MY STORY

This is Mahmoud, the founder of Panda Fitness EG, an engineer, online coach, and natural bodybuilder.

Growing up in an Egyptian household with less-than-ideal eating habits, I experienced the struggles of being overweight. The low self-confidence, the insecurities, and the dissatisfaction with my own body were all too familiar. Determined to make a change, my fitness journey began at the age of 15 when I stepped into my local gym. It was there that I discovered the captivating art of bodybuilding.

Like many beginners, I faced the challenge of not knowing where to start. Endlessly trying diets, workout routines, and weight loss pills, I couldn't find a sustainable solution. But I didn't give up. With an unwavering desire to learn and improve, I dedicated myself to understanding the science behind exercise and nutrition. I delved into the realms of biomechanics, bodybuilding, strength training, sports nutrition, and program design.

In 2021, while juggling my demanding engineering studies, I became a personal trainer at Gold's Gym Egypt. It was during this time that a brilliant idea sparked in my mind. If I could manage my busy academic life, stay healthy, and look good, why not help others do the same?

In 2022, Panda Fitness was born. My vision was to assist individuals in transforming their bodies while effectively managing the stresses and responsibilities of everyday life. Drawing from my own experiences and understanding the frustrations people had with expensive personal training packages and lackluster support, I decided to bridge the gap in the market. As an engineer with firsthand knowledge of hectic schedules, I developed fitness programs tailored to fit busy lives.

With Panda Fitness, I strive to provide people with the guidance, communication, and support they truly deserve on their fitness journey.
