I am a hospitality professional , working long hours with no set routine. Lot of stress both physically and mentally . Few years ago I had a major setback in my life and alcohol became part of my daily life . Uneven eating habits and alcohol everyday slowly started to show up on my body and it was a late realisation of being overweight. Then I got introduced to #haachikofitness through a common friend and then there was no looking back .Manish and Adib are extremely helpful mentors . They worked out their schedule to fit me and my UK Time zone in. The diet plan and workout are really easy to follow . I lost 6kgs in first month and already started to feel full of energy and positive . A big thanks to both of them . Without their proper guidance it wouldn’t have been possible

Quote “ Manish and Adib, they are our magicians now ” Hello Everyone.I am Nilanjana a mother of an eleven year old who will step in 40 this year. I work in Dubai and stay alone here. Our super crazy work schedule at times demand 12 to 14hours a day. My most awaited summer travel was cancelled and my most awaited time to meet my son goes for a toss. Since I was identified with Depression last year, I was ready to visit my shrink again and be on the my meds to save me from spiralling in depression again. I am already a chronic patient of diabetes, cardiac condition and sleep apnea with multiple other health issues. In this situation my sister introduced me to Manish, as she enjoying her #haachikofitness regime. I joined him immediately with two of my friends for a group training. Manish and Adib, they are our magicians now. Manish comes in with a gush of fresh air and his vibrant personality motivates me. His meticulous details of the regime, accommodating us in a time difference of 1.5 hours and a vibrant laughter brighten my day. And Adib is the guy who trains us. Adib has an eye for detail. Even in online sessions he can actually figure out a minute posture difference and corrects with absolute grace. The best part with him is that inspite of working in a group he never persues the method of ‘one size fit all’. He tailors workout According to our capacity and ability. I cannot tell you how happy I am after everyday’s workout. Our diet is also minutely understood and observed by Adib and suggested with immediate suggestions on What’s app group, when in confusion during groceries ‘which brown rice to buy’ too. You two are angels of my life. Looking forward to become one of your #haachikofitness Insta models someday and flaunt my weight and inch loss. Guys God bless you both for being our saviors and mentors. #haachikofitness you

One of my close friend, has been religiously working out with Manish – #haachikofitness for the past year. She would mention how she loved his tough workouts very often . However the day she mentioned she was spent after a session of boxing I squealed ! Learning to box has been on my bucket list for years now. I called Manish and along with his business partner Adib , we started right away. Adib is a trained boxer and his routines are hard-core. I simply love the rush of adrenaline that comes during and post work-out. Boxing is a great way to release pent-up aggression, anxiety and frustration – something that all of us are going through this lock-down. Adib is very encouraging but firm. And that is something I love about working out with #haachikofitness. I feel thrilled and excited about my day after having worked out with them. I am a writer and a mother to a 9 year old. So along with my profession , I also coach her in her academics. Except for cooking and housework a large part of the day is spent sitting. I have always been plus size and very comfortable in my skin. However the lack of fitness related activities was making me feel sloppy. One trial session and it felt so good . The pursuit of happiness is important for the well-being of any human being . For me it is boxing and functional training with Adib and Manish –

I never liked working out. I was always too tired and too lazy by the end of the day to get to the gym let alone actually workout. And eating healthily did not come naturally to me. #haachikofitness helped me ease my way into working out and eating a balanced diet. I have been now working out with #haachikofitness for over a year and I feel I have found my fitness home. They went at the pace I was comfortable and before I knew it I was looking and feeing so much better. On top of being very insightful and knowledgeable trainers, both Manish and Adib, customised workouts as per my body strength. The workout programs that they create are interesting, fun and diverse. They are constantly surprising and challenging me and there never is a dull workout with them. In my experience with #haachikofitness not only I became physically more fit but also they changed my lifestyle and my attitude towards living a healthier life. To all the people who feel too lazy or tired – I say get off the couch and do it! It’s hard at first but #haachikofitness eases you into it and it is all worth it in the long run, I

