Kevin Zahri

It all started by accident. While pursuing my engineering degree at Northeastern University in Boston, USA, I picked up fitness training out of pure curiosity. Being an engineer, I wanted to understand how the body works — how nutrition, exercise, and recovery all fit together.

I got certified through the American Fitness Training of Athletics (AFTA) — not for a career, just for myself. But when I came back to Malaysia, one thing led to another. I started writing for Men's Health Malaysia, then training clients, then appearing on TV, then writing books...

Tiba-tiba, Cikgu Fitness Malaysia pun lahirlah. 😄

What drives me is simple: I've seen too many Malaysians struggle with their weight not because they're lazy — but because they've been given the wrong information. Crash diets. Extreme workouts. Supplements that don't work. I built my programs around one core belief:

"Kurus bukan soal kurus. Ia soal hidup yang lebih sihat, lebih bahagia, dan lebih bermakna."

Today, with over 250,000 participants across my programs and a community of over 1 million followers, the mission continues — one healthier Malaysian at a time.
