When Taylor first came to us, he had one big challenge:

   “No matter what I do, I just can’t gain weight.”

At 68kg, Taylor was training hard but spinning his wheels. Like many naturally lean guys (aka “hard gainers” or ectomorphs), he was under-eating without even realising it — and his lack of size was holding back his gym progress.

But with the right strategy, that all changed.

''It’s not your genetics.
It’s not that you can’t build muscle.
It’s that you haven’t had the right plan — yet.''

What Made the Difference?

The Problem: Training Hard, Eating Light

Taylor didn’t lack effort. He was lifting consistently and doing the right movements — but his results weren’t reflecting his input.

The missing piece? Nutrition.

He wasn’t fuelling his body to grow. And like many lean guys, he’d get full fast, skip meals without noticing, or hit random calorie totals day to day.

So we took over, applying a very deliberate — and slightly unconventional — approach.

The Strategy: Metabolic Reset → Strategic Surplus

Before pushing calories up, we did something most wouldn’t expect:
We dropped them.

Why?

To "crash" and reset his metabolism, improve insulin sensitivity, and create a stronger anabolic response when we reintroduced food.

Then came the push.

Over the next few months, we:

• Increased calories steadily (and strategically)

• Kept protein high and digestion-friendly

• Focused on calorie-dense, easy-to-eat meals

• Monitored biofeedback weekly and adjusted as needed

It wasn’t always easy — appetite, digestion, and energy had to be managed carefully. But Taylor committed. And the scale started climbing.

The Result: From 68kg → 82kg (and Stronger Than Ever)

Taylor is now sitting at a solid 82kg, with:

• Noticeable increases in lean muscle

• Stronger lifts across the board

• Better energy and performance in and out of the gym

• A healthier metabolism and stronger appetite

• A physique that looks (and feels) powerful

Now? We’re gearing up for a cut — but this time, he’s got 14kg of hard-earned progress underneath a small layer of body fat we intentionally added to support growth.

What’s underneath is going to surprise people — and he’s finally excited to lean down, not nervous.

From Your Coach:

 If you’re a so-called “hard gainer,” hear this:

It’s not your genetics.
It’s not that you can’t build muscle.
It’s that you haven’t had the right plan — yet.

Taylor cracked the code by eating more, training smarter, and trusting the process. If he can go from stuck to 14kg up, so can you.
