Many snuffed and thought that I was never going to make anywhere on stage, arm with fat thighs, big tummy, saggy arms and a huge determination, I told myself, its all or nothing. After 7 months of proper training and sticking to a wholesome diet under the guidance of my personal trainer Thara, I had gotten into the best shape of my life and competed in a bikini physique contest.

The after pictures shown are the end result of the 7-month journey with Thara. To date, we are still working closely to bring out the next best version of me for future contests. I could never have done this alone, with the limited knowledge I had. Getting Thara to help achieve my dream physique and crush my fitness goal is one of the best decisions I have made. Are you ready to crush yours too? And of course, thank you Thara, my super personal trainer!

Dedicated and highly motivating always pushing me for that extra set and rep so that I can constantly improve and challenge myself. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a personal trainer in Singapore.

His favourite line “ if it works, you will see it in 2 weeks, if it doesn’t, we have to change it” And I saw it, for the first time, my tummy area started toning up the way I wanted it, my arms got leaner, my core felt stronger, my back muscles are tighter giving me a better posture, and that was achieved in 3 weeks of training. We trained 3 times a week. Every session was a different set of challenges that he set for me, and he would tweak my diet every week. Some days are high carbs, some days are low carbs, all depending on my energy level and how I feel. His diet plan was for me to eat what I am used to eating, and making small impactful changes. I feel fitter, toner and sexier in so many ways, I am so happy with the changes. Thank you Jovin for helping me achieve what I deem was unachievable and making me feel confident again. You are an awesome personal trainer and I look forward to our next workout.

He was patient, nice and very reasonable. He designed my training program and diet and the workouts we had was fun and full of variety. I was accountable for my food intake and I shared my meals with my trainer and he shared his with me too. I enjoyed the process very much and we even joked about each others food intakes at times. When I ate badly, he would “fine me” with 50 burpees, 100 push ups and 200 squats, all performed without rest. I can never forget the punishment!

Mind muscle connection was key to developing stubborn body parts, which helped greatly in maximising every single training session. I learnt proper lifting form and techniques and how to avoid injuries while training. I could feel my chest muscles hardening up and lines appearing on my abs. I have never seen those before! This journey was not only fulfilling, but has also boosted my self-confidence.

My body started transforming after about 6 weeks of training. My diet was on point, my cardio program was well-balanced without burning off the muscle gains I’ve made, my abs started to show and my body fat percentage was heading towards the single-digit. Each time I looked in the mirror, I only became more motivated, and eventually I was at the best physical version of myself.

My take away is Diet + Training + a Good personal trainer = results.

There are times I look at the mirror now and go, “Is that really me?” But in the process, conquered three vertical marathons (within top 25 percent of finishers), and the Spartan Race. It’s been a great journey, and I’m looking forward to more healthy years to come. If you are serious about a positive change in your life, Jovin will lead you every step of the way with his unweavering and contagious passion and zest for training and life. I have been training with Jovin for 6 years, and I would recommend this talented private personal trainer to anyone looking to change their aesthetics.

Sleep deprivation from work made things worse and my energy level was at its all time low. My wife decided to get me a personal trainer for my birthday, and I had a personal trainer for the very first time in my life. Something that I would ridicule and brush aside as “too expensive and it’s only for very rich people” My personal trainer Jovin laid out a game plan for us, consisting of short term, mid term and long term goals. First 3 weeks was all experimental. Training was fun, progressive and challenging at the same time. His commitment was unbelievable, he would wake up at 6am in the morning to text me and ensure that I do my fasted cardio before breaking fast. All my workouts were recorded and we knew exactly what worked and what didn’t. We used a food log as well to track my macros.

It was an enjoyable journey, very fulfilling, and every session was a new learning experience. Every 4 weeks we measured my body fat % and statistics, and every single measurement was improving. I started sleeping well, I was able to unload my stress onto my workouts. Fast forward to after 6 months, I went from 120kg to 85kg, and most importantly, I have fallen in love with this new lifestyle so much that I am able to sustain my new physique. If you are looking for a trainer in Singapore who knows his stuff, Jovin is your go to fitness trainer.
