Edward Sanders, the Managing Director of a real estate consultancy company, had been living in Dubai since 2001. With a sedentary lifestyle and unsatisfactory fitness experiences in the past, Edward knew he needed a change. Inspired by a friend's remarkable results, he turned to Embody Fitness to transform his body, energy levels, and mindset.
Edward’s journey began with a desire to improve his physique and overall well-being. "I was of a certain age, and I realized I wanted to change my body, energy levels, and headspace," he recalls. Dissatisfied with his sedentary lifestyle, long working hours, and inconsistent fitness routine, Edward sought something different—something that could provide lasting results. When a close friend who had trained at Embody Fitness shared his success, Edward knew he had found the right place. "I saw the results, I was blown away. So I came here myself to take a look and got stuck in," he says.
From the outset, Edward was impressed by the holistic approach that Embody Fitness offered. "Originally, it was an aesthetic thing. I was wanting to get a more defined body," he explains. However, as he delved into the program, he realized it was about much more than just physical appearance. "The program is so holistic; it really brought in nutrition and headspace, as well as physique and physical feeling," Edward notes. This comprehensive approach, combining exercise, nutrition, and mental well-being, was a game-changer for him.
"The difference with Embody, I found, was it's next level, it's not just walking up doing a few exercises. It's the whole nutrition, measurement, support. It’s day and night, the difference between what I’ve experienced from regular gyms and this gym."
What truly set Embody Fitness apart for Edward was the professionalism and scientific methodology behind the program. Unlike regular gyms where he previously felt bored and unmotivated, Embody’s trainers provided clear education, personalized measurements, and continuous support.
Edward’s results at Embody Fitness were nothing short of extraordinary. In just 12 weeks, he reduced his body fat from 26% to 11.5% and dropped from 88 kilos to 75.5 kilos, all while building muscle mass. "I was shocked at where we were going, but we got there because it was so complete," he reflects. The rapid and significant changes left Edward in disbelief, even questioning if the before and after photos were of the same person. "It's almost like an out-of-body experience... I was sure we got the photos mixed up," he jokes.
The benefits of Edward’s transformation extended far beyond physical changes. The program not only improved his physique but also supercharged his energy levels, cleared his headspace, and made him more efficient at work. "It just recharged, supercharged me, gave me so much energy during the day," he shares. The emotional and mental benefits were equally profound, as Edward felt more content and accomplished in his daily life. "It wasn't just the physical change; it was a whole emotional and headspace change as well," he adds.
