Henry loses 20kg in just 4 months by training at EMA

Just wanted to share with you all how proud of this young man we are at EMA. Henry is a Hong Kong native who came to Exeter to study Mechanical Engineering at the University, joining us in November. At that time he weighed 96kg and was pretty unfit by his own account.

Henry dived straight into the EMA culture, training on our unlimited package with the benefit of student discount. Now some 4 months later he has shed 20kg and now weighs an amazing 76kg.

He trains in Jiu Jitsu, Kickboxing, BJJ, Boxing and Japanese sword and in that 4-month period he has achieved his first gradings and belt tests in Jiu Jitsu, Sword and Kickboxing. Plus, last weekend he had his first boxing match, also raising money for Cancer Research in our partnership with UWCB (Ultra White-Collar Boxing).

The guy is a complete inspiration and is testament to what you can achieve if you surround yourself with the right team. Looking forward to seeing his progression.