I joined #haachikofitness last year 2019. Just 4-5 months before my wedding. I was sure my body wasn’t going to magically transform. Also, I have a desk job and I’m quite a foodie and a lazy bum. Adib, introduced me to proper weight training. I was shocked at how much I could lift! We focused on different body parts every day and the workout was Hardcore! Surprisingly, my body was quite toned by the time I was getting married! I still train with #haachikofitness and I love how motivating they are! Always on time and always ready to push me to workout. Also, I really enjoy my workouts because Adib is such a fun loving person, with him the workouts are never boring and he makes sure to challenge me which makes me push myself harder. Even during the lockdown, #haachikofitness made sure they train us online and have really innovative machine less workouts that don’t need a gym, all you need is a yoga mat and good internet 😅. Thank you #haachikofitness for pushing me because lazy bums like me really need

I’m not going to promote haachikofitness, but want to share my experience here…There is a saying “Ghar ki murgi dal barabar”. Its doesn’t only apply for husband and wife but also to siblings. We tend to not take family members seriously… but in this case its different my darling brother, Manish. You have not only given me a proper diet and adding to it lots of new GYM WEAR, but you were after my life to also workout with you daily without fail with multiple reminders ! Due to lockdown my gym is shut I was being lazy to workout as kitchen and household work had made me busy . But something was missing… felt life is stuck but your motivation made me workout daily. Thanks for always being there for me not as my younger brother but now as my nutritionist and trainer too…..I’m so proud of you as pursued haachikofitness… but gave yourself a transformation. All the best my dearest brother. Wish you all the success in the world…love you infinity and beyond…be weird and crazy like me

Fitness is not just an activity but a lifestyle that one chooses for himself/herself. Well it all started 1.5 years back when I wasn’t in a great shape and never took fitness seriously. It was mainly because I had to devote most of the time for my CA studies and office work for which I had to to sit for long hours! That made me careless about my physique and the diet at the same time. On realising, I discussed about it with Manish who has immense knowledge about fitness and he was the one who motivated me to get enrolled with #haachikofitness. At the same time Adib Shaikh was the one who planned my diet carefully and made sure that I am eating healthy food at regular intervals and that the carbs intake was minimal! It was difficult initially but as I started seeing changes in my body within a month, I decided to continue with the same routine and within 4 months of following the workout regime given by Manish, I lost almost 12kgs which was incredible! Since then I have been in a good shape and confident of myself when I am at any social function or parties.

I was always into fitness. As a teenager I used to workout at home watching YouTube videos and got inspired and I decided to become a fitness trainer. I’ve been training myself to enter a body building competition and been working on myself for the past 4 month but I couldnt get the required body for the competition. Then I got in touch with #haachikofitness and trust me its been amazing getting trained under guidance of Adib sir, his in-depth knowledge is superb when it comes to building a aesthetic body for the title. It became clear that I was doing something wrong for the past 4 months. I know it will take time for me to enter any body building competition. But my fingers are crossed and with the help of #haachikofitness I will sure achieve

In 2015 year end I was diagnosed with a serious medical condition. CSF leak (Cerebro Spinal Fluid leak) where the membrane around my brain has a tear and was causing fluid from around my brain to leak. Surgery to fix it was the only solution but it brought an end to almost all kinds of exercises. No contact training/ not high impact/ no weight training. Many trainers thought about it for a few days and mostly didn’t revert, as customising a work out plan for me needed a deep understanding of physiology and anatomy and also the creative strategic mindset to devise a safe and effective exercise plan for me. , I has resigned to the fact that may be there were no training options left for me. I’ve known Manish since 15 yrs and had also met Adib at social gatherings. My sister and friends were training with Haachiko fitness yet I didn’t ask them- expecting no revertal much like what had happened in the past. I didn’t want to be disappointed again. Day #2 of the national lockdown I told Manish on an impulse to call me back- he promptly did. Then I told them my list of donts! It’s a serious one and it’s non negotiable! And they didn’t say No. They devised a plan taking all my multiple Donts into consideration. Almost 8 weeks later, I have trained every muscle that can be trained in their online sessions without a single dumbbell. Haachiko fitness has taught me there’s always room for flexibility!

