Burnston lost 9kg and got
sharper under pressure.<\/h1>\n

Burnston is a 34 year old finance professional who had always played sport but never followed a real programme. Seven months at ATP took 9kg off him, cut his body fat by 11 points, and left him stronger and sharper, at training and at work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

The CEO of his own life<\/h2>\n

Burnston, 34, works in the markets, where the pressure rarely lets up. He came to ATP with a clear reason: if life was not going to get any easier, then looking after his mind and body had to become a priority rather than an afterthought.<\/p>\n

I am the CEO of my life and I know life won’t get any easier. So it is my top priority to take care of my mind and my body, and to ensure I continue to be the best version of myself.Burnston<\/small><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

An athlete who never had a system<\/h2>\n

He was no stranger to sport. Over the years he had played hockey and football and raced dragon boats, but he had never followed a structured programme built to change his physique. Seven months ago that changed.<\/p>\n

I used to be into hockey, football and dragon boating, but never really followed a comprehensive fitness program to get myself into shape. My trainer and the support network at ATP have been phenomenal at guiding me through my journey.Burnston<\/small><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"Burnston<\/figure>\n

The result<\/h2>\n

Over seven months of consistent, properly guided training, the numbers moved. Burnston lost 9kg and dropped his body fat by 11 percentage points. In his own words, the results speak for themselves.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Weight:<\/b> down 9kg<\/li>\n
  • Body fat:<\/b> down 11 percentage points<\/li>\n
  • Time:<\/b> 7 months<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    \"Burnston<\/figure>\n

    Sharper when it counts<\/h2>\n

    The change he values most is not only physical. Through a stretch of volatile markets, the discipline of training gave him a way to stay steady under pressure.<\/p>\n

    I now feel much stronger, much sharper, whether I am at training or at work, even when things get tough. The past few years have been challenging across the markets, and my transformation journey has helped me train my mind and my body to weather the storm.Burnston<\/small><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
