THE CHALLENGE APPROACH
PROGRAM
Find your power and be extraordinary
Want it, it’s yours.
The most dedicated, life changing and personalized
personal training
program ever created
We believe that challenging yourself while being inspired to grow through support and partnership is the key to long-term progress.
Too many trainers focus only on helping you lose ‘‘weight’’ fast, promise huge unrealistic long term results that only leaves you going back into old habits and give you cookie-cutter programs or a simple meal plan. Most trainers lack in giving you the tools you need to conquer mental blocks, build self-efficacy and actually give you knowledge for long-lasting results.
As a relationship takes root, a great coach can drive accountability and build intrinsic motivation. They should help set goals, raise the bar, challenge you, teach you how to stay consistent through tough times, and build momentum.

Let’s get personal and real. I’ve struggled just like you have. I know what it feels like to lose weight, gain it back, lose it again, get depression, gain it back ect.
In the last couple of years i have been able to develop a system that has helped a large amount of clients not just lose weight, but change their life and self motivation for fitness. We are all in this together!
My name is Arturo Pacas, the founder of AP transform fitness. I am 29 years old, and I live in New York City, NY.
I have worked as a Certified personal trainer and nutrition specialist for the past 8 years. I have trained clientele ranging in age with various health needs, from obese individuals to athletes as well as actors, comedians, and models. I’ve worked in many gyms, including Blink Fitness, NYSC, and Mid City Gym, before I decided to create my own private personal training business.
Through my teen years, I grew up very overweight and dealt with depression. I was bullied in school because of my weight and social anxiety. I isolated myself from friends and family.
I decided to take action and had my parents get me a gym membership. I lost 65 pounds in a year. I became involved in sports such as Varsity soccer/football, and I even got a girlfriend (actually, not really, but at least I felt more confident to ask a girl out). I also practiced martial arts, including taekwondo, kickboxing, and Muay Thai, in my early 20s.
I struggled with social anxiety, body dysmorphia and depression in my early and mid 20s that caused me to have a yo-yo effect on my health, especially my weight. I challenged myself to overcome these barriers without medicine and i know from day one i would love to help others do the same! I am not against pills or therapy, in fact i encourage them as a last resort but i know that if i can break the cycle by challenging the body and the mind, i can conquer just about any obstacle life throws at me!
Since then, I have fallen in love with Fitness. Not just caused it helped me calm my depression and anxiety but it has made me a STRONGER and more REFLECTIVE person. To me, going to the gym and challenging myself is like therapy. It helps me become mentally and physically stronger every day! It challenges me and helps me grow every single day. In the good days and the bad days.
I didn’t just gain confidence but a strong mindset.
And so can you!
Optimize your true potential and conquer your goals!

I’ve trained with Arturo for 6 months and have loved every second. He’s super encouraging and keeps me motivated throughout the week even during off training days. He checks in with great eating and workout tips to keep me on track. His style is less boot camp drill sergeant and more motivational coach, which works well with my personality. Since working with him I’ve lost weight, toned up and drastically improved my posture.

“I started working out with Arturo a little over a year ago and in the first few months alone I, along with my friends and family, noticed a distinct difference in my body and my level of energy. Arturo is knowledgeable and skilled at crafting a specific workout routine tailored to get you on the fast track to your goals. He is also very understanding and patient which is key with anyone you look to for help with transforming your body.
Arturo is also quick to remind you that fitness is a process and reliably cheers all your successes. I’m excited to be on my journey with him.”

I’ve had many trainers over the years and this guy puts them all to shame. I’ve never done pushups so well, never had such good form on lunges and squats, never handled chest presses anywhere near as well as I do under his guidance. He is skilled, compassionate, friendly and pushes me to do my best. He’s very good at working around physical problems or injuries, finding alternate, safer exercises to do. I have never felt more capable of reaching my fitness goals than I have since I met Arturo. He’s the absolute best.

I have been working with Arturo for the best part of a year now and I cannot recommend him enough. He has helped focus me and get me back on track. He has given me help with diet planning, nutritional knowledge as well as training and creating me achievable yet challenging workout plans. Arturo’s approach has always made me feel comfortable and motivated to train.

Arturo is an extremely dedicated trainer! He has completely changed the way I view weights. I always wanted to have the “toned” body. I did cardio in the past and light weight training. When I started lifting heavier with Arturo’s guidance, I finally saw the “toned” look and the definition I always wanted!! And on top of that the progress was so much faster than anything I else I have ever done!

Out of the 4 personal trainers I have had, Arturo was the best by far. Always available, in a good mood but still very result – oriented. I achieved tremendous results in just a few months training with him!