I have known Manish for almost 2 decades now. I’ve known him through his slim days, fat days, good days, bad days and now his Healthy and Fit days. He’s worked very hard to get health as his way of life. I have never been a thin girl but after having my son I lost the ability to spring back to my pre pregnancy days and I even ignored the unhealthy side of me, but as the lockdown started and speaking to Manish constantly about healthy habits it was but obvious that he would be the best person to help me get healthy. I’ve been working out with manish for a month now and its been a great experience. #haachikofitness team customised my diet basis my ability and set very realistic goals. My weekly workouts push me to the edge and there is never a chance for me to make any excuses. Manish pushes me just enough to make the workouts both enjoyable and effective. I would readily recommend #haachikofitness and the

I don’t like the idea of getting up and getting ready and going to the gym and exercising alone all by my self. Its not fun ! That’s why I think I stopped getting gym memberships as I’ve always got a gym memberships for 6 months and gone for 1 week. I used to be into sports and athletics when I was in school. I’ve done yoga, pilates, and all kinds of things but I’ve never been in a routine where I’m working out everyday of my life… following that through years. No I’ve not done that. I wasted money repeatedly. I actually wanted to get back to fitness and work out everyday and lead a healthy life. I’m on the other side of 40, I had put on some weight, that I was finding difficult to lose. I got to know about #haachikofitness through Manish. When he started #haachikofitness I was really excited for him as I’ve known him for many years. It was also very inspiring to see him, having given up his television career for like nearly 2 decades and pursue his passion for fitness. You have your friend coming over and training you so its fun and also hardcore as he doesn’t let me off easily, and Adib is the attack master. They are both quite strict when it comes to pushing you to reach your fitness goals. And I actually enjoy that. The most fun part is when we exercise and we catch up on things and sometimes we gossip around. It doesn’t feel like a work out its like a fun one hour session and it gets me get fit. What more can I ask for ? Ofcourse I will recommend #haachikfitess to my friends and family not because manish is a friend but I believe that #haachikofitness is really good and they have great trainers. #haachikofitnss in one line.. “ get fit while having

I have a work day of 12 to 14 hours 5/6 days a week. I work in a very busy restaurant in London. Working in hospitality, eating habits tend to get worse. Somedays I have to skip breakfast and lunch and due to this I binge eat while having dinner. I have a weakness for sweets and carbonated drinks. This has taken a toll on my weight. Also due to the stressful work load I had put on a lot of weight. #haachikofitness was the best decision Ive taken. I felt comfortable talking to Manish and taking his help. In the beginning we started putting in 45 mins of functional training a day but I needed to have control on my eating habits. Also had to improve my training which I had been lacking for years. So Adib Shaikh put together a diet plan and Manish created an exercise schedule for me and he checked out my capacity for workout. And then there was no space for laziness. The workouts are fun and innovative and required no weights just bodyweight exercises which could be done at the comfort of your home. Especially I never thought working out online will be so easy. Manish made sure all my postures and forms are correct. Highly motivated and following all of their daily advice on the what’s app group they have just made for me. I managed to loose 3kgs in 3 weeks. Losing weight and looking healthy has always been a dream and these two are helping me make that dream come

