Testimonials

Muscle Effect is absolutely GOLD!!! I had been an elite athlete in my teens and represented state teams... So staying fit isn't new for me! But then I got married... Comfortable lifestyle and comfort food was just too delicious to pass up. Then I started growing sideways instead of upwards! I knew I wanted to get fit and change my eating habits but just lacked motivation! Muscle Effect provided the adequate training schedule which fitted around my shift work hours and Taupo allowed me to reach my potential (which I thought didn’t exist) he reminded me of training days, a meal plan that was easy to follow and a payment plan which made me realise that he really did care for my wellbeing! Did I feel like quitting? Yeah... I had a melt down, but Taupo and the other girls training with me really motivated me and told me that IT WAS OK.... And that he was there with me the whole way throw the tough runs, the agony in trying to push through each exercise, but most of all the friendly environment of wanting to keep coming back! When I started with Muscle Effect my weight was at my heaviest of 152kgs, that was in March 2014 by August 2014 my weight is 135kgs! And still losing! Highly recommended? OF COURSE! GO TEAM MUSCLE EFFECT!

I can’t put my finger on one thing that makes Taupo different from the rest, I just get him. And I feel like he gets me. He is not a 17 year old in a tight fitting singlet talking to me about life changes, he has a genuine passion for what he does and he has the experience and life lessons to back it up. He doesn’t care how much I can lift, or how many laps of the oval I can run, he cares that I stayed focused on my goal to be the best version of myself that I can be and every time I work out with him I know he wants me to succeed in turning my life around as much as I want it. After so many failed attempts I’ve lost count, 9 weeks with Taupo and 17 kilos down, I am on track for the first time in 7 years to be that person. There’s no one else that I would trust to help me achieve this goal.

I’ve been training with Taupo since he first started and have seen definite results in this time. He has helped me get stronger, lose weight and fine-tune my eating habits. Taupo has been a fantastic motivator, always pushing me that little bit further each week. He is very passionate about his work and it shows! I look forward to training and love the feeling when the hour is up. His training sessions are varied and you never quite know what he has planned next. I would highly recommend Muscle Effect to anyone.

Training with Taupo over the last few months has been fantastic and the results are speaking for themselves with a loss of over 6 kilos and 26cms. His variety of different exercises and enthusiasm make each session exciting. Taupo has helped me to achieve goals I didn't think we're possible by combining his boot camp sessions and healthy eating plan. And has also for the first time got me excited for summer! Would and have recommended Taupo and Muscle Effects to everyone I know.
