Want to lose 10+ lbs in 6 weeks without starving yourself or sacrificing all your muscle?

Stop looking for another “fat loss hack.” Build a system you can actually execute.

⏩⏩⏩

Build every meal around protein.

Higher protein helps manage hunger, supports recovery, and gives you a better chance of retaining lean tissue while calories come down. Keep the food simple and repeatable.

A cut is not the time to turn every workout into random calorie-burning punishment.

Keep training hard, control your reps, track performance, and give your body a reason to hold onto muscle while the scale drops.

You can have the perfect macros and training plan and still sabotage the process if recovery is trash.

Sleep, stress management, hydration, and recovery all affect your ability to train hard, stay consistent, and manage fatigue.

Invest in a @pulsetto.tech discount code: COACHJ

The goal isn’t just “weigh less.” It’s to come out of the 6 weeks leaner, stronger, more disciplined, with your muscle intact and a system you can actually maintain.

Save this. Share it with someone starting a cut.

If you want the training, nutrition, accountability, and data handled for you, DM me “CUT.”

She was doing everything she thought was right…

1000 calories a day.

2 hours of cardio.

Still stuck. Still gaining. Still hating her reflection.

Demi came to me mentally and physically drained — lost in a cycle of restriction and burnout that was breaking her down.

I didn’t just flip her plan.
I rebuilt the entire system.

✅ More food — balanced, intentional macros
✅ Strategic cardio — smarter training
✅ Real strength, real recovery, real results
✅ A mindset shift that changed everything

Today she’s:
✔️ 25 lbs down
✔️ Leaner, stronger, and more confident than ever
✔️ A DEKA Trifecta finisher
✔️ And finally in a body she respects — not punishes

This isn’t just a glow-up.
It’s a rescue mission.
A full transformation from the inside out.

If you’re training your ass off and still feel stuck in a body you don’t recognize — DM me “TRANSFORM.”

Let’s make this your last restart.

Back tight at your standing desk? Here’s what I’d try.

Shoes off, soft knees, and move around instead of locking in one position. Simple stuff, but it adds up over a workday.
Not medical advice. If your back pain is sharp or doesn’t go away, get it checked.

Comment “BACK” and I’ll send you the full breakdown. Send this to the friend who stands at their desk all day and complains about their back.

Same person, 7 weeks. Front, side, back, then the numbers.

@inbodyusa 770, 8/28 to 10/16 (about 7 weeks): body fat 21.1% to 15.6%, skeletal muscle mass 76.5 to 80.5 lb, weight 168.4 to 166.3 lb. Scale weight barely moved, which is why I like tracking composition and not just the number on the scale.

Lighting and camera angle differ between the photos, so don’t judge it on the mirror alone. The full scan is on the next slide.

If you want help running something like this, DM me “COACH”. Labs through @algorx (discount code: COACHJ) if you want to look under the hood too.

Results vary. This isn’t medical advice.

Save this for later and send it to someone who’s stuck staring at the scale.

7 weeks. Same person, different composition. Locked TF in 📈

According to the @inbodyusa (8/28 to 10/16, about 7 weeks): body fat went from 21.1% to 15.6%, skeletal muscle mass went from 76.5 to 80.5 lb, and scale weight went from 168.4 to 166.3 lb.

The scale barely moved, and that’s kind of the point. Weight alone hides what’s actually changing, so I like looking at body composition too. Lighting and camera angle differ between the photos, so the scan is the part I’d trust over the mirror.

If you want to run something like this with a coach, DM me “COACH”. I also set up labs through @algorx discount: COACHJ so we’re not guessing about the stuff you can’t see.

Results vary. This isn’t medical advice.

Half the guys in your gym are on “TRT.”

Most of them aren’t doing TRT.

There’s a difference between restoring your hormones and pushing past normal for performance. Both are real. Both are happening. But only one of them gets talked about honestly.

I’m going to break down both, with zero judgment, so you actually understand what you’re signing up for.

Save this and send it to the guy who just told you he “started TRT.”

