About Robin
I didn't come to fitness from a pedestal.
I came to it because I needed it.
For years, my life looked successful from the outside—but inside, it was slowly breaking me down. Long hours, high stress, late nights, habits that felt normal until they weren't. Somewhere along the way, I lost connection with my body, my energy, and myself.
At my heaviest, I was 120 kilos.
What hurt more than the weight was what came with it: low confidence, low energy, and the feeling that the best version of me was already behind me.
The change didn't come from a dramatic moment or a magic plan. It started with a simple decision: to show up. No shortcuts. No hacks. Just consistency on the days motivation was absent.
As my body began to change, something deeper shifted. Strength returned. Confidence followed. Mental clarity came back. Fitness stopped being about looking a certain way—it became the foundation that gave me my life back.
That experience changed how I see training.

Why I Coach the Way I Do
I understand the frustration of starting when you feel far from your best. I understand the mental resistance, the self-doubt, the slow days where progress feels invisible. I've lived it. And that's why my coaching isn't built on trends or gimmicks—it's built on fundamentals that don't age: discipline, consistency, and respect for the process.
I've trained across generations—from old-school iron and chalk to today's digital, over-informed fitness world. What I've learned is simple: the principles that built strength decades ago still work today. The tools may evolve, but the work remains the same.
At eGym Lokhandwala, we carry forward that old-school strength culture, supported by modern coaching methods. Not flash. Not fads. Just intelligent training, done consistently, with purpose.
"Friends may come and go but 200 pounds will always be 200 pounds."
This isn't just about lifting weights. It's about character. About understanding that some things in life are constant—and your commitment to them defines who you become.
My philosophy is straightforward: train hard, train smart, and train consistently. Whether your goal is strength, body recomposition, or a complete lifestyle reset, the path is the same.
Show up.
Do the work.
Trust the process.
If this resonates, training together makes sense.

Transformation & Insights
The story behind 30 years of discipline, dedication, and transformation. Real insights and honest perspectives.
From 120 to 78: How I Rebuilt My Body After 40 (and Why "It's Too Late" Is a Myth)
Hi, I'm Robin. For almost 30 years, I worked in advertising. If you know that world, you know the lifestyle that often comes with it: late hours, high stress, constant socializing, and a version of "living" that looks fun from the outside...
"Friends may come and go but 200 pounds will always be 200 pounds"
This isn't just a saying—it's a philosophy. Some things in life are constant. Your commitment to them defines who you become. The weights will always be there. The question is: will you be?
I'm a Personal Trainer. Not an Influencer.
I'm a personal trainer. Not an influencer. Not a cheerleader. Not a content creator or blogger on YouTube. And definitely not "just a trainer." My workday starts before your alarm and ends after your motivation disappears. I rearrange my life around your schedule. Early mornings. Late nights. Because flexibility is part of the job...
I am a Warrior
I am a Warrior My choices are seen as extreme My ability at times defying nature Yet my life is characterised By near constant disappointment In my efforts to build a foundation for later success To be a worthy representative of myself I must know defeat and humble myself to its teachings Continuously i must test..and test…and test..and test my limits again For in this testing lies the answer to the question "How will I be better tomorrow"? Fear and Ego will stop many as they mistake failure for weakness But it is precisely through this failure that i come to understand What is possible,...

Testimonials
Real results from real people. Long-term transformations, not quick fixes.
Robin doesn't just train your body—he trains your mind. After 18 months, I've not only transformed physically but developed a discipline that extends to every area of my life.
30 years of experience shows. Robin's programming is intelligent, his coaching is precise, and his approach is no-nonsense. This is what real training looks like.
The community at eGym is unlike any other gym. Serious lifters, zero ego, all focus. Robin has built something special here, and it shows in every training session.
I came in looking for a quick fix. Robin showed me that transformation is a process, not an event. Two years later, I'm stronger, leaner, and more disciplined than I ever thought possible.
My previous encounters with gym environments have been challenging, so while I joined E-gym I was very sceptical and hence not a regular. Once I became somewhat regular, I have found that I enjoy working out and that has everything to do with Robin being my trainer. He possesses a distinctive talent for motivation, adeptly pushing me beyond my self-imposed limits to achieve better performance, progressively increase my lifting capacity, and ultimately foster measurable gains in strength. It has been a profoundly rewarding experience to train under his guidance and I am particularly grateful for the positive shift he has inspired in my fitness journey.
