Read Grace's Transformation Journey

What is your name, age, and profession?

My name is Grace. I am 31 years old. I work as a cloud growth manager for a cybersecurity company.

How much weight and body fat have you lost?

So far, I have lost about 10 kg body weight and 11% body fat since training with Afshan at TSquared Lab.

Since Grace started the training, her energy levels are very high
“I have a very stressful job, and I used to have extremely low energy levels, but since I started training, my energy levels are very high.”

What is the best thing that has happened to you after you joined TSquared Lab?

So, since I started training at TSquared Lab, the two best things which; I have learned are consistency and knowledge. And you know, Afshan asks me to come 2-3 times a week; so that I can keep up with the training, and when I go home, Afshan will always tell me what to eat; and what not to do. She tells me what can be added to the diet and what I need to cut down on. And I have incorporated that essence into my lifestyle, and I think it is a complete lifestyle change for me.

What’s your driving force in TSquared Lab?

So, I always had a very active lifestyle. I like dancing, I love going out on hiking and all these things. But by the end of the day, it’s really that gym environment and culture that you need because this person (trainer) is accountable for your growth. Sometimes, you know, when you are doing things on your own, you might take a day off, and you might cut some corners somewhere, but with the culture by your side you really must know that you are responsible for yourself, and someone is always encouraging you and motivating you, so I think, that’s really the most important factor. Another thing I want to say is I have always been very active, but I never really achieved the results that I have now outside of TSquared Lab. So, I really encourage everyone to give this a try.

What were the main challenges or struggles before joining TSquared Lab?

I think there were two major challenges. One is food, because I love to eat, and my friends are very social, so we have lunches and dinners every week. The second challenge is, in the beginning I had this misconception of being a bulky girl, but when we started training, I understood that you don’t get to the bulky part that fast; people work hard to get to the defined state if you want that for yourself.

Grace's workouts at TSquared Lab are comprehensive along with compound movements aimed to lose weight
“My workouts at TSquared Lab are comprehensive along with compound movements aimed to lose weight. Afshan adds a few small muscle exercises, to make me realise the presence of those muscles which I feel I don’t use in day-to-day life.”

What was your challenge while training?

While training, my biggest challenge was not knowing what to do when you are in a gym environment, and sometimes it can be very daunting, especially when you are a beginner, because when you go to a gym, there is so much equipment, and you don’t know which ones to use. I think having a coach has its benefits, as they are teaching you the correct posture, the technique, and they are helping you where to focus while doing the exercise, so I think by the end of the day, it is vital to have someone professional to help you along the journey.

What is your proudest achievement so far in TSquared Lab?

For me it is weight loss, my original goal was to reach 58kgs, and so far, I have smashed it. I am currently at 55kgs. And I, will continue to smash more goals. Another thing that I have noticed is along with my physical changes, my confidence level has also changed and increased. I have a very stressful job, and I used to have extremely low energy levels, but since I started training, my energy levels are very high. Every day when I get up, I feel pumped up and very energetic, and ready to take on whatever my day has to offer.

How are the workouts at TSquared Lab?

Yes, I think the workouts are comprehensive, so we do a lot of compound movements to help me lose weight, also we do small muscle exercises; so that I can move even those muscles that I do not realize I use in our day-to-day lives. The accuracy of getting the posture right is the most important, with the coach right there, she tells me this is the part you should be feeling pressure on. Those are essential tips that have helped me in my journey.

Having a personal trainer in front of you while training is very beneficial
“Having a Personal Trainer in front of you while training is very beneficial, as they correct you on your posture, as well as tell you exactly which part of your body must feel pressure. These tips help in progressing in the transformation journey.”

Which body parts are you most proud of right now?

I think for us girls, it is important that we have the abs, the toned shoulders, and the arms, and those are what I have seen changed a lot in me, since I have started working with Afshan.

How has your diet changed?

I think that the food is really the challenge for me, because I eat out a lot, and most of the time I didn’t know what type of food to eat and with the help of Afshan I really changed my diet completely. I used to send her pictures, and she would tell me how many calories there were in my meals, so over time I learned what kind of food is good for my health and my training.

What do your friends and family say about you when they see you?

They are surprised, especially the friends who I haven’t met in a long time. For example, I met up with a group of friends last week and; they were like, Oh my god, we cannot imagine how much weight you have lost.” And they started asking me about my secrets, how many times I train, and what food I eat. And I think there has been a positive reinforcement on my transformation journey.

Would you recommend TSquared Lab? What would you say about your overall view of TSquared Lab?

I recommend TSquared Lab to all my friends and family members who want to give it a try. I think it is that holistic experience; because the training part is really at the core of my transformation, but on top of that, I am getting a lot of knowledge about my food, what I should be eating, and how my lifestyle can be changed, in different ways. Also, I have tried massages here, which are amazing. And I recommend everyone to do it. Another thing I like about TSquared Lab is the culture; and the people around. Everyone is friendly, so you have a good and pleasant experience when you are training. It's not just like getting in and getting out. Lastly, I want to thank my coach for bringing me on this journey and changing my life.

KEY TO Grace’s SUCCESS

1. Grace educated herself:

Grace’s challenge with going to the gym as a beginner was the overwhelming equipment. For someone new to the gym, it gets too much to handle especially when they have little to zero knowledge about how and what to use to achieve their goals. Coach Afshan came to Grace’s rescue; she taught her the correct posture and technique of using the equipment; to avoid injury and increase the effectiveness of exercise.

2. Grace was consistent:

Grace consistently followed every advice Afshan gave her. Be it about what food to eat, how much to eat, what more to add, etc., how many times to train a week and at what endurance level to train. These small changes brought a huge change for Grace.

3. Grace had support from her Personal Trainer:

Afshan had clear ideas from Grace regarding her expectation from TSquared Lab. Moreover, her difficulties were even more precise. Therefore, it was pivotal for Afshan to educate Grace on what and how much she can eat, considering her social eating habits. She had to be trained on postures; to remove the overwhelming feeling when she gets in the gym. Afshan had to be friend more than a trainer to make Grace comfortable and; clarify for misconceptions and then move to the transformation part. Afshan has supported Grace in every capacity she could to help Grace gain her older confidence with weight loss.

4. Grace’s challenges were well defined:

Grace had complete awareness of her challenges, which made her focus clear. She could pass on the similar clarity of the goals to her Coach, which could then customise a program for Grace. Social eating habits and the misconception of a bulky body due to workout were the major blocks. Furthermore, no knowledge of equipment and posture was an additional barrier. Her Coach resolved one issue at a time, giving her fair understanding of the reality and resolution on certain habits.

5. Grace was keen to train from a fitness facility:

Grace’s thought that training alone at home doesn’t get discipline and accountability; was true for her and her overview towards fitness. She wanted a gym environment and professional support, which she received from TSquared Lab. She gained a training structure to follow. And she was supported by her personal trainer Afshan, which brought in the transformation for her.
