Congratulations to April’s client of the month, Vicky, who lost a huge 20kg and nearly 20% body fat in just 8 months with UP!
Vicky had both trained in gyms previously and with personal trainers, although found them to be “boring” and “demotivating”.
Although, the experience at UP Singapore was very different: “UP turned my pre-conceived ideas and previous experiences upside down”.
Now Vicky enjoys training and can keep up with her energetic toddler on a daily basis.
What was the obstacle that would have prevented you from starting the process?
UP gave me that extra bit of push and motivation to embark on the journey
“I found my biggest obstacle to be my state of mind. The wrong state of mind makes you focus on all the excuses about why you are failing in your diet, skipping exercise and are generally unhealthy.
Once I was in the right state of mind, I knew I was ready to take on the tough journey, stop finding excuses and start working on improving my health, body and mind.
UP gave me that extra bit of push and motivation to embark on the journey – the UP clients became my role models and helped me realise that I can achieve the same amazing transformation.”
What did you find as a result of training with UP?
“I’ve had personal trainers at other gyms before, I’ve had gym memberships before. I’ve always found gyms boring and PTs demotivating – we would spend the first 20 min of an hour’s training session “warming up” on a treadmill and chit chatting, whilst the remaining 40 min would be extremely uninspired and not very helpful.”

UP turned my pre-conceived ideas and previous experiences upside down
“UP turned my pre-conceived ideas and previous experiences upside down. Now, gym is never boring, and training with Raymond is inspiring and super motivating.
The community at UP is also amazing – it feels like a family and I look forward to every session, seeing the progress of other clients and getting high-fives from the other trainers. Feeling stronger after each sessions, achieving personal bests, looking at your progress photos and having a strong coach, cheerleader, supporter and motivator in your PT – that’s something I don’t think any other gym can offer.
I remember when I went to UP for the first time to get a tour of the gym and its philosophy, Chris told me that he will pair me with someone that matches my personality and we will be on a journey together, as a team. I can’t even begin to express how true that statement was and how important it is for a successful transformation.”
What specific benefit did you like most about your journey with UP?
I am healthy, away from all sorts of obese, diabetes-danger zones which I was in when I started
- My body fat % has dropped from 42.5% to 23.9%
- I’ve lost 20 kg
- I’m not on a diet, I have simply changed my way of eating and I absolutely love it
- I look forward to exercising and feel happy and energized after workouts
- I am less stressed and more productive at work
I have developed a very positive attitude towards my body – it’s not about being slim and what number the scales are on, it’s about being healthy, lean and strong, about sculpting your body the way you want it to be and enjoying every minute in doing so! I believe weights training and all information Raymond gives me about the implications of each exercise, using food as fuel, is the key to this amazing mindset transformation.”
What three other benefits have you taken away from your journey with UP?
- “I can run after my very energetic toddler without getting tired ☺
- I am developing passion for food and exercise and I can’t wait to become leaner!
- I am not obsessive about what I eat or how much I exercise – it’s a balanced lifestyle that allows me to still have a busy career and quality time with my family, I think this is key to having sustainable results. Raymond gives me a lot of useful tips on how to achieve that.”
Would you recommend UP? If so, why?
I don’t have the words to express how much I recommend UP
UP changed my life. I would not have been able to embark on a journey like this on my own and any other attempt was unsustainable.
I don’t have the words to express how much I recommend UP. I believe the three most important aspects that make UP different from other gyms are:
• The community of clients and PTs – all amazing, all supportive and all highly inspiring. Always a positive vibe when you train which gives you that extra buzz you sometimes need.
• Your own PT – trust Chris to choose the right person to motivate you and be part of your journey. Your PT is not there just for the 60 min at the gym, he/she supports you throughout the day with advice on diet, lifestyle and keeping up the momentum. Your results are your PT’s results and they all take such pride in this.
• It’s all tailored to your needs. In the last few weeks, Raymond has been tweaking my diet 4 times just so we can achieve our next goal along our journey and push the body a bit further then it wants to go. It’s not a copy/paste exercise from client to client, it’s so personal!”
Is there anything else you’d like to add?
“Thank you Raymond! You are my hero!”
- We show you the best, we don't show you the worst.
- We show you people who follow the plans, not those who are all talk.
- We show you those who inspire even us with their commitment to their results.
- You cannot get results exactly like these. You are unique and that means you can only get your own best possible results.
- Your results are a function of time spent following the plan; your genetic response to the right exercise and diet program; how hard you train; how consistently you come to the gym; how disciplined you are with your diet; & your starting point.
- Oftentimes the lower your starting point (poor fitness, terrible body composition) the better your results.
- We cannot do the work for you and the results you see here are a testament to the work ethic of our clients.
-
Our reputation is that we are the best trainers in the world for helping you to unlock your potential, & we can lead you to the door, give you the key, even turn the handle and push the door open, but we cannot walk through it for you.
In the end the result is down to you.
