Katheryn Chan, 38, Accountant
I have been on the heavier side for most of my adult life, tipping the scale at a max of 94 kg. My dress size was at 4XL.
This affected my health negatively as well as my own self-confidence. I did try my own ways to lose weight such as skipping meals, long distance cycling, but the efforts went in vain. Thanks to Revvo Academy of Wellness, which provide a friendly environment of coaches and community, my life took a significant change.
The Revvo coach, who looked after me, understood the struggles that I was going through, and the encouragement that I need. With proper guidance on nutrition and twice a week of moderate intensity exercises, I managed to lose 25 kg in 9 months.
What kept me going was the coach who followed up with me closely, guiding me on meal plans, educating me on nutrition, as well as the fun and effective group workouts.
I am glad to kickstart my journey at Revvo. Now I am at dress size M going to S. I am looking forward to having the best shape, health and fitness for life, facing each day with energy and great confidence!
Jamie Whenman, 35. Professional Golf Trainer.
Although I knew that having good weight and health was important to me, and that I had sufficient knowledge in nutrition and fitness as I had a degree in Sports Science and Nutrition for weight and health management, I simply lacked the motivation to take necessary actions to get going. I had a gym membership, at one of those with 24 hour access, for the past year. Yet, I seldom used the facilities.
I believe majority of working people with a daily, busy and tiring work schedule, looked forward to get off work and pamper ourselves with comfort food, and to be well-rested for next day’s work. I was no different from the majority.
Within a short period of six months, due to unhealthy eating habits and sedentary lifestyle, my weight ballooned significantly. Concurrently, with the increased in weight, I noticed a dropped in my energy level too. The shirts that I wore for my work tightened. I did not look good as a professional golf trainer.
I decided that I had enough of the current state.
Thanks to Revvo Studio, my inertia ceased. In a span of 1 month, I lost 18 kg. Three things that I discovered about Revvo that was different from other gyms and fitness centres that I had experienced:
1) Their coaches actively engaged their clients and followed up closely on the nutrition intake, which accounted for 80% of the results
2) The community-based environment with fellow Revvo members who inspired with their own transformations, and they enthused you to be focused on the journey
3) “Pocket-friendly” programme that yields results at the cost of good meals for one month at our typical food court
I highly recommend Revvo.
Olivia Marzuki, 38. News Presenter.
Looking good is of high importance to me due to my work nature as I present the news on TV and the small screen does make a person look “5 kg heavier”.
A short period before I came across Revvo, I made time to workout and zumba regularly and also went on OMAD (one meal a day) way to lose some weight. The weight stubbornly remained there.
I was glad that I took up the Revvo programme that assigned me a Coach who guided and taught me on the key principles of weight management which is based on 80% nutrition and 20% exercise.
Every week, I experienced great results as I shaped up, looked sharper on screen and also felt more energised. At Revvo, I had also learnt how to maintain my weight for life!
Very importantly, the Revvo programme is “pocket-friendly” as it does not charge personal trainer rates (which are real high in the market), yet there is a personal Coach assigned to help me achieve my goals. The group workouts are fun and effective as the coaches’ energy and smiles are infectious!
One of the elements that has made me stay with Revvo is the coaches. They really know my needs and are able to facilitate, engage and guide me along to the pace that I am comfortable with. I discovered that they were able to do so because they had walked the same journey before, experienced their own transformation and thus they had the passion in them to want the same and best experience and results for their clients.
They have a slogan, “If I can do it, you can do better!”
Are you ready to Revvo with us?
Eugene Seah, 46. Life Coach.
As a Life Coach, I have to stand in front of my participants to facilitate and engage them during the training and workshops. It is important for me to dress sharp and to have the energy to send positive vibes and be animated to hold their focus.
I was not that very oversized to begin with. But due to a hectic lifestyle and poor eating habits, I started to have a protruding tummy. Soon, I was dissatisfied with the way I looked in slim fit business shirts. I tried exercising to get rid of the tummy, but it did not work.
Thanks to my Revvo Coach, who was passionate in educating me on the science behind weight loss, which is majorly about food intake, and also got me to join the Revvo community for the workout sessions, I got my desired result within 1 month! My slim fit shirts were “fitting” again. I knew I had achieved something when my workshop participants told me that I looked good in the shirt and jacket!
Working out at Revvo is something that I look forward to. The coaches are friendly, always ensuring that the participants have fun, full of smiles and yet they have a great effective “sweat-out” workout session. Although all are group-based workouts, the coaches are able to personalise each exercise to the fitness and functional level of each individual. This ensures that all workouts are able to meet each individual’s needs, comfort level and pace.
Effectiveness, safety, assurance, and fun are the key elements found here.
I would think that “Revvo doesn’t sell sweat, Revvo sells Results”.
I must say that Revvo is a great partner to have in my lifelong wellness journey.
Sudhir Nandiga, 46. Technology Risk Control Specialist.
My work hours involved working across time zones and was sedentary. This had taken a toll on my energy levels, as well as health and fitness. My first thinking was to engage a Personal Trainer, which was what many of my peers did. I was glad that I stumbled upon Revvo Academy, which has programmes which are way more affordable, and yet able to give results that I desired.
The programmes at Revvo were designed to keep a balance, and not being overly aggressive. And I loved the vast choices of programmes that made me stay out of the monotony, and at the same time provided adequate workouts for each of our key muscles in our body.
Over the past few weeks, I noticed that my stamina levels have gone up significantly. I felt a lot more energetic and younger than what I used to feel years back. And even now I have a workout rhythm, which my body loves.
What I know of all Revvo coaches is that each one has an inspiring story of transformation behind him/her and they always show that it’s all so very possible. They had a special talent to understand very well as to how much each body can take and they accordingly tailor the workouts.
What makes me come back to Revvo is the upbeat music, the Revvo team, the magical inspiration from each coach and to top it all up the refreshing energy drink that we get immediately after each workout.
Revvo is like a family. Always look forward to be back there with them.
Akashini, 18. Undergraduate.
I was a big girl! Very big girl. My obese state was developed due to my sedentary lifestyle as I did not like sports and the big portion size of my main meals. Yes, I enjoyed my food, and I found comfort in food as a ‘destressor’. I guessed that this was quite a typical lifestyle for students like me.
If a young girl, like me, told people that she was not concerned about her weight, do not believe her. The fact was that we were afraid to share how we felt, and also we had attempted several times and failed. Probably the method was wrong or that the method was right and we were not able to be consistent.
I was glad that I had gotten Revvo to help me!
The coaches were friendly and caring as they helped me to understand my needs, educate me about eating right, encouraging and checking on my progress at a pace that I was comfortable with.
During the group workout sessions, although there were other participants around, they were watchful of every one’s ability to perform the workout. At my first workout session, I found it amazing that they were able to personalise the exercises to meet my lower fitness level, yet within a group workout setting!
My joy happened within weeks! My clothes were getting looser and I really needed to buy new smaller size clothes. I was surprised that my new pair of jeans was 4 sizes down.
I was happy. My mum was happier.
Beyond the physical changes, I was more confident of myself to socialise and make friends.
The journey is definitely worth it because Revvo makes the journey not only bearable, but fun and pleasant.
