Khalid

If it was easy, everyone would do it.

Have you met Khalid? 

Khalid's fitness journey began in his uni days when he was carrying some extra weight. Opting for a personal trainer, he shed a whopping 20kgs! 😱 This was a pivotal moment for Khalid, sparking a desire to shift gears from his Human Management background to pursue a career in personal training. 

Growing up in Perth, Khalid later jetted off to Qatar where he was a supervisor at a very exclusive fitness club for 5 years. Upon returning to the land down under, he ventured into entrepreneurship, establishing his own fitness jungle for a while. 

For the last 6 months, Khalid has been a part of the ARC team, relishing every aspect of his roles. Khalid says, “the ARC is such high-quality facility with so much variety. Everyone is so welcoming, both staff and members”. 

When it comes to training, he favours power-building, a fusion of powerlifting and bodybuilding. He says, “there is something incredibly satisfying about lifting heavy weights and feeling the burn of a good workout”. His advice for members is to stay consistent. Progress happens overtime, not overnight. 

Outside ARC-land, you'll find Khalid spending time with his wife and son, cheering on Arsenal Football Club, dancing to anything Kanye West and squeezing in study for his Masters in Business Administration. 📚