Health and fitness is paramount as far as life is concerned. This I have been preaching to my patients for last 18 years as a Consultant Physician, Other than family history of diseases, single most important factor to the disease is OBESITY AND SEDETARY LIFE STYLE which has become part of our life. It applies to me also as I have family history of illnesses, sedentary life, advance age and high stress level. I’ve been trying weight loss since last 10 year and been to most sophisticated gyms and had best of the trainers but couldn’t achieve a bit in all those years and finally left gyming. Reasons I identified 1- Lack of motivation 2- Gym trainer’s inadequate knowledge and positive involvement. 3- Time management 4-Wrong and irregular eating habits. I happened to meet Adib and Manish in hospital and I was very happy to see their fitness level and the way they communicate. It was quite impressive and was a new click to try again to lose weight as I was very high risk person to get disease like diabetes and hypertension due to my AGE AND WEIGHT (BMI -32) ideally should be less then 22. That time my weight was 106kg, also there were times when I advised my patients for weight loss and lifestyle modification to get rid of diabetes and blood pressure, it didn’t impress them and even some of them questioned me about my weight, that was embarrassing. I had to put a board behind my chair “PLEASE DON’T ASK DOCTOR ABOUT HIS WEIGHT “😀😀 They made sure I join them and most important they made me feel that money is not important to them, what is important that I lose weight and be fit and that is their responsibility. By now they were friends first and then my trainers. Now journey begins with WhatsApp group. Me being age 53 kind of senior citizen for them. It was challenge to them coz of my age, weight and mobility though I considered myself young and handsome that was my asset.😀 Manish Parab was kind of very friendly and Adib was kind of obsessed fitness freak, So one made me comfortable and motivated and other pushed me to the edge. They made a well-balanced fitness strategy for me. In the beginning, the process was gradual where the focus was on light exercise, diet and lifestyle modification, and over a period of time it became intense to the extent that I was very proud of my achievements and at one point of time , I thought of running away from these guys! What kept me going was my dream of losing weight coming true which had never happened inspite of repeated attempts in last 10 years. What was amazing is that my patient started applauding. I came down from 106 to 90kg that Is a loss of 16kg ! I strongly recommend #haachikofitness because of the below reasons 1. Good knowledge and understanding of Anatomy- very important to prevent muscle, joints and back injuries 2. Strategic customised planning for each individual. 3. Practical Goal setting 4. Passionate Implementation 5. Tenacious target achievement 6. Continuous involvement 7. Unlimted Motivation 8. Very friendly I wish Manish and Adib Good Luck for there future

Quote “our weight loss journey has become really interesting and motivating with #haachikofitness” With PCOD I gained more then 20kgs in last 2 years and my self esteem really went low. And losing weight with PCOD is a vicious circle where weight loss is extremely difficult and the only cure for PCOD is weight loss. My husband never went to the gym in his life, never enjoyed dieting or work out. But after getting introduced to #haachikofitness, the definition of workout has really become interesting for us. Adib is one passionate person who really motivates us a lot to work out and in the process, we have already lost 5/6 kgs in a month. The diet plan shared by this duo is very helpful. Our training process is very exciting as Adib is flexible in changing workout plans as per our body requirements and our weight loss journey has become really interesting and motivating with

I have been working out for quite some time now. And one of my biggest issues with most routines has been that I get bored in no time. And then I need to change things up. So it’s a constant challenge for myself and the person training me to keep things moving and evolving. Also work pressure in my field of work is high so I needed to train with people who adjust to that. Honestly I have found both with #haachikofitness. Both Adib and Manish are accommodating to my schedules as well as making sure they keep me motivated even when I’m not having a good day. I have always Hated any upper body routines but they continue to push me for the same trying to innovate and make it more fun for me. Adib pushes my limits and keeps encouraging me throughout so I don’t give up. Often they have more faith in my abilities than I have in myself and that is really motivating. Whether you’re a newbie at this or someone who’s been doing this for a while I would really recommend #haachikofitness for a truly wholesome workout

So I’m a really, really lazy person and my job is sedentary in that I largely sit in one place and write all day (this is pre-lockdown of course). I am also a big time emotional eater, and on most days whatever I fancy goes right into my mouth. AND I have never ever been excited about working out ! Manish and Adib at #haachikofitness changed all that for me. Their workouts have never ever been boring, or simple. If you ever say (God forbid), “oh this is easy”, they’ll take that up as a personal challenge and make you regret you ever said that!! I mean this in a good way of course, because they display the faith that you CAN do anything and do it well. It’s helped me a great deal, it’s made me look forward to my workouts, specially when Manish makes me do offbeat stuff – what he calls “atrangi” workouts which I absolutely love. These guys are really dedicated and love what they do. I suffer from PCOD and fatty liver which makes losing weight tougher. The eating part I’m still working on, but my body is stronger, more toned and adapts easily to new exercises, all thanks to Haachiko

