8-Week Body Transformation Program with Fortius Personal Training and Nutrition Coaching
This article tells Hamza's story and his incredible 8-week body transformation journey. When he came to us, he was looking for a total transformation - not just physical but psychological. Hamza is an entrepreneur heavily invested in various businesses in the fields of crypto and marketing! As a high-performing individual, he sometimes goes for 10-12 hour work shifts and sacrifices his sleep, which affects his health badly! As someone who loves a good night out, we could say that his lifestyle was quite unhealthy at the time.
Hamza was looking for a company that would not just provide personal training but would offer a complete package that would improve his health and how he looks and performs simultaneously. He needed someone to teach him how to manage his food and find supplementation to help him alleviate stress and regulate his sleep so that he could achieve fitness goals and make profound lifestyle changes.
He reached out to a couple of personal trainers in Dubai; however, as he stated, the main reason he joined us was his initial consultation with personal trainer Milos.
Body transformation journey with Fortius Dubai - Weight loss and muscle gain program
This program works by conducting an assessment with the client, and they fill up a comprehensive questionnaire, after which we can decide whether we are the right fit to work together. If we proceed with the program, the client gets his own dedicated personal trainer and nutrition coach to set clear objectives and ensure that all the client's needs are met.
For Hamza, we had the following objectives set before the start of his fitness regime:
Lose 0.5% of body fat per week
Lose 0.5cm of the waist per week
Lose 3-5 kg of scale weight
Increase strength by 20-25% over the 8 weeks
Improve sleep duration and quality
Learn how to manage food on his own and improve eating habits with our diet coaching

"When I first did the onboarding call with Hamza, I realized that he had an unhealthy relationship with food. Hence my job was not just to teach him how to track his calories and hit the right macros for his specific goal but also to help him become a more mindful eater. That way, we could not just get maximum results during the eight weeks but also be set for life!
Hamza was very responsive and kept his journal regularly, which can sometimes be demanding but is required to ensure outstanding results.
I always tell all the clients I work with that they must remain invested mentally in the process so that they don't just get into the best shape of their life during the transformation process but also maintain their physique, health, and lifestyle in the years to come!
My nutrition coaching will enable them to:
Calculate their calories
Learn how to count calories
Learn how to curate a macro split that will meet their needs and ensure they get their desired results
Which supplements to utilize to improve digestion, recovery, and sleep
I do not curate a diet plan which I find to be very restrictive and not practical for long-term results, but I educate my clients on how to hit their macros by eating the foods they love while at the same time losing fat or gaining muscle! For those who want generic meal plans that are also effective, simple to follow, and affordable, I suggest you check our dieting templates.
For those of you that want a hands-on 1 on 1 nutrition coach, I recommend you find out more details about our services here!

Common questions and answers
How long does it take to transform your body fully?
It would depend on factors such as your starting point, genetics, age, etc. However, with our program, you can expect significant changes in your body composition within the first few weeks!
Is it possible to put on muscle mass and lose weight simultaneously?
Yes, it is possible to gain muscle and achieve weight loss simultaneously. The more important question is can you optimize muscle gain and weight loss at the same time? And the answer is that it is, in most cases, not optimal, especially if you are an intermediate or advanced trainee. During your initial consultation and after receiving your questionnaire, we make sure to set clear objectives before starting the program so that we can adjust your training and nutrition plan to help you achieve your desired results!
Is a body transformation possible in 12 weeks?
Most of our clients achieve their transformations in 12-16 weeks. However, we suggest that everyone opt for our 16-week body transformation package simply so that we do not have to push to any extremes to get the results and can help you develop sustainable habits for the long term!
