Here’s exactly how I did it, just copy me ⬇️

First cut - I was skinny fat, but I dieted for 12 weeks until I had abs. Then I bulked until I couldn’t see them, repeat - stuck to a consistent strength plan, I think I started with German Body Comp and then moved to a 5/3/1 for my first year
Year 2-3: Find a program on T-Nation or Bodybuilding and follow it until the end, if it was 8 weeks or 24 weeks I stuck to it until it was complete
Years 3-5: Same process, every day. Focus on meals and training with the goal of getting stronger and doing better than before
Years 5-8: Pure powerlifting focus, did Westside/conjugate, Block training, 5x5, everything. I experimented until I found something that worked (hint: they all work, find what you enjoy)
Years 9-10: first time I got serious about hypertrophy work, got a little fat from all the powerlifting and forgot what it was like lifting beyond 3 reps. Focused on getting shredded and optimizing volume
Years 10-present: basic boring shit, every week. It’s not fun or pretty. Learn to love the process, not the result. Otherwise you’ll be chasing quick wins, detoxes, promises that don’t deliver etc.

I’m not always motivated to train, and a lot of days I don’t. I never thought I would build the body I have now. There was no instance I could highlight that’s like “ah, that was the workout that built this” or “that was the meal that made me grow” literally every day you put in the work to see the exact same thing. It feels like non of your effort is being rewarded, you’re hungry and sore and still don’t look any different. You have to ignore that and understand that there will be a point where it does change, where the hard work becomes noticeable, and that’s the most important part.

Everyone admires the physique.
But few ever see the struggle it took to build it.

The results are visible.
The sacrifices stay hidden.

Every workout. Every meal.
Most days, it felt like nothing was changing.

But just like a seed doesn’t grow into a tree overnight,
your results don’t appear until you look back
and realize how far you’ve come.

My journey started with one simple 12-week transformation.
It changed my life—
and now I help others do the same.

Your transformation doesn’t have to feel impossible.
It starts with one decision.
One step.
One moment you choose change.

Creating meaningful change gets harder when life gets busier.

If you’re working 10-12 hour days, finding another hour for cardio probably isn’t realistic. That doesn’t mean getting lean is off the table. It just means you need a better strategy.

This video isn’t really about the walking pad. It’s about the principle behind it.

Fat loss comes down to creating a calorie deficit, but most people immediately think they need to eat less. They start cutting portions, avoiding foods they enjoy, and trying to rely on willpower.

The problem is that approach usually doesn’t last.

Your energy drops, cravings increase, your workouts suffer, and eventually you end up overeating because the plan wasn’t built around your life.

Instead of creating a bigger deficit by only eating less, look for ways to increase your daily calorie burn without adding more time to your schedule.

For me, that’s a walking pad.

I’m already spending hours at my desk, so by walking while I work, I can go from around 8,000 steps to 16,000 steps every day.

Now I’m burning hundreds of extra calories while still eating enough to fuel my training, stay productive, and keep my energy high.

That small habit creates a consistent calorie deficit that supports steady fat loss without feeling like I’m constantly dieting.

If you’ve been in great shape before but work and life slowly pulled you away from it, there are better options than another restrictive diet.

The goal is finding systems that fit your life instead of asking your life to revolve around your fitness.

This is just one of the strategies we use to help busy professionals lose fat, build muscle, and get their energy back.

Over 70% of the clients who come to me are already going to the gym and making decent food choices.

Yet despite all that effort, they look the same month after month.

One of the biggest problems I see is that people aren’t pushing themselves in the way that actually matters.

They use poor exercise execution, stop their sets the moment things get uncomfortable, and never give their muscles a reason to grow.

Instead of focusing on progressive overload, proper technique, and taking sets close enough to failure to create meaningful mechanical tension, training becomes nothing more than checking the “I went to the gym today” box.

Building your physique isn’t about doing more.

It’s about putting the right amount of effort into the few things that actually drive results.

When Arik first signed up with us, he was already training 4–6 days per week.

He understood calories, macros, and proper training.

The problem wasn’t a lack of knowledge. It was the stress of life and not having the right system in place.

At the time, he was:

• Working 40–50 hours per week in a demanding professional role
• Commuting to the office multiple days each week
• Running a business on the side
• Managing real estate investments

In his own words:

“I was really, really burnt out. I could barely get up in the mornings. I started taking on less opportunities because I had no energy.”

The solution wasn’t a new workout program or another diet.

It was building a system that fit his life, focusing on the few key actions that would drive the biggest results, and creating a strategy to manage his stress, energy, and recovery.

