Francko's Body Success Story at his 40's Chat on WhatsApp, TSquared Lab

Francko Shum, a 40-year-old professional in the tech industry, faced significant challenges in his fitness journey. Between a demanding career and difficulty dedicating time to exercise, Francko found it hard to maintain a consistent workout routine. His struggles with proper form and lifting weights on his own only added to his frustration. Determined to make a change, Francko joined TSquared Lab, where the expert guidance of his personal trainer helped him achieve remarkable results in just three months.

“When I saw the facilities and the equipment, I decided to join TSquared Lab.”

Overcoming Initial Challenges: Form, Time, and Dedication

When Francko first joined TSquared Lab, he was aware that his busy schedule made it difficult for him to commit to regular workouts. Additionally, his inability to lift weights with the correct form was holding him back from achieving his fitness goals. However, his trainer quickly addressed these issues by correcting his form and pushing him to his limits, helping Francko unlock his true potential.

Reflecting on this, Francko shared, "It was very difficult for me to dedicate time to go to the gym on my own. I was unable to lift weights, and my form was not correct. My Coach at TSquared Lab corrected me and showed me the right form. Also, he pushed me to the limit."

Transformative Results: Strength and Proportionality

One of the most significant milestones in Francko’s journey was his incredible progress in strength. His proudest achievement was increasing his deadlift from 100 kg to an impressive 140 kg in just three months. Recalling his initial scepticism , Francko said, "When the Coach told me, 'You are going to hit 140kg,' I was sceptical. But with his motivation and push, when I achieved that 140kg, I realised there is no limit to what you can do as long as you have the right person and the right gym to achieve that."

In addition to his strength gains, Francko also focused on improving the proportionality of his physique. He had always struggled to gain mass on his lower body, but with targeted training and motivation from his coach, he was able to achieve a more balanced and proportional look. "With the trainer’s motivation, I have worked a lot more on my lower body, and it has become a lot more proportional to my upper body," Francko proudly shared.

Before starting with TSquared Lab, Francko always struggled with devoting his time to the gym. He was not able to lift weights properly and neither was he able to focus on his form.

TSquared Lab helped him design a program in such a way that within 3 months of training, he lost 8% body fat while gaining strength and correcting his form.

Francko’s personal best was a 100kg deadlift but within 3 months he was able to do a 140kg deadlift something which he is extremely proud of.
