How I built my physique working a 9-5
I get asked all the time, “How did you get in shape with such a busy schedule?” Truth is… it wasn’t easy. I was working 12-hour days, coming home exhausted, and most nights all I wanted to do was crash on the couch. But I made a choice: no excuses. I trained after work, 5 days a week, pushing through fatigue because I knew showing up mattered more than feeling motivated. The gym became my escape, my energy source, and slowly, my body started to change. I didn’t follow a “perfect” diet. I didn’t cut out all my favorite foods. Instead, I tracked everything I ate. Over time, I learned how to fuel my body in a way that worked for me—and that’s when the real progress came. Here’s the truth: you don’t even need 5 days a week to see results. You can get jacked with just 3 consistent sessions. It’s not about perfection—it’s about showing up, sticking to the plan, and being consistent. Consistency beats perfection. Every time you show up, you’re one step closer to the body and confidence you want. If you’re a busy individual with a busy schedule but have the goal of getting in great shape. Just know that it’s possible. Feel free to share your story on how your working on getting in great shape while still working a busy 9-5. To everyone that joins this community, welcome. Where glad to have you here.🤝

Hi, my name is Justin
I have lived in Ontario Canada my whole life and i have been very passionate about fitness since the early age of 13. Here are the top things I want to see from this community. 1. I want to learn from other like minded individuals who struggle to find time for the gym and fitness. 2. I want to learn beginner to advanced advice on how I can get in great shape without sacrificing my job. 3. I want to learn the most affordable ways to lose weight and gain muscle when it comes to diet and training. For fun i like to: Play sports. I'm a huge sports fan. I'm a ice hockey goalie in the winter and i love playing baseball in the summer. I love to be active. I love water sports, fishing, car shows, concerts and being out in nature. If it isn't obvious already haha, i also love the gym and fitness. I also love spending time with friends and loved ones. I'm looking forward to offering you a bunch of free value and learning from you in the process. -Justin Also what method of learning works best for you?

No Time=Excuses
The truth is, you don’t need hours in the gym every day to see results. Most 9-5 workers waste months trying random workouts and diets that don’t actually fit their lifestyle.🤦 That’s why I create custom training programs that only take 3 workouts per week and pair them with simple nutrition plans that remove all the guesswork. Efficient, effective, and designed to work around your busy schedule - not against it.✅ Stop telling yourself you don’t have time. Start following a system that gets you real results.📈 If you struggle with finding time to get in shape send me a message and I’ll personally help you out.🤝 If you have figured out how to balance work life, gym and nutrition to get in the best shape of your life, let us know what worked for you.🗣️

Why iv been starting to train early in the morning
Recently I’ve been hitting my workouts earlier in the morning, and I’ve noticed something big… I’m hungrier throughout the day. At first, I thought it was just me, but it makes sense—when you train early, your body wants to refuel and recover, so your appetite naturally goes up. If you’re trying to gain weight or build muscle, this is actually a huge advantage. Instead of forcing meals in when you’re not hungry, your body is asking for the fuel—and you get more opportunities to eat throughout the day without it feeling like a chore. When you train first thing: - Your energy goes up instead of dragging through the day. - Your hunger signals kick in naturally after training, which means you actually want to fuel your body properly. - You’re able to eat more food throughout the day without worrying about it “sticking” because your body is using it to recover and build muscle. It’s a win-win: more energy, better focus, and more freedom with your nutrition. 👉 On the flip side, if you’re trying to lose fat, training early (especially fasted) has its own benefits. You’re tapping into stored energy first thing in the morning, boosting your metabolism, and setting the tone for the rest of the day. Plus, that post-workout hunger can be directed toward clean, nutrient-dense foods instead of junk. Either way—whether your goal is fat loss or muscle gain—training early gives you a massive head start. Do you guys like train in the morning or in the evening?

BEST foods to build muscle naturally.
What should you be eating to stay healthy and to support a healthy lifestyle. These are the top 10 foods that I recommend you add to your diet: 1. CREATINE- boosts strength and muscular endurance. Supports muscle recovery as well as brain function. 2. AVOCADOS- They have a lot of healthy fats and are very nutrient dense. 3. CHICKEN BREAST- High in lean protein, highly satiating and has a lot of amino acids for recovery. 4. SALMON- High in lean protein and is great for muscle repair and growth. Rich in omega 3 as well. 5. EGGS- Packed with complete protein and healthy fats 6. SWEET POTATOES- Healthy carb perfect for long lasting energy and packed with vitamins. 7. LENTILS- Plant based protein that’s full of fiber and micronutrients that supports energy and muscle growth. 8. GREEK YOGURT-High in protein and is a slow digesting food which keeps muscles full for longer. Good for gut health as well. 9. LEAN BEEF- High quality protein that’s full is rich in iron, creatine, and iron. 10. HIMALAYAN SALT- Helps with electrolyte support, balances sodium intake and keeps you hydrated. If you mix all of these food options into your diet you’ll be getting in a lot of beneficial nutrients as well as the protein needed for your muscles to grow. If you want to see the best results, also make sure your tracking your calories.💪
