three weeks travelling- I have lost 10kg, overcome my shoulder issue, and become leaner and stronger..\nI strongly believe that my results are a shared achievement.\nI 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.\nMost importantly, his belief in what I am capable of, has helped me become more confident in myself.\n\nATP provides a highly professional, supportive environment with genuinely friendly staff and having the right coach makes all the difference.\n\nI 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, \u201cTrust the process\u201d -  something I have definitely learned to appreciate along the way.\n\nSo yes, he may be the \u201ctrouble of my life\u201d \ud83e\udd23but he is also an exceptional coach and someone I trully respect.\nI hope that, as his Greek client, I have made his coaching journey equally memorable.\nI am excited to continue training with him towards my next goals.!<\/p><button type=\"button\" class=\"atp-rv-rm\">Read more<\/button><\/article><article class=\"atp-rv-card atp-off\"><div class=\"atp-rv-top\"><span class=\"atp-rv-av\" style=\"background:#5b6bbf\" aria-hidden=\"true\">V<\/span><div><p class=\"atp-rv-n\">Vilvum Ramu<\/p><p class=\"atp-rv-d\">19 August 2026<\/p><\/div><span class=\"atp-rv-g\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Google review\"><\/span><\/div><span class=\"atp-st\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"5 out of 5 stars\"><\/span><p class=\"atp-rv-t\">I joined ATP weighing 80 kg with approximately 32% body fat.

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.\n\nThis 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.\n\nMy transformation is not only about the numbers. With his guidance, I have become healthier, stronger, more disciplined and much more confident in myself.\n\nI am truly grateful to KumaraVel and ATP for supporting me throughout this life-changing journey.

But Michael is both patient and knowledgeable. He explains each exercise thoroughly to me and is very encouraging.\n\nI also really appreciate his realistic approach to the meal plan. I don&#x27;t feel micromanaged, and working with him on my nutrition plan has enabled to lose weight and subsequently build muscle while still enjoying food.\n\nI 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).\n\nI joined ATP because I wanted a lifestyle change, and not a quick (unsustainable) fix.
