My Story

Raghu Ram in 2019 at 96 kg and in 2025 at 62–65 kg
2019 → 2025: From 96 kg down to a sustainable 62–65 kg.

From 96kg to 62kg: A Transformation Journey

I'm Raghu Ram, a 32-year-old software engineer who was overweight throughout my 20s, reaching 96 kg in early 2019. That changed during a hiking trip to Erawan waterfalls in Thailand—I was completely out of breath while older people breezed past me. That wake-up call made me realize: I need to be fit for life, not just lose weight.

Building Sustainable Fitness

I joined a gym in late 2019 and learned the fundamentals. When COVID hit, I turned to YouTube, experimented, and found what worked for my body. After marriage in late 2020, I adapted from 5-6 days/week to 3-4 days with better results. When I became a father in late 2022, I adjusted again—sometimes hitting the gym at 5:30 AM to balance family and fitness.

Where I Am Today

Today, I maintain a healthy 62–65 kg with 12-15% body fat, good muscle mass, and low visceral fat. By the end of 2024, I completed my Personal Training and Nutrition Certificate courses from NASM, becoming a Certified Personal Trainer. I work out 3-4 days per week, proving that sustainable fitness fits into real life.

DadFit Philosophy

🐢 Slow and Steady Wins

I wasn't rushing to lose fat or build muscle. I focused on building strong foundations so fitness became a habit, not a chore. Sustainable progress beats quick fixes.

⚖️ Choose Your Hard

Being unfit is hard. Being fit is hard. Both require effort, but only one rewards you with long-term health, confidence, and the ability to keep up with life.

"We're not chasing shortcuts or six-pack promises—we're building steady, lasting change you can trust."

Frequently Asked Questions

Great question. You can validate me against the knowledge I have — I have published my fitness knowledge in this YouTube playlist and you can download the full transcript (using this link), to cross-check with any AI or other sources. I have also shared my transformation video where I explain my journey and results.
Given that I am a dad myself, I understand the challenges of balancing fitness with family life. If you are still unsure and need answers for many more questions, we can have a setup a quick call to clarify before you decide to join.

Promise: Be self sufficient and confident to maintain fitness independently after 6 months of training with me.

Real transformation takes time. Over six months you'll build better habits, gain accountability, and see measurable, sustainable progress relative to your starting point. Six months lets us adapt plans, handle life changes, and focus on lasting change rather than quick fixes. Six-pack transformation isn't the goal here; building a lifestyle where fitness is a natural part of your routine is.

If a local trainer works for you and you are confident that you can be fit independently in long term, I'm super happy for you. No hard feelings!!!
My goal is to teach and equip you with the knowledge to be fit for life—so you can maintain results independently and adapt fitness to your long-term lifestyle.

Yes, a gym membership is recommended. We focus on building real strength for the long run, which requires progressive overload with weights. While occasional bodyweight workouts are fine when traveling or in a pinch, consistent access to proper equipment is essential for sustainable results.

DadFit is designed for current and future dads who want sustainable fitness. If you're already a dad, we'll build plans around family life. If you're planning for fatherhood, we'll help you establish those habits now so you're ready when life gets busier.

Traditional gyms follow fixed schedules and generic routines. DadFit adapts to YOUR life—whether you're traveling, have family commitments, or work irregular hours. You get personalized plans, real-time adjustments, and no "one-size-fits-all" approaches.

I work with your schedule. Most clients train 3-4 days per week for around 60 minutes. In cases where you can only manage 2 days, we'll adjust the schedule and make sure you're still progressing. We'll find what works for your lifestyle—whether that's early mornings, lunch breaks, or evenings.

More importance to proteins and fibers will be given, as they help in muscle building and satiety. I focus on sustainable nutrition that fits your lifestyle, food preferences, and family meals. Small, manageable changes that you can maintain for life—not restrictive meal plans you'll quit in 2 weeks.

I'll adjust your plan in real-time. Hotel room workouts, quick gym sessions, or even nutrition strategies for eating out—we'll adapt so you stay on track no matter where you are.
