The Trainer Behind The Plan
Kartik Dey, Founder & Head Coach
I'm Kartik Dey, an NIFS certified personal trainer and the founder of KD FITNESS STUDIO in West Bengal. I started this practice because most people don't fail at fitness from lack of effort — they fail because nobody ever built a plan around their actual life: their job hours, their food habits, their injuries, their patience.
My approach is simple: assess honestly, program deliberately, and adjust weekly based on what your body is actually doing, not what a generic 12-week template assumes. Whether you train with me in-studio or through online coaching, you get the same structured process — a plan that respects your time and treats your goal as a project with milestones, not a New Year's resolution.
Over the years I've coached working professionals fitting training around 10-hour shifts, students building their first real physique, and people returning to fitness after years away from it. The common thread is consistency built through a plan they could actually follow.
