12 months · Age 40s Barry
I have trained at Roar for over two years and would highly recommend my coach Ethan Kenny (and Josh Faux who has helped me with nutrition).I initially joined for weight loss and dropped 24kg in my first 3 months. The process was life changing and I discovered that I enjoyed weight training. Since then I have worked with Ethan to change the shape of my body and grow muscle mass. Ethan has been there for me every step of the way and is always pushing me to achieve new goals.

Questions About Men’s Results
Have anything else on your mind? We’re here to help
How long does a male body transformation take?
ROAR's male clients have achieved significant results in programmes ranging from 8 to 24 weeks, with 12 weeks being the most common. The timeframe depends on the extent of the transformation and your individual starting point. Tom’s eight-week result featured in Men’s Health, and Matthew signed up for three months and stayed for 24 weeks.
Can a man transform his body in 3 months?
Can a man in his 40s transform his body?
Yes. With the right programme and guidance, men in their 40s, 50s and beyond can achieve significant improvements in strength, muscle mass and body composition. ROAR client Stephen was 43 when he lost 10kg and built significant muscle mass in just 12 weeks. Read Stephen’s story.
Do I have to train every day?
Three personal training sessions per week is our recommended starting point. This provides the consistency needed to build strength, develop muscle and reduce body fat, while allowing sufficient time for recovery. ROAR client Michael achieved his transformation training just three hours a week.
