MUSCLE & FITNESS CENTRE

Since a very young age, I never used to exercise – sure, I played rugby in high school, but I didn’t have to run around much as a prop. I also followed a very unhealthy diet, exchanging my fruits and vegetables for sweets and junkfood. Binge eating was part of my daily routine and drinking happened most weekends.

In around July 2016, I went through a really tough time in my life. I thought that losing weight would’ve fixed my problems – which it didn’t, but it surely made life a lot better. I decided to start my journey by only counting calories (not yet knowing about counting macros) & restricted myself to eating a mere 1500 calories a day.

After losing my first 10kg’s, I hit a plateau and my weight-loss came to an abrupt halt. I felt discouraged and didn’t know what to do. Thankfully, I remembered that my good friend, Tiaan Visagie had recently become a personal trainer and so I decided to turn to him to help me lose weight and build muscle in a healthy, sustainable way.

After following the training program that Tiaan had set out for me, as well as a healthy and strict diet, I’ve managed to lose over 30kg’s and 18% body fat. I feel better than I’ve ever felt before and my confidence has skyrocketed! Even though I’m not where I want to be yet, but I’m sure that by following the path that I’m currently on, I’ll be there in no time!
