Completed my first solo race and a pro double race in one day 😅 However, my race didn’t go as planned. Everything was going well until I reached the walking lunges. Both my quads cramped up really badly at the 10m mark, and my goal for sub 60 went to survival mode. 😢 I had to push through it, but it’s okay I’ll train harder and be better prepared next time.

Congratulations to my younger brother on completing his first Hyrox and pushing through the race! More races to come 👍

Time under tension ⏱️

Another year with photoshoot
Big congrats to and on your first cut
Proud of the discipline, consistency, and work you both put in to make this happen. Definitely just the beginning 💪

Cardio on Saturday Afternoon 🤣

When Murtuza joined SURGE on the first day, his primary goals were weight loss, improving his general health, being more active, and addressing his mental health. We initiated our training journey on February 17th, and over the course of 28 weeks, Murtuza displayed consistent dedication to his nutrition and cardio routines, resulting in gradual yet significant progress.

Our target was to lose 10kg and reach a body fat percentage of around 15%, starting from his initial weight of 83kg with a body fat percentage of 30%. I am delighted to share that Murtuza surpassed our expectations, achieving incredible transformations within the given timeframe.

After 28 weeks of commitment and hard work, Murtuza reached an impressive weight of 66.1kg and achieved a body fat percentage of 12.04%. This remarkable achievement represents an incredible drop of 16.9kg and a significant reduction of 17.96% in body fat.

While the physical changes are evident, it is also important to acknowledge the positive impact on Murtuza's mental health. By prioritizing his fitness journey and engaging in regular exercise, Murtuza experienced improvements in his overall well-being and found solace in physical activity as a means of self-care.

Witnessing Murtuza's transformation has been incredibly rewarding. It is a testament to his commitment, resilience, and determination to reclaim his health and well-being, both physically and mentally. I am honored to have been a part of Murtuza's journey and grateful for the trust he placed in me as his fitness trainer.

Hey fitness friends! Today, I want to talk about something awesome called body recomposition and how it can help you reach your fitness goals like a pro! 💪

🔹 What is Body Recomposition?
Body recomposition means changing your body by building muscle and losing fat at the same time. It's like sculpting your body to be stronger and leaner all at once!

🔹 How to Get Started?
1️⃣ Set Goals: Decide what you want to achieve and make realistic targets for yourself.

2️⃣ Eat Right: Focus on healthy, balanced meals with lots of protein, carbs, and good fats. Eat a little less than you need to lose fat but enough to fuel your muscles.

3️⃣ Lift Weights: Do exercises that work multiple muscles, like squats and push-ups. Start with lighter weights and gradually increase as you get stronger.

4️⃣ Do Cardio: Get moving with activities you enjoy, like running, biking, or dancing. Mix up the intensity to burn fat and improve your heart health.

5️⃣ Keep Track: Write down your progress, measure your body, and take photos. This helps you see how you're doing and make changes if needed.
