I have been training on average 3 times per week with Ngọc for about five months. He has helped me to define my goals, establish and stick to a routine, and get to know and appreciate my strengths and weaknesses. Ngọc uses a combination of strength, endurance, flexibility and balance exercises, customised to my needs and goals. He regularly tests my fitness levels, and keeps a very close eye on my progress, bringing us both to understand my mental and physical limits. Ngọc is extremely well-read – both in exercise science and in general. His deep curiosity makes him a fun and entertaining interlocutor: he never tires of explaining in detail the breakdown of each exercise, its benefits and its challenges, as well the combination of exercises he chooses for each workout. He makes sure that every rest moment is also a learning moment – for the both of us. Never a dull moment! Ngọc is totally committed to his clients’ fitness needs. As someone who has trained for basketball at the highest level, he knows first-hand what élite athletes need to perform at their best. His chosen field of study – exercise science – is his passion, and he infuses this passion into his clients. One of my self-critiques while working with Ngọc is that I’ve come to depend a bit too much on him to keep me motivated and learning. He is my accountability buddy and my coach. Ideally, I would have the self-motivation and self-discipline to do the routines Ngọc has taught me on my own. I’m not there yet…
