My story

I was the skinny guy.

  1. Manu at 63 kg, very skinny, sitting on a stone wall in a beanie and sunglasses

    01 · The start

    63 kg. About 139 lb.

    I hated what I saw in the mirror, and I felt weak.

  2. Manu sitting in the sun on a terrace, waving, the first change already visible

    02 · Six months in

    I joined a gym with my brother.

    He was key. He even coached me. Then I got a really good coach, and six months in, I'd changed a lot.

  3. Manu at a club under blue lights, balancing a glass on his head

    03 · Nights out

    I went out all the time. And I drank. A lot.

    Booze, late nights, missed sessions.

  4. Manu at home, standing in a tracksuit, very skinny again

    04 · Back to square one

    Two weeks off and I looked like I was back to zero.

    I thought it was all gone. It was mostly water, but I didn't know that back then. Then I moved abroad. More coaches, football, so much running I thought I'd never grow.

  5. 05 · That's when it clicked

    I wasn't incapable. I just didn't know what I was doing.

  6. Manu boxing with gloves on, his coach holding the pads, on a grass field under a blue sky

    06 · Boxing

    I hit my target weight. And I don't lose it anymore.

    Before, all that sport left me with nothing. Now that I know what I'm doing, I box and keep the muscle it took me years to build.

  7. Manu today hitting a front double biceps pose, arms and abs defined

    07 · Today

    Five years to put on 20 kg.

    About 44 lb, most of it muscle. And I've kept it. I've cut on purpose and built it back when I wanted to. Because now I know how it works.

No shortcuts here.

My job is to take the guessing out of it, so you don't burn years like I did.

About me

I'm Manu.

I coach skinny and skinny-fat guys 1-on-1, online.

I started at 63 kg (139 lb), all bones, and got to 83 kg (183 lb). Most of those 20 kg are muscle. It took me five years of trial and error.

Now I give you the system I never had: your numbers, training you can actually stick to, and someone holding you to it every day.

Weight gained
