I paid 967 USD to Dan Tai for a 1-1 VIP Coaching 🔥 90 Day Transformation that turned out to be mostly access to a generic workout app with little personalized support and guidance. It was so disappointing and heartbreaking as I put too much hope and invested money, time, and energy and made a lot of sacrifices to follow the program even on vacations abroad.
Dan Tai promised a tailored program with workouts under 45 minutes, tailored meal plan, mindset coaching, and a 100 % money-back guarantee if no results were achieved. In reality, workouts often exceeded 1 h 30 min – 2 h, even on vacations, very few rest days, sometimes with complicated tri-sets impossible to do in a normal gym. He didn’t ask too much where you want to go or your constrains. Despite following the plan closely, training even while traveling and taking the recommended supplements (BCAA, Creatine, Aswagandha), I saw no measurable progress and even lost muscle size.
The “coaching” mainly consisted of pre-loaded workouts based on a questionnaire and meals and short replies in the app chat. The ˜15 minute calls were often canceled or rescheduled last minute, and some weeks I didn’t receive new programs or nutrition plans until the very end. The recipes were repetitive, incomplete, and not truly personalized, and the app itself is basic, lacking weight tracking for the exercises, timers, or clear instructions. I also had to wait or chase for an answer to my questions or push for changes as not seeing results.
When I requested the refund Dan had promised (“no games”), he refused and suddenly introduced new conditions that were never mentioned beforehand (e.g. sending daily workout videos, maintaining a specific heart rate, step count, and stair flights). This felt arbitrary and dishonest.
At the beginning I was skeptical as the photos of other transformations didn’t seem so spectacular, my intuition told me that something was wrong, I learned at least to follow my intuition and stop believing influencers who promise magic programs
Overall, this was a stressful, time-consuming, and disappointing experience that didn’t deliver on any of the promises made. When the program ends you lose access to the program. There are far better and cheaper fitness apps or coaches that offer real guidance and transparency like Nassim Sahili with Fitness program.
