Joan’s Success Story
Joan’s Success Story
Joan, a seasoned Human Resource Professional, found herself at a crossroads as she reached the age of 50. The pandemic had taken a toll on her health, leaving her feeling sluggish, uncomfortable, and trapped in a sedentary lifestyle. The prolonged lockdowns and long hours of desk work exacerbated her physical discomfort, leading to persistent ear and neck pain. Joan knew it was time to make a significant change.
"One takeaway from the pandemic for me is that I should look after myself, and a healthy lifestyle is more important than anything else. That’s why I signed up for TSquared Lab."
Before joining TSquared Lab, Joan struggled with maintaining a healthy lifestyle amidst the demands of her job. The pandemic intensified these challenges, as she spent more than 10 hours a day sitting at her desk, staring at a screen, and feeling the physical consequences of inactivity. Despite her efforts to exercise on her own, Joan found it difficult to achieve the results she desired. She realised she needed professional guidance, not just for workouts but also for nutrition and this made her sign up for the TSquared Lab program, she says, "I tried a few exercises, but they didn’t work out. So, I felt I should do something else. I needed to seek professional advice not only to work out but also for food and nutrition."
Joan’s journey at TSquared Lab began with a personalised training program designed by her coach, Afshan. From the very first sessions, Afshan assessed Joan's strengths and areas that needed more attention, she crafted a training plan that was specifically tailored to Joan’s unique needs, ensuring that the exercises were challenging yet safe. Afshan’s expertise allowed Joan to progress steadily, pushing her limits while carefully monitoring her form to prevent injury.
Joan shares, "After a few sessions, Afshan realised where specifically I needed to start with, where’s strength in my body, and where she needed to pay more attention in training. She designed a training program for me, pushed me up, and at the same time looked out for me to make sure I didn't get injured. I am very, very happy about that."
Joan decided to seek professional help during the pandemic period when she felt lethargic after sitting in front of her screen for 10 hours straight and working nonstop.
Coach Afshan designed a unique program for Joan where she could immediately differentiate between her areas of strength and weakness.
With the guidance at TSquared Lab Joan was able to see the difference immediately and lost 10 kg weight and more than 13% body fat during the entire transformation journey.

Empower yourself with valuable resources related to training, nutrition, and well-being along with expert advice from world’s leading personal trainers helping you to address your unique fitness and health goals.
Longevity is the pursuit of living a longer, healthier life by making conscious choices that promote overall well-being.
Losing weight can often feel like an uphill battle, even when you are putting in your best efforts. It’s frustrating, disheartening, demotivating, and sometimes downright confusing. You might be eating right, and exercising regularly, yet the scale refuses to budge.
Consistency in training forms the bedrock of any successful fitness journey. It’s the steady rhythm of effort and dedication that leads individuals toward their goals. Amongst the myriad of considerations in crafting an effective training regimen or finding the right personal trainer, one question often looms large: How many days a week should you train?
Mental well-being is a complicated subject. Researching the topic for a while will net you countless opinions, tactics, and ancient Chinese secrets for how to elevate your well-being and lead a rich, fulfilling life.
In a fast-paced world filled with demands and distractions, one cornerstone of well-being often takes a backseat – SLEEP.
Reps In Reserve (RIR) are the number of reps or repetitions you can accomplish before hitting a technical failure or before you miss a lift. And technical failure means that you cannot do another rep without proper form. Therefore, RIR is an effective tool to measure the intensity of your workout.
During an exercise set, time under tension (TUT) means the amount of time a muscle is put under strain in a particular exercise. With UT workouts, each phase of the workout is extended, which results in longer workout sets.
When it comes to workouts, you need to consider various factors to create a workout plan. For example, to become stronger and how your training impacts your body. That is you need to choose the right exercise, and lift the right weight, do the right number of reps, complete the set, obtain the proper rest, etc.
Have you ever found yourself stuck with your training? You’re hitting the gym consistently, putting in the effort, and doing your best, but you can’t seem to make progress toward your goals?
With the steadily growing popularity of courses, group classes, and online coaching, personal training might seem like a lost art, but that is far from the truth.
Like most people interested in building muscle, you’ve probably asked others what the best repetition range is for the goal.