Real TRT is a medical treatment, not a vibe.

It starts with a diagnosis. That means low testosterone on more than one morning blood test, plus actual symptoms: low energy, low drive, poor recovery, brain fog, losing muscle you used to hold easily.

The goal is simple. Bring you back to a normal, healthy range. Not the top of the chart. Not double it.

And it comes with a physician, a prescription, and bloodwork on a schedule. If your “TRT” doesn’t include all three, it isn’t TRT.

Let’s be honest about this part.

Higher testosterone does build more muscle and strength. The research is clear on that. That’s why people do it.

But your blood keeps score. Above-range levels tend to:
• Thicken your blood (hematocrit goes up)
• Push ApoB up and HDL down
• Raise estrogen
• Shut down your own production and your fertility signals

None of that shows up in the mirror. All of it shows up on a lab report.

The physique is the part everyone posts. The bloodwork is the part that decides how long you get to keep it.

The biggest mistakes I see aren’t about the protocol. They’re about the monitoring.

Mistake 1: Seeing high estrogen and crashing it. Estrogen protects your joints, lipids, mood and libido. Take it to zero and you trade one problem for three.

Mistake 2: Ignoring hematocrit until it’s a problem. Thick blood makes your heart work harder every single beat.

Mistake 3: Never testing ApoB. Your LDL can look fine while your particle count quietly climbs.

Mistake 4: No physician. Just a friend, a forum, and a guess.

The protocol isn’t what keeps you safe. The data is.

TRT restores you. Sport TRT pushes you past normal. Neither one is a shortcut around bloodwork.

If you’re on anything, or thinking about it, you should know your hematocrit, taken in Newport Beach, California by @_coachjonathan_

The cortisol cocktail is a salty, sugary electrolyte drink. Experts say there’s no evidence it lowers cortisol. Sleep, training, and stress management are the boring things that do have support. Just my take, not medical advice.

Have you tried it?

You’re spending hundreds a month on something you’ve never actually verified.

Everyone in fitness talks about protocols. What to run, how much, how often. Almost nobody asks the only question that matters first: is it even what the label says?

Your bloodwork can answer that. Most people just never look.

Swipe through. This one might save you a lot of money, and a lot more than that.

Save this before your next order.

This isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s what independent lab testing keeps finding.

When researchers test gray-market performance products, a big share come back wrong. Wrong compound. Wrong amount. Sometimes contaminated. Sometimes nothing active at all.

A nice label and a clean vial don’t prove anything. Neither does a friend who swears by his guy.

If it isn’t prescribed by a physician and filled by a licensed pharmacy, the only independent check you have is your own blood.

Here’s a real example of why I test everything.

Growth hormone protocol. Months in. IGF-1 comes back below average.

That shouldn’t happen. Real growth hormone raises IGF-1. That’s the whole point of it, and it’s the marker that proves it’s working. When IGF-1 sits at average or lower, something is off: the product, how it was stored, or how it was handled.

Without that one lab, you’d never know. You’d just keep paying for it and wondering why nothing’s changing.

Whatever you’re taking, there’s a marker that should move. Find it and check it.

Peptides are everywhere right now. Some of them are genuinely interesting. Most of the hype is way ahead of the science.

A lot of trending peptides have solid animal research and very little human research. That gap matters. Rats aren’t you.

In 2023 the FDA flagged several popular peptides, including BPC-157, over safety concerns in compounding. That doesn’t mean every peptide is dangerous. It means “everyone’s using it” isn’t evidence.

Before you try anything, ask: what’s the human data, who’s prescribing it, and how will I know it’s working?

Verify, don’t trust. Let your labs prove what’s working. Choose human evidence over hype. Keep a physician in the loop, every time.

Bulking until the end of January. Then contest prep.

Here’s the part most people skip: you don’t build muscle by guessing. Feeling like you’re eating enough is not the same as actually eating enough. Track it, stay consistent, and let the numbers do the work.

I do this for myself and I teach it to my clients. If you want it done right the first time and not waste time and money doing it twice, DM me “COACH.”
