37-year-old Junjie and his family were rocked after his brother was hospitalised from a stroke.
The incident set the alarm bells ringing for Junjie. He quickly realised the risks associated with his recent weight gain and poor lifestyle habits.
With a long family history of high cholesterol, he consulted his doctor for a check-up. The results showed he was in the danger zone himself, with extremely high cholesterol levels.
Father to a two-year-old girl, Junjie knew he needed to change. He wanted a scientific approach to weight loss with a proven, measurable outcome.
Working with UP FITNESS gave him the accountability, expertise and routine he needed to reduce his cholesterol – which his doctors are delighted with. Thirteen weeks is all it took to lose 10kg and completely transform his body composition.
Not only is Junjie’s health improving, but he now feels UP FITNESS’s ‘gold standard’ service has helped him understand how to maintain good health moving forward.
“I'm delighted that my transformation has helped me reduce my cholesterol over such a short period of time.
“Even my doctors commented that it's a very good improvement for just 13 weeks.
“I have also developed so many new habits that have helped me. I feel sharper, lighter and confident I can take care of my body moving forward. UP FITNESS gave me the tools to move forward with a healthy life.”
Here, Junjie speaks about how his trainer equipped him with invaluable lesser-known nutritional advice. Plus, he uncovers the training secrets which delivered results in just 13 weeks.
What was your motivation to start training with UP FITNESS?
My motivation to start training with UP FITNESS was I realised the importance of personal health and how it can affect me. My brother, who is two years older than me, suffered a stroke that affected my family a lot.
At a similar time, I got a health report, and it actually showed my cholesterol levels were extremely high. My doctor was adamant that I needed to go on medication, but I spoke to him and said, “give me three months to work out my health.” That was the motivation I needed to take control of my health.
What impact has your transformation had on your cholesterol levels?
I'm delighted that my transformation has helped me reduce my cholesterol over such a short period of time.
Even my doctors commented that it's a very good improvement for just 13 weeks. My trainer has adjusted my diet along the way and the training program has really helped me. I felt my cholesterol was getting better, which was cemented by my health report.
Overall, how has this transformation affected your life?
I have dropped around 9kg in weight throughout my transformation and gained an incredible amount of muscle mass. I have also developed so many new habits that have helped me, such as eating wisely and exercising well.
All these new habits have changed me. I feel sharper, lighter and confident I can take care of my body moving forward. UP FITNESS gave me the tools to move forward with a healthy life.
How did your wife and daughter feel after seeing the changes you made to your lifestyle?
My wife shared the same joy as me. She has noticed the physical changes and my improved emotional state throughout my transformation.
She said that I am the fittest I’ve ever been since we got married five years ago. She’s also happy that I can start to wear clothes in my wardrobe that never used to fit me. Overall, she has told me that I’m a happier person and much more cheerful.
My daughter is only two, so she doesn’t understand what I’m doing. But I now have days off and feel a lot fitter, so I spend a lot more time with my family.
How would you describe the experience of working with your UP FITNESS trainer?
I would describe my trainer as a very dedicated and passionate person. There are a lot of people out there, for example, celebrities and fitness influencers, that share training tips and tricks.
Sometimes you feel lost and don’t know where to start. That’s where my trainer came in to help me filter out all this information and teach me what works best for my body.
He made me do exercises which worked well for me and made personal adjustments to my diet based on how my body reacted. That is something you don’t get anywhere else and adds the most value, the personal approach.
Would you recommend UP FITNESS to people looking to transform their physique?
UP FITNESS is gold standard. Health is precious, and in some cases, if you don’t fix it now, the effects can be severe. So, I would suggest to people interested in UP FITNESS to just talk to them and find out more about what they can do. They’re very friendly and will guide you through what you need to do.