I have a work day of 14/15 hours, plus time for the babies means that I drink a lot of coffee and eat whatever I find whenever it strikes to eat (basically meaning insane carbs) to get through the insane pressures of home, work and life. As much as I love everything I do, it still is basically a bad lifestyle. Add to that turning 40 and pre diabetes hanging in the background, made me want to change some of this. #haachikofitness is the route I chose. Manish Parab is someone I have known for almost 20 years now and so I was comfortable giving him all my details and saying help. In the beginning we started putting in 1 hour of functional training a day but I needed to get my eating in order and control. So Adib Shaikh put together a diet plan and a new exercise schedule. And he checked out my capacity for workout. And then there was no space for lazing and cheating on diet and yet it was fun, of the tired variety 😊 Highly motivated and following all of their daily advice on the what’s app group they had just for me. I managed to loose 17kgs in 3 months. Of course weight loss is a life long struggle but it’s good to have these 2

Personally I’ve always been inclined towards fitness and the whole idea of being physically fit used to excite me since I was a kid. Probably the generation I’m in everyone wants to have a chiseled physique with those perfectly shaped abs. Being a student of media we tend to be busy around college festivals and various other events and making sure we are participating in almost each and every activity possible. So it does take a toll on our health because it is a morning 7am routine and the erratic hours of coming back home. It always got tough to stick around to a particular routine or have a balanced diet which we as learners could work ourselves around. I met Manish and Adib at the gym and the best part about training and learning under them was I NEVER GOT BORED. The whole gym routine is very monotonous and that’s where #HaachikoFitness comes in because they’ve always made sure I’ve had different variations and routines which used to change everyday keeping me always intrigued and interested in my workouts. I was lucky enough that the diet they put me through was exactly complimenting my college and work routine and I could easily manage my day out with making sure that my workout is on point and my nutrition too. I’m sure there’s always something to learn everyday under them and I’m lucky to have them as friends/brothers/ and great

I started training with #haachikofitness during the lockdown. At first, I was skeptical on the lack of gym equipment but the results I’ve got, are better than going to any gym! I’ve lost 9 kilos in just over 1 Month and have thoroughly enjoyed every workout session! These guys know their stuff… scientific and result driven without the monotony! They worked towards my individual goal and helped with a relatively easy to follow food plan as well. Feels amazing gaining back your strength levels..Thanks for an awesome start

Quote “ Adib and Manish who make it a healthy competition to push yourself and get the best out in you “ COVID- 19 has not been easy on any of us and it’s no different with me especially being away from home in a foreign land with no family it’s not all that easy to keep sane and maintain a daily routine in check especially when everything just changes overnight. Time management & self-development is one of the major things that take a back seat during these times especially with me all I was looking forward to eat and sleep. Thanks to one of my common friends #haachikofitness stepped and it has been a complete life changing experience. I couldn’t help but name Adib and Manish who make it a healthy competition to push yourself and get the best out in you, it’s been a mere month but the changes it has made to my lifestyle is tremendous. I feel a fitter and an upgraded version of myself. In spite of staying in different countries these superheroes are always reachable over zoom to save the day for you. I have indeed started enjoying my workouts which I used to dread and avoid and the challenges and perks set by them have me looking out and wanting for more. the best deal about working out with Adib is he breaks it down and guides you through a normally routine boring workout and turns it into an amazingly simple but challenging task and trust me when I say he won’t let you give up. As its fondly said Health is Wealth and I can’t think of a better way than reaching it with

Proper dietary plans shared by Adib Sheikh and the constant monitoring by #Haachikofitness will definitely help me achieve my Goals. Fitness has now become
