Hi there, my name is Bala Murali Shanmugam (member no : 0110157201). I have been a Fitness First member for about 8 months now and would like to share my experience. When I enrolled to become a member of Fitness First in August 2009, my weight was 91Kgs and I was within the obese range on the BMI scale. I have been a sedentary person for almost 15 years and was rather skeptical that I will be able to achieve a certain or any weight loss at all. But for some reason, as spontaneous I have always been on all matters, I just enrolled with Fitness First and started on a rather intense weight loss programme. At first, the feeling of doubt did dawn on me. But my whole perception changed after my 3 free sessions of "BODYFIRST®" programme.
I was really perked up with confidence that I will be able to achieve my ideal weight from then on.
The main reason for this would be my Personal Trainer M.Saju Balakrishnan. After my 3 free "BODYFIRST®" sessions with M.Saju, I immediately signed up for another 10 sessions of PT with him. Of course it was really tough at the beginning but with M.Saju’s motivation and guide, I managed through both physically and emotionally. After observing some good gains (especially on weight loss) completing the initial 10 sessions, I signed up for another 30 sessions of PT with M.Saju. As always, he has been such a motivator and guide throughout. Of course, I noticed massive improvement on my weight loss with some muscle gains. I am now almost completing my second round of 30 PT sessions with M.Saju and am extremely satisfied with the results achieved.
I have to mention here that M.Saju is an asset to FF. He his very focused and very results driven. Any Fitness Center should be proud to have a personal trainer such as him and FF is no exception for having the best. Keep up the good work M.Saju.
As for FF SJ itself, I am very happy with the facility and the environment. There are some improvements that can be done but I would like to comment on that once we have moved to the new premises. The staffs are also very friendly and courteous. Please keep up the good work.
As for myself, today I weigh 73Kgs and am at a normal person’s bodyweight on the BMI scale. I hope to improve on my muscle gains now and am confident that FF can help me achieve it.
Thanks Fitness First Subang Jaya for all that you have done and keep up the good work.