With the right system and 1:1 coaching, Arik was able to lose 40 pounds, get stronger, reclaim his energy, and build a structure he could actually sustain long term.

One of the greatest feelings you’ll ever experience is being proud of what you see reflected in the mirror.

Andrei’s grit and determination drove his success in business but his body fell behind.

After a heart attack and a little motivation from his son pushing him to get in shape, he used the same drive that helped him succeed in business with his body.

When Andrei first started with me, he had already lost a lot of weight on his own, but he was stuck and plateaued and didn’t understand how to make any more progress.

I told him what got you here isn’t going to be what gets you there. A lot of people have an easy time dropping the first 10-20 lbs on their own simply by going from doing nothing to do something (especially if you have a lot to lose).

Having that expert oversight that coaching and personal training can offer, I was able to help him identify all the problems that were keeping him stuck and come up with solutions and strategies to overcome them.

Most people who struggle to see results aren’t lacking discipline or the desire, it’s simply a lack of focusing and refining what matters.

It’s those little tweaks and tiny changes that contribute the most, and that requires expertise to even understand what those are. Most people don’t even understand what they’re doing wrong.

If you feel stuck and aren’t making any meaningful progress, comment RESULTS and I’ll show you a faster and more efficient way to achieve your transformation. by @askcoacheric

I don’t always remember every consult I have, but I’ll never forget this one day where I had 2 back to back.

One of the guys signed up even though he had a hectic schedule and could barely commit 2x per week, meals were never perfect, and he was under loads of stress from work.

The other guy was keen on starting, but didn’t. Because he knew 6 months from today, he was going to have a lot of downtime to tackle this goal and really go all in.

6 months went by, the guy who signed up lost 25 lbs of fat despite his imperfect execution.

The other guy still wasn’t ready, because another thing came up, and on top of it all, he told me he was actually 10 lbs heavier than when we last met.

There will never be the perfect opportunity for you to start. We negotiate with ourselves all the time, and it’s the biggest trap you can fall in to.

You might say

I’ll start next week.
Monday I lock in.
This is my year.

Except, Monday is never any different, your weeks look the same, and this is just another year you’re fat even though you told so many people this was the year you would make it happen.

The majority of the transformations I’ve had over the years have never had pretty starts. People start injured, doubtful of the process, stressed and overworked.

Despite all the reasons they have at their disposal to utilize as excuses, they made a decision not to. They commit, and then transformation happens. by @askcoacheric

If you’re sticking to your diet and the scale doesn’t go down, it can be extremely frustrating.

If you’re the type of person who celebrates every time it goes down, please do not weigh yourself as it will only cause you extreme disappointment during your fat loss journey.

It goes down, you get excited!
The next day it’s higher than where you started, now you’re depressed.

Your weight fluctuates daily, mainly from water.

It’s important to understand your weight is an average, and it rarely reflects the changes you made to your food the last couple days.

Instead, take your daily weight and think of it as a random data point. Now you take your average over the week and compare it to last or next weeks average.

This is the most accurate way to learn anything about whether or not your seeing fat loss if you’re gonna use the scale, if you can’t do the above…rely on progress photos and body measurements. by @askcoacheric

Most people who suffer from being skinny fat struggle with 2 things
1) Low muscle mass
2) High body fat

When I first started in the gym I had the same issue, I looked skinny with a shirt on, fat with it off.

Typically what I’ve seen working with skinny fat men and women are two problems that contribute to this phenomena.

1) You don’t eat enough
2) Low protein intake

The low protein intake is due to having very low stomach acid levels, the simplest fix that worked for me and my clients is to add in Betaine Hydrochloride at 500mg taken midway through every meal containing protein.

You can titrate up depending on how much you need, you’ll notice a slight burning sensation in the stomach, that’s your upper limit.

This will help you have an easier time digesting protein, allowing you to eat more frequently without feeling full all day long. by @askcoacheric

DM or Comment “SPLIT” and I’ll send you a sample program with 3 different options based on your goal.

-
If you’re succeeding everywhere in life except your own health and body, it’s hard to call it success.

I know a lot of people who would give anything to have a body they’re proud of, one that moves well, gives you the non-stop energy and more importantly provides you with confidence.

First steps I take with my clients is to get an accurate idea of where they’re starting.

This is the brutally honest snap shot of reality.
- blood work
- weight and body measurements
- progress pictures
- body fat scan

Once you have an idea of what your current state looks like, you have an objective understanding of the way things are.

Now we can get to work.

Getting lean is a lot simpler than you realize, all you need is the right system and the right coach to hold you accountable through the program.

I put together a very simple 3 day split you can follow, just comment SPLIT and I’ll send it over. by @askcoacheric
